So here's the story...

Bought a samsung DLP 50in HDTV, one of the newest model, online for about $2500.
I gave them my debit card for the tv and they said that my maximum limit for debit transaction was only $400. So they told me to just get a cashier's check and give it to the delivery guys once they deliver the TV, cashier's check for $2400.

Sooo...
the delivery guys called me yesterday saying that they'll be at my house between 12 ~ 4pm. So i waited and they came at 6pm. and by this time i was pissed off.

after they unloaded the giant box with the tv in it, they gave me a paper to sign. so i signed it. then I offered them the cashier's check, and they said "it doesnt say anything about recieving a check" .

so then i thought, maybe I need to send them the cashier's check myself.
then i read the paper that i signed (after they left), and it says exactly:

"SHIPPER'S COD: 2400.00"

COD = Collect on delivery

So, im thinking to myself... Since the delivery guys came like 2 hours late and at the same time the tv seller charged me extra money, I will not do the good deed and just wait until they ask me for the check.

sounds like a plan?


CLIFF NOTE

1. bought a tv for 2500
2. supposed to give 2400 with cashier's check on delivery
3. they didnt accept the check

DAMN IT!!! i dont know how to link the site with the tv...

better linkage here THE TV

there's no way they're going to forget about that. You'll be getting a call shortly.

you suck at the linkage. :p

anyway, delivery guys are often affiliated with delivery companies and do multiple deliveries for multiple retailers. chances are they'll get a beating from the online retailer who sold it to you. you'll have to give the money in eventually, or they'll charge you.

but until then, enjoy the very cheap TV :)

i wish people would just put *SCAM* in their titles. The best deal ever is you didn't pay for your tv?

Call them up and tell them their mistake. Maybe you'll get a reward. Ah, who am I kidding...?

If you were planning to steal a Samsung DLP, you should at least have gotten this year's -8 series with true 1080 HD resolution and the newer TI chip. n00b.

That's a nice looking TV. I was over a friends place this past weekend, and I must say their 50inch widescreen Plasma TV was off the Wall. (Some Panasonic Plasma, model unknown)

You're right, the delivery company should eat $2400 for that outrage.

:confused:

Sure, you can be a liar and thief. Just fix it yourself and quit playing 15 yr old:roll:
