Moan... UBID did this to me!

Do auctions sites operate under any rules
of law? After "winning" a bid on 5/30,
I got this notice today:

> In regards to your uBid order, in which a No Longer
Available. do
> not use. was won, I regret to inform you that due to a warehouse

Can auctions freely list items for sale that they don't
have? Do they fill orders based on whether they liked
the bid or not? Thanks!
 
Phlashphire - No I haven't gotten mine either....Probably a scam. I signed up about a month ago. Nothing.

Zemel - No Never got it. Forgot all about it. At least you got the brocheres. I got jack crap from them.

Beo - I didn't get the mags, but then again, I never really expected to. There is free and then there is free with a catch.

Did anyone ever get there Scream 3 CD? 😛 I hurt I never received that one...lol....Still it did have Creed on it. Not that I couldn't download it from Napster.

Oh you guys check out Wrapster. Anybody know more on this? All I know is its within Napster. You download this program that will unwrap these gif files, and other types of program files from mp3 format to whatever it's supposed to be. It will be under a 32K sample rate. After that search for Wrapster. They should show up. Pretty Underground stuff. The usual. If anybody has more info, pipe up...Thanks guys...🙂
 
Crazyc is having run-ins with Johnny Law and the Mod Squad. 😛

Peggopanic - I signed up about 2 weeks before the post. Still nothing. People say are starting to get theirs....Maybe it will show up shortly. Who knows. Hope we are 2 of the lucky ones.

 
heh, mebbe crazyjake...at least i already know that i'm one of this "lucky two" hehe. =) i'm sure everyone who signed up on time will get it sooner or later. [hence, later]
 
AAAAGGGGG.....Staples called this morning said They didn't have anymore of the 50 pack of CDR's I purchased with the $25 off $50 coupon.....Damn....So if anyone has a good deal going for some CDR's I need some now. Thanks.
 
Got the intel freecam,also the Intel vc820+128meg rdram (711-45),the 840c (estamp),finally mailed in the 20 rebates sitting here.

Off topic:


I have never used one of the palm devices... Could someone tell me if they are good for anything else.. other than scheduling and address type things? Can you email with them? Also, how do you 'type' with it? im not exactly sure how the data entry thing works.

Thanks

Strange thing happened today.. i went to staples.com and tried to login but didn't accept password. Since my account is kinda old, i figured some of the info got lost or something after their site facelift. So i tried to make a new account. No go, "this username already exists". So my account must still be there. Then i decided.. ok, phone order. When i called up, i told the csr about my problem and she put me on hold for 5-10 minutes. Then i was transferred to another csr who was also no help. I requested a phone order, but he said, now get this "I CAN'T DO THAT." WTF?! When i asked y, he told me there was a remark on my accnt that stated "do not accept phone orders". What the heck is goin' on? He said i could only make an online order. Has anyone else had this happen?
