I found a good deal on this camera from Dell and was able to get it for $304 after all was said and done about $100 less than most other places, that fine and cool, so I want to get it in time for the up coming 3 day weekend so I pay for the next day shipping at an additional $12, no biggie there either.

I check the order status today (ordered last night) and it says Estimated Ship Date: 9/13/05!!! WTF!?!?!??! No where at all did it ever say that it was not available for immediate shipment!!!! Screw you Dell!!


Gaaaahhhhhhhh!







So I called them and they said "It's not a Dell product, blah blah blah" and I got them to refund me the shipping cost and they're still going to give me next day shipping once it's available.


Man I was really looking forward to getting this camera too :(


Cliffs:

Dell sucks.

The End.

Hey, at least you got your problem sorta fixed. A lot of people get screwed royally by being passed from CSR to CSR.

Yeah, but.....






I want the camera is all :(

Is disappointing to have to wait so long.

At least they were willing to work with me.

motion for ban. Your value as a human being and poster to this forum have dwindled into the unquantifiable.

Guess it's my turn to TPAD then.


I thought that's what they generically put for all their items, sort of them doing a CYA.
