their shipping is quick they have Second Day Air Etc.
i ordered yesterday and it shipped after 4 hours.

but they don't give out tracking number thats what piss's me off.

 

[iamme]

F@(*$@!!!!!!!

I just called PCMall, and it's out of stock. My credit card was declined for some odd ball reason (even though I am sure it should have went through), and now they say I'm out of luck. Their online inventory is definitely not real-time.

Well, for those of you who got in, contrats

As for me :|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|


Anyone buy 2, wanna sell one to me? As a thanks for the great deal?

 

[Rally1]

dang, i was kidding! but maybe it is out of stock... grrr he who hesitates.....

 

[iamme]

*sigh* already popping up on eBay

 

[Rally1]

scary, i call PCMall and tell the guy i ordered something and wanted to see if it was in stock... he says it's back ordered, I say I havent told you what it is yet?!

but then i gave him my order # and yes they are back ordered (ie i doubt they will get any more..)

"Buyer will pay a flat $85.00 shipping and handling charge" That's how.

 

[Rally1]

i tried the ecost way, but i thinks it's same stock, but worth a shot, thanks if it works! did the guy at PCmall say it would?

 

[iamme]

<< i tried the ecost way, but i thinks it's same stock, but worth a shot, thanks if it works! did the guy at PCmall say it would? >>



The guy at PCMall told me they do share the same stock. But, like you said, it's worth a shot

WTF, now eCost is showing 50 in stock again this doesn't look promising.

 

[Rally1]

isn't that a different part # too?

 

[sony145]

this one is in stock.

 

[iamme]

<< this one is in stock. >>



I called and they said it's not. They told me their online inventory is not real time

 

[Rally1]

it says it is, but it's not I ordered one, and it still says 68, it's said 68 since yesterday. Their stock is not live. I then called PCMall and they said it was backordered.
Wish there was still a resellerrating.com I think i'd have something to post...

 

[sony145]

search for "Compaq EVO N400C".

one of em is in stock.

i don't know which one but one is in stock.

i called like 10 mins ago its either the 128ram 20GB $816 or 256ram with 30GB $849

 

[LeaDxPainT]

2 Seconds away from clicking the plce order button, I'm going for the 128mb of ram version b/c the other one seemed to be out of stock or back ordered by the way this thread is going. I calll them up and the guy told me they had the 128mb one in stock, never asked aobut the other one though...dont ask me why. Will post a small review of my own when i recieve this..hopefully by wednesday.


ok 2 seconds went by:

Subtotal: $816.99
UPS 2nd Day Air Shipping: $27.09
Sales Tax: $0.00

TOTAL: $844.08

 

[Rally1]

when did you order?

and

which one did you order?

I ordered the 256MB one from PCMall @ 1PM Sunday
and another 256MB one from eCost @ 1:30 PM

neither have moved from pending..... i think both places pull from the same stock, and they are out, I am tempted to get the 128MB if it is in stock, but knowing my luck i'll end up with 3 laptops, or none, when all i want is one...

I ordered:
Line Item Information:
Item Number: 968498
Description: Evo N400c Notebook Intel® Pentium® III processor 700MHz,
128MB SDRAM, 20GB SMART Hard Drive, 56K V.90 Modem + 10/100 NIC Combo,
Point Stick, 12.1" CTFT XGA, Microsoft Windows 98 SE

three were 2 product numbers for the 128mb/20gig i chose this one b/c it still had a number next to the stock window. My order still says in warehouse, so don't know what is going on. I realy want this laptop for college this year. Please post if they have sent your Laptops. Thanks

 

[Rally1]

got this for my ecost orders:

Thank you for your recent order. E**** has been cancelled per your request. The Compaq N400C on Order #E***** is currently backordered at this time. We currently do not have an estimated time of arrival to our warehouse.


The thing that gets me is i ordered these from their "countdown page" which of course showed they were in stock. Bad business.

I go look on their site now.... (ecost) they now show 15 of the 128MB ones left.... 10 mins ago they showed 1, and I can bet they are backordered too.
In my book backordered=out of stock , you cant sell stuff you dont have/or cant get.

these guys suck

 

[LeaDxPainT]

Sweet, mine has been shipped UPS and it has left the warehouse and is on route to me. I knew it was a good idea to jump for the 128/20.

Oh yeah and i ordered from PCmall, when i called they said theiy were a macmall rep. wierd but anyway.

 

[PeterPan76]

My order was shipped as well.
Weird I order the laptop on Sunday at 7pm, and I still got it. I wasn't dying for it, so I just took a chance. Remember ebay are selling this for 700-800 bucks.

I got the 256 megs version. With no floppy and no CD-ROm

Which sucks nuts.

 

[Rally1]

I ended up getting one shipped to me (out of 4 orders?!)

It will be the 128MB one with 20GB.

So I lost 128MB in the deal, but I have a 64MB stick anyway.

For the record, I think you guys will be getting 20GB HDs even with the 256MB one.

I still think thier system sucks. But they do respond to emails pretty quick (4-5 hours).
