Dell and the waiting game...

So I ordered an 1800FP on thursday's smokin hot deal.. now the inevitable seemingly endless wait. I always feel like it takes forever from those guys. Only bad side about dealing with newegg so much, I'm spoiled with quick shipping times. Oh well, I suppose its worth the wait this time.
 
Figures not only you got on the deal, they probally got to find a way to ship a lot of these units... first in, first out...
 
In November I ordered a 17" from them and it was at my door the very next morning. About a month ago I ordered the 18" as you did and it took 5 days from order to delivery. It had to come from Texas, not too bad of a wait. It is worth it as I love mine. Hopefully you will get it soon.


 
I placed the order on thursday, estimated ship date was the 12th. I mean I do expect them to get hammered for that deal. I can't remember, do they send an email w/ tracking number once it ships or is it gonna magically appear on my doorstep? I can't remember how it worked when I had to order RAM from them for the systems here at work.
 
You guys think you are having a hard time?? I ordered the DRU-500A from them in first week of October and got in the first week in December. And this was after a lot of calling and bickering to the CSR abou the late order. They ship computers in a flash but anything else, well, order at your own risk.
 
What's odd is that I ordered 2 1800FP monitors, one a couple hours after the other, and the one I ordered SECOND arrived first. 😕

What bothers me more is that I have NEVER gotten up to date tracking info on Dell's site. Even the monitor that was already delivered doesn't have ANY tracking info on the site..just says "in transit to local carrier"

Pff.
 
I ordered on Thursday as well and it said the estimated ship date was on the 12th but I received it this morning on the 10th. 🙂
 
Lucky guy. I finally tricked Dell's website into displaying some info and giving my tracking number. Not up to date as far as the package's location, but thats typical for UPS. Coming from TX tho. I love how Dell's site kept telling me that there were no order numbers tied to my customer number.
