Panasonic has not reached the 21st century

"Parts and accessories may be ordered over the Internet Monday thru Saturday 6:00 am to 1:00 am EST. This site is currently available for Parts Pricing only. Please return during our normal business hours to place an order."

W T F ?

LMAO

 

[YOyoYOhowsDAjello]

wow... I wouldn't expect that from a huge company

 

[DaiShan]

Wait, their site won't accept the order and then just have it on hold until monday when they can process it? I thought at first you were complaining that no one was there after 1 am on a saturday night and was about to throw down lol.

yeah, that's pretty lame...

 

[Sukhoi]

Correct, it wouldn't let me input the order. I have to go back on Monday and redo it.

I guess they don't want a price mistake getting out of hand? I find it hard to believe that they couuld have an online ordering system and not have it able to take orders unattended on the weekends.

you can buy stuff STRAIGHT from panasonic?? 😕

i thought you needed a retailer

 

[Sukhoi]

I'm just buying a replacement foil and blades for my razor. I don't think you can buy complete products directly from Panasonic.

My school's online registration system is only open 8am-7pm it pisses us all off to no end.

You think that's bad?

My school's registration system opens at 6AM. Classes tend to be very limited, which means that EVERYONE (or at least all the freshmen and lots of sophmores) have to get up at 5AM, fill out the info, and hit the Register button at 6. Of course, this tends to crash the servers.

I'm glad I transferred here as a junior.

they could just be paranoid about hackers or something and don't want their ecommerce stuff running when there's no admin overseeing it.

I'd imagine that 99.9% of their sales are made through third parties anyways (best buy, circuit city, etc).
