FFAAAACCCKKK!!!! I need to buy some prep books and english books for class and they are taking forever!! If they know it's this buggy why don't they add a facking "cancel" button? :(

Thanks for the info. :beer:

EDIT: I see one of my orders is at "packaging" status. Does this mean the order went through or is this BS? I just had one of my other orders canceled for no apparant reason. :confused::|

He does have two business days to confirm, I believe. Meaning if you order on a Thursday you might have to wait until Monday.

This is why half.com sucks. Two business days?

Why won't they add a cancel button??

depends on when i confirm. i usually don't check that email until later that day, so if it comes anytime before 8pm that day, i confirm and then ship the next morning. half.com "requires" shipping the next business day.
