Well I guess they'd honor it since it's in their system now.
One order says "Please Call - PayPal payment verification is pending. Your order will be processed shortly." (which is the one I tried with national shipping and an international PayPal address -- didn't work) and one says "Please Call - This order is on hold, pending customer response. Please call 1.800.888.4437 to expedite your order processing." (which is the one I tried with international shipping but which turned out to be per wire only). Obviously, there is no option to transfer an order to another customer. And calling their hotline... well let's say I called them before today and they didn't seem to be the most competent to me. |

I got in early, order at the wharehouse. Charge already posted on credit card. Hope it ships. Been looking at the Sony reader for a WHILE. Couldn't bring myself to buy at $299, but $99 was an offer I couldn't refuse. Thanks guys for posting the deal.

Alexander Turcic: And if you just let them send you at least one of the two devices you didn't want? I would love to buy it from you for US$ 150 (excl. Shipping of course). So you would have 50 bucks for your work.
BTW: They now want US$ 329.99... Best Regards Fabian Last edited by tapf!; 07-04-2007 at 01:41 PM. |

Hi Fabian,
I am sorry, I already passed the two orders to two other guys who just messaged me earlier. |

The problem is that Paris Hilton doesn't need a Reader in order to stare vacantly. It could be anything. (Also: Remember how Tarzan learned to read? I'm reminded of Paris Hilton...you know, insects crawling across a page.....[maniacal laughter]): hahahahahaahahahahahahaahah!!! Don |

I purchased 4 units at the $99 thru tigerdirect on my American Express and my order states:

Trust me, you did the right thing. That's why you're still married and I'm divorced. (I'm very serious about my comments here.) Don |
