I am very unhappy with Bookeen. They charged my CC the day after I placed my order (Dec 5) when the projected ship date was Dec 14 - 18 and all companies I've worked with in the past charged the CC when they were ready to ship. Now that ship date has passed and from what I see on this forum they are nowhere near my order (71xx) and might have stopped shipping, and they don't respond to e-mails requesting more information. I also note that they have no projected ship dates on the web page anymore so someone ordering today would be expecting their order to ship within a couple days. Of course the lack of this notice might mean they have a good supply in stock and can ship, but somehow I doubt that. The problem I have with them charging the CC before shipping is that the CC bill will come due before I receive the Cybook and I won't pay for something I have not received and will have to dispute the charge with my CC bank before the due date. I really want the Cybook so I hope that they will ship soon. I would suggest that after this shipping crunch is over that they change their web page to show 1) projected ship date, 2) actual ship date, 3) FedEx tracking number, on the order detail page for each order. As it is now if the FedEx e-mail gets lost in cyberspace the recipient has no way to know if the order was shipped and no way to check on it. They leave much to desire in keeping customers informed.
