Thanks! I'm glad I found this community!
Well, I just spoke w/ Fry's.com. Here is the deal: apparently the credit card info they took during my on-line order is STRICTLY for pick-up ID and product holding at the local store purposes, only. The rep I talked to said I could place the order with HER over the phone and she can have it delivered to me. However, it's a "back order" item (how long THAT is, she couldn't say)...even though they have NINE of them at the store. The shipping is free, which is good. I think it's going to cost me pretty much the same way, drive down there to pick up, get it all over with or wait God knows how long before they actually get it in the distribution center to ship out (after which would take 3-5 days via FedEx). The order on-line doesn't even need to be "cancelled" as it doesn't even do anything unless I actually pick it up no later than the store closing on the 6th. So the order over-the phone WILL result in a receipt (by email I'm told) with today's date on it. Afterward, the order fizzes out to nothingness. I may have to bite this and take the 45 minute drive.
