After being alerted to the new Oasis by a post on MobileRead the day of the announcement, I ordered that same morning. Estimated delivery date is 10/31.

Today I cancelled my previous order because I found out that Amazon has a ¥4000 discount code for paid prime members. I joined prime for a month, only ¥400 here, and reordered an 8GB for a savings of about $32. The new order has the same delivery date Oct. 31 to Nov. 3. 32GB models are backordered until 2nd half of Nov. Last edited by imabuddha; 10-19-2017 at 05:44 AM. |

Also, yesterday I received the $35 credit for my PW trade-in plus a $20 bonus toward a new Kindle. I didn't want to cancel my order, fearing an even later delivery date, so I was planning to call CS for help. But first I tried editing my order to change my payment options, and I was able to apply both the $35 and the $20 credit. |

OH, but what a great opportunity!
A reason to buy a new purse if it doesn't fit in the current one. And if getting a new purse, you have to have new shoes to match. And then .... just to be sure everything is still coordinated. Look out Neiman Marcus (or Saks, or ...), here she comes! |

The only term I can think of for a set pattern of inter-dependent purchasing is "snowball" effect.
The corporate marketing people who set up these paths to trigger multiple purchases probably have a better name for it. But it can be more than a bit dull, trying to go through life without any attempts at humor. |

My delivery date for the 32 GB with Special Offers is Oct 31.
Around the time the 2nd PW came out I swore to myself that I would skip the next Kindle release because my PW was good enough; then they came out with the Voyage and it was thinner and lighter and just different enough that I bought one. And I really liked my Voyage and I told myself I would skip the next Kindle release because my Voyage was great. Then they came out with the Oasis and it was even thinner and lighter than the Voyage so I ordered one and I really liked it. I told myself I would skip the next Kindle release and stick with my Oasis. And then they came out with an Oasis that has more screen real estate and supposedly better battery life without the stupid cover, so of course I bought one.

Ordered 32gb with 4G, estimated delivery Nov 15. But I'm saving it for Dec 25.
Anyone want my Kobo Aura One? ETA: My kobo is now in the mail, and no longer available. Last edited by Pjama; 10-20-2017 at 06:06 PM. |
