Anyway, I did never ever have such a thrilling - and funny, I am not angry! - buying experience. And that's from someone who imported a C860 Zauraus direct from Japan...and did not understand a word while doing so...

ah, I just got one of those strange PDF "prealert" things too.

At least things are moving

.

but it's going to take 6 days?

Oh well... give me time to prepare some content I s'pose

They forgot to ship it with my company name. Just my name, so it will probably get returned when they cannot find my name on the door. Will have to get them to change the details tomorrow, as UPS does not allow the recipient to change such information due to security issues. That is a total pain. Tried it before with a laptop from Dell, and everyone ended up very confused about where to send it, and it ended up the wrong place.

You are absolutely right.

Sorry my brain is frazzled from my horrible underground journey home.

Same here, my number isnt in the UPS system yet. - Also how many entries items are listed in the pdf invoice? I see three in mine! I had the same spam stuff written on mine too.

Pitchfork · 07-13-2006, 02:35 PM

Fantastic how someone on holiday can send so many Iliads. That is efficiency

Maybe make the email adresses disappear, so that they will not be bombarded with email sent from viruses using web-browser caches or by spammers harvesting web sites?!

Further inspection of the WISMO site reveals it is managed by arbato services:

Just checked and my number isn't in the system yet either.

Still, progress is progress, mustn't grumble

Nah. People associated with Microsoft Freight deserve mail bombing.

Stuart Young · 07-13-2006, 02:40 PM

Just noticed my delivery date too the 19th :-( I'm in London.

Riocaz · 07-13-2006, 03:03 PM

Still no tracking number.
