grapico Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 not sure yet but I ordered one and will let you know if i get that.
htpc_guy Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 not sure yet but I ordered one and will let you know if i get that. Mine says the same thing...
biomajor Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 I think it means that they haven't been shipped out at all yet, so the odds are slim that you will get it by the 29th. It says they are in stock so it's just a delay
forsberg Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 Yeah, I get that too. It orginally said Expected Delivery: 11/29/2005 by Staples Courier.
shawntrend Posted November 27, 2005 Author Posted November 27, 2005 Just hope this doesn't turn into another "not availible" Had that problem last X-mas after they kept delaying my shipment on some DVD's
grapico Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 same thing with my order, have 4 things coming though. just hope its not too late for the rebate once we get it, how does that work.
forsberg Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 same thing with my order, have 4 things coming though. just hope its not too late for the rebate once we get it, how does that work.With Staples you can submit it online without receiving the merch. https://www.stapleseasyrebates.com/img/staples/paperless/pages/Landing.html
grapico Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 Well I tried to submit the rebate right when I bought it, but then it came up for only $40, instead of $80, did anybody get this, or should I go try again, I was just going to wait until I got the merchandise but with this delay it looks like it might come too late for the rebate.
shawntrend Posted November 27, 2005 Author Posted November 27, 2005 Did you enter the discount code grapico ???$119.98 Reg Price- $10.04 Instant savings- $40.00 Easy rebate- $40.00 Coupon savings (Enter coupon 67964 at checkout)= $29.94 Final Price Offer Expires 11/25/05While Supplies LastLimit 1 per customer Did you put in the code 67964 @ checkout??That is the other $40
grapico Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 thats the ticket, thanks, i was tired as hell from shopping friday afternoon so probably overlooked it. edit: actually, since i put it in, is there anyway to do it now? or am i screwed, if i am, then since they haven't shipped can i cancel that part of my order?
coasternut Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 I ordered the same hard drive and somehow the coupon code did not process. I emailed customer service with the code and an explanation, and they promised me to refund the $40 to my credit card. You might try doing the same thing.

You might try doing the same thing.alright sounds good, will report back how it goes. I told them if they could not do it then to please cancel the hard drive portion of my order since its delayed shipping anyhow. Of course I would not have ordered it if not for that price b/c several other stores had it cheaper or same price.
grapico Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 Emailed them and they will not take it off, bummer, they said either refuse shipment or get it and they will arrange for pick up, they won't even cancel the order. I can't even refuse shipment b/c the ups and fedex people always just leave it anyway. Honestly since it hasn't shipped I don't see what the big deal is, I ordered the thing at 6:30am EST on friday 30 minutes after the deal went online. I'm sure they know thats the only reason I placed the 100 dollar order in the first place. I thought there was some thing now with the FTC that the store had to honor it? Not happy.
forcedtoregister Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 Click on "track this shipment" and then your UPS tracking number. My laminator order with a delivery date of 11/30/2005 has "billing informaiton recieved" which means it has been boxed, labeled, and is preparing to be transported to UPS... YAY!!! My flash drive and hard drive order don't show anything (actually it says that it was shipped 01/01/1970)... BOO!!! P.S. I do not have the "problems with your order" band.
grapico Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 My flash drive and hard drive order don't show anything (actually it says that it was shipped 01/01/1970)... BOO!!! sweet maybe you got one of those usb time machines. almost as hot as the xbox 360.
grapico Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 okay uhhh, not sure what is wrong with these guys at staples, but clicked on my order and it has a shipping number, but they didn't even put my discs in there that i paid for! much less on top of that not crediting me with the 40 dollar coupon. i better not have to pay to ship this back.

Not happy.Bummer...perhaps try calling a customer service rep and telling them you had entered the coupon code and you thought it had been applied because there was no error message. But for some reason the code didn't apply (this actually happened to me...had to re-enter like 30 times before some of the codes took).

My laminator order with a delivery date of 11/30/2005 has "billing informaiton recieved" which means it has been boxed, labeled, and is preparing to be transported to UPS... YAY!!! Yeah I have a tracking number for the laminator, but I really hope the others get sent! Especially the DVD burner since that was suppose to be for my brother.
forsberg Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 Strange...today got all my items at work even though only the laminator has a "track" link.
tomatoface Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 My order also said shipment delayed, but it arrived today anyway...weird..faster shipping than i normally wouldve thought, yet they said it was delayed....
shawntrend Posted November 29, 2005 Author Posted November 29, 2005 Status changed to shipped w\ tracking # 11/29
grapico Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 mine shipped, still gonna call customer service though about my 40 bucks.
grapico Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 well after sending a few emails staples finally came through, credited me the 40! thought I wasn't going to get it, all my stuff has arrived since Tuesday by the way :)
