    DAMN...thats utter BS man....I ordered July 1. You can call HP and tell them that your "friends" (us on this forum) ordered days after you, and ours got shipped first....see what they can compensate you with.

    Yeah. I have no clue why HP hate me so much. I'm sending that one back anyway, but still...first they delayed it, then promised 2-day shipping, then delayed it, then this. I hope to get some compensation...

    lol..they probably did it on purpose. i think i was the one who told you that HP might have you on a blacklist HAHA.

    ...maybe thats why they are treating you this way xD I dont think calling in would help you at this point =/

    I have that same "package status" on simple tracking. Check your FedEx tracking to see if you have what I have. Cept mine was supposed to be here the 14th...

    Yeah, I think you were too. ^_^
    They'd probably credit me a $10 gift card that can't be combined with anything. And that's if they're in a good mood.

    I was really looking forward to trying it out tomorrow...guess I get to spend some more time with this Dell...

    Oh, and where mine used to say, "on schedule," it now just says "in transit" in the large purple font. The estimate date hasn't changed, however.

    I'll wait until 4:30 tomorrow, just to prove my point to them.

    If HP were more organized, we'd have them more than a week ago! It shouldn't take a week to build...I think they need more chemEs overe there designing their factory. They probably have business people trying to design and run their factory...*shudders*

    Jeez. The difference between one rep and the next is huge. Some are cranky and stingy. I had one just completely refuse to price match on the slice. She first insisted you couldn't buy it separately, then insisted it wasn't available on the HP Home Store so it didn't count, then insisted that it wasn't the same battery, and finally said all I can do is cancel my order.

    I'm online chatting with rep right now.
    Basically b***chin about how I ordered on the 27th (that's right people. I'm the worst victim here)
    but people got it before i did when they ordered way later.

    and these delays keep comin up.
    I'm nervous about tomorrows arrival too tbh. wth.

    So far she's just like
    "I'll let the Marketing team know and bla bla feedback bla bla"

    I'm asking for appeasement and compensation lol

    Ok guys, I called a b**ched for a while.
    I got $50 back LOL

    I got $50 before, but I complained that other people got $100 back.
    So I asked for $50 more.

    She must've been pissed cuz she closed the chat without my consent.
    Took a screenshot of her saying I'd get my $50. In case it doesn't come +u+

    Flight from Alaska to Memphis:
    Arrives at 1am-ish.

    Drive from Memphis to Northern New Jersey (Where I live):
    18-19 hours (according to google maps)

    That would be 8pm/9pm at MINIMUM.
    They don't deliver Saturdays, do they?

    ^HP did not pay for Saturday delivery, according to several people who discussed it several pages back. FedEx can deliver on Saturdays though. If there's a local hub, you can pick it up yourself.

    We know this how? And hey... at least mine got on the plane! :D

    Not FedEx's fault if US customs took to long... so don't blame them.


    Indianapolis might get to Boston by tomorrow..but it would be luck for sure. Anyways... I thought FedEx shipped on Saturdays, at least around here?

    We know that since people are good at tracking flights (when they leave the airport and when your package departs from the fedex facility match up, time wise. Mine matches the memphis flight.

    some other people match the oakland flight)

    Normally needs to say "Departed Fedex location" as the last status to be on a plane. That time will coincide with a flight departure.

    Saturday delivery or pick up is not available on the International Economy distribution service.
