    It looked like a good deal for premium SZ150p/c (80 GB/512 RAM) for $2058, ready for my own upgrades:

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EM3A8I/ref=sr_11_1/103-9555914-2819838?_encoding=UTF8

    So, I placed order, received amazon confirmation for sz150 and later from tech depot/office depot confirmation for sz120p/b. :confused:

    Apparently, either amazon or office depot messed up something in their system. I called CS to cancel my order and CR told me actually never had 150 !!!! Ridiculous!!!

    I only buy products shipped and sold by Amazon.com

    You gotta read the product listing carefully before ordering because they open on their system to third party vendors.

    Yes, you're right. But, is it normal when you get first confirmation from Amazon for one item and then the seller sends you confirmation for a different item? Maybe I was just too naive?
