Hi guys,

Ordered Nov 21 from Amazon at $529... for what it's worth today my order still says: "The following item will arrive after December 25, 2009".

If you're emailing and calling them as much as I am, and originally had a different order earlier than the Nov one but only canceled because you wanted the rebate, do what I stated in my previous post--ask for priority for your new order.

Just got a call from Amazon saying they're giving my Nov order priority because of being lied to and having my Sept.19th one canceled. I was worried what the guy said in the email was just BS, but with this call, they've confirmed exactly what he said. Try it out, it won't hurt if you don't get it, sames go for you Laughing since you did the same as I.

Nah, for one thing I haven't been bugging them as much. And for another thing I cancelled my original order because Newegg had a better price (even commented on that so I bet if they pulled up my account details they would see that comment).

Congrats though

Fwiw, my order was 11/20 and current status is also "Shipment 1 of 1: The following item will arrive after December 25, 2009."

Hopefully they will get to November orders soon.

Laughing Man 2009-11-28 02:47

Re: Amazon?
 
It's probably because they don't know when the next shipment will arrive and they predict that fufilling the previous pre-orders will cause them to run out of stock of the first shipment before fufilling November pre-orders.

Just got my shipping confirmation email. Ordered it 09/29. Looks like they're getting close to October now.

"via UPS (estimated delivery date: November 30, 2009)."

Now I've gotta go order my sim card. And cancel my current phone plan.

Guess what Nokia USA had the phone in-stock.

I don't know why Amazon is such a slow MothaFuka in shipping stuff to customers. They denied that they have such device in their storage Warehouse nor its existence. They even said that the device is not yet out and they are waiting for the manufacturer for the release date. But on the other hand NOKIAUSA already confirmed they had them in stock and it is officially OUT NOW.

Well it looks like Amazon does have the phone in stock, they just don't have enough to meet all of the pre-orders, so they're going through the list and sending them out now to the people who ordered first. Which isn't such a surprise, Amazon probably got stuck with the largest number of orders and weren't sent enough phones to deal with it.

Personally I don't care about any of this. I was happy to wait an extra week to get my phone from Amazon. I've been buying from them for years and this definitely wont change that.

Also, are we going to complain that they're trying to meet all pre-orders before saying the phone is in stock and sending straight out to new orders? A couple of weeks ago this would have been considered standard practice but now it's a refreshingly smart decision.

yeah I know it wont change your decision. But if they know that there are alot of pre-order on their site why don't they order more device to atleast enough to ship to everyone who pre-order or order some extra spare units as precaution incase of this sort of thing happen?

Their management is really crap basically, did not think beyond the posibility. They already Knew that there is going to be alot of N900 pre-order and they are the biggest Online retailer as well..

Laughing Man 2009-11-28 07:03

Re: Amazon?
 
It's more the fact that their customer service is terrible which is ****ing everyone off. Is it that hard to say "we have the phone in stock and we are shipping in order of pre-orders". Heck they could even try to give an accurate date about when they are expecting the next shipment from Nokia. But instead they give vague or misleading news.

maxximuscool 2009-11-28 07:05

Re: Amazon?
 
On the other hand they could do what retailer should, call up NOKIAUSA and asked if they can share some devices while ordering the new shipment at the same time. This way Amazon and NOKIAUSA will have a better relationship and the customers like us will get the Device earlier. A few more weeks will result in the Christmas period and its a HOLIDAY time of the year. Thing is going to really bad and slowly progressing.

I agree. And they should probably teach their customer service reps not to say anything if they're not 100% sure of it while they're at it.

Yeah I know so misleading until 3 different Representatives provided me with 3 different statement lol.

1. The first one said "Amazon expecting the next shipment very soon and will be delivered before Xmas period"

2. Said "The Item is not yet available and also is not released. We are waiting for the manufacturer release confirmation"

3. We do not know when it will become available and may be 2010 lol.

I meant WTF??? Their Rebate end on the 31st December 2009 and their Shipment arrives like a month later?? are they living in the 18th Century delivery system? Is not there something called Freight? The ship method will not take up to 1month to get to USA, since the manufacturer is based in KOREA which will only take 1 week at most!! And by air will only take 1 Day at most.. What a bad customer services:mad::mad::mad:

Or they could at least update the information about the n900's status so CSRs have accurate information.

:D Amazon Customer Service Rep probably suck at remembering thing. They are like the cave men.. We just want our Pre-order progressing faster.


USA NOKIA is selling it at the store already if you happened to be in NY then just walk in and pick one up. Easy.

UK will be on 4th December but still OUR BLOODY Pre-order in USA is not even confirmed the date lol. Seriously If it is out in store right now then why is it still called a pre-order device?

All they do is look it up in the computer (that's how CSRs usually work). So Amazon just has to update the records in the computer.

lol agreed, may be Amazon just running slow in RAM i presume! It need to learn to multitasking, or change their Operating system to Maemo 5 or something.

wells, it's not bad of a deal for those who got their pre-order f***ed up by others companies. I'm in need of a phone right now because i will be on vacation pretty soon and my old phone keeps dropping signals on me all the time and also tired of NokiaUSA kept canceling my order and listen to Amazon bs lies. And no it's not my ebay seller account. I bought one from him and post the link just in case someone want to get one.
