Sl-6000l On Amazon For $300 Right Now!

[adf]

um Floyd did he REFUSE as in he exists and said no?
That might be a good thing. Better by far than no response.
a live person on the otherside of the server? hopeful!

[f1oyd1an]

said no i guess..
he was on my list when i added.. and now he disappears.. this happens when he refuses?

[adf]

hmm
not eough time on yahoo I'm afraid.
that could mean he said no.. that he has blocked you.
make up a user that doesn not exist and try to add it.. that would tell us
if it isn't too much trouble.

[adf]

The thing that is just killing me is that amazon could easily verify his continued existence as per several requests. This isn't outlandish.. they brokered and guarantee the deal after all.
I'd take guaranteed  refund on the 24th with notification from Amazon that he is no longer available.
Or an explanation that he has been contacted and we should just shut up and wait.
Their refusal to simply verify that he is there, given the circumstances, is really appalling.

Will it be any good if we all post bad seller feedback? I know some of us have already done so, maybe the rest of us should act too, to drive down jpettins' ratings.

[adf]

he isn't selling anything. it wouldn't matter... but go ahead. certainly it will create a record of what and when

I just dug up an ancient Yahoo account.  I only used it once about 3 years ago (the IM part) so I'm no expert but you're welcome to add me to your list and see what happens.  I'm ray1010 _ 1999 without the spaces.   I assume I'll get some sort of notification but who knows.

I've also added jpettins to my list and it claims he is "away" for now.

[adf]

away...?
hmm
that usually stands for online-but-not-active.  not necessarily, though.

He would appear as not online if he had just up and left, i would think (unless he just left a cheap box on to create an illusion?)
curious.
I can't get a profile page for _radu_ but then I don't really spend any time navigating amazon.
( and I'm not really thrilled to have started either

[nmos]

Well maybe not "away"  Just an icon with an all grey face.

[adf]

ah
not online then, I think.
figures.


On the bright side this means i can sell my 5600 for much more on ebay. then combine that with the late refund and get an 860 from pricejapan

[adf]

oops, no. I need both a big cf and wireless simultaneously. 3k then... or expensive 6k
hmm

[wizzard]

Several 6Ks available on ebay with sub $300 prices and no reserve. Shipping for most is around $20 though. Also no returns and warranty through manufacturer. I am too chicken to try (especially so soon after getting burned).

[f1oyd1an]

they usually go for +/- 400 bucks by the time auction ends..

[adf]

Ah here's the catch.
If amazon would give me my $$ back i'd look into it. BUt I can't just toss another 300 into a new z claming it is a great deal... without a big hassle from the wife anyway...

I really wish amazon were more on the ball.

They have no reason to keep us in the dark and keep our money.

Of course.... the ebay z's are probably a scam too....  but at least one could arrange one's own escrow and give the seller safe take it or leave it offer.

[SHaubner]

Most ebayers with established feedback ratings are legit.  I looked at a few listings, but they are typically over $400 at the end and with shipping around $430-$460.  Might look into a used c700 again.
