I ordered a black MacBook from Amazon.com a couple of days ago, and received it today. A few years ago, I ordered my PowerBook from Amazon.com, but it was stolen by a UPS employee in transit, and Amazon.com refused to give me a refund for nearly 2 months. I decided to try Amazon again because, well, it was cheaper than Apple's education store, at least in my state [9% sales tax] (and quicker too).
I opened the package, and what falls out - my order form, along with an order form dated July 18, 2006 for a "Bill Worboys", who ordered the same item. On the slip, it is written, "Return for complete refund. UNIT SHUTS OFF RANDOMLY!"
I figured that it could just be an old box. I take the MacBook box out, and the seal is already broken. Opened it up, everything looked fine... took the laptop out, and it has fingerprints all over the screen. I try powering it on, it powers on and shuts off by itself.
Now I'm trying to get a replacement, and I want it by Saturday (I have Amazon Prime, I had this one shipped one day). Is there anyway I can convince them to ship it with One-Day Saturday delivery?? I pretty much demanded it, but haven't heard anything back yet.
