Wish they had originally done that with mine! I filed the dispute one day, they replied the same day saying they'd refund me, and then shipped the damn thing the next afternoon! They really need to get their stuff together.
Got a tip for us?

That's the color combination I'm waiting to order. It looks great! Thanks for the pics josephrojas. I'll have to choose between gunmetal / blue or silver / blue haha.
Both of those are GORGEOUS! I think I am changing my mind as to the color I want. I am still awaiting my email from Element - which is fine with me for awhile anyway! I really liked the Blue/Gunmetal but I actually think I like the Silver and Blue better!
If you are serious, I cannot believe this lunacy. This is hardly some "limited edition only 1000 units will be made" thingie.
How did you get your second one so fast. Mine shipped two days after you first one delivered and I just got it today and you already got your second one. I am going to reorder a silver/blue and sell my red/black
Sure it is. The limited Element Vapor 4 edition drops calls, doesn't fit any know accessories, kills GPS signal, doesn't protect the phone and takes 2 months to arrive. What more do you want for $240.00
Get it quick before version 9 gets here and actually works. ACT NOW! Representatives may or may not be standing by.
I just sent them an email pretty much reaming them out in a polite manner. I got tracking info last week, doesn't show up on USPS.com STILL, 25bux shipping should be 3 day purolator like globaldirect did from CHINA!!!!
It's nuts. What a way to run ( ruin ) a business. I love hearing that orders 5*** are being received and my 34** still has no tracking info. I'm not bithching at this point. This is all out complaining. Element you suck!!! If mine does magically appear today I'm gonna send them a very impolite email.

tell me about it man, I've been a very patient customer up to this point but now its out of hand, I checked my mail today at lunch and nothing was there so that was the last straw for me...I emailed them when I got back from lunch explaining my unhappiness in a polite manner and *****, I get married next weekend and honeymoon after and I don't need it showing up then and end up sitting at the post office to be sent back or something. My order number is 46XX and I have useless tracking information as USPS has no record of it since I was given this info last week...fock!
I got my preorder form finally today after registering July 2nd . I replied back with a rant of how they suck
Just for you guys' info, I just received a reply from Element regarding what changes they had in store for a potential "version 3" (if you read one of my previous posts, you can see where I posted a copy of an email from "Russell" at Element where he mentions more changes to come). Below is that email:
I'm having a really hard time believing his claim of anyone reporting their signal being "increased". Has ANYONE here who has received a Vapor seen an IMPROVEMENT in their reception/data speeds/GPS accuracy/bluetooth reception? Anything?
I just really wanted to move mine without having to deal with the jackasses at Element and doing a return. God knows how they'd ******* that up and how long it'd take them to process it, seeing as how it takes weeks to respond to email. I'm sure I could have sold mine for more, but I'm happy as hell to have gotten $150 for my opened Vapor. Just glad to have washed my hands of Element.
Chris,
We have been working on many different sort of fixes. We actually have people who say it increases there signal or does not effect there signal at all. We have done actual field tests where the drop off is no less then 1 DBM. We are sorry you are not happy with the product and that is why we are offering a 100 percent money back guarantee.

This is complete and utter crap. "Field tests". What a joke! A couple of kids in momma's basement.
Beta suckers that'll pay for unproven, untested crap, rant for pages about their pre-orders, orders and the "fixes" with v 1, 2, 3. Couple that with the sheep who believe all of the PR crap that occasionally comes out in an Email to appease said sheep.
Total scam. They are ROTFLTAO all the way to the bank. PT Barnum was correct, "a sucker born every minute"!
LOL
"Total scam" yet there are many happy customers on here who have their case.
People were also calling Apple a total scam for doing the exact same thing except Apple doesn't even reply to emails! Remember the whole "reception issue"?
You should seek help or kill your MacRumors acc. You really don't belong on a web forum with an attitude like that.
They small amount of joy you get from insulting people you don't know can't take the place of having real live friends. Good luck with the friends thing.
