Is it here yet?

Haha Morrison,

Looks like you're suffering from 'order-status-itis', a terrible affliction that renders the subject almost useless and vacant until the page is updated... the common symptom of all sufferers is, in the words of artists more eloquent than I, that 'the waiting drove me mad...'

I don't blame you at all - here I am sitting at work waiting for the order status on my iPod Mini (surely any day now!) and iPod to update - even though they probably won't for a few days. When I ordered my Powerbook last month, the whole process only took a week for the package to arrive but everyday I sat waiting checking the page - you can't let it roam inside your head

Congratulations on the buy - you'll love it! And I'm sure it'll be there soon enough - hopefully you won't be a mess when it arrives

 

It looks like you selected some customized options, so they will have to "build" your PB.

I would not expect it for the weekend.

 

Congrats!

I know that it is a hard move being the first Mac user in a group of devoted PC users.

Welcome to the fold!

Same thing happened and happening again

I went thru the same thing when I got my PowerBook 12" last xmas. And now yet again I find my self the same way. Still need to pay for my new G5 that I just bought yesterday. But man I can't wait to open it and start using it. Bought it from someone online, will be paying with escrowse.com service. i like the idea they have seems pretty good. Anyone used it before? Any input will be appreciated and I'll say something after I'm done with this deal.

 

Congrats on the buy!

 

FYI, it appears that 2-day shipments in the U.S. get picked up by FedEx around 11:00 p.m. PST. So any FedEx tracking information will probably not be available until then. This may help keep your refreshing of the status page down to a minimum.

 

Always nice to see an old-skool Pearl Jam reference.

 

I just ordered a new dual 2.0 g5 with a gig of ram, and the new 20in acd. so i know exactly how you feel, congratulations on your purchase.

BTW Once your family members see your new powerbook, im sure you will be able to convert them all.

 

WARNING!

WARNING!

This web site - escrowse.com - appears to be a rip-off. It appears it is NOT an escrow service at all, but is solely intended to get the buyer's money - and keep it! It is unlikely that any legitimate seller would use this "so called" escrow service. In all likelihood, the people who are supposed to be selling you goods and the people who are responsible for escrowse.com are EXACTLY THE SAME PEOPLE!

If you believe that it is a genuine transaction, write back to the seller and recommend using escrow.com instead - it is a REAL escrow service, and it is recommended by ebay.

Use due diligence in ALL on-line transactions. Research all merchants, sellers or intermediaries BEFORE you send any funds or personal information.

On-line commerce is a great way to get REAL great deals - but you have to use appropriate caution.

Good luck with your on-line purchases!

P.S. As my user name might indicate - I've really got no Macs. I only registered on this forum so that I could post a warning about this bogus escrow site. I'm afraid I was too late for iBert, but I hope not.

 

He's right. I read something about this site.

 

PULL OUT!!!!!!!!! escrowse.com is a SCAM!!!

dude, morisson... I hate to tell you this but I think you've fallen victim to a scam.
