OMG...Amazon 20% coupon on NEW Macbook Airs

wtf like seriously. my eta is still monday the 15th but it hasn't shipped yet. reps are promising me that it'll come monday but how, it didn't ship. than the one rep who tells me my order is delayed says he can't tell me why amazon is delaying my order. sorry to say, **** amazon.

thats true. though i do hate when people tell me one thing when its really not true. factor in the fact that they're not trying to tell me the reason why its delayed is just irritating.
 
lol just called a rep on the phone. more unhelpful. looked at the screen and said "oh its out of stock." Which goes against what all the other reps said. He said that the full amount pending on my account doesn't mean that its shipping soon and that he has no idea when it'll come back in stock. Even though i asked why it would go from "not yet shipped" to "shipping soon" if it was out of stock and He says the "shipping soon" status on my order means that it will ship soon but its out of stock so he has no idea when that'll be. weird right.

watch, my airs going to come messed up from the start. i feel it. never had amazon miss a deadline before. sucks they're not giving me a straight answer. seems that the customer service reps are talking out they're asses. not sure what to believe.

Coupon is not valid anymore, talk to them online and see if they can do it for you...

but first order it and try to apply the code if it does not work then immediately speak to them and apply it

----------



Order number is linked to a specific amazon user account, i dont understand y someone would share that with you ?

Thank you! Too sad that this coupon is not valid any more. So the sales rep can help me apply the coupon to my order? Anyone has successfully done this?

Too strange I tried to apply the number on an mba and it shows discount, then I deleted the item and the order. Next time I tried to apply the coupon to an 15 mbp and it said "The promotion code has already been redeemed." How is that possible? I didn't use the coupon to finish my order, just tried to see the real discount...

One of the reps was like yeah it was the wrong link we sent out it was a mistake I was like dang that sucks I feel bad for amazon then I thought to myself this is a multi million dollar industry they can take a small hit lol

Looking at the new list of eligible notebooks, I do think Amazon sent the original link out by mistake and we "got lucky" in getting the new MacBook Air models at a discount. The remaining notebooks are mostly in the $350-750 range, apart from the 2010 MacBook Air. Thus, Amazon was modeling for discounts in the $70-150 range, which makes more sense given the $114-139 selling price of the Kindle with Special Offers models.
 
I was about to purchase a MacBook Air this week. However, I saw this forum. Does anyone know if it is possible to get 20% off without the purchase of a kindle?

Thanks for the help!

Similar to this?

http://cgi.ebay.com/20-off-COUPON-C...40592735831?pt=US_Coupons&hash=item20bbfae657

How would I know the code would 100% work?

Thanks!

the thing is that the code may not work... you have to almost beg the rep to let you use the code.... some haven;t even been taking it.... like the last guy didn't even take it but he was able to review what hash append in the past.... some people take the code and if they find out its been used.... your pretty much done for... so its a game of luck honestly... but they let me do it after the 6 TRY MACBOOK PRO AUGUST 26 WOOOOOOO!!!

The seller was nice enough to offer me an out and I asked if he would give me a refund; he's checking the info and he's finding out that it's not just for Apple products, but for anyone trying to use the discount on any of the items where the 20% discount would apply.

I definitely think this is not just for Apple products and not even just for this promo. I placed an order for 2 textbooks yesterday that were shipped and then this morning realized that there was a $25 off promo for textbooks on my KSO. I had the promotion sent to my email and then called Amazon to see if they would go ahead and apply the code to yesterday's order and they specifically mentioned the code that was sent to me this morning in my email, so it seems they are checking to see if the codes are matching up with email addresses.

They couldn't apply the $25 credit to the order because it had already shipped but they did put a $25 credit on my account for a future purchase.

I would be wary of buying a code on ebay because of this.

Maybe they don't really know the real reason for the delay but ended up unintentionally telling you something not totally true in their quest to try their best to keep you happy. :confused:
 
13" 256gb MBA delivered by UPS at 10:42 am. Ordered 8/6 with one day Prime shipping. No holes punched in the box like the 2010 model that I ordered last year and had to be exchanged. Now to see if there are any defects.
 
13 inch is still "not yet shipped." thinking of just talking to a rep and having them swap it out for an 11inch just so i can get it quicker...
 
I tried swapping out mine but it was a no go. The order would have to be cancelled and you can't redeem the code again. The reps were very adamant about that.
 
you guys should have just ordered the pro honestly..... mine was order today and will be here by next week............with the free shipping.
