Is that another order? I'd imagine so... but you'd better hear it directly from Stig so I don't end up with two I´ll be more direct: AOL! (If possible of course.) Stripping off packaging for less bulk in transit is perfectly OK by me. _________________________ /Michael

robricc carpal tunnel Registered: 30/10/2000 Posts: 4931 Loc: New Jersey, USA	OK, So I just placed the 3rd order of the day. If Stig doesn't want it, I'm sure someone else will. _________________________ -Rob Riccardelli 80GB 16MB MK2 090000736

robricc carpal tunnel Registered: 30/10/2000 Posts: 4931 Loc: New Jersey, USA	I got a cancellation notice from IBM, but it doesn't mention which order was canceled. I would assume it was the last order for two, but it could be the first one in which case nobody's getting anything. I don't know why an outfit like IBM can't have up-to-the-second inventory on their website. _________________________ -Rob Riccardelli 80GB 16MB MK2 090000736

msaeger carpal tunnel Registered: 23/09/2000 Posts: 3608 Loc: Minnetonka, MN	Did they say it was cancelled due to the item being out of stock ? Maybe they thought three seperate orders by the same person for the same item was suspicious ? _________________________ Matt

robricc carpal tunnel Registered: 30/10/2000 Posts: 4931 Loc: New Jersey, USA	Seems it's because they're out of stock. People on fatwallet that placed their orders yesterday are getting the notice and I just got the 2nd one. Lame. Check out the text of the cancellation notice: Quote: Dear Customer, Thank you for ordering IBM Certified Used Equipment offered by IBM Credit LLC.

msaeger carpal tunnel Registered: 23/09/2000 Posts: 3608 Loc: Minnetonka, MN	They must have sold that division to a company in China too. You would think they could at least list a reason for the cancelation. _________________________ Matt
