dvdman47 11-18-05 01:42 PM

i keep having to close my browser, reopen it, type in www.circuitcity.com type xbox 360 in the search box, go to the xbox screen, click on add to cart, go to the cart, get an error message, and then repeat the process

raven56706 11-18-05 01:47 PM

dvdman47 11-18-05 01:51 PM

these companies have billions of dollars to throw around, dont you think they can spend it on good servers??? hahaha....they don't accept orders on the phone either do they?

dvdman47 11-18-05 02:13 PM

i cant even access the homepage now....wow they really blow

Ispep Aloc 11-18-05 02:16 PM

dvdman47 11-18-05 02:24 PM

does anyone keep getting popup messages for "******" rather than the site itself?

dvdman47 11-18-05 02:24 PM

oo i guess i am not allowed to mention the name of the company...just for reference it is a spamming rebate company

lotsofdvds 11-18-05 02:30 PM

Those of you who really want one but can't get one, feel good that people that have no use for them, have one:

She probably doesnt even know what one is. The green and white is really fashionable though!

dvdman47 11-18-05 02:33 PM

that is honestly disgusting and terrible haha

dvdman47 11-18-05 02:33 PM

she even has that snobby "i have one and you don't!" look, it pisses me off so much

dvdman47 11-18-05 02:46 PM

now they have up one of "we're fixing our site" pages come up when you try to get to the homepage...now where does that look familiar {cough}BEST BUY{cough}

lotsofdvds 11-18-05 02:47 PM

The color green probably confused her... she must have thought it was a new night vision accessory for her video camera exploits.

Ispep Aloc 11-18-05 02:52 PM

I was able to get through a little over an hour after you could add it to your cart. I clicked on Confirm and it went to a blank page but soon after that I got a confirmation email and my credit card was charged.

raven56706 11-18-05 03:28 PM

it is sold out now.... figures...

mrpayroll 11-18-05 03:28 PM

I'm not buying one thru Circuit City, but their webpage now states "Sorry, we are now sold out of XBox 360, Check back later for new stock, Thanks for shopping at Circuit City"

Does this make me a bad person if I wished that someone beat her over the head and stole her xbox from her? :shrug:

What pisses me off about that picture is that her family is worth billions and I bet she didn't have to pay a penny for it..... and she got it early! :mad:

Did anyone here order from Sam's? Any ideas when it's shipping?

shaane 11-18-05 07:28 PM

Best Buy online update
 
Looks like Madden has shipped; system and controller still on backorder. Maybe there will be some movement on those items this weekend?

Stoney 11-18-05 08:27 PM

I sure hope so. I did pick up Madden, Tony Hawk, and PGR at Best Buy/Meijer today. Still hunting down Perfect Dark Zero.

Gromit 11-18-05 09:18 PM

I hope I'm posting this in the right Xbox 360 thread...

The other night I was able to order a system from costco.com and I received a shipping confirmation email tonight. This really surprises me as I assumed that it wouldn't ship for a while (possibly weeks, simply because this was too easy).

No estimated delivery date for me yet, but someone on the TiVo forum has an estimated delivery date of *11/29*. Crap. That still might be better than the automated Gamestop call I received tonight, which said it could be early 2006.

Early 06??! What a load of shit! I guess that'll teach you for being an early adopter and actually paying for a system up front months and months before the release;) I can't imagine the people running those stores are having a very easy time of it, but honestly people what's the point of a preorder? umm maybe ensuring that you'll get a console on launch day.........yeah that's what it was the last I checked. I don't give a shit if they only let five people preorder at least then it would be worth it for the people who did it, they would know they were getting a system. Honestly for them to leave this many people waiting for something they already paid for is 1) Bad business 2) Just plain wrong.
