I currently have a different problem with Amazon. I ordered a graphics card four weeks ago. No high end thing, a simple one with a price tag of €132. They confirmed sending it, then something happened, and shipping was delayed. I got the offer to cancel my order. Nope. I want that card. That's why I ordered it. They currently have 10 of them in stock, but now priced €199. If I would cancel and order new i would have to pay the new price.
Yeah. Shit like this sorta reminds me of the reports I’ve been hearing about warranty replacements on drives. They don’t send you a replacement because that drive is worth twice what it was so they refund your money you originally paid. It’s almost like it’s turning into eBay and the highest bid.
