    That's 3 tablets ordered so far today... Please stop posting them! :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,161 ✭✭✭Amazingfun


    I've already ordered the Cube from them earlier today.....:)

    Can someone tell me, is this a computer as well? Or just for games?

    My nephews are right now obsessed with DS players.....is this somewhat the same? I might pick up a couple for them for the Christmas!

    I am clueless---thanks :)

    $200 on Wilgoo, $150 was the cheapest I could find it anywhere else. I'm still not convinced we'll actually get this, but a very nice piece of kit for the money if we do :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 143 ✭✭whackball


    Haven`t bought from these in a while. What sort of custom charges could you expect to incur on this.

    cheers....

    PSP and PS1 emulator??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,318 ✭✭✭Absoluvely


    Is there a way to pay in euro so you don't have to pay any conversion fees? It seems to switch to dollars at the checkout.

    So What games??

    Some classics I'd say like street fighter 2, final fantasy, f zero, super Mario, Mario kart, donkey kong and bomberman for the Super Nintendo. Streets of rage and sonic for sega to name a few :)

    Not needed. ORDERED!

    Get Sonic on it and it'll keep my iPad out of the hands of the 5 year old!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,708 ✭✭✭Charlie-Bravo


    can this be used as a standard tablet?

    Yes, it's basically a tablet with gaming controls built into it.

    If you just intend to use it as a tablet, it will do everything you want but might be a bit more cumbersome than a regular tablet because of the extra bulk... BUT you're getting a 2Gb RAM, quad-core Android 2.2 device for €35. That's insane value, and common sense would say that it's a miss-price, but I hope I'm wrong :)

    two tablets in an hour :/

    I bought the Cube U39GT earlier, and now two of these.

    I feel brilliant to be honest, that is a major slice of my Christmas shopping done IF they get here on time, lol........*****nerves******

    I bought the older s7300 on adverts last week for €100! No way in hell will they honour this.

    Not sure if this is good news or bad...but many are suggesting they will just refund our money, that these were mistakes. Hope not!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,381 ✭✭✭✭Allyall


    They're up there now.. Or seem to be.
    You can add to basket etc.. Unless they say out of stock at checkout? I didn't go that far.

    EDIT - Went all the way.. :P Still up, or Back up again..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,161 ✭✭✭Amazingfun


    Says this now on The Cube:
    Shipping: Free Shipping To IRELAND
    Dispatch: Item is temporarily sold out.

    Opps: the gamers are now sold out too!

    You got one just in time it seems :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 97 ✭✭jasonhn


    What is delivery time like? 2-3 weeks? and I presume you get caught for some charges at the door?

    I thought DX were trying to get a foothold back in the market by selling a couple of items at next months (few months away) prices.
    I forgot how fond of fake promos DX are. Maybe these will come good, but i doubt it (In the cold light of day).
    They should be banned from appearing on any sites/forums that may promote them in any way.

    I don't believe for a second these DX "Offers" were/are misprices. I think they were perfectly calculated in time for Christmas orders.

    They'll probably selll tons of tat on the back of these fake offers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,167 ✭✭✭messinkiapina


    Still no refund but it's looking inevitable now after the icoo tablet 'misprice'. Ah well, we kind of knew.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,167 ✭✭✭messinkiapina


    Anyone get a cancellation/refund yet? Mine is still showing as processing, just hoping beyond hope now :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,161 ✭✭✭Amazingfun

    No, I even checked my paypal.

    But the comments on the hotdeals site are not encouraging, are they?

    Seems the CUBE advertised is not the one they are actually selling, and they also say they are out of stock, etc. Sounds fishy.

    I checked my paypal---orders say complete, but--no money is on my actual card yet, so don't know if they actually took payment, despite what the transaction on Paypal shows.

    I am not hopeful at all now, and so many others are getting refunds/cancellations.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Soarer


    Exactly the same for me. Order says processing, and Paypal says completed.

    We'll keep hoping anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,381 ✭✭✭✭Allyall


    Apparently good. All orders after 18:00 on 11/19/13 (West Coast Time) will be cancelled because they were already "out of stock".

    Source: Live Chat for DX.com

    I think that's 3AM this morning. I think....

    I don't think it's a "mistake" (Or a fake promo) anymore, and i take back my post from above if at least some people get them.

    I went and cancelled the order earlier. Couldn't be arsed with waiting for the inevitable.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,204 ✭✭✭Aspiring


    Considering ordering this. Never been down by dx before but this just seems a little too good to be true..

    EDIT: Sold out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 292 ✭✭briman1983


    I got refunded at 6am this morning. has anyone else gotten refunds


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Soarer


    When did you order?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,161 ✭✭✭Amazingfun


    Not me, still nothing. Just checked paypal and my email again.

    Check the time your order went through. They are (apparently) hoping for more stock from VR, but only enough to fulfill x amount extra. So it looks like many will go through.

    But they are 'saying' the cut off time was officially 18:00PM.

    The story they are giving (Believable to me) Is that these deals went Worldwide and were expected to be Country specific. Then when they saw how wide they had spread, and they weren't banking on the same people that had bought one, buying the other etc..

    So, many orders will be fulfilled, and many won't. I guess that they can try and distribute them evenly, or first come first served.

    - That's what i'm picking up so far..

    Yep, me.:( Placed the order at 10:58pm tuesday, refund notice received at 8:01am wednesday.

    It was the last of my three orders from DX on tuesday and the only refund so far, so fingers crossed on the others, but I'm feeling positive. The finger isn't even hovering over Joes phone number yet!:)
    And in equal amounts - 'thank you OP'..... and 'FU Boards BA's' (I thought tuesdays deals would never end - it'd be easier on my CC if I took a hit out on Allyall, thats provided assassins take CC).
    Good luck the rest of ye with this order, really hope it comes through.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,381 ✭✭✭✭Allyall


    The 18:00 refers to West Coast Time. When you login, you can check what time you purchased it at.
    They are sending out emails now, to tell people who haven't been refunded, that they are (also?) in a type of lottery.

    Now VR have zero left in stock also (It seems they sent them all to DX, as they are €10 - €15 more). So more orders will be fulfilled then the mentioned 2%.
    "It's a pleasure to let you know your order

    EDIT -
    Apparently they are cancelling 90% of orders (Which is less than i originally heard). From another forum (possibly HUKD)

    My order is still being processed. Purchase time was 17:23.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,797 ✭✭✭sweetie


    this was cancelled on me but still in with a shot for the tablet :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,161 ✭✭✭Amazingfun


    Funny, the money for the gaming consoles has now showed up on my cc, even though I bought the Tablet first?

    Also: no cancellations yet of either for me.

    Very strange!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 67 ✭✭dlnv27


    Ordered 3 of these. Ist order for two. 2nd order for one. Also ordered two tablets. Have received a refund for one tablet but heard nothing from them regarding the rest of my orders other than the emails confirming my orders.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 4 lol_bard


    Anyone have a link to something similar to this (Android 4.0 7" with game controls)

    Cheers.

    ps: I've seen the other JXD ones with the knockoff ios display and I'm not interested in those ones
