    You were totally flirting with her, then she flirts back but just to get 5 stars from you. She was using you! :D

    Hahaha Imagine. Being so alone your only flirt is with a live chat person in China responding to a query on a handheld gaming device :pac:

    So we have a chance if we're still 'processing'....I wonder how big a chance though? I'd be happy with 50/50.

    62% of orders cancelled apparently. I don't know if that means they cancelled themselves, or DX did it or both. Either way it gives us a much higher chance of getting them. :)

    Yep Messin, seems like we're in a bit of a 'lottery' , sigh.....

    On another forum, not sure where exactly, will try and dig it up, think it was HERE. It was a post by one of the Reps.

    Aarrrghh.. Can't find it. And now i'm going over it in my head I'm wondering did i read it correctly. I'm almost sure i did.They said that many orders were cancelled and it was 62.xx%.

    That forum is also where i read about the new Warehouse and that it may be in Switzerland, as they have a free trade deal with China, which comes into effect in 2014. Which means no duty.

    But i'm wondering would that mean, we would pay no duty for items coming from Switzerland?

    Not a hope of anyone receiving this before Christmas if the DX supply is on backorder.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,088 ✭✭✭Soarer


    That's the Cube though, not the handheld gaming tablet.


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


    Yes but it's the same company and the same kind of amazing "bargain".

    I ordered the CUBE and the gamers,and I know others have too, so this is of interest.

    Ps: Can anyone tell me if this is a good bargain or not?

    Very hard to say without seeing the list of games for it. They don't give too much information about it, not even a make and model. It looks like the only games that can be played on it are those that come with it (whatever they are!).

    scratch that, it's a partial order...

    So, going by DX, the reason there orders haven't yet been fulfilled is because they haven't got the stock rather than it being a misprice?

    In that case, isn't it just a case of sitting tight for a while (possibly weeks) and we'll all eventually get it? I mean this is a new device that is pretty popular and nowhere near at the end of it's production lifecycle. JXD will make more, and DX will (eventually) be able to get plenty more! There is every chance that DX will cancel all orders before they eventually restock it though, maybe they're just hoping people will cancel it of their own accord 1st.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,343 ✭✭✭witnessmenow


    Got a new email off DX for 2 out of 3 my tablets:

    Thank you for your order ###########. Unfortunately we are currently awaiting restock on one or more of your items. If you would like to wait for the item, we thank you for your patience and apologize for the inconvenience. If you would like to change this item or cancel the order, please click here .

    so we play the waiting game Mr Extreme, if that is your real name

    Got the same for the gaming tab. The other 2 are still processing.

    Edit: Scratch that, just received the email for the cube u39gt.

    Edit 2: And that's 3 for 3 :-/

    Me too, same emails. Not sure what to do.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,088 ✭✭✭Soarer


    So do they have our money while we play this waiting game?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,343 ✭✭✭witnessmenow


    Yeah. I dont feel too bad about waiting though as my payment came from my paypal balance that I can't easily get out of paypal (long story). So the money sitting in my paypal account versus sitting in Dxs account doesnt make much of a difference to me.

    We will need to open disputes with paypal before the 45 days(or whatever the limit is) is up f we still havent recieved any word.

    To be honest though, I used dx a lot in the past. Personally I believe they are reasonably reputable. I think we will eihter get a tablet or get our refunds without any hassle/

    Anyone can cancel and get a full refund if they want, it says quite clearly in the emails!


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


    It's probably going to be fine, but it's my first time dealing with them, and I am gutted that they won't be here by Christmas, specially the games.

    Anyways, maybe a miracle will happen, lol.......good luck to everyone!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,170 ✭✭✭messinkiapina


    They are almost certainly hoping that everyone cancels IMO. If enough people cancel they MIGHT fulfill the remaining orders, but I wouldn't be surprised either if a blanket cancellation email follows soon.

    I'm definitely going to sit on it for as long as possible and see what happens. If nothing else, I have confidence that dx will give me my money back whenever the time comes
