gone up to e23

Same story here as others have reported. Got the email from PayPal shortly after placing the order, but have heard squat from Focalprice. My order shows as paid in the account I created on FP site.
Just have to wait and see for now....

Edit: Switched to the desktop version of FP site and the status on that says "Paid & Unpacked". When I go into the detailed order description it says " The tracking number will be sent to you shortly. " (I selected the delivery with tracking option when buying.)

Order status 'paid & unpacked' too - delivery time a bit ominous:

I placed a separate order for some crappy headphones and they have the same date. So hopefully nothing to worry about !

Weird as apparently some on HUKD are getting their orders (some multiple) despatched, but that site has lots of trolls.

I have a feeling that they will still be cancelled.

duridian · 08-04-2016 11:06AM

I sent them a request for a refund after seeing postsnthing's post at 10.44.

Hope they have the decency to issue a refund promptly after wasting our time.
I don't believe they will honour any of these, and that it is little more that an attempt to suck people into paying the full price for these controllers, while also harvesting addresses and data.

08-04-2016 11:16AM

I don't mind too much if they cancel but I just wish they'd take their fingers out of their asses and either cancel or fulfill. Fcuking limbo. :mad:

I wonder why postsnthing was worded differently.
My first email was sent 14 hours ago, as I'd say postsnthing was, but everyone elses seems to be the same.

coldfire1x · 08-04-2016 12:55PM

Got the same cancellation email. Ah well it was worth a try. Hope we get the refund soon.

I didn't get an email but my order status is showing as "invalid". So that's that then. Sorry for the giant waste of time lads.

duridian · 08-04-2016 02:06PM

Got the same email as the others immediately above. Still no sign of the refund though.

SCOOP 64 · 08-04-2016 04:51PM

Same here,

Same here, no email. I've a feeling I'll have to be chasing them up for the refund.

Allyall · 08-04-2016 06:18PM

Refunds take 3-5 days to come through.
Better stores are the ones that don't take the payment until they've shipped the item(s).

Niemoj · 08-04-2016 09:15PM

I got one cancellation email and one congratulations email.

I wonder what'll happen.

Same, the plot thickens !

EJ22 · 08-04-2016 10:29PM

I got a cancellation email then I got a confirmation email so I'm just gonna wait and see what happens

duridian · 08-04-2016 10:30PM

Add me to the list as I have just now got a "Congratulations" email after earlier getting the cancellation email.

Animo · 08-04-2016 10:51PM

Just received a a 'Congratulations' email as well, after getting the refund/cancellation email earlier. Doubtful it will arrived but we'll see what happens sure!

lau1247 · 09-04-2016 10:05AM

I wouldn't count on it.

When I signed up the other evening, I was playing around with the setting afterward and one of the option was to essentially validate the email. It only came the day after so it seems like the system has a lag of about 24 hours.

By the looks of things, the cancellation email was done manually and the congratulation mail was automatic (plus lag).

In any case, my account page is showing as 'Invalid' so it looks like it is definitely cancelled but one can only hope it is not, right? :pac:
