snowman1503559960 Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Order # 727647 Damn so thats at least 130 orders before mine went through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
achjimmy Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 I just spoke with them as i have ordered another item that is 3 weeks away. PE is only coming into stock today at the earliest, the guy mentioned the massive number of OS orders and said they had just had a discussion regarding fufilling Australian orders 1st (Yea) btw they are based in NZ. So i would imagine stocks will start to flow out straight away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazzad Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 I'd like to know tho... if he has bought 20? copies of them, how is he going to arrange with JB to post to addresses all over the world? That would be a nightmare for JB to do..lol hope they cancel his order My guess is he has it shipped to someone he knows in AU and they ship it for him. That is of course if thats how he's done it. Ebay does not seem to indicate when it was listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveT Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Even though I have 1 of the early orders if they fill out any of those ebay vulture orders before any single order Australians it would make me very angry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biot Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Where is JB's Australian spirit? I buy most of my stuff from there because I like to support local stores. Now they're selling 30 copies to some guy overseas and living us Aussies dry.So much for wanting to support them when they don't support us in return. Grrrr... they do have the ability not to process his order or to give it low priority - the ebay person is taking a big risk pre-selling something he doesnt have.

tvbert Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 I think it might have been listed at midnight, went to new price automatically last night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveT Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 What happens to the ebayer if JB hi fi had no auto remove on Planet Earth and only removed it first thing when staff came in and they actually only had 100 copies to begin with. Some angry buyers then when he can't complete the order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESM Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Checked again, think JB's removed it from the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our version sold locally at JB is different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveT Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Well thats just a disgrace, i see there's a guy on ebay from toronto canada selling a heap of them http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Planet-Earth-HD-DVD...1QQcmdZViewItem That ebayer is clearly selling the JB one. He has even cut and pasted the description from the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djbigk1503560164 Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Would be great if JB fulfilled orders with this priority: (1) 1 x AU based orders (2) 2 x AU based orders* (3) 1 x foreign based orders (3) 2+ AU based orders (4) 1+ foreign based orders * - Appreciate that some people may have been picking up an extra copy for a friend.

If we all tell them that we support there decision to supply the Australian/NZ private orders 1st (dont forget the NZ bit as thats were they are) we will be more inclinded to use there "excellent" online order system again! It wont be hard for them to source out the vultures, anybody ordering more than say 3! (i only ordered1) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h e a d Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 I think this order is more appropriate: (1) X x DTV Forum Members orders (2) 1 x AU based orders (3) 2 x AU based orders* (4) 1 x foreign based orders (5) 2+ AU based orders (6) 1+ foreign based orders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffie1503561482 Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 i dont think they care about much except for getting rid of them - otherwise they would have marked 1 per customer or whatever. maybe thats why the sales people were told they cant sell the xe1s... so they can have some mad online sale?? who knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djbigk1503560164 Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 They have no reason to do this. An order is an order to them, no matter where it comes from. Obviously. I did say it would be great, not that it was actually going to happen. It's blatantly obvious that any order greater than 2 has been made for some sort of profit. If* I was running things at JB I'd be keen to get the set to people who have bought it for themselves, and not for profiteering purposes. * - I'm not, just in case you think I am.
