My Vive has arrived! Shame I can't get it until later today, or maybe tomorrow.

Personal life/problems getting in the way! Urgh.

Here we go!

seen some sell for £900 and another for £1019 on ebay. Not really great for profiteering seeing as ebay take £75 of that and play pal will take about £35. some people are so thick.

I take it you guys who got yours already paid with PayPal yes?

Guys that have them could we know what time your order went through and if it was CC or paypal please?

Ghosteh · 6 Apr 2016 at 12:13

It was Paypal. My order went though at around :07 past the hour.

As far as I've seen it is pretty much only PayPal orders in the EU that have been delivered so far.

Was it actually taken, or just pending?

As in, is it listed on the transactions, or just gone from the credit/funds?

Believe me, I paid literally 5 minutes after it went on sale and paid by Paypal. Still heard nowt.

I'm holding on to some hope that it'll turn up at my door today and the confirmation email just hasn't arrive !

This thing with the CCs is really bad. They should be refunding shipping costs IMO.

Zumber · 6 Apr 2016 at 13:15

I'm on the blower to them now. Judging by the time I'm being kept om hold, they're either trying to sort out my order or they have no clue. I'm shifting towards the latter.

Yup they can't find my order, now I have to await a call back from their ecomm team.

Tbh I don't mind if my order gets cancelled at this point, I am so angry that I don't want to do business with them any more.

I'm mildly disappointed, but no way would I cancel this order. That's insane.

End of the day that have something we all ready REALLY want. That's all there is to it.

Cancel it then?

What is the point in getting "so angry" over something you've ordered

Zumber · 6 Apr 2016 at 13:27

I'm starting to feel the same way. I didn't want the Oculus as I feel the tracking is superior on the Vive, However I've heard the Vive is heavier than the Rift. So if I've not got it by Sunday, the day I go back to work, I'll consider cancelling it and jumping ship. I can see why HTC have only one percent of the mobile phone market. Their customer service is shockingly bad.

Not sure I agree, it still costs for the postage , unless the postage included a specific timeframe then I wouldn't think anyone was entitled to a refund
