well that's great that more than 2 weeks later you got your "LITE". Ripping off, well we don't know that we AREN'T going to get our chips yet. Problem is this: they claim to be the most honest dealer out there on their info page, that they don't mislead on times for arrival. Upon ordering our chips recently, ALL of us were deceived in that they said in stock at the time. They have been vague about dates, changed them a few times already, cost more than any reseller I've seen so far, and full out stated "don't email us if you don't get it when you are supposed to, or else we can ship you last or not ship you at all." This was paraphrased of course, but that's what it says, right on their info page.
Finally, you DID receive your LITE, but what about all the other people that ordered LITE PLUS'S or PRO'S. You know, the ones that weren't told THAT shipment wasn't coming in on the 12-14. So I guess this all depends on what you call a rip-off. Paying for something and never getting it as part of a plan is a rip-off. But how about paying a premium on something you order, being "misled" as to it's availability, being told not to ask, and being charged weeks before it's even shipped? To me, that's also a rip-off, I'm not getting what I paid for. For the high price they charge, you'd think honesty and customer service would be a given. And checking out other resellers comments here, I'd say other's have paid less, gotten their product when told, and been handled like customers, not like beggers. I hate to sound irate, but I am. We are left complaining here as if we mail it to them, they will screw us more. Wouldn't want to give them an excuse to put us bottom of the shipping list in order or not sent what we've already paid for, as their email and info page clearly states.
