It’s a funny story that will probably get lost in the Twitter feed, but I’ll share it anyway. I ordered an Amazon Kindle Scribe Colorsoft 64 GB during the launch (in the first minute) with “tomorrow” delivery. A few hours later, the delivery date shifted to December 31, 2037, between 1 a.m. and 9 p.m. I ordered it again (thankfully, I thought, there’s a return policy). The new order also shifted to that date. Five days later (today), both orders were unilaterally canceled, as if I hadn’t met the courier (the delivery was to the company’s reception desk, so that’s definitely not true). I contacted support, and they tried to convince me that this was a common occurrence. But I had two orders, so something was definitely fishy here. So I went looking and found a similar story on Reddit regarding the previous generation of Kindle. There’s a lot of room for speculation here. Maybe Amazon gives priority to individual orders at the start of sales (I ordered at my office address), or maybe their system was overloaded, and they accepted more orders than they could ship, and I ended up on the back burner (twice). But the sad part is that the delivery date is now the end of May, and I’ve been waiting for this e-reader since late last year, when sales began in the US. @amazon @amazonDE not only let me down and upset me, but also refused to take responsibility and closed the case citing “Customer refused delivery”



I can't wait
