Hey, guys. Don't really want to bump the thread, but I got an update on my order that's... pretty weird.

I checked my Paypal account to see if a refund was being processed, but there was nothing there, so I went to Walmart's site to see the order. At this point, I noticed something rather strange:

The monitors still said "shipped".

I could not have clicked the tracking link any faster, and like it said on Monday, my order had been sent back to sender, no biggie. Then I looked at Tuesday. Apparently, my screens arrived again to the Fedex building, and on Wednesday, the package left the facility.

So... I have no idea what's going on. The tracking page says that the package will arrive on Friday, which seems impossible. I... I think I gotta believe.

So my smaller misc. orders are supposed to arrive today; I've never gotten tracking info for the tracking numbers given, but their status on Walmart never changed from shipped and I never got a refund, I don't believe.

Weird.

It wasn't so much a "Damn him!" as a "Damn me!" for waiting so long/seeing it too late. I had just barely missed out on the best deals. The image was a harsh reminder of what could have been.

Congrats to everyone that scored a plump, retail killing.

I actually went into a store today and picked up my order (an underwhelming Jensen bookshelf stereo I ordered for my sister-in-law as a Christmas gift). It is the only item I actually managed to receive out of a total three items spread across two orders. The other two were cancelled last week.

Anecdotally, a colleague of my wife was apparently able to pick up the same stereo from the same Walmart. It's also the only item he received, though he ordered far more things than I did on that fateful Wednesday last week.

Once the item has been delivered, signed for and entered your premises it yours..

Even if Walmart rang you there is nothing they can do, they sold it to you period.

10 minutes later...


Seems like I'm getting my card.

Update 2: So my graphics card arrived today. Also a few minutes ago, Walmart sent me an email saying that they're refunding my money on the original order since it was cancelled and due to the pricing glitch.

They probably didn't realized I've already received the package..




Email just received from Walmart...

Dear xcharles718,
 
You may have received an email advising your order would be cancelled due to a technical error that caused many items to show incorrect pricing.  We subsequently sent you a ship confirmation for these items and charged your form of payment.
 
We sincerely apologize but the items below will not be available for delivery because of the price error.  You will receive another email within the next 3-5 days, advising that the refund has been initiated back to your original form of payment.
 
*************************************************************************** *****************************
Order number:  26**************      
 
Item Qty            Item Description
1                       EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 Graphics Card
 
*************************************************************************** *****************************
 
Sincerely,
 
Your Walmart.com Customer Service Team
 

Original email I sent a few days ago that lead to me getting a replacement...

Dear Walmart,

Just contacting back regarding my Graphics Card order. My card was charged, but the package never arrived to me, as it was intercepted. Would just like some explaination on what happened, and if I'll receive my package, and if not, when will I be refunded.

Thanks in Advance,
xcharles718

ya know, sometimes you just gotta go all out. good thing i didn't get 36 monitors.. wouldn't know where to put em haha. for real though, i'm pretty sure i got the monitors due to how early i ordered them. 3-4 hours before the majority of people, to be exact.

My car stereo whose order was canceled (I even got the 10 gift card) has apparently been sitting at my local Walmart for pick up for a week. I'll see if I can actually get it tomorrow. No biggie in if I cant, I already made 600$ off that TV I got from them.

I chose ship to store and ordered a few minutes earlier than you and all of my monitor and TV orders still got cancelled. I did manage to get some games and a video game guide though so it's not a total loss.

You just got extremely lucky so kudos to you.

This is the important difference. He didn't do much get lucky as he was smart enough to choose the option that have them less time and options to stop them.

Personally, I think there was no "real" way to getting your items. I got my video game guides and I did the free shipping option. And there have been reports here that people received their ship to home orders when they did the free shipping option while the orders that were placed using 2-Day shipping were canceled.

So I contacted UPS after my last packages (books) didn't arrive. The tracking numbers weren't in their system, at all. They literally don't exist.

The order is still marked as shipped on Walmart, and I never got refunded.

I emailed Walmart support asking how my packages could have tacking numbers that don't exist, and where my packages were. They quickly responded with am apology and are escalating the issue to find out what the hell happened.
