got my 4 boxes of goods from numerous orders this afternoon,shipped from US to Sing via vpost then via UPS to Taiwan,date of first order on 16th nov 07, so took 76 days to finally reach me, sounds a bit like 80 days around the world ah.Anyhow, i think the big big box is packed by irobot cos they have the irobot logo outside,one especially outrageously big box carries a diamensional weight of 32.5kg when the 2 comparatively smaller case inside weighs only (dimensionally) 14kg n 3kg.It's not like they wanted to protect the robot from shipping damage or anything like that for there was no airbag or polythene bubbles inside the super big box, just a lot of air,VERY EXPENSIVE air ah.
And Irobot messed up a little too, did not receive my free roomba 400 though they had it listed on their invoice,just made a call to irobot about it, the rep is very nice about it, says he would make a request for a replacement right away.Would see how that goes.
Anyhow, quite happy to get the robots amidst all the mishaps in between.

I dunno!!!

the box is 340, the warranty stated JEN340xxxxx but the Scooba body is having a serial number of JEN335xxxx

I suspect this seller is very dishonest. He bought 4 sets altogether, perhaps he just realized his used set is 335 so he swap it with mine...kns....

but I shall wait for his reply first. Maybe I will give him a call. I want my 340! sh*t sh*t sh*t!!!!!

I think I will just use it for the moment. I'm going to ask him clean up his 340 nice nice and ship it to me and I ship back his smelly 335!!! :mad:

anyway, the battery how ah? I dunno if it's being charged b4 and used b4....shall I charge another 16hr to it b4 I start using it?

well, i didn't know there is such a risk. In this case, would paypal protect the buyer? I am thinking of getting a refund. feeling cheated.

but then again, it may be him being mixed up with the robots....
