vpostusa and vpost sg always got co-ordination problems, wait for mon/tue for them to update status again.

comgateway also quite slow in updating status.

actually if u have sent them the invoice, i think they will send email to u asking u to pay... not to worry that the item will get lost...

suggest you get a transformer.

Only when you have bought another one, then you can play with the spare adapter.

oh okay... hahaha... btw, none of u check with local distri on how much they sell for the adaptors?

I now really hope Woot dun write anything regarding battery included inside the performa invoice...

Dont count on VPost to provide timely updates, they cant even provide correct updates. I got a shipment which arrived VpostUSA on 09/01/2008. I followed up with the invoice on 10/01/2008 (shipper was so near VpostUSA that the product arrived faster than the invoice!). Website only reflected item received when i checked on 11/01/2008. Thereafter, no updates all the way until i picked up the phone to call Vpost. Have the cheek to tell me item has been matched to invoice on 11/01/2008 and nothing done to update status, nor anything done to allow me to make payment. After the hoo-ha, finally managed to make payment and the status of the item became:

Payment made: 15/01/2008
Item left VpostUSA: 11/01/2008

Go figure!

Its bad that their service is sloppy but its adding fuel to fire when they provide incorrect information/status update.

reach vpost already

wtf!!!!! so expensive!?!?!??!?! they can go and rob Citibank!!! hmm... if so expensive, i rather fly it in from irobot.com and mod it or use transformer...

$250... no wonder it's not selling well in singapore... i wonder how much is needed to be a distributor of irobot... cos if US can sell at such price, add in shipping cost, i don't think the current market price justify...

clorox not available in sg.

You can use kiwi kleen blue instead, big big bottle, $5-6 at supermarket.

Only 5900 need these solution. Other models can use tap water only.

Saxman, if it is any consolation at all, my order from Irobot was shipped on 17th Dec, reached Vpost on 8th Jan (didn't know at the time that i could opt for 2 days shipping free so got the normal ground shipping) then only one box got out of US yesterday, the other still sitting in their store house.Called Vpost n was informed that due to its over weightage, will take 3 weeks to ship.So, all in all , in this unfortunate case, total shipping will probably take around 2 months lor. It is unusual for USPS to take more than 5 days to ship within US, think it is due to the Christmas festive mess.

You mean there is an option for 2 days shipping free? sighx.
Just placed my order as well. Shipped on 15/1 from irobot. Wonder if it'll arrive in time for CNY.

yes i agree...but


if this toy got exposure ..like ads with freebies or stuff...i bel;ieve ple will buy in this country espcially WE working ple have no time to clean our hse....sometimes...

i didn't notice this product till i see this thred....

 

[sAxman_Returns]

yeah yeah, extra exposure, and all add in to the final cost

then will end up even more expensive than existing overpriced products with stupid local warranty already.

Please, people need to make a profit in order for a business to survive. If no profit, what's the point?

no time to clean the house? maybe you shall drop by OG and have some Auntie-Uncle roadshow. < $20 can get you something from Japan to clean your close within 10mins easily....

I bought the Scooba coz no matter how I mop, my floor is still sticky......just want to see if it's more effective....
