    My Tabs are on backorder. That's better than being cancelled. My filler items have shipped and should be here on Wednesday, though. :rolleyes:

    Thank you for shopping with SkyMall. We regret to inform you that due to unexpected demand the item listed below is currently on backorder. We apologize for any inconvenience and anticipate this item to ship on or before Sat, Oct 15, 2011.

    Again as an update - $459 is EZ sell price at EBAY (I would start higher all!). Only 2 left in 24hrs.

    If we can get the price match via SAMSCLUB unit and get $21 back each I will net out over 200,000 miles FREE for this deal! Will advise what "Aaron - aka - skymall guy" says about match and miles!

    GREAT NEWS!:
    EDIT WE ARE GOOD TO GO! From Aaron:

    "Thank you for your continued patience. I was able to confirm that we do match any advertised price on merchandise at stores similar to Sam’s Club and Costco. I have given our Price Match department a heads up about some expected requests to come in so that we can handle the volume of these requests in a timely manner. I will also be personally assisting them with the processing of these requests.

    Please don’t hesitate to contact me back if you have any additional questions and concerns.

    ALSO

    The SkyMall Guarantee policy does not override your promotional offer. If you are able to find the same order you purchased at SkyMall a better price, then please submit it and we will be more than happy to research and refund the difference."

    Go get'em kids! What a deal!

    Well I sold my last one. Here are my numbers (pre price match that could help by $210).

    Net income after EBAY+PAYPAL+S&H was $4101 thus lost $899 all in or a cost of buying 260,000 miles of:
    (the extra 10k from C1 card I did my buy with)

    .0035/mile <------ Not bad! Happy man!

    BTW sold them all in 24 hrs. My selling price of $459 was too low. I would start at $469 kids and accept $459 or more!

    I have a buyer who wants 3 if anyone has some they want to move I will PM you their email!

    Too soon. Takes at least 4 weeks after shipping to you. Last year it took 6 or 7 weeks. You will get them but it does take time.

    An update from the great people at SKYMALL:

    --------------------------------------------------

    In regards to the mileage posting, the timeframe for posting is within 6-8 weeks after the last item ordered has been shipped. I am currently doing an audit of all orders made during the promotion and I am preparing them for a manual upload to the corresponding Delta SkyMiles accounts.

    Due to the large number of orders placed, I will have to do these in weekly batches in ensure that these get posted with a timely manner.I will be uploading the first batch late next week. I will have all miles posted for all customers no later than 11/18/2011 which is approximately 8 weeks after the promo end date.


    ---------------------------------------------------

    So worst case we have one more month to wait kids! - I tell ya - these guys are TOPS!
