can i use masters gift card at dick smith?
Missed out
Saved money for another day
Shi-i-i-i-take mushrooms :(
I want mine now.
Ordered three items today and all have been processed and posted. Havent heard anything about my chromecast though!
Not sure about anyone else but my chromecast was shipped this morning. Should get it monday/tuesday
Mine is still processing, hmm
Ordered mine on Friday (15th) still Awaiting Fulfillment
mine hasnt shipped either
Checked on my tracking number and it gave me an item that was delivered back in 2009, lovely.
haha Dick up to his usual tricks. No wonder their eBay feedback score is crap with their incompetence. :)
Got mine this morning and ordered approx. 4:40pm Friday if it helps.
Got mine this morning and ordered approx. 5:30pm Friday if it helps
still Awaiting Fulfillment, ordered at ~6pm.
Ordered mine at 6.12pm and got the tracking number. But the tracking number can't be tracked. How will I know when will it be delivered?
Yeah my other orders can't be tracked either. I guess you won't know until you receive it!
My chromecast is still awaiting fulfillment
Yeah I got sent a tracking number Friday night but then also got a different one yesterday. Weird. Anyway it seems like it is coming now
Got mine this morning around 11am northern suburbs.
FYI Got mine today in Brisbane and it still says awaiting fulfilment on website.
did you get any shipment email or anything else? mine says the same havent had any emails. (in brisbane too)
Got mine today and somehow Dick managed to send me two for the price of one. Thanks Dick for rewarding an Ozbargainer!
Damn..me too! 2 for price of 1!
He probably scored some other ozbargainers chromecast. Dicks incompetency at its best. I hope the same thing happens to me, they owe me one. lol
Lets hope that happen mate!
Me three!
Note I got 2, but only ordered one..
Interstingly one shipped with Startrack the other with AAE. Some issue with their shipping allocations and one got allocated to each stream? Who knows. All I know is I now have a spare chromecast. lol
Yup, got two also. Both Startrack. One came locally (Brisbane), the other from Sydney.
Called them to return the second one.I thought about doing the same, as I have no need for a second one, but figure at $34 it's not worth their time to process, let alone my time to arrange the return.
I got a shipping confirmation just then
Checked my tracking number and it gave me an item that was delivered back in 2008.
Got shipping tracking on Saturday, now I'm worried…..Yep exactly the same with me except a tracking number for 2009, somewhat worried too as well since I think it should of been here now if it was 'shipped' on Saturday…
None of my tracking numbers actually work (three other items) … So I think it's just dick being dick. I'm sure that it will come eventually.
Well I have no faith with dick, he has been so unreliable with me. 2 out of my last 3 orders never were delivered. You don't want to dealing with their customer service, it's a joke. Waste hours on a phone to have someone redirect you somewhere else. Stupid me gave them another chance and now my tracking number shows nothing, so what's the bet dick doesn't delivers again?
"Unable to find the requested search reference. please try again.
If the reference cannot be found, please contact the sender to verify the reference or consignment number they have provided."
HAHA Whining on ozbargain, I'm sure that'll help. :D Damn forgot my meds this morning.
Got shipping confirmation today and came home it was already there. :)
received email yesterday late afternoon, arrived this morning, Brisbane CBD.
+1
Received mine today too, Brisbane CBD
Dick came through surprisingly. Now hopefully he can screw up in my favour and deliver a second one for me. lol I'm happy, no need to get greedy. Happy for all those that got a 2nd one for free and goodluck your new toy. :)
Got 2nd one today for free, thank you Dick! :)
Same here lol
As in you got one yesterday and today? What did the tracking say for the suppose only 1 item? Could be getting my hopes up to get a 2nd one now with quite a few people getting 2..
2 Chromecasts for $34 that what I call a steal! 1 for me and the other as a b'day pressie :D sorted. Farking winning!
OMG, I also just received a second one for free (the first was delivered this morning). Will make a nice gift. Thank you Dick! (But I'll be keeping an eagle eye on you just in case you double charge me. Edit: I used a gift card, so I suppose there's no chance of that.)
I also got a chromecast yesterday then a second one today. Thanks DSE! If they ask for it back I'll see if I can offer them $34 for the second one.
Hmm, interesting that some people have received two.
Did any of these lot get separate tracking details? I received 2 emails with tracking details, first on 17/8 second on 19/8, different Startrack tracking numbers, both still with status from 18/8 of "Consignment Events - Freight Manifest Transmitted" and "Article Events - Notified".
I would have expected some kind of further tracking status update by now - maybe mine just went to someone else …
hoping secretly for a second chromecast (as this one is not from star-track … its an AAE air mail one in a (white package … not blue)
… now if dick can send me a second 55" FHD 3D LED TV… that would make my week lol
hoping it arrives tomorrow haha
sounds like a stuff up with assigning orders to the right mail out companies
hm..mine still awaiting fulfillment and no email yet :(
sent email got this msg: Unable to submit your request. Please, try again later
Poor poor Dick, something seriously broke in their system. Looks like lots of people (me included) are getting 2 units for the price of one.
I got 2 units, delivered on 2 different days, via two different courier companies.
OK, this is entering WTF territory. I just received a third one for free today.
I'm flying out of the country tomorrow, and I'm getting visions of my doorstop being flooded with Chromecasts when I get back. :P
Wow.
Wow
haha fingers crossed i get another one :P
edit* ok i just checked my letterbox and startrack left a card for me. It is either my logitech speakers (which i was told today is still at the depo) or it is another chromecast!
Back from my trip. No more Chromecasts to report. :P
I bought one, and got an email on Monday that it was shipped. It's now end of Thursday, and the tracking link only just showed its first update, which says that the manifest was only received today! Is this normal behaviour from DSE, or was one of those duplicate chromecasts in the comments above supposed to be mine? :) Anyway, I emailed them to let them know about this discrepancy with the shipping and to double check that everything is fine with my order.
edit: emailed before I read this thread, otherwise I would probably have waited a bit longer in hope for a 2 for 1 deal :P less likely now with my order under scrutiny
I odered one. Not yet delivered.. Did any of you received your's ?
Thanks.. Hoping for two.. :)
I am also yet to receive mine…
Just called DSE and Startrack about my order, as I had been sent two tracking numbers but no chromecast. Startrack hadn't received anything other than the shipping details and DSE claimed it was already dispatched.
Got them to triple check with Startrack and their warehouse. Just received three convoluted invoices for it, so hopefully it is on its way! Would recommend calling up if you haven't yet received your order.
Three invoices? Maybe you'll receive three like me! Fingers crossed you'll receive at least one. :P
I'm amazed at the general incompetence on display here, by a company the size of DSE.
The Startrack woman I spoke to said she'd had 10 calls today about order stuff ups for DSE items bought a week ago.
They must have something seriously wrong with their order management system.
Ps. Three would be awesome! Shame the invoices don't quite seem to show that (more likely to show a $120 refund!).
Got another invoice this morning, getting a little out of control
Still waiting for mine. Calling on the DS Support line is a long wait.
I filled in the contact us webform on Sunday; got two invoices this afternoon with emails saying "Your order has been picked. Your order will be dispatched today", then a bit later this email:
"Hi xxxx,

Got the same email back re replacement. But no new invoices.
Got a call this evening to give me my new consignment number, sounds like they are genuinely trying to fix it.
I got a start track consignment number the very next day of the order. But star track website had no details about it. Contacted DSE and they told order status is actually "Ready for dispatch". Waited another week and called them yesterday. They said they are waiting for stock.. Got an email in the evening saying that the order is cancelled… Expecting more twist and turns.. The classic DSE online experience..
Finally a use for the free $20 Masters/WISH gift card* I got from that New Year's promotion they ran. :P
