I purchase a $4.49 mouse pad from some guy on ebay. Ordered it on 11/27/10.... "Estimated Delivery: 12/30/10"

FFS its a mouse pad! Stuff that shit in an envelope and send it already. Are they kidding? a month to receive a mouse pad...

I send a video card to Australia and the guy receives it in less than 2 weeks. And mouse pad takes a month Confused

Thats different though. For headphones you would actually need to package it well. But Im sure a mouse pad can handle a beating during the shipping process. They can send it to me in an envelope, I wouldnt mind

They probably list items they don't really have, and only buy them themselves once they get an ebay purchase for it. And during christmas time the HK/China mail grinds to a complete halt, I wouldn't bother ordering anything now if you want it fast.

Maybe it was something like this and he was too embarrassed to buy it from a local store? Laughing

WEll, maybe they apply the amazon policy...

I order my books @ amazon.com instead of .co.uk (and i am from belgium, mm kay?) That dollars is worth nothing, so cheap books for me. "Expected shipping time: 6 weeks".

3 days later, books get delivered. ALWAYS. Laughing They probably even ship them from co.uk or somewhere else. hahah

Lol well they had good prices. The mouse pad was only $4.49 and shipping was $2.99. Everywhere else, mouse pads are over $5

I haven't owned a mouse pad in about 10 years so I wanted a cool one. This one was a cool metal gear solid 4 mouse pad. Had nice colors and good price!

No matter where you order from, they always ship from the closest center. I always order from co.uk, yet I get books from the german amazon.

Lol ignore the shipping cost. I just went back to the ebay page and now it says:

"This seller is currently away until December 27, 2010, and is not processing orders at this time. You can add this item to your watch list to purchase later. "

$4.49 + $2.99 = $7.48 = ALREADY OVER $5 + a long ass wait to get the damn thing

Damn, you could afford a pointless "upgrade" from a 470 to a 480, yet you can't buy a simple mouse pad around the corner because you're so cheap you order from Hong Kong which in the end is MORE expensive than buying locally due to shipping.

What upgrade? Lol I never owned a GTX 470 in my life.

If youre referring to my previous videocard which was a GTX 480 superclocked+ that I sold for $500+$50 shipping to an Australian guy and purchased a GTX 480 hydro copper for $370. Then yes, I was definitely able afford this upgrade with cash left over Razz

And local mouse pads are lame. They are like $10 and boring lookin!

Exactly Smile

I want a permanent mouse pad therefore it has to be exciting and not dull. I dont wanna look at some dull pad for the next 10 years. It would be quite annoying
