Hi, I was just wondering if anybody has ever purchased or is currently waiting for their Lenovo y500.
I have purchased the Lenovo y500 with the dual 750m graphics on the last day of april and was expecting it to arrive sometime in late may; according to Lenovo.
Although today they just sent me an email saying it would be delayed over an month! I was not only disappointed but also a bit angry at the same time.
Why would they give me a ship date of around three weeks and then half way through the order make a huge change.
I am thinking about canceling my order. The email said exactly this:
Dear Valued Customer,
Thank you for your recent Lenovo purchase. Unfortunately
due to overwhelming demand, we are experiencing delays in
processing shipments for your system. We are making every
effort to fulfill your order.
I looked at the link they sent me and found out that it would not be shipping until 6/25/2013 and it would not arrive until 7/2/2013!
It was originally supposed to ship 5/16/2013 and arrive 5/21/2013.
Knowing that we will see some new things at computex and knowing that haswell is going to be released soon I was wondering if I should wait and buy something else and cancel my order or should I wait it out and hope for no more delays.
I would care to hear you input. Thanks.
