If the seller is based in china or the product is not fulfilled by Amazon let the buyer beware he may have to wait/fight for his money back, and the likelihood of it shipping is slim to none.

Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

I just got two calls from 000-000-0000 and a restricted number, wonder if that was them (I didn't answer)

Legitimate request, and he handled it honestly.
Yep. He called me as well.

He called me from a private number.

Just called again, no good Shabbos to me. Still offered me the memory card for free though.

He knew about DD - asked where I had heard about this and I just said online. He said "Dansdeals?"

One of the previous people he spoke to probably told him.

Got the same call with the good shabbos.

Just got a email as well but it said he cancelled my 8 orders. I only ordered 1 so unclear what he meant by that.

Got the same email. I'm guessing he sent it to everyone (whether intentional or not).

If only 65 were ordered, 100% of them must've been DDF. Good job, guys. Oy.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Oy vey. Please everyone cancel your own orders.

Or better yet tell him to fill the order with an SD card or something and you'll rate it and him 5 stars :))

Already cancelled, but is there a penalty of sorts for a seller cancelling? Seems to me it'd be easier for them to cancel all the orders than to call and email even 20 different people.
