Too Good to be True

I don't know if you have ever received any E mail for a Great deal on a computer but I found out that is what it was just a deal that I could not say no to. My wife has a computer that is just plain old and that is all there is to it. I was thinking of doing some kind of up grade for her when I get this add in my E mail for a Dell computer with an AMD 4000 processor and a 19" wide monitor all for $529 I say to my self if this is not a smoking deal I don't know what is. I get a ship date of 8/20/07 and when the day comes I get a notice in my E mail that they pushed the dated back a week because of a lack of supplies. On this notice I see a link where I can go and read about why my purchase was pushed back a week. There I find a geniric excuse that is just a bunch of ya da ya da stuff about supplies but nothing that reall pertains to my order. Then I see that there are some customer E mails about how pissed that they are and expressed my feelings. I thought to my self I'm not going to let them back out of a deal I can wait this was supposed to be a gift for my wife and I'm willing to wait to get my deal. Then I remember a friend of mine that went through much of the same to get a lap top out of them and buy the time it came it had a bunch of stuff on it like extra ram and a DVD burner that he didn't order but all for the same price. I figure I can wait a week and when I get my next excuse E mail I can start moaning about how I'm beinig done wrong and who knows they might send me the wrong machine like my friend to shut me up. Then my next thought was they could send me something that was a downgrade from what I ordered and then I would be stuck with something I didn't want. I just took a look at my retirement clock and I only have 126 days to wait out dell and I hope that is enough time. :)
