So Could someone who is bored do me a favor and call prizelogic and ask when your information was sent over to the fulfillment facility? Newest update is that mine was sent there 6/9 even though I am a 3/9 submitter (3 months is ridiculous)

AEJ123, I already know...they told me when I called a couple weeks ago. I submitted 3/11& my status showed approved on 3/25. I got the approval email on 4/7. On the call, PL originally told me 4/8 was the day I was approved. After I told them that I got the email on 4/7, so why would I get the email the day before if I wasn't approved until 4/8. They changed & said, they meant that 4/8 was the day my info was sent to the '3rd party shipper'. Of course, they also told me that there were 4 levels of approval, which we know is BS. How could your info not be sent until 6/9? 6/9???
I've been told it has been at shipment since 4/6 but now it was showing I'm their computer that it was sent over 6/9 and I should have by no later than June 22nd. It's all just upsetting. I'm curious to see what someone who has had a watch ship or a label created gets as far as an answer if they'd ask when it was sent to fulfillment

Maybe they're throwing in a 1lb bag of twizzlers in ours to get 2.6lbs?? *fingers crossed* lol
Ok just checked my Fed Ex Delivery Manager and I have a package coming from brightpoint that is 1.4lbs and I'm supposed to be getting the watch which I have been told is 0.9lbs so I'm guessing my nightmare is about to get worse as I was sent a VR?
I'm afraid you are correct. I got a VR last week and it was 1.4lbs. I have two watches on the way now and the weight is 1.6lbs.
I had a label created in FDM on 6/3, watches didn't actually ship from IN until 6/5 and they arrived in WV on 6/8. Samsung's site updated from "pending" to giving me an actual tracking number the day after I received the watches.
I got the sm-r730v dark grey, appears to be the 3G model. Guess I may need to go and activate it. Was only expecting the Bluetooth model.
The SM-R720 appears to be the Bluetooth only model from my very basic research.

You don't have to activate it if you don't want to. I'm using mine as Bluetooth only. I just turned off the mobile network, and each time the phone is powered on I just hit no when it asks about activating it.
That's basically what I am doing as well. I think I will probably just use it as a Bluetooth. I won't really utilize it away from my phone except as a watch. I mostly want it so I don't need to access my phone in certain situations, and of course check the time.
UPDATE: FDM is showing item in transit. Expected Delivery date 6/17. Weight 1.4 lbs, and should the VR. Or perhaps the watch and a package of twizzlers as mentioned previously.

A bag of twizzlers is the LEAST they could do for us... lol
I have come to the conclusion that I may not see until next month. I have not called PL in the last few weeks simply because I am sick of the same bs answers. On the flip side I finally received the BOGO rebate today.
Somewhere on planet earth!

Just talked to Prizelogic about the potential that I may get a VR and not a watch and they are gonna send me a return label via email and exchange it for the correct gift. Hopefully this isn't all bs and I just get the watch on Wed.

I was told over and over again on multiple occasions that I was getting the watches. That's even what they told me in a voicemail after they "coincidentally" called me out of the blue the day after I submitted a complaint to IngramMicro... lol. I don't know how they actually called my number either. My wife is the main account holder (we get a discount because of where she works) and I don't even think the copy of the receipt for MY phone got to them. Just the one with my wife's number on it. Oh well. We shall see, but I'm glad to see that they're not being resistant on getting the wrong gift replaced. (Though who knows how many more months that will be...)
