The Order

"The Order"… Ominous souding, ain't it? ^_^

Ordering so much crap on Amazon turned out to be a fairly big headache. Initially, I couldn't check out because of the amount of items I had in my cart. So I had to break the order down in small enough chunks for Amazon to digest. A major pain in the ass considering I had to remove each item from my cart one at a time. After that, it was smooth sailing. I happily placed my order and waited for it to proce… OH SON OF A BITCH, COME ON. Amazon couldn't process my payment on account of goddamnit I entered the wrong billing address, and thus promptly deleted my orders. So I had to reorder every damn thing. And because I like changing my mind, my 2nd order was slightly different than my initial one. But guess what? Again, I entered the wrong damn billing address. Luckily, the 3rd time was the charm. Naturally though, my order changed even more from what I initially planned. Afraid of entering the wrong billing address again, I would order a small handful of items and wait for the payment to process before deciding to continue ordering more items.

So here's the damage, and what I actually wound up ordering:

In other news, I'll be away for a short period of time. Later today I'll be selling my current laptop to a friend, so I'll be without a computer until my new laptop arrives. I ordered that thing on the 13th, and they said it would take 5-10 business days to build. Meaning it should theoretically be built by tuesday if it hasn't been already, then only god knows how long shipping will take.

He is a collector.

The real question is, where does he get all the money?

Stupid Amazon, placing and order there is like flipping a coin. Since I'm not American I can't tell Amazon to ship stuff directly to my country, instead I send everything to a special shipping company that then handles the shipping to me; they bill me a fixed rate per package (about $40). Well, about a month ago when I ordered 7 things from there, Amazon decided it was an awesome idea to split my order into FOUR shipments without any fucking notice. It wasn't fun to pay $160 only for shipping.
