RASPBERRY Pi Order Placed !!

[adrianx]

Pfft..... it cost me R500..... not sure anyone would pay that (yes, I was one of the lucky ones to get screwed with a customs + DHL fee)

Nah, I'll find time to actually do something useful with it.

I only saw this now...

About a week before I got my Raspberry Pi, someone phoned me and wanted my email address. It was just one of those days, I didn't question him or even ask his name. He said that they will send a pro forma invoice or something like that.

Anyway, the Pi was delivered and there was no extra charge. A few days later I looked at the tax invoice attached to the package. It says:
1. Detach this payment advice and return it together with your payment.
2. Cheque should be crossed and made payable to DHL International (Pty) Ltd..

COD shipment - delivery on payment only.

There's no banking details on the invoice whatsoever - no branch codes or account numbers.

Should I just ignore the instructions given on the tax invoice, or what? I'm not sure.

You ignored it and got it? Mine was delayed until I paid

Yes, it was delivered to me on 3 July. I often don't even look at the documentation attached to the wrapping around my parcels.

Looks like I won't be getting one, They have been unresponsive for over two weeks as to where my order is... lodged a dispute with paypal last week, still no response, escalated to a claim today.

(think its around 2 months now)

What ever I paid, once landed - think it was around R150.

I also want to build a lego case but where can I get the random pieces for a good price?

BTW I ordered and paid for mine on the 20/06, still waiting for it to get dispatch. By the time it reaches me it won't be the flavor of the month/year.
