OrangesOfCourse Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Oh I see. What is the difference between ground & overnight shipping? If a package is headed to my zip code by ground, does it mean I won't get it before 10:30AM, like an overnight shipment would? I'm not sure the exact time frame for ground but i think it's before 9pm (maybe even 10pm these days). Also: The package that I was tracking was delivered... just not to me... :( Maybe the next one? I've never really had good luck with these things...

I've heard that they sometimes hire an Ethiopian runner to hand deliver the package under certain circumstances. jk :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/959472-official-cr-48-chromeos-laptop-shipment-tracking/page/27/#findComment-593494508 Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is trying to warn people about buying CR-48's on eBay, since anyone selling them is violating their user agreement. I'm actually wondering if the seller will get smacked with the sales percentage that eBay takes from every auction. At a couple of percent, he might have a multi-hundred dollar bill added to his seller charges tab. Obviously the bidder won't pay that price, but I wonder how it all works out for the seller. Though, I'm sure crap like this happens all the time on eBay.

He specifically warns people NOT to bid on the auction, but of course some people, being the morons that they are, still bid on it.

Tanshin Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Here's another good one: http://cgi.ebay.com/Google-Cr-48-Laptop-READ-DESCRIPTION-/130464831241?pt=Laptops_Nov05&hash=item1e604f5709#ht_500wt_1156 I love the fact that somebody is going to report the auction because what he's doing is against the policy of ebay, and when the warning the guy made is about people who are not only going against the policy of ebay, but against the TOS from Google. Yay for idiots! And another one: http://cgi.ebay.com/Google-CR-48-Notebook-CR48-/320630449778?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4aa7106672 That's just downright hilarious. I do wonder if you can do all of that on the notebook... Next thing you know we'll have potato chips with burns that look like a Cr-48 instead of Jesus. Prowled the tracker and there are still no packages going anywhere near me.

The question isn't why the auction exists... it's why it has 36 bids and is currently at $11100.

Tanshin Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 People just like to be funny and make fools of themselves. I guarantee that most of the people putting those QAs on there are sellers of a notebook, were wishing to sell them, felt like being total jerks, wanted to look smart but failed, or a combination of the above.
