This is good advice, but I would add if at first you don't succeed, hang up, then call back and talk to a different CS rep. Re Amazon customer service in general, I ordered a movie from their instant video on demand a few weeks ago, paid for it, watched it, enjoyed it, and that was that. A...

Thank you!

sorry, double post

I guess they won't be matching BB's Walking Dead Season Two for $19.99?

Wondering if anyone here uses PSN to watch episodes of the latest TV... I cut the cords to my cable last year for budget reasons and since then have been getting a lot of shows "a la carte" through PSN or Amazon. I noticed Amazon seems to be a lot better at putting episodes of TV up as soon as...

When I called them they wouldn't tell me anything but did say that when their fraud dept makes contact in the next few days, then I'll have the chance to ask those questions. Thanks again to all for the input. That free credit monitoring idea is something that hadn't occurred to me, dohdough...

Ok, thanks to all of those who posted helpful responses. A little calmer today; having slept on it, I realized many many people probably go through this, and I shouldn't really panic. I checked two of the three main credit reports, looks like the only problem area right now on either of them is...

Kind of freaking out right now, hoping someone here can help me because I have absolutely no idea what to do. Just got a letter in the mail addressed to me. It's a bill from Sears Credit Cards in my name. The name is spelled correctly and the address is basically correct, but it doesn't have my...

Thanks to all, esp crax (the Tivo code will really help out if I go for that service) and mogamer. I'll check out the Magnavox, although I won't lie, I was hoping I could get a basic DVR that would just record single on the air shows once in while for $100- $150. I guess I was asking for too...

Also, can anyone recommend a good solid standalone DVR that would work well with HD antenna free over-the-air TV programming WITHOUT needing any kind of monthly payment, subscription etc, i.e. a DVR where you only pay once for the hardware and that's it?

Thanks for your reply, I really appreciate it. Sounds from the responses that the Leaf Ultimate would be a good choice. I looked into the Roamio, sounds neat. The basic one is $150 on Amazon right now (down from $200), not sure how long it'll last, do you think that's a good deal? I couldn't...

Thanks for the input, guys. We've discussed it and we do need a DVR to catch the network TV that we want to watch when we're out. It's not that we want to keep much, but here's some stuff (like daytime shows) that doesn't even show up on Hulu or any other service, so basically the DVR is needed...

Pretty pissed right now. Had two separate auctions for PS1 Japanese import game lots closed due to "Listing policy violation alert: copyright violation - Unauthorised Item", according to the email they sent. I have no idea why they did that. The games are in acceptable disc-only condition i.e...

Thought I would get some input from the CAGs. My SO is not going to be employed for much longer, and that's our main source of income, so basically we're being forced to give up non-essential bills. Plus frankly, the cost of our monthly TV service has slowly been spiralling out of control for a...

So I opened the case, looks like the buyer has 7 days to respond. And now I wait...

Thanks for the input, and sorry you had that crappy experience. Sounds like a similar scam, except with gift card codes instead of physical items. Unless something else unexpected happens, I'm going to do exactly what you mentioned: open a case, say it's "no longer for sale" (without...

Decided to ask at CAG since I find the people here generally more trustworthy than official ebay shills. So anyway, I'm a fairly low volume ebay user, with a perfect feedback score of over 170 positives (from a little buying/mostly selling). I have heard the horror stories about shipping...

What was it, a banning?

Aren't they supposed to start sending the emails with $10 codes out on the 12th (tomorrow)? I think it's an emailed code, but I could be wrong. Pretty sure it's not just automatically added to your wallet- I should be getting 10 into my PSN acct, but I just checked and the total balance is the...

Thanks for the advice. I never thought of Craigslist, actually. And cash it is. What about if I'm offered a cashier's check though? Also, dumb question I guess, but if they ask to take it for a test drive, then obviously I would I insist on being in the passenger seat.... Or is it a bad idea to...
