One of my 3 drives was shipped and other 2 were canceled.

80GB shipped.
120GB and FreeAgent Pro 320GB FireWire/USB/eSATA External Drive canceled . All ordered before 11 PM EST last Sat.

I also ordered internal 160GB SATA last Fri (before these bargain fiasco last Sat). Placed order larte Fri and it was shipped Fri via UPS from Ft Worth, TX.

2 of my 6 drivers got shipped. others are cancelled.

Just checked my order and it was cancelled as well (only ordered 1 of the 120 gigs). Damn.

Both my orders cancelled, got one cancellation email, one was cancelled without an email notification. sucky

When I placed my order on Seagate.com, I used my Chase credit card. That card didn't go thru as other people reported. So I used Capital One credit card which I never use for anything. Tonight, when I checked Capital One credit card account there is some unauthorized charge for $122.xx from Overstock.com. I never purchased from Overstock.com. Also, I never used this Capital one credit card in past 9 months. I am suspecting, some one from Seagate.com got my payment info and used it?

Anyone else had this issue? Purchase from Seagate.com order amount(+ $5.xx) is still pending. Check your credit card transactions.

Canceled!

"We would like offer you a special promotion to accommodate you for any inconvenience. For a limited time (through September 5, 2008), you will be eligible to receive a 10% discount off the sales price of your next order from Seagate.com. Simply type in the promo code ******** during checkout to take advantage of this offer."

Right, a 10% off coupon doesn't make up for free shipping and a killer deal.

Thanks Seagate.

Canceled without an explanation. Seagate Sucks...

Pretty bad to cancel an order 4 DAYS after it was made of a product that was in stock at the time. The 10% off coupon is worthless.

Pretty weak. Both of my 120gb drives were cancelled. Seagate, you're a huge company and you can't even keep track of your own inventory? I find that hard to believe. They probably just kept most of the stock back.

On to Western Digital.

Canceled. I wrote the following in their comment form (I suspect the reply will be "thank you for the response... sorry for the inconvenience... enjoy your life"):

Sir/Madam,

I just received notice that my order with Seagate (#30000xxxxx) has been canceled due to "high demand." I am not happy.

First, let's discuss high tech, and the concept of online, real time inventory. It's been in use by many companies for many years. I expect a high tech company such as Seagate to use such "advanced" technology.

Second, you entice buyers to your site with a deal, then renege on the deal, and offer a lousy 10% discount on an order in the next week?!? I don't want a 10% discount on a full priced item that I must hurriedly buy in the next week - I want the external hard drive that we made a deal on earlier this week.

Yes - we made a deal. I ordered the item, and Seagate put a hold on my credit card for the agreed upon amount. Because of Seagate, I DID NOT HAVE USE OF THOSE FUNDS. In fact, I still do not have use of the funds as of the writing of this note. As far as I am concerned, that is the same as my paying you for the item.

I don't want a 10% discount - I want that hard drive. If you cannot deliver that hard drive due to sub-par order/sales practices at Seagate, then I will accept at item of equal quality/capacity/utility for the same amount you have already hit my credit card for.

I have been a happy customer of Seagate int the past, having purchased and used both Seagate internal and external storage devices. I have also recommended purchase of the same devices at work, and to friends and family. I hope you will do the right thing and keep this customer happy.
