mbrobe Posted July 30, 2004 Report Share Posted July 30, 2004 Who thinks it will actually ship within these dates! I can't take it anymore I want my birthday present! Shipping estimate: Aug 6, 2004 - Aug 13, 2004 Delivery estimate: Aug 9, 2004 - Aug 16, 2004 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveOooo Posted July 30, 2004 Report Share Posted July 30, 2004 i know its hard to believe that there actulay gonna ship the bloody things! dixons have august 13th as their release date for the nh1&nh900 so yes THEY WILL ARRIVE in no more than 14 days! any new on the nh900 shipping / price from amazon uk?

Christopher Posted July 30, 2004 Report Share Posted July 30, 2004 NH900 should be out before the NH1 AFAIK. I would expect it to ship perhaps a half-week to a week before? Has anyone in the UK got a NH900 on pre-order that can give us a little more insight to this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwakrz Posted July 30, 2004 Report Share Posted July 30, 2004 Well it should be ok. The release date did slip a bit but still looks to be on target. Sony has, on the UK website, said that today (30/7) is the official release date for them but stated delivery in 14 days??? hmmm. I have had a pre-order with Amazon since 14th June (god it has been that long) and the NH1 is holding up a few things as I refuse to pay for each item to be delivered seperatly.

marcnet Posted July 30, 2004 Report Share Posted July 30, 2004 I pre-ordered a mz-nh1 from www.be-direct.co.uk For £189.99 . With free postage. Bargin eh? I didnt know if that price is correct so I phoned to pre-order. They said "Yes. It is correct". They told me mid to end of august as well. Oh, and if the price goes up on their site - they say they wont need me to pay the difference. If it goes down they will refund the difference. Downside is that I live 110 miles from where my card is registered and they will only deleiver to the card registration address. So I payed by cheque to get it delivered to work, when its in stock. And I was gonna buy one in Dixons for £280 .... Good job I didnt eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveOooo Posted July 30, 2004 Report Share Posted July 30, 2004 i did email them (BE Direct) with the following, "Could you tell me please when you expect to be shipping the Sony nh900 hi-md unit? Also, if i place my order now, will i be charged straight away or only charged when the item is shipped?" i guess its early to mid august but do BE Direct charge your credit card asap- rather than waiting for the item to be dispatched? is it worth emailing amazon to find out when they get theres (maybe cheaper than be direct - certainly a company i can rely on) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jadeclaw Posted July 30, 2004 Report Share Posted July 30, 2004 I think BE-Direct has it definitely wrong. NHF800, NH900 and the NH1 have the same price - UKP189,99 Dixons 280 pounds is much more realistic, let's see if BE-Direct lives up to it's promises....

Qwakrz Posted July 31, 2004 Report Share Posted July 31, 2004 Thats one of the reasons I amstaying with Amazon, they may not be the cheapest but I know the store as I have used before & I dont think BE have it right & you may have to fork out some more money or have the order cancelled. Good luck though & if you do get it, I will be the one out of pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbrobe Posted July 31, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2004 Sorry I posted that twice. Pretty funny, I just sent them an email asking if they had a more exact date and they waived the 20.00 overnight shipping. Now it is at 399.00 plus they $50.00 promotion. Pretty good deal I think. Too bad I have to wait for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
