feelin blu-ray!
the saga continues.
apparently they tried to deliver the goods when i wasn't home. why they didn't tell me is beyond me. so it's been about 6 weeks since i received the phone call saying i'd won this competition way back in december.
what i'm trying to figure out is if i won this thing way back then, shouldn't the goods be sitting in some sort of prize cupboard ready to ship out to me? so i'm at work and i noticed a missed call from panasonic... i called the number and organised for the goods to be delivered on monday. unfortunately, she was unable to give me a delivery time, but i figured, i'm happy to wait a whole day to finally get the plasma and blu-ray recorder!
finally the TNT delivery truck pulls up. gen and i scream in excitement!! THE PLASMA! THE PLASMA!!!
the guy pulls up the roller door and brings out a small box. my face just goes blank. i waited the whole day for just the recorder? what's the freakin point. now i have blu-ray discs and a player, but no tv that will support them!! sooo DUM!
ok, well, i figure that i don't actually have a table to put the TV on, so i guess it'll give me more time to look. i also need to get another antenna point in the lounge room. i give jim's antenna's a ring. the guy comes out the next morning.
monday morning and jimmy pulls up and has a look.
"oh no, we've already got a problem!"
apparently the antenna is too old and is running ribbon cable through the wall. what i need is coaxial cable! he quotes me $400 for a new antenna, installation and 2 aerial points in the house! fucking pricey. and all this for me to watch HD TV on my new plasma! this shit doesnt end.
so jimmy rings up the real estate asking to speak to the property manager asking them to pay half of the fee because it's a basic service and eventually analogue signal will be switched off.
this is when i start to get a bit... hmmm... "this guy's a peice of work"
so he leaves and i decide to call another man to get a quote. then this guy says it's only gonna cost $190... whatever!!! the guy says he'll come out in a couple of hours and have a look and also give me a written quote that i can hand to the real estate.
2 hours later he rings up and says he isn't coming!!! ARGHHH!!!!
ok, i get over that hurdle and ring up panasonic and am informed that they have no more stock of the plasma that i was expecting and that they wont be getting anymore in until the end of the month. panasonic has no clue about my prize and the woman at disney or whoever looks after the prize isn't answering my emails!!!
will i ever see this TV??? and when will i get my K-RUDD900??
... waiting game!
