I placed a "canary order" with them last week and while I was told to expect my stuff on the 9th, it still has not arrived today. No tracking number has been provided either. I have emailed them twice this week without a response. I do not know if they are a scam or if they forgot to account for Finals Week or something. Since my order was placed on launch day, I'm giving them some time to get their stuff together, but they really need to improve their communication if they are legit. I will update in the reddit thread (as Scryb3) as I find out more, and continue to take appropriate action as needed. http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1dhfhi/bitandbuycom_get_your_favourite_apple_products/ (http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1dhfhi/bitandbuycom_get_your_favourite_apple_products/) Scrybe Title: Re: Bitandbuy.com - Buy Apple products easily with BTC Post by: scrybe on May 14, 2013, 07:26:15 PM Still nothing, these guys are a scam or very very bad at communicating.
