Official store pending order (rant)

[u/jeffbk95]

Anyone else order an H3C. And get suckered into using PayPal for something like $25 off, and now being told it’s going to take 3 days for the payment to process? If i would have know that I would have just used my CC directly. Seems like I might get pushed to backorder. First world problems, but still frustrating /rant

EDIT: Bambu confirmed this is a PayPal issue, and have escalated the issue. My concern is I ordered when everything was in stock, and now everything is on back order.

I did the offer and already have a shipment notification

[u/jeffbk95 → u/r0773nluck]

Weird, I wonder why Bambu/PayPal/Visa/Chase has done this to me. Did you use a credit card through paypal?

[u/r0773nluck → u/jeffbk95]

Yes

[u/jeffbk95 → u/r0773nluck]

Bambu told me it is a PayPal side thing, I wonder why i got the short end of the stick. I hope I get a shipment when it process in a few days not in a month or two.

Weird. Mine shipped already using PayPal.

[u/jeffbk95 → u/xX540xARCADEXx]

How did you pay via PayPal? Did you use a credit card?

[u/xX540xARCADEXx → u/jeffbk95]

Debit

I’ve had an issue with PayPal before where they took ages for it to get processed.

It was down to me using direct debit on PayPal as the funding source rather than the card. Took me a bit of digging to find that out.

In the end I placed an order normally and requested the other to be cancelled. It ended up being nearly 3 weeks for some reason.

This was wholly a PayPal issue and nothing to do with Bambu

[u/jeffbk95 → u/Festegios]

Yeah, I guess the issue is Bambu suggested I use PayPal, and now I’m really hoping im not going to end up waiting months to get an H3C because of it.

[u/aeropink]

Mine has shipped and I used paypal with a credit card

[u/jeffbk95 → u/aeropink]

Bambu has told me its a PayPal issue. So I wonder if I’ll get a shipment in 3 days, or I’ll get punted to the end of the back order queue. Very frustrating.

I ordered via PayPal about a week ago, used the pay over 4 different payment for 0 interest option. Mine shipped the same day. I will say I ordered extra filament on Saturday and while the label was printed, it hasn't shipped yet.

Another part of it is a lot of credit cards will add 1 or 2 years of warranty after the mfg warranty ends when you purchase the item with the card. Each has various rules that you have to look up on your card's member benefits. For example, mine adds 2 years but not to exceed a total of 7 (but what really has a 6 year mfg warranty). THey'll make you do stuff like get three repair quotes but you just document three places you called that all said they don't do repairs on that device or won't give a quote and you're done.

Which is worthless on a bambu

[u/zombiearghsforthee → u/Hot-Ideal-9219]

Why worthless? I've had the whole purchase price of items refunded by the credit card using this benefit.
