I placed an order with toysrus.com on Dec 1 and I am still getting "in the
warehouse" as my order status.  An email inquiry got a "sorry for the slow
service, it'll be there by Christmas" response.  Is anyone else having these
problems?

Lucky you.  I made an order almost 3 weeks ago.  After it had been a week and I
hadn't heard anything, I tried calling the TRU.com toll free number.  Every
time I called the number it kept disconnecting me.  Once I got sick of that I
emailed TRU.com's "customer service."  I told them that because they were
taking so long I needed to change my mailing address because I was moving for
Christmas break.  When they didn't respond within 2 days, I sent another
message.  The last thing I did before I moved was checked my email and they had
finally emailed back.  The message said they had sent the order.  So now I've
moved, don't have what I ordered, and TRU.com's "customer service" doesn't
respond to any of my emails.  I'm glad it wasn't a big order.
  So for anyone that is thinking of buying toys online, my advise is don't use
TRU.com.

(...) I would be hesitant to make *any* online (or mail order for that matter) purchase if I was planning a move within the next month or two. I've ordered from TRU.com three times now and have had no problems other than slow delivery. Doug (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) I finally got a response e-mail wise saying that they will do a FEDEX overnight here. Since my order started November 22nd, I guess it is OK to ship it like that, but they should have known better. Oh well, c'est la vie! Scott S. (25 years ago, 20-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
