GAMERKING.COM: INTERNET CONNECTION DIES BUT THEY GOT MY ORDER! Plus The Waiting Game Begins (2/4)
I nearly had a heart attack no thanks to my Internet connection which decided to die while I was in the middle of paying for my GamerKing.com order. That was over four hours ago and tech support was not picking up, raising my blood pressure even further.
So yeah, I placed an order and this is what I managed to capture before Verizon hiccuped - nay, CHOKED:
"Your order will be ready and waiting in your mail when you are back in the game." - Dudes, I really hope so. Because if Blizzard sniffs into my mail and sees the gold I ordered and deletes it, I won’t be happy!
Man, I should’ve asked Blake if they do redeliveries!
This is a nice array of payment options. I wish most sites would offer something aside from the deathless PayPal.
One more review of the shopping cart. Delivery type: "Guaranteed Delivery" . Read: "We can’t tell at this point".
So far so good. Now at the PayPal log-in page.

This name is giving me a case of déjà vu. Hmmmm….
But before I could go over my old posts AND as I hit the button to pay, disaster struck.
Holy crap!! ! I said to myself.
And which I basically said over and over while waiting for Verizon to resurrect itself. I couldn’t sleep and fretted like a lamb before the slaughter. Did my payment go through???
When I finally got around to connecting I immediately pounced on GamerKing’s Live Help like a madman and implored the agent to check if my order - and more importantly my payment - went into their system. Sunshine (that was her name) told me they sent me an email to confirm receipt of my order. And while I had her online, I asked if they always resend the gold should initial delivery fail. Fortunately, they do!! HALLELUJAH!!!
Then I checked my email and to my even greater relief found this:

Ok great. Whew!
But who’s Readyclickpay???
*yawns* Ah well, time to wait for my gold.
