Why does the Toshiba 42TL515U Take so long to ship? I ordered the Toshiba 42TL515U from Amazon and it says it will be 1-3 months before it ships? Does anyone know why and if it may come before that?

Wow -- I'm sure glad I ordered this at the 649.99 price now (still waiting. though)! And, Big Moe, did you save that email from Newegg??? Try forwarding (or attaching) it to Amazon C.S. and don't mention the coupon code. You might get a surprise???

Yeah, I am hoping they ship sooner than advertised. Would love to have this set for the Superbowl in 3D! We'll see ... I am praying.Come on Japan or where ever you are made!!

Yeah, I saw that they were matching Walmart's price too. But who wants to deal with Walmart? Not me. No thanks. been there, done that, and never again. I know if I have any problem, Amazon's C.S. will take care of me.Also, I used to work at Best Buy selling HDTV's and while there are better units out there performance wise at this size (around 40"), none do as much as this Toshiba for the money. In fact, you would have to pay at least double or triple to see a major difference in performance with the higher end models with similar specs.Frankly, I don't know how Walmart and Amazon are making any money at all on these . . .

My guess is that $650 for a TV like this is a pretty good bargain and they oversold them.

They're matching walmarts price, and if you order from THEM, you'll get it in a week.

Update #2.I sent a few emails to customer support and they told me estimated shipping of Nov 30 (my order was on Nov 5). Then I got another email saying my laptop would ship sooner than expected, sometime around Nov 14. Then I got another email saying they shipped my laptop today Nov 9 and arriving Nov 13. So, not bad for something that had a 1 to 2 month delay. YMMV.

After two frustrating conversations with customer support, I was later told over email that my Aspire 1810T-8679 would ship on Nov. 23... exactly one month after the anticipated arrival date of my original order. However, Amazon generously offered to wave my $3.99 overnight shipping charge. I cancelled the Amazon order and have one arriving tomorrow from another website.

Hello, Naser. chances are, like me, you got a "reconditioned" battery, and not a brand new one from Toshiba directly, correct? As I had found out, after about a year from purchase, my Toshiba battery would only hold about 90 minutes of a charge, so I went to Amazon, and got a replacement. I was thrilled when I first charged it up and got over 3 hours of battery life! After 3-4 months, however, it dropped to less than an hour! I complained to the company here in CA. and was told that it was a reconditioned battery, which means that it is not as good as an original! If you want to pay over $100.00 for a new battery, contact Toshiba directly, but even they will not guarantee their batteries either! Sorry for your problems! Greg Stone

^ My estimated ship date has been at January 5th since I ordered. To be honest, the other stores that are already shipping - have only shipped out 32GB units (which Amazon has also done) - who knows what the true stock story is on the 64GB units...

Hi, thank you for your interest in this product!We shipped units to Amazon on 2/25. It looks like one of their fulfillment centers has received and started shipping units, but some of their fc's have not. We shipped more than enough units to cover the pre-order demand, so if you have pre-ordered, your unit will ship as soon as Amazon receives them (though I believe you may get a confirmation email from Amazon first).Thanks again!

They started doing this to me 6 months ago. I don't mine waiting but, they should say in stock with delay shipping so I can choose to buy else where. I just order a Blu-Ray player 5/4 will not ship until the 13th. I am not buying warehouse is so big crap. I buy a lot from NewEgg and they have 3 big ones and it is always shipped the day I place a order or next business day. This will make me look more in to Buy.com if they keep this up.

Hi Zach, we shipped Amazon a large quantity of the UL20A on Friday 11/6, they should be receiving them starting on the 9th or 10th (some shipped to W. coast, some shipped to E. coast). So they should start shipping from Amazon by Wednesday. Thanks!

amazon generally overshoots their estimated delivery dates. most times i've found things to arrive anywhere from 3-5 sooner than the projected time frame (if you used the super saver/standard shipping method). either way, i think the question has been answered

Just ordered mine today (6/15), sure wish there was SOME ETA as my old HP laptop is on the fritz. I can't believe the deal on this thing, almost $1000.00 off the HP price. I wonder if the price has something to do with the lack of ETA? Anyways, here's to hoping there will be some ETA soon. PS: I did call Amazon before I ordered, they had no ETA =(

Good luck getting service from Toshiba's authorized service shops! It was a nightmare for me. (see post re: audio sync problem for my update.) Also, if you are even remotely dissatisfied with the item's performance, do not wait to return it to Amazon. Returned items have to be actually received by Amazon by the deadline. Items like this that are shipped via freight (Eagle) present a bigger problem to return. Expect resistance from Amazon! Again, GOOD LUCK.

Toshiba calls it a "one year standard warranty." Amazon doesn't offer a warranty specifically, it's more of a return policy.

I spoke with customer service right now and they double checked. Unfortunately there is absolutely no ETA on the item. Is it even possible to get the ASUS U50Vg-B1 model which IS in stock and put a 500GB HDD, the 2.53GHz Intel P8700 Core 2 Duo Processor and the Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit) Operating System? I mean.. Thats the only difference between them.. I would assume its possible and would be great if they would since we have been waiting so long for this product. Its about to be a month since its been released.. Help us! lol :(

Yeah I know, it's terrible how long it's taking honestly. It's now the 18th, and it still says not yet shipped, since tomorrow is Friday, and they don't do weekend shipping, it'll be 22nd on Monday and it STILL won't be in I'm pretty sure, unless they ship it later tonight and it comes in tomorrow...With the RAM difference and with how long I've been waiting already I'm gonna have to stick with Amazon myself.

I preordered this from Amazon when it became available, and got an e-mail yesterday saying that the expected delivery date was the 13th. Since I picked overnight shipping, I take that to mean that they expect to ship my order by Monday, but obviously can't confirm that this is going to happen.Edit: Like those below, got the order update the day after it should have shipped.
