I was browsing around, and I remembered the trouble some vendors had with PSPs. It turns out OddTech4Free, a CooBro site, is having trouble with their PSPs that were ordered from PCMall.com. I read elsewhere that preorders wouldn't be filled until early May. Could Gratis have the same vendor (through eFulfillment). eFulfillment could order through PCMall...

I believe that they do order through PCMall (same company as eCost I think)

if thats the case, they could tell us that?

They probably don't want to tell us because then people wouldn't do the sites because of the wait times.

so the 3-4 week wait could be another lie?

of course it could. as i've always said, with Gratis, there is no reason to go about quoting ship times and arrival times until you've received a tracking number for your item. As we've discovered with our xboxes, even being listed as STV, even being listed as Shipped, does not mean anything regarding arrival times. Any date, even supplied by Gratis CS, should just be regarded as a vauge suggestion.

and anything NOT stated directly by Gratis or someone like CG should be disregarded immediately.

If the PSPs are being ordered from PCMall.com, here's the story

I went to the website, did a search for PSP, and it came up. I clicked on the link and it says "Usually ships Call us." So, I called.

I spoke with one of their representatives (Eric), and he looked up the next shipment date (when they will receive them), and it is on April 20th.

For all those naysayers who don't believe me, and to give them a call, here's the direct link to the product page
