[laptop saga] my laptop has been in the shop for three weeks. I'm a day shy of two weeks since we ordered a replacement power cord for it. And ten days past the date to ship.
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
with no update from OriginPC as to there being any sort of delay or reasoning as to why
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
Just "processing" on the order for it
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
I am reallly getting fucking tired of them jerking me around
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
I would understand if they updated me with "hey, covid has slowed us down but don't worry, we'll get your cord out!"
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
but nothing
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
fucking nothing
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
they closed my support ticket about the laptop as a whole
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
which pisses me off to an entirely other level
kikibug13
yikes
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
there is NO FUCKING REASON
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
that a 1.5 year old laptop that cost nearly $3,000 should be comprised of parts that are end of life
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
I am at the point where I'm tempted to call the guy in EPhrata and tell him to yank out my hdd and mount it for external use so I can get my art and writing projects at least
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
AND THEN DRAG ORIGINPC THROUGH THE MUD ON EVERY FUCKING SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM I CAN
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐

wow what the fuck? damn I'd start dragging them now, blast this on Reddit
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
My FC is recommending unanimously, in chat tonight, that I respond to the support ticket they made for my order. THEN drag them and point out how unacceptable it is that a high-end pc company canโt build a laptop to last two full years
Ghoulfish
Yeah do it
Ghoulfish
Because fuck that
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
Should I grab screens from the old support tickets? Including my first maintenance a year in when my thermal had dried out?
Ghoulfish
yes
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
o7 first thing tomorrow I shall compile screenshots! And post them here and on Imgur so I canโt lose them
Ghoulfish

I think what pisses me off most is that Nerd BF built it on their site for me and bought it for me after he kept watching my old laptop crash so often
Ghoulfish
Yeah x.x
โ
๐๐ข๐๐๐
jeez that is a lot of bullshit I'm sorry
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
<3
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
I feel like my anger should have cooled a bit but nah lol
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
and I feel bad bitching when my bf bought me such an expensive laptop but at the same time... a year and a half
โ
๐๐ข๐๐๐
yo its expensive af you deserve to be angry esp when it has issues and no communication thats the worse
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
i just looked while taking the screenshots and it needed fresh thermal/repairs 5 months after I got it
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐
I should have taken that as a warning
Ghoulfish
yeah no you have every right to be pissed
Ghoulfish
my gaming laptop is 3 years old and was less than a thousand and still runs perfectly fine
