I got a $50 gift card to Sears from the inlaws for Christmas. I used it to order a 52 piece 1/2" impact socket set. The set was $200 so I used the whole card and payed the rest with PayPal...I got an e-mail yesterday saying my order was cancelled due to an error. I threw the card away after I had placed the order. Now I get to dig through the trash to find the gift card. AWESOME!

Rant over.

At least they told you, your order got canceled. I placed an order for in store pick up, paid via paypal and after 3 days of not getting the pick confirmation email I call to find out my order had been canceled. They didn't bother letting me know or even refunding my money until I contacted them. Sears and paypal together ****.

Personally i've had enough of paypal and terminated my account with them.

Kinda similar thing happened to me, I place an order for pickup last night around 8:45. I never got a conf email. I got to store around 4pm today. After finding someone who was willing to get their lazy *** off the seat of the riding lawn mower on display to help me out, I am told to call up sears.com and cancel my order because they can't process orders placed online after the store closes. Awesome system you guys got.

I wonder if this has something to do with the gift card debacle a couple of days ago...

Knowing Sears and their website, that wouldn't surprise me at all. :headscrat

My honest opinion, they have full-on neanderthals working there, even in the web support group. I called up recently and they said "Our systems are down, we can't help with your order right now." So I ask what they can do and why they bother to answer the phone after 15 minutes on hold if they can't help people. The lady tells me they do web support to and they can still do that. So I tell her the website doesn't accept the email address that I used to place the order and to which they sent the confirmation, so I cannot check my order status. I ask her why that is. "Oh, I can't help you with that either, we support issues with the website but I don't know why it wouldn't be working." Jesus Christ. :wtf:

This is why I swore, God as my witness, to never ever ever ever ever place an order with them again, even if they paid me to take the tools from them. Blood pressure through the roof too many times, I'd rather live longer and buy somewhere else. Last few items I needed that were only available through Sears online, Snap On got my money instead. No complaints so far. :thumbup:
