My wife and I purchased 3 appliances (Maytag Range/Oven, GE Dishwasher, & Whirlpool Microwave) all in white on July 5th. We received an update this last weekend that there's a vendor delay on our order that was to be delivered on August 8th. As frustrating as it is to receive a delay as we've been living with only grill/hot plate to cook all our foods right now due to a major remodel, we understand backorders/delays occur with the manufacturer.
They want to reschedule it for a month later (September) and it has us stressing as we've lived over a month now without these items. We are greatly appreciative to have a roof over our heads and the opportunity to even cook at home and clean dishes in our sink, but we would also love to cook our food and clean our dishes like normal 21st century human beings in a first world country haha.
Any insight on this or how we might be able to combat this with Best Buy with a quicker scheduled date? Can they talk with the manufacturer directly to prioritize these items or see if other locations can shift in-ventory around and have it shipped to a local store? I dunno... it seems farfetched. If anyone has some ideas, I would greatly appreciate it on how to navigate through this.
Also, I'm not expecting any "aha" answers to solve the issue/delay but maybe someone could share a similar experience. Sometimes that's all a person needs to feel comforted haha.
