Remember that too-good-to-be-true $150 laptop from Medison? Well, they promised that once the first orders were placed, they would be shipping out units in 4-6 weeks. It’s been 6 weeks, and as far as we know, no one has gotten their laptop.
Matthew over at Crave put in his order as soon as he could, and it’s been exactly 6 weeks since his order was placed. He’s put in a call to 2Checkout.com which is handling the orders for Medison Europe Limited, and while they assured him that his card has not been charged, they still cannot confirm when his laptop will be sent out.
The good thing here is that 2Checkout.com is handling your money, not Medison. 2Checkout.com actually has a reputation, so you know that even if you don’t end up getting a cheap laptop, you’re likely not going to get screwed if they never ship it. He hasn’t canceled his order yet, so we’ll let you know if it ever actually comes.
Six weeks later, still no $150 laptop [via crave]

as you might remember, they pushed the official start ship date to the middle of august (14th, 15th, 16th) so its really only like 3 weeks from what they promised

You can contact 2CheckOut.com for refund. Chargeback should never be necessary.

This is nothing but a scam!

That would be a REALLY nice deal if it was true but as the old saying goes…
“If it is too good to be true, then more than likely it is…”

If the spelling in your post is in any way representative of how your spelling was in your e-mail to them, it is no wonder why they haven’t replied. They probably couldn’t understand you, or were wondering why a five year old was e-mailing them.
