Quote from dragon17 :
We need to think about the rationale. What's in it for Amazon to have thousands of angry customers without bikes? Not seeing the logic, nor hearing any good theories.
I'm not sure. But what I am sure of is HeyBike went out of their way on Reddit and Facebook to tell members to cancel those orders "as soon as possible."

I have found my new rabbit hole and I think I'm going to keep this order alive for as long as I can.

I'm riding this out until mid January, when they originally said they'd be delivered as I checked out. It's worth the $1 in interest I'd have earned on the $230.

Relax and enjoy the holidays. Amazon once has a price mistake on 10 boxes of disposable gloves that they priced as a single box. It took 4 months, but they still sent them. No reason not to wait til the initial delivery estimate and see what shakes out.

Generating the UPS labels has the Amazon system showing delivery dates that reflect a normal estimated transit time. I order a lot and I've seen this many times, it doesn't mean anything until UPS picks it up. Chat reps don't have any actual information, ever. I'm going to gamble $1 in interest that Dark Lord Bezos pays out.
Shipped and sold by Amazon is the clincher for me. I too will wait it out.... $250 back or a bike is the only difference. There is no scenario I lose money here - even waiting costs me nothing of my time other than what I do here and that's part of the savings hobby.

BUT for anyone that didn't know there are plenty of times Amazon honors insane price mistakes... such as the promos where folks got camera gear, TVs and soundbars for around 100 bucks.

Pretty sure this bike sale was a scam. A lot of Chinese ebike companies are going bankrupt because of the recession going on in China and I've seen a lot of these fake bike listings on Amazon. (tried 3 times before during the summer for similar price, none of them shipped).

Maybe some lucky people were able to get the stock that was held at Amazon warehouses as heybike used to be a real seller but I'm pretty sure most of us have been scammed and they're doing a hit and run type of thing. Good news is Amazon will always guarantee a refund.
The original sale was shipped and sold by Amazon, but nice try, trying to be a Debbie Downer.

I don't get it. Isn't that the exact same info we've had when tracking directly on ups.com since day 1 (Dec 10th)?

Probably. Didn't check until after it was late yesterday. I have another Mukkpet ebike and YYD Robo escooter that are the same situation with the same tracking info.

I feel like this was a ploy by Amazon to pad their Q4 numbers
Would a successful company really need to do that with some random $300 ebikes? Especially when they have some of the best customer service in the business. Their Q4 is terrific without this nonsense.

I ordered one at the $229 price and the bike has not arrived. After emailing Heybike Support, they said that none of their authorized sellers ever sell it for under $500 with shipping. I am having my doubts on whether this is legit or not. Am torn between waiting until 10Jan (original delivery date before it was changed to 19DEC) or requesting a refund before the 30 days hit. Has anyone else experienced something similar?
