Vizio’s Co-Star Streaming Box Will Be Back Up For Order Sept. 9th

If you were interested in buying Vizio’s new $99 Co-Star streaming media box and missed out on the pre-order, the good news is you don’t have to wait much longer for them to be back in stock. While the Vizio.com website currently says ‘Temporarily sold out”, Vizio let me know that they will open their website back up for orders on September 9th. And if that batch gets sold out, the company will have more in stock, available for ordering on September 18th. So check out my hands-on review of the device, put the date on your calendar and get ready to place your order for this nice little box. And if you want to try and win one for free, you can entering my drawing, where I am giving one away.

    The Co-Star was back in stock on the morning of the 8th of September but in the 2 minutes it took me to grab my credit card and place my order it was back OUT OF STOCK again. How odd the a new bunch just showed up on Ebay !! Right now I’ve totally had it with everything VIZIO !!!

    I’m so sick of Vizo. I ordered – not pre-ordered–it said they were in stock. 5 weeks later I get my co-star and it’s a piece of crap. It took me 2 hours to login and setup the dumb thing. I never could get my netflix account activated on it. You search for something and it can’t even respond to the typing. I type in my email, and it types a thousand g’s in a row, and you can’t stop it. Have to back out and try again.

    I emailed customer support. They say sorry, please call for customers support. Hassle!! So i call, and after waiting on hold to get their “proud to be in South Dakota Customer Service” i get nothing but attitude and ill-treatment from customer service.

    He said under no circumstances, even though it’s defective, will they return the product without charging me 10% restocking fee and return shipping. Such a pile of BS – they send me a product with broken firmware and then charge me to return it.

    My first experience with Vizio — and my last. Save yourself the trouble–go buy the Sony Google TV! Or get a Tivo. Or a Roku–do anything but waste your time and money on Vizion Co-Star.
