Full Metal Platinum....?
 
I was prepared to order a 4GB full metal platinum mp4 player from Uxcell when they suddenly just disappeared from the website. Like literally, they were the first that I looked at. Browsed through the other player listings, came back to the FMP to purchase and the listings were gone. Now they do not even show up on the website or say sold out like the Le Clip. Does anyone know if they are no longer available or temporarily sold out?

What the... i was on there just a while ago.. now they're gone .. damn.. i was going to order my 4GB FMP in a few days

Edit: Ok now if i recall correctly, i once saw the blackhawk vanish from the site for a week or two then it was back on the site. "Hopefully" the FMP range will be back too?

They are actually still available from http://www.sourcingmap.com. This site is somehow linked to Uxcell. A banner at the side of the page says "Purchase Sample" with 'UX' on it and takes you to Uxcell.com. It won't give me a stock quantity on the 4GB models though.

I guess I was lucky, I was able to order a Blue Le Clip and it was shipped yesterday.

It is strange that only the recent Apple clones are removed. It can have two reasons:

1) sold out

2) Uxcell had a visit from Apple lawyers

Sourcingmap.com is Uxcell. It was made for their wholesale customers to purchase theses players in quantity. Thats why you see a price difference when purchasing say +10=$40, +20=$38.50, +30=$37.00 so with the more you buy the cheaper they get. But I do see where it says 1-10 so even though it says to go to Uxcell to purchase sample/1 player try going threw the checkout with just the 1 and see if it lets you purchase it.

I am 99% shure that Uxcell has got a problem with Apple. ALL the Apple look and clones are removed from the website. That can not be by accident.

Yeah, it looks like it's my only option for now. I will shortly.

NOOBISH. Sourcingmap.com has 4 levels of shipping methods. Prices are in $US

Registered Air Transport $27.12
10 - 30 days (transportation time)

UPS Worldwide Express $28.81
2 - 5 days (transportation time)

EMS SpeedPost $20.44
3 - 5 days (transportation time)

Subsidized Air Transport $5.00
3-30 days (transportation time)

As you can see, the last is the same as Uxcells standard shipping.
When i purchase i'll just use standard and see how long it takes, i'm assuming it'll be the same as before with Uxcell. Hopefully this site will still be selling them in a few days. Since I bought my first FMP 1.5 from Uxcell i'm hooked on them. I think they're the coolest little gadgets around.
I'm also being tempted to try a 8GB model from Mp4nation.

Just a thought, could all the great discounts we get affect what they sell? Could they be trying to get a little more money by only offering them as bulk items? hmm
