I've been wanting to get one of these for a while now.
It was originally $30 through verizon. Now it $20 through verizon.
But I found it on Amazon for $6.99. It's worth $6.99

I got mine in the mail today. Maybe I misunderstood, but shouldn't it come with a charger if its title is:

The Multi-Media Desktop Charger will charge your battery and conveniently display your phone.

Mine came with just the dock, in a ziplock bag. What did the rest of you receive?

I'm not saying it's a bad deal for $7 (or $5), but it's not what I expected.

It's intended to be used with the USB cable and either the AC adapter end or a PC. It's just a convenient way of popping your phone on the charger and using it as a clock or music device. I use mine with the app "Relax and Sleep" and it works great for that.

I agree that it's a good deal even without the charger. For some reason they have the item listed in their catalog twice: once with no description other than a repeat of the item title, and another time where the description clearly indicates that the charger is not included. The title of the second item is "OEM LG Ally VS740 Multi-media Docking Station", which is what the packing list indicates they shipped me.

Mine had an expected delivery date of March 25.

I got home today, and it was already waiting in my mailbox.

I almost bought one of these for full price when I got the phone, and I'm definitely glad I waited! Hahaha, great buy, even it it doesn't come with a USB cable. There's really no need for another though, just about everything I've bought recently uses Micro USB... Must be the new standard.
