Anyone ask for a refund for their deposit for their pre-orders and got any response back yet?

[gofishus]

I pre-ordered the Pyra back in 2016 and have been waiting for over 4 years for it and finally decided to contact them this year to ask for a refund on my deposit and haven't received any responses back about it. So... I guess our money's gone then? Has anyone gotten a response back yet?

Are you really sure ? We never have been so near to mass production like now.

@EvilDragon anyway will reach you

I just have a huge backlog, as I don't even know where I should start with work as it's so much.
No worries, quite a few have received their refunds, but it takes some time as I'm way behind with mails.

I'm concentrating on the most important thing right now: Getting the Pyras finished ASAP

 

[comradekingu]

@EvilDragon I can help answer the easy ones.

I just hope you can sort of who actually still wants one before you build it. At least I guess they're unlikely to pay the remainder of the bill on the shop site, so you're unlikely to get a positive order with a delivery address I suppose, so as long as they're willing to sit tight it is less of a problem, especially if they're not in the first 200 pre-preorderers, since you can just give the Pyra to the next person who orders.

Acording to the Software this time thread, EvilDragon wants first to set up the Pree Order Page, so he should know befor the massproduktion how many units are needed, ..

 

[levi]

Not a pre-order page. He's already got that. It'll be an actual god damn order this thing as soon as humanly possible page next I think.

 

[EvilDragon]

Yep, page is setup - and davesha will be the first to receive the secret link

I liked that comment, but "secretly" I'm jealous.

I'll make sure I take plenty of photos

Also from the Final Order Side ??

I know that its not the Preeorder Side, but maybe i just picked up the false sentences..
The Side where you can put your Preeorder Code in and order the Final Pyra..

 

[levi]

The preorder code is just a voucher code as far as I can tell. You add it to your order as you checkout, same as you did if you paid the initial 200 smackers to get a pre-preorder when you upgraded that to a pre-order, if you remember doing that.

@EvilDragon is there anything the rest of the community can help you ( / eventually us) with?

 

[EvilDragon]

Unfortunately not, these are customer requests I have to handle myself.

 

[ClockworkCoder]

We can cheer you on at least. Just don't try to imagine any of us actually wearing a cheerleader costume.

But no other tasks besides those that can enable you to handle the customer requests and getting Pyra finished?

Maybe its best to dont ask EvilDragon something if its not neccessary, like
"Are whe there now", if you ask this the driver, he cant drive, so its takes longer the get there ^^

Uhh I’m not sure whether I did/didn’t phrase my question clearly enough but that’s definitely not what I was asking!

I’m trying to see if there are other ways for us to actively help things move along faster (reduce the driver’s task load in your analogy), rather than simply ask how long the driver thinks it’ll take for us to arrive when it’s just them (and maybe a second person) working on it - which I know is always “two months” anyway...

Me on phone to police: Hello officer I'd like to report the theft of my innocence please.

It is true that if I asked for a refund then I got my money back immediately.
