EXT connectors

[MarkoeZ]

Hmmm, update is great, the timeline not so. I'm guessing, realistically, they won't arrive at my house before June 16th, right?


Not cancelling or anything, still want those little buggers. But then i can scratch the pandora mini vj software project for now and invest the time left before the show on making more movie clips and such.


Still looking forward to them!

It'd definitely be very tight to get them shipped out by the 16th. Lead time is just an estimate, I think, if I get them in 6 weeks instead, there should be no problem getting you what you need by the 16th.


I've now sent everyone who expressed interest in connectors a PM with the amount they pledge and the number of connectors that'll work out to. I'm personally buying 200 connectors which I'm keeping in reserve because I know that there will be more people over the next few weeks that want in.

I made You one for free, if You get me 2 EXT port connectors, pay postage I even buy, cat and solder an golden plated RCA/S-Video cable for You. B-)

*) After 8 weeks or so (2months) I will have many spare connectors ready.


*) Not "cat" but "cut". I'm master of misspelling.

 

[panik]

PM received, money sent. Now the waiting starts again.


Somehow, this 2 months thing feels very comfortable. I'm getting used to it, I guess


Thanks for giving us something to look forward to, again!

 

[Prometheus]

PM'ed you back, Stan. Will get payment sent as soon as I hear back.

 

[vadsamoht]

Payment sent.

 

[Prometheus]

Payment in.

 

[kwh2010]

[darfgarf]

+1 payment sent


now just to wait another 2 months


(once the connectors get here, and if anyone needs custom jobs done involving them, i'll have a few(about 40) spares)

Hmm, yeah i figured that much. Too bad, but i'm transfering money from bank to paypal as we speak (no creditcard), and it will be heading your way in 3/4 working days

 

[kerplunk]

Payment sent. Thanks for initiating this Wizardstan. Especially since we still have no time frame on the TV Out Cables.

Ok, WTF? They've charged my credit card, and now I'm getting an email saying "the cost is $1.35 a piece". That's more than double! And coming in after they've already charged me the initial amount. I'm currently yelling at them by email and will call them if I have to, because that kind of increase is entirely unacceptable, especially when I can get the complete 2200 box from other places for less than that price. Online Components didn't have the lowest price per piece, I was only pursuing them because they were willing to break the box, but if they're going to pull this kind of stunt I'm just going to cancel and buy a full 2200 from someone else. I'll find something to do with 1400 spare pieces somehow. At this point in time it's personal. GRAH!

 

[darfgarf]

yeah, last i checked they can't legally do that if you've got some form of contract that says otherwise (e-mails mentioning price count as evidence in court )


hopefully it's just some clerical mixup

 

[may88]

Poor old Stan. Tries to help the community and it's nothing but trouble.


How try to design a state of the art handheld computer.


Already PM'd. I'm willing to double my order. I was hoping for a few extra units though.


Let's see how this pans out. Good Luck!

 

[isc.grant]

I did double my order Payment sent. WizardStan I hope you don't get screwed by the supplier.

 

[zapman]

Hope they don't give you too much trouble... Good luck!

Damn, I don't understand why computers not works over weekends and holidays. I'll still waiting for money. I did electronic money transfer to my pay-pal enabled account, but money are still on the way. :-/


EDIT: This is a sarcasm, I know that it is not about computers but about bank asylums.

Anyway: I'm ready to increase payment if needed!

I'm not sure if that's intentional, but it's probably the best description of my bank that I've ever heard.
