As usual i got a prompt, polite, and very detailed response from Caroline. Seems like they have chargers and are hoping to get out some units tomorrow. Surely won't see it for the holiday but fingers crossed anyway.

Edit. As expected she couldn't promise to get out my order tomorrow. But she mentioned how they were working on May orders or something so i did remind her i was April just in case and thanked her for her prompt and detailed response.

Well it took almost a year but I'm starting to wonder if I'd rather have my $250 back now than wait for my hopper. I'm not someone who gives up quickly especially in this "field," but with my FF2 purchase last month and impending Colorado vacation next month, money is on my mind. And being June 30 still with a June 2016 estimated delivery, I'm starting to get to the end of my rope.

Thoughts?
Any August 2015ers receive their hopper yet?

Don't despair!
Your estimated ship date will soon be adjusted to something more 'realistic' and all will be well, again.
But, seriously,
I'm with you, also an Aug '15 per-orderer, and I'm encouraged to see that they've been shipping up to mid-May '15 orders. So, it's closer than ever...

On the other hand, if the thrill of anticipation is gone and the money's looking good, you can cancel and always pick one up later.
Or sell your spot in line on ebay! lol

Yes, June 30 is pretty much the end of the, uh, current rope...

It's an obsession but it's pleasin'
This thread is a drag.

I'm reaching the point where I really hope that I get my hopper soon just so that I can stop obsessively reading about everyone's anger and frustration.

But I'm a January 2016 preorder, so it's gonna be a while before I can exclusively obsess over people's warranty issues in the main hopper thread.

Hahah haha just wait until you get close. Like in the month of your expected ship date. Checking this and reddit multiple times a day. Lol

Thank you. I got hopping last night and it was great! Didn't get too hot and worked really well...hopefully that is a good sign of things to come.

I really thought some more units would go out today...hopefully tomorrow.

Also, FYI, despite the address conf email saying that priority shipping in $10...they only charged me $3 extra since I had already paid $10, which made it more than worth it to me for piece of mind.

As it happens, the month of my expected ship date is June 2016.

It's not the waiting that's getting me down. It's the vitriol. But people will pass the time in whatever way is best for them, I guess. :shrug:

Yeah, I guess the old teacher in me wishes people would have learned by now.

Is there any "problem" that's more of a first world problem than worrying about how people are reacting to a first world problem? :rolleyes:;)

Me either, and I couldn't find the posting on Reddit.

But I'm still hoping for @IAmKrazy2 to get their hopper. Then I'll feel a little better about my/our (hopefully) imminent address confirmation email.

Oops. My apologies to the mods for back to back postings. Meant to edit.

I ordered may 2016. I'm still hoping for August 2016 delivery.

Also - their website still says ETA August 2016. How come they haven't adjusted that yet?

Let the flood gates open again!

I'm seeing enough progress that I ordered my @Ratchett Leather case. It really is a nice piece. I can't wait to show it off with a real live GH in it!

Early 12/15 preorder, and I am admittedly a little optimistic, but I think I could see mine before the end of August. I'm a believer in the inverse bell curve theory of orders, it makes sense and you can sort of see it in the numbers here. If that's so, then the June/July/Aug months could be slim pickins and be gone before we know it.

Then again I could be naive and just beginning down the rabbit hole everyone else has been down.

I think I'll take another hit and stay positive!
