    Definitely agree YeeeBuddy! Where oh where are all the user-uploaded Cera videos so i may selfishly quell my inordinate impatience? Buchee's been kind enough to put up 2 of em which is awesome, but i guess i just expected a few more to pop up by now...here's to hopin' it won't matter sooooon and i can upload some fat vapor cloud demonstrations myself like wut! :razz:

    So I successfully stopped smoking and dabbing starting this past Tuesday. This is after two recent unsuccessful attempts to take a break until the cera arrives. The insomnia has been pretty bad but I think having a lower tolerance when cera arrives will be worth it. Additionally I think I will be able to give the cera a much fairer review when it comes to how medicated it gets me.

    Has anyone else decided to "freshen up a bit" for the arrival of Cera?

    p.s. It looks like I should get a shipping notice this week. (dec.1) HOLLER!

    Yeah man, totally, been trying to cool it for a bit, I know if my tolerance is too high when I get it I'm going to be upset if I feel the Cera isn't getting me medicated, due to my tolerance being up. Nothing with the Cera.

    I haven't quit anything, just slowing down a bit.

    And I'm Dec 5th so hopefully I'll get my shipping notice soon too! I've been stoked for far too long, it'll be nice for this shipping stuff to finally come to an end, and the real Cera Chaos can begin with all these crazy modders getting their hands on it and TET coming out with new products for the Cera.

    The fun has just begun.

    I don't know about anyone else, but this adventure has kept me quite busy, and it's been fun collecting things like oils, leaf, cases, batteries that I'll use in/for the Cera.

    Been interesting going though this with everyone, wouldn't get this anywhere else. I'm glad I came to FC, this is a pretty fucking sweet place. When the threads aren't getting filled with junk. Shitty this thread had to be made, but it's been fun.

    Did you hear this from TET directly or are you inferring based on the info posted earlier in this or the main Cera thread? I only ask because I ordered Nov 24th and haven't heard anything (including a response to my last email) from them in about a month...

    I'm going off the belief that I am one of the estimated 60-75 ceras that will ship this week.(according to TET's latest Facebook post.) I asked a couple weeks ago how far down the list I was. They said my order had about 40 units in front of it.

    Last I heard of anyone getting a shipping notice was a guy with a nov 20 order date.

    I bet you get a shipping notice on Monday brotha

    Hmmmmmm....so....

    After being informed last week that they were waiting on a batch of ceramic bodies, and that they were pre-assembling other parts so that when the bodies arrived they could assemble and ship right away!--The latest news is that they also never had enough switches for this big new batch of shipments....switches which should be in today or tomorrow (though easily possible they don't show up for a week considering the bodies took about an extra week from the estimated arrival date to show up)---then they will have to assemble/test the switches as well as complete the final units and test those....then shipping can actually resume i'd hope? That is, assuming there's not any other missing parts that they're waiting to receive which we haven't been informed about...

    If you ask me, it would have been more proper and accurate when they informed us they were awaiting a shipment of bodies to let us know that they were also awaiting a shipment of switches, since without both things, shipping cannot occur.

    Surprised to discover new bumps in the road when i thought this puzzle was just about solved.

    Deja vu folks! :o

    They don't owe you any information at all. Every time TET opens up and shares something, people like you jump on them because whatever they say, it's never enough. I'm surprised that TET still participates here, and I'm not sure whining like this won't yet drive them away. Do you think this forum would be better off without them?

    First some of you pressure TET into saying something, then the complaints start about not getting more. When circumstances beyond their control force changes, many of the same people then blame them for breaking promises. Variations of this have happened over and over.

    Deja vu indeed.

    Whoa Paka dude i wasn't intending to start all this up again bro, not the least.

    I guess i should have put a disclaimer on my post. I'm very sorry if you feel i was being harsh, but I was stating the situation at hand for folks who might not be aware of the latest-- if that makes the company look bad then so be it, but i'm not trying to start anything, just trying to get an accurate estimate of when i might get the product i purchased based on present and past information.

    In the latter portion i was providing my input: "if you ask me it would have been more proper and accurate" is the way i framed it--i feel that's a pretty polite way of stating my opinion. i wouldn't be surprised if some folks agree that it's odd to give an update about some missing parts but not others if the goal is to give us customers an accurate update/estimate/news (and avoid more of our whining).

    Again, apologies for the misunderstanding, my intention is to relate the information i know about the situation from my point of view (trying to be conservative considering past delays, etc) and sure i'm a bit upset to hear it but i ain't trying to flame. this is simply the reality of when i'll get my device. thanks for understanding man.

    This is why I cancelled my pre-order a while back....to many pieces of the jigsaw either not fitting together or lost completely...I thought they would have learned by now how easy it is to piss people off with differing versions of what's actually happening.
    Sadly some people can't see anything wrong in contradiction or un-fulfilled promises...things that in every day life you may end up in court or with a bloody nose with, but in vapeland anything goes.

    If your going to release information to the general public you are definately going to double check and then double check again that the information you are releasing is true and correct otherwise you just look like a fool with egg on your face...there will always be someone out there that will notice every discrepency or mistake you make in any information you release so you need to have it spot on in the first place or you just keep quiet until you have all the facts.

    @ Tweek, great news...at least there is some progress.

    I have a little more confidence in TV getting orders out more quickly now that their suppliers are starting to increase production on the parts. That picture in the Cera thread showed ~336 cera bodies which looks like more than enough to complete preorders. Very exciting indeed. It seems there is a bottleneck effect going on when one part isn't supplied in the quantity that is needed. All of us who preordered should have the Cera in our hands before the end of this month.
