When they catch up... prob late decemberish but realistically impossible to say, sometime in 2016

Is it just me, or have we not really had any new flurry of shipping confirmations in the past 7 days.... Doesn't seem like really anyone has gotten those confirmation emails in a while (sure we had a few international people finally getting their shipments, but nobody really "new").

I'm hoping we see some soon, normally we start to see them happen over the weekend

 

[Czechyourhead]

It is Labor day weekend, and we had a 3 day Phish show in Colorado.....

While I can't vouch for the GH folks, most people I know are still recovering.

I'm not even talking about this weekend, I mean last weekend. It's been over a week since we've really seen a whole bunch of shipping confirmation annoucements

Spent my labor day weekend in Colorado clocking over twenty hours of... labor.

sooo 8 days into September and still seems like no progress since the update. I've been bumped from July, to August, to September. From the sounds of it they haven't gotten past Nov 21st backers and i'm Dec 1st. Tired of being jerked around

They did say the second week of September as their estimate for when they get machines online.

lets do the math

back in july 2015 GH website claimed october
and now in september 2015 it claims december
I never checked in august did it say november?

I believe they skipped November for pre-order estimated delivery. See, that's a sign of them becoming more "realistic".

prob not

Just to add my data point.... I ordered in late July (this year), and at first was given a "September 2015" ship date.... It's been modified now to November. If that's accurate then it would appear they are getting their production mojo up.

I'll add my data to yours, I ordered mid march, my delivery estimate path is may>June>August>September>November.

Confidence that November is accurate = 15% since they seem to lump tons of orders from a wide span into one month before they re-adjust them later, they did that with the August, Sept and now November estimates, it's pretty consistent.

The further away your estimate is, the greater the chance it will be changed and delayed again.

JMO, it's the pattern that I observe, but YMMV.

I am thinking December 21st is my date.

backer - Nov. 21, 2013, just received shipping address confirmation email. state of disbelief

 

[Vapzilla]

It's been another long week and only a few reports of any new hoppers. Good for you and hope it ships out fast.
Hopefully they're shipping more than we hear of!

If your're feeling awesome post some pics. Haven't seen any good green ones yet.

 

[°k]

Has anyone in UK received theirs yet?

Mine has landed in Heathrow apparently but the tracking status hasn't changed for 4 days and royal mail doesn't even have it in their system... I'm thinking the customs are taking their time with it but the lack of status detail is worrying me...

Well...here is the first green Ti in the wild I've seen posted. All looks really nice. The threads on the front and rear piece are very fine. I have other instruments with the same and would suggest covering with a really light layer of vaseline. Makes cleaning much easier. Not gooped on, but just a layer and then wiped off with a cloth.

I'm still not able to see the images... maybe "it's not easy posting green?"
