I hear they just received another 1900 of the units shortly ago -- this from a phone call I made today to talk with them about my order. I just had two units shipped with _overnight_with_morning_delivery FedEx shipping to my home and received them this morning. (I had received, mid-March, two prior ones from a different order made in late Feb.) I had ordered eight more though and they screwed up the order so I was on the phone with them yesterday (and today) about it. Looks like I'll get the next six in a week or so after they get you folks your pieces and figure out how they messed up my order. The two they did ship me shows a shipping form with "ordered 2, shipped 2" which is wrong and a nice refund of money at the bottom of it -- which is also wrong, assuming they figure things out. The order billed me for two units then credited me a discount for eight units and the discount, of course, more than made up for the two units charged. Funny, in a way. Except I'd like the other six to arrive. Jon |
