Still waiting for delivery date?

e14 Contributor
e14 Contributor over 14 years ago

Hi,

 

I have ordered in early april and the only thing I got so far is an ORP number (ORP019443). So I am still waiting for an expected delivery date? Can anybody provide a contact (email etc.) where I can get more information about the delivery state?

 

Thanks,

Franz

    I am honestly amazed at some of the reactions on here to delays/lack of information about shipping. We have all ordered a completely new device that was only released to manufacture a few months ago and which has received orders probably well in excess of 100,000 units. How surprising would it be to find that the supply chain struggles to keep pace with demand and also has problems keeping people informed. We all surely know that the PI is a low-profit article for two major component suppliers to be selling, and that they each have a massive commercial operation to run selling their main lines of product.

     

    Let's face it, what you have ordered is a toy, no more, no less; not having it for a few weeks won't damage your health or wealth, so would it not be advisable to stop behaving like children who have been denied an ice-cream and just demonstrate a little patience?

     

    To react like one poster who says he is going to tell his boss to boycott Farnell and that he will throw his PI into a corner and not use it when it eventually arrives is surely a massive over-reaction and just typical of our culture that demands everything NOW!

     

    Not my intention to upset anyone, just trying to be a grown-up! image
