BTJ Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 If Canadian orders are going out today, does that leave hope for ROW stuff tomorrow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxden Racing Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 On the one hand (and by far the dominant one), very cool that they're getting a bunch of orders out. On the other hand I'd be lying if I didn't say I was a bit disappointed that they seem to have switched entirely away from doing US shipments while they were doing 5 item shipments. Mostly based on the fact that mine is a 6 item (vampire +5) shipment. C'est la vie... I get you. Would I like my order to go out? Of course. But if Reaper can get all the Canadian stuff on one truck, and only have to deal with those headaches once, more power to 'em. With some of the 'vampire + X' reports coming in, my gut instinct says they'll be back on non-Canadian stuff late today or early Monday.

KevinR Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 If Canadian orders are going out today, does that leave hope for ROW stuff tomorrow? I wouldn't be sure about tomorrow (did Bryan suggest 6-day shipping?), but Monday seems likely. Maybe finish out the batch of US labels today (1500 plus Canadians, so that should take them to about 800 orders shipped today), and then switch to a stack of 1500 international.

Dan Goodchild Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Now I have real dilemma. Do I continue to watch the counter obsessively or do I play with the brand new Ouya that just arrived? Both Same screen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finarfin Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Knowing how careful Reaperbryan usually is with his wording his post from a page or so back leads me to believe that the UPS rep(s) is there today. Now I have real dilemma. Do I continue to watch the counter obsessively or do I play with the brand new Ouya that just arrived? Yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just also a bit selfishly disappointed. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Same screen. I use my smartphone. And continue doing my work on my computer. I'm just being lazy. I'm lounging around my living room using the HTPC for internet browsing. I could pull out my laptop, tablet or phone to watch the counter but they're all upstairs. Being sick really sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CreganTur Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Didn't they say that they had a 2nd shift crew working as well? While I'm all for labor rights, I'm kind of hoping they work Saturday to keep the Bones flowing. The Bones must flow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm currently unemployed so I'd be home anyway. Being sick is what's making me not want to move. Honestly, if I were feeling well I'd be trying to finish my craft room before I'm buried in bonesium. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I'm all for labor rights, I'm kind of hoping they work Saturday to keep the Bones flowing. The Bones must flow! From the Kickstarter comments: We will work Canadian orders all day tody and Monday until finished while our Brokerage Rep is here to oversee and manage. We want no mistakes! So it looks like there is no work being done on the weekend. Frankly, I'm glad to hear that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earlier in this thread they said they considered it, but decided that it was better to have everyone in one shift covering as many lines at once as possible.

Kermit Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 1188 was the total for yesterday I think. So if they average 1000 orders per day, with just over 12,000 orders to go, it should take around 12 days to get everything shipped. Round up to two weeks for larger orders and unforseen delays. I think we're in the final stretch now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
