I'm in no rush for my package, even though it will have new paints in it.  I can wait a bit, even past the May long weekend when I know the paint will pretty much make it without issue... 

At least up here in Canada we're at the point in the year where it's unlikely that our paint will freeze.

 

Can't wait to receive my Bones  Four Five package!

Yeah, we're now at the point where odds are in your favour, but it's still technically gambling because we all know third winter is lying in wait for us to lower our guard...

C'mon Bones 5... we've got to be close to packing and shipping...

 

They pretty much showed the stage it is in on Reaper Live. There were videos. Process is similar to last time.

I believe it looks like this:

  • Receive Container
  • Unload container and scan contents
  • Inventory items received
  • Stack in warehouse in a orderly organized way
  • Wait on additional containers (if any)
  • Prepare order pulling and packing area
  • After all containers have arrived pull, pack, and ship a small batch to test the process
  • Refine process
  • Begin pulling and shipping

The last ReaperLive Stream showed them as far as the first four bullet points, for ††5 out of ___ containers:

  • Receive Container
  • Unload container and scan contents
  • Inventory items received
  • Stack in warehouse in a orderly organized way
  • Wait on additional containers (if any)  <=== they were here

 

††Or, 3 out of 5 not counting UK. See next post.

UK was still awaiting their 1st container

Thanks for the info! As for the number of containers, last written update they said there were only five containers expected. (They had received 3 out of 5 at the time of the update.)

 

So any potential other containers would be containers they wouldn't be expecting, I guess ..? So if they realize they haven't received everything after doing inventory, there might be another container on the way they didn't know about.

there was going to be five that day but only 3 showed up. when asked about the number of containers someone said it was in the double digits. (don't remember who said it)

I seem to recall someone saying 12 containers total, but I could be totally wrong. 

I think you’re right. I think they said that some containers are still waiting to be unloaded in California before making their way to Texas.

I know from practical experience that Reaper paints will survive anything warmer than -17o C.

And I know from practical experience that they won't.  I have several dead Reaper paint pots (which were refunded, or resent by Reaper), as well as two dead CAV ones (from KS3).  Once temperatures go below freezing, it's a risk.
