Got my tracking number today so fingers crossed usually a 14 day wait for standard post.
I had decided to sit this one out because I know how thin skinned some people on this site areā¦but WTF since you brought it upā¦āI told you soā
Take the popularity of HBBā¦add a small boutique shopā¦and you have a recipe for the trials and tribulations of all consumers involved
Fatfreq will be Fatfreq
Their culture will be their cultureā¦you get it when you get it
Iāve seen pictures of their manufacturing facilityā¦it looks relatively the same as beforeā¦which means they are limited in capacity and the ability to expand in order to meet rather large sudden orders such as the Deuce
A lot of companies monitor demand before they commit to buying material for a new product
Once the demand was establishedā¦logistics set inā¦
Now here lies the problemā¦it seems that no one at FF knows(or intentionally?) how to timeline the sales to manufacturing to handling chapters and erroneously proclaims a schedule they could not possibly meet
Then guys like us just put up with it
But I gotta tell yaā¦if I ran my business like that with the āI donāt give a shit, get my product or Iām taking my business elsewhereā type of clients that I deal withā¦that would not work out well for me
Iāve been through it twiceā¦not playing games with FF again
I didnāt bite on the preorder because of that but will order the Deuce soonā¦hope I donāt get it before the preorders but you never know with FatFreakā¦
To all of those who have ordered the Deuce, myself included
Iām a boardline basshead and listen to a lot of EDM, also play electric guitar and bass as a hobby. I looked to FF as a car guy looks to a Porsche, not anymore. I could eventually stretch myself to get s Scarlet Mini, but I just donāt want to deal with the company itself. Maybe used? Maybe.
Many people got their track number today, which is greatā¦ but FF failed all commitments they said themselves. Maybe just donāt make commitments?
I respect HBB for expressing his disatisfaction and not giving a pass just because is FF.
I see everyone else is dissatisfied with how FFās going with the shipment stuff, I honestly predicted it wouldnāt be smooth then they announced 6k preorders and I basically went, oh yeah itās gonna be all late lol
I guess Iām so used to disappointment I forgot thatās not how it should actually be. if I get it by Oct 30 then itāll be a nice birthday gift to myself then lol
yeah basically preorders from them are now marked on me as āeh, donātā I already knew that but I figured why not get it on the chaos for funsies lmao
With how Deuce and the shipping delays/feedback are going, Iām super curious how the next project is going to do.
delayed hopefully lol, I still remember not being able to buy Scarlet Mini since it was taking so long for everyone else
Yeah, hopefully itās less of an issue next time - maybe batch/1k sale segments would work better in the future. But, guess itās justā¦ Waiting patiently now.
not too bad, all Iāve been doing is patiently waiting so whatās another eternity lol
for now I might buy some fun sets or something
Wait a month for 11/11 sale
I think i paid $90, but i saw them on Prime day for $79.
for doscinco? you sure? thats low as hell. Also I just received estrella to demo and damn it sounds really nice. Perfect combination of bass and vocal i just wish they were both a bit toned down and its perfect for me. I guess it would be hard to find a set sub 150 that have similar graph
6 days and still tracking shows zip.
Did they dump a few thousand on singapore post all at once
yeah I might have to abort ship since I made that fuck up with buying a Vanilla Gift card so I cant use it on places outside of US lmao
so I guess I have 500 bucks to buy a new GPU
at least my 5700xt is getting a break
Just saw the Arcadia pricing, really interesting canāt wait for the reviews on that one once its out
no sorry that was S08
I did get Doscinco for $242 in Feb., which seemed pretty good for a fairly new set. I am expecting it to be around that on 11.11
Prime Day is $79 but also thereās a 20% coupon too so Iām showing $68 after taxes right now which Iām suuuuper tempted onā¦
dang amazon usa sure got some nice offers. s08 in amazon germany is somehow 109ā¬ because its not from linsoul.
