i’m pretty sure they mentioned that vendors were being prioritized at some point, so it doesn’t surprise me that a 16xxx shipped before a 15xxx. The probably just got the shit they needed to shove them out and now they’re figuring out how to serve the most people at once, which would logically result in getting them to the distributors first making it more likely that consumers begin receiving them at approximately the same time.
There seems to be some temporal distortion on their part. Perhaps living 17 hours in the future is causing some kind of issue in perception. I only got the shipment notification 8 hours ago. DHL is fast, but that’s Amazon fast. For example, I ordered a 16port unmanaged switch yesterday mornign and got it yesterday evening.
I can imagine this going down in the warehouse:
Peasant: Sir we have 500 orders ready to ship!
Boss: We just got a vendor order, ship them all to him.
Peasant: But sir, they have been waiting 3 months… and we still have another 500 orders still waiting.
Boss: Do as I say peasant or feel my wrath!
2 months later…
LHB gets all our focboxes
enertion is seriously just digging themselves into a really, really deep hole…
i don’t foresee a very long or fruitful future for them with these kind of blatant lies and delays. they’re just making it harder and harder for themselves to expand and grow. if they somehow end up expanding through some sort of miracle they will crash and burn if they ever try to pull this type of shit as a large, mainstream business
no. I’m not servicing cyber monday orders that were made directly from enertion.
That would be like if somebody stole money directly out of my wallet by making me pay a certain price for some gadget then selling them to my customers directly at a cut rate and then asking me to help fulfill all their orders.
well… i say it would be LIKE that… but it literally would be that, because that’s literally what happened.
undercutting us could also be part of the reason the certified resellers could be getting the parts earlier than the direct customers. Since… you know… they burned us at a really bad time to get burned.
Yes. My price was, and is, far higher then the fire sale price. Everyone’s is. Nobody is paying below $120 for these things, and a lot of us are having to value-add because people are still buying direct from Australia at a higher price which makes almost no sense at all.
i mean come on. $165 US plus shipping from australia and your stuck with anemic phase lead conectors after you wait two weeks for it to get to the US from Oz.
For $165 i’m giving you a 5.5mm bullet upgrade and it gets to you in three days ubn the US (if i have them in stock ffs) and $155 otherwise. I mean… why? lol
Ehy man, did you order before February? I can’t understand how they are organized since I thought the Chinese New year will delay everything, maybe is your batch coming directly from Enertion, Australia? Since I know they normally come from the chinese factory, and they are closed now…I’m pretty confused
