UPDATE ......

Just as a reference for others, my Mini's build date was 17th Dec

It will be interesting to see if any of the issues others were having are also in mine (I read somewhere that a Mini with issues was built on the 4th Dec)

Congrats on getting your mini!

My mini Build date is Jan 17th 🙂

UPDATE 2 .................

OK, i built the Mini, took my time to make sure everything seemed ok

Checked the MINDA before start for the first time, was set ok

Inserted the USB provided and turned on ......................

First thing was to flash the firmware, which i did, surprisingly the firmware on my USB was 4.0.1, the latest updated one, so Prusa loaded the first updated firmware onto my USB before shipping on the 20th (well done Prusa).

I let it do the self tests, and all was good.

I havent done the calibration yet because i thought i would have to download and flash the latest firmware first.

Back to calibration now 👍 👍 👍

I was also surprised, because the firmware was officially released on the day the printer arrived at my door. I checked and it was the same file.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

I was really hoping to see some shipped out today.  Seems quite.

At least they answer to mails. I sent one yesterday and it got answered in 3 hours.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

@nicholas-m12

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Theres a shipped order from the 14th on the sheet!

I still dont hope for my mini this year.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

I placed my order on the 13th November.

I'm not expecting it to be at my door for another couple of months.

Despite this, I cant help but check my order on the site several times a day.
There's a spark of hope in the back of my mind that it will be shipped early.

I really do not understand their shipping order.  Multiple orders that were placed after mine have shipped and/or delivered.  

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

It could just as well be some joker that enjoys causing chaos. Any idiot can edit that spreadsheet, and any order within it, after all.

The last large batch of shipped orders were all in the 41000 block with just a handful more in the low 42000's. It's a pretty large gap to the 43700 one that someone marked shipped. I don't trust it. Yet.

@julianr

Somebody posted earlier that it's mostly their ERP which selects orders to ship, maybe those selected had something in common? Courier service, continent, some other order details?

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

@crawlerin

Could be.  I asked support and they confirmed (sort of) what was on the spreadsheet.  They did admit that my order was delayed and some had shipped before it.  I was surprised at the honesting but was not exactly happy with the comment that my order would arrive in the new year.  I was not sure how to interpret that.

@charles-h13

They delayed your order because they want to make sure your order will be flawless 😀 I feel it in my bones. 

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Prusa please delay mine too so it can it be perfect also 😜 

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

I ordered mine on 12/20/19.  Delivery is expected sometime in April.  This is my first 3D printer so I'm excited and nervous at the same time.  Hoping some of the kinks I've been reading about will be worked out by then.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Anybody got their unit shipped today?

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Seems quiet on the shipping front....
