Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?  

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

It seems to keep going up rather than down. No surprise with all the excellent reviews it is getting. If you want a snowballs chance for a MK2 before Christmas, i'd order a kit now and it's still rather doubtful.

PS: on the shop page, lower right corner is a chat link, you might want to ask your question there. There ain't many cs reps on the forum.

Its 3 weeks accordind to support. Order has been placed

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

Congrats. It's well worth the wait. 🙂

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

I ordered mine last week and was wondering if there were some slim chance I was gonna get it before the announced lead time, apparently that's not gonna happen ! Oh well , only two more weeks I guess? 😀

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

as long as I have mine in 4 weeks when my 3 weeks off work start

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

Fingers crossed for you...
best wishes, Joan.

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

I ordered 10/28 and its still on backorder, so it's at least 3 weeks, was hoping to get it for the thanksgiving long weekend, but unless they ship today, it wont make it, but next week 😀

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

FYI I ordered mine oct 25 and it still has not shipped. I expect and hope any day.

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

Ordered the kit November 2nd. Had some contact because of an errror in my address an was told i can expect delivery 20 to 25th this month. Did not belive it but hope dies last.

Your numbers tell a different story also 😥

PS. Kit or Assembler for you?

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

Lead did go up a week now. 5-6 for assembled and 4-5 for kit.

C!

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

I ordered mine on October 30th. I also ordered the quad-material upgrade. I apparently didn't read something right as I swear it said the quad material upgrade was shipping in November. Turns out that was just the beta and the actual product isn't coming out until January. That meant my printer was held up until at least January. I'm not even hopeful that it will show up in January. At best, the end of January I would think.

Anyway, talked to support and they split my order for me. It cost me an extra $40 for shipping the two things separately. It sounded a little steep, but I was told my printer will ship out within a week. I'm hoping next weekend, I'll have a project to do. I broke my Micro, so I'm currently without a printer. Plus I have Christmas ideas to print out. If $40 gets me a printer soon enough to print what I have in mind, it will be well worth it. Worst case scenario is I should have it for my 11 day stretch of days off.

I'm incredibly anxious!

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

To give people an idea of current lead time; I ordered on the 11th of November and support has just given me an estimate of mid-December for shipping. (The person I spoke too was told me second week of December was a possibility but he couldn't make any promises).
So if you ordered around the same time as me, it should give you a better idea of when you might expect your printer 🙂

This would also point to the fact that you really have no chance of getting it shipped before Christmas if you order now.

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

I ordered my KIT 2nd November. Support told me to expect it this week. But guess... 😡 🙄

If you comment please always write wether you ordered a KIT or PRINTER

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

I suggest, patience is a virtue, that may lead to mods/improvements to the printer you finally get.

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

Totally agree. My order went through on 3 Oct.

It's paired with the quad material option, and support says they'll ship together in Jan sometime.

I'm in no rush. Been watching thingiverse for all the upgrades people have been putting together, and it sounds like cable chains and sound dampeners are a definate bonus.

Not being in a rush lets me figure out what could be changed/improved, if anything.

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

※ordered the kit btw.

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

patience. Well. They took my money so I did my part. Now they should do theirs. At least be VERY transparent, It would be nice to debit my CC when they ship and not x-weeks before. Maybe it is different with Paypal (where they seem to have "some" trouble with now https://twitter.com/josefprusa/status/801823883057893381 ). I can be patience 24 days to x-mas, I know then santa will be there. And if not he dam has to call me! 🙂

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

Lead time up again. 5-6 weeks for kit and 6-8 weeks for assembled printer. Wooop.

I really apreaciate the success for prusa research but they should keep us, as we are some kind of supporters for that open source, informed better.

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

Got a sign of light, my kit seems ready for shipping. As it seems you get an extra penalty if you order with black parts, they only produce once a week black parts. Hmmm. Also included PLA was not more avaible in black, they now ship with silver for me (on my request). So keep fingers crossed.

Any others also don't like the "iconic" orange color? I mean I don't care about color as long it is black 🙂 Also a guitar has to be black. So a printer...
