Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

Ordered Only Orange Kit November 22 using PayPal Received Tracking number December 22 2016 . Shipping to Ohio, Will update how long it takes !

When Ordered My email said 4 weeks.. 4 weeks and 2 days is amazing (but I am still impatient) Cant wait to build it

Ordered mine on the 22nd aswell, what time of day did you order? Mine was fairly late in the day. So am hoping for a tracking number tomorrow 😀

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

Ordered a kit Nov 10. It shipped Dec 16th, spent the weekend in customs, then to Germany, then to Paris, then back to Germany for 2 days. Today it left Germany and ups says delivery to Wisconsin on the 28th. Originally they said the 22nd (today). Had ups not screwed up sending it back and forth between France and Germany, I'd be assembling is right now. Needless to say I'm less than pleased with ups right now. 👿

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

My experience of UPS n the UK is less than stellar...
they seem difficult to register an account with, and difficult to contact.

they expect you to be in, at short notice, and don't make changing delivery arrangements, easy.
their depot is miles away, and when you eventually contact them and arrange to collect from the depot... they send the parcel out to your unoccupied house...

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

I think it is time for Prusa to go to UPS office and start negotiating price and service. 3000 packages a month should have some effect on transport price. I am regular customer at tme. eu and they have flat fee 7.90€ + VAT for up to 30 kg UPS express saver.

Ordered my assembled printer 01.11 and it was shipped 21.12. But thanks to using UPS standard it will not arrive before 28.12. Now it seems that it is coming on a horse and the driver is stopping at every drinking house on its way. Not the UPS service i am used to.

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

My kit is finally “out for delivery”. Sure would be nice for Christmas Eve, but I’m not sure it’ll actually get here.
Summary of the UPS tracking log:
- Package ships on Friday the 16th (AM)
- Sits in Prague over the weekend plus Monday (clearing agency)
- Sits in Germany for 3 full days (my guess it’s the US pre-flight cargo scanning)
- “A late flight has caused a delay“ into Louisville, KY on the 23rd (AM)
- “A mechanical failure has delayed delivery” on the 23rd (PM)
- “A late flight has caused a delay” on the 24th (AM)
- “Out for delivery” on the 24th (AM)
This has reminded me what it was like as a youngster just waiting for Santa to arrive.

[edit:] 24th (PM) IT ARRIVES!!!! Too bad I have to do some yard work this afternoon while we have some 40 degree weather.

Re: Current lead time, still 4 weeks ?

Well, UPS has redeemed themselves. My printer arrived unscathed this morning. Started the build at 11:30 AM and started calibration around 3:30 PM. Had a few spots where the M3 nuts didn't want to fit in their respective holes without some trimming, but otherwise it was a smooth build. Its currently printing a set of vibration dampers, because the Y axis movement resonates through the Ikea Lack table it's on. Right now it's a bit louder on travel moves than my Monoprice Maker Select V2 that sits right under it, but the dampers should hopefully fix that.

My kit was ordered on November 25th, shipped on December 27th and is currently in the US having left Philadelphia for Baltimore. The expected delivery is tomorrow - so pretty close to 4 weeks given the holidays.

I ordered my kit on November 20, and hasn't shipped yet. Hopefully soon since others around that time (and after) appear to be shipping.
