RE: The Core One Kit Waiting List
There is (AFAIK) no information available yet on shipping dates for kits. At least nothing more concrete than what they said in January, which is that kits "will start shipping in March". So it is also not clear what that means for later orders like yours. One could assume that preparing a kit is less work than actually assembling/testing a full printer, and hence that they can churn through the order-backlog quicker. But at this point we're all just reading tea-leaves :).

I had contact with support yesterday about a small problem. At the end I asked about the kit.Nothing definite is known yet. There may be a blog post later this month.

"A blog post later this month" sounds a little ominous ...

RE: The Core One Kit Waiting List
Well its mention that is all about the manual and documentation to build, I'm not sure thats what I understood. I guess if thats the truth many boxes may be assambled and then just send it away or its some chain issue, not sure its worst not to know than just having some date 🙁
RE: The Core One Kit Waiting List

Indeed -- that could either be a proud announcement that the kit is ready to ship, or an explanation why it will be late... Let's hope it's the former, similar to the "get ready" post Jo published mid-January for the assembled Core One.
RE: The Core One Kit Waiting List
Any updates any news about that documentation ? or something going on? I'm in a real doubt we will get anything this march tbh

The update which announced the imminent release of the fully assembled printer was published on January 22nd (and confirmed that "the first units will be sent to customers by the end of January"). So everything is still on schedule for the kit... 😉
RE: The Core One Kit Waiting List
I'm not a veteran Prusa buyer, but i was in line for the MK4 and then the MMU3.
We will get some info this month? I'm sure about that.
Does the Core One kit gets shipped this month? Now thats a 50-50.
RE: The Core One Kit Waiting List
What's weird is that for some reason March seems to be a much longer month than January 😀 . Anybody else noticed this? Very strange phenomenon.
RE: The Core One Kit Waiting List
It's not even halfway through the month yet...

Maybe for you good sir, but for us, every day is an extra month.
RE: The Core One Kit Waiting List
As far I understood here its only missing the documentation to build the machine, so all the rest its ready to be shipped I have a bit of doubts, but In a world full of wonders and magic (the one I love to be part of), its all the boxes ready to be shipped everywhere in the world by the great people of fedex that will deliver to every corner in the entire world.
And all the boxes are ready in prague just waiting for some one to end and finish how to assemble the machine.
I wish I could think that way but something inside me thinks its more about chain issues, hope I'm wrong and we are just missing the documentation.

Where is this coming from? I've seen a few people mention it on the forum, but no one from Prusa.

Again, it's not even the middle of the month yet. I get that people are wanting their kits, but this mentality helps no one. Especially when it starts rumors like it being "just missing documentation" or "supply issues". All that is going to do is create more of the above and more disappointment.

From @iftibashir, earlier in this thread. Not sure whether he has inside information, but he sure made it sound like he does:

The Core One Kits are ready to ship. The only holdup at the moment is with the actual build guide, which is being polished and finished off. They will not dispatch the kits until the build guide is completely finished.
RE: The Core One Kit Waiting List
You are absolutly right and I have no interest in geting rumors is just that lets be honest do you really think in 20 days everyone will get their orders?
We are not talking about a small company now a days, I agree with your statment but lets be real its suspicious.
RE: The Core One Kit Waiting List

Prusa never claimed that. They always stated that "shipping is planned to start in March". If things go to plan, they will ship some units in March -- hopefully more than a handful, but certainly less than "everyone's pending orders".
RE: The Core One Kit Waiting List
So it's from a single person making a single post that may or may not have "insider information" and keeps being repeated.
There is no reason to keep repeating rumors until they are verified (or denied) from someone at Prusa. Additionally it does no good as even if that is the case, they aren't going to ship them until they are ready to ship them. They'll have their reasons for not shipping them yet and really it doesn't matter what the reason is.
Unfortunately on this forum things tend to turn into rumors and tears very quickly, then devolve from there to personal attacks and threats of cancellations. None of these things change anything and just clutter up the forum and frustrate people even more.
Prusa said they would start shipping in March not early March not mid March but in March. So until they haven't shipped on April 1st, there is no reason to speculate and further push rumors that do nothing but feed the speculation and fear of missing out.

Yes, that's what most people have been writing here all along.
RE: The Core One Kit Waiting List
So with me it says probably. means that it can also be delayed
