Waiting and waiting and......

2008-10-01 by Paul Schreiber

a) complaining to the MOTM list about your specific delivery issues with me 
is *NOT* helping you, or me, or my company.

b) This year alone, I have shipped 577 orders, which included 189 full 
kits/assembled modules. One can quickly figure out most of these were CEM 
ICs and/or 'MOTM 2.0' orders. But right now, these are the orders that are 
funding the company until I can start shipping the new stuff.

c) So, it's not like nothing is going on here. Did I mention I've also 
designed 2 more new modules and have 1 on a pc board prototype? I have got 
all of the MOTM-730 stuff ready to go (at a cost of over $4800 to me, with 1 
shipped and not even paid for yet).

d) In terms of kitting, I am kitting in *order* from most requested to least 
requested. Guess what the least requested kit is? MOTM-101.

e) Am I behind in kitting/shipping? Yes, as always. Is this *why* I am 
getting rid of the kits, and moving to all SMT production? Why, yes again. I 
am TIRED of kitting just as much as you are TIRED of waiting.

f) Please do no assume that paying me is some sort of acceleration to 
shipping. It is not. If you don't want to pay me, then don't order by 
PayPal. If you want a refund, *just ask for it*. If you want really fast 
shipping, call Shawn at AH and order MOTM Frac :)

Look, this isn't my first rodeo as we say in Texas. I know that after 
reading this, all that comes to mind is BIG DEAL WHERE IS ****MY**** 
ORDER??!? The answer is: it's right here in my filing cabinet, along with 
lots of OTHER PEOPLE that are also waiting, and that every day, SOMEONE 
(maybe not you, but SOMEONE) is getting an order shipped out. I am shipping 
6 orders out today and 7 tomorrow. After that, I will have 133 *left* to 
ship.
