Same
Mine is in the same situation.
Now “in transit” finally.
Best guess is a Monday delivery.
Depending where you are but Monday is a public holiday (MayDay) in a lot of countries…
Mine is currently in Memphis, TN - so it’s moving faster than I expected.
My ST is waiting for me to arrive. I am on a holiday and had it delivered at my parents house in the meanwhile
I’m not at all sure, but from a little research into FedEx’s flight schedule, here’s what I think is happening for the US-bound Syntakts at this point:
They missed the weekly flight from Cologne to Memphis, so they had to be re-routed. I don’t see any flights from FedEx out of Schiphol, so I think they are actually headed to Paris, just routing via Oude Meer, as there is a Paris-Memphis plane overnight tonight.
Wow I ordered the minute it went on sale and mine is still in Europe
Ordered mine! I’m looking forward to comparing the Syntakt with my Cycles. And having a box again since selling my DT. (which I regret)
I’ve read mixed thoughts on the machines, but they look 2x more flexible and shapeable than on the Cycles.
Just got an update, and estimated delivery is on Monday May 2nd!
I feel bad for everyone waiting and hope it clears up soon.
I wasn’t planning on getting an ST, but the more I listened the more I wanted one. I’ve been very impressed with OB lately, and want to see if i can integrate the digi-trinity in my setup.
Am I correct in assuming that because the “BUY” button is active again instead of saying “OUT OF STOCK”, that Elektron does indeed have them in stock again? I ordered one yesterday (status is PAID) but I just want to get a sense of when it might be shipped from those experienced with ordering direct from Elektron.
You’ll prob get yours before our first shipment
I ordered mine on Thursday, and it looks like it will arrive on Monday. So that’s 5 days total (which is impressive given the state of things - this is direct from Elektron to PA, USA)
If they charge your credit card that is a good sign, as I believe they only do that if they allocated a unit for you. You’ll see your serial number on the 1st email, which is the advanced shipping notice PDF.
good farewell
i hope i can leave this sinking ship here as of monday, haha
Ordered! I am now no longer just lurking here.
If you ordered before 12 pm CET, it should be shipped the same day, but if it was past that time, it will be shipped the next open day.
My sweetwater order arrived today, I would imagine most folks that ordered first day from sweetwater should have them by monday. It does look like they’re back ordered already though, so no clue how fast that first batch ran out!
My gear got to tour Europe before I did.
I ordered mine directly from Elektron this past Thursday night, by Friday morning I had a tracking number, and it arrived in Memphis this morning (Sat). No delivery date yet, but it’s coming to the west coast, so I’m guessing/hoping for a Monday delivery.
