If you haven't already sent $ you are not in on this order, but stay tuned I am sure there will be some of these for sale after they arrive

I can send money right now for the HRM-10. :D
 
As of now, they are all spoken and paid for. I would love to do another group buy, but it can't be on a public forum. The people who sell these under their brand name have complained to the manufacturer. When you stop to think about it, it is about 1/4 the price. I guess I would complain too with good reason. for the next group buy I would need some help. I would never again attempt to do this alone. If someone would want to undertake some of the work, PM or E-mail me
 
Hey Chance, you had mentioned earlier that you would be contacting some of us via email...I haven't recieved anything from you yet. Just wanting to be sure all is going as planned.

I got a few E-mails with "UPDATES AND YOUR FORUM NAME" in the subject bar. I can't remember seeing anyone using "AND YOUR FORUM NAME" as their forum name (or handle)

Drummers.

I sent my handle, but haven't gotten a reply, should I resend?

Thanks Chance for your quick reply.

Just keep me in mind whenever doing any future buyings. ;)

BTW: To people who bought and recived their hm 10 mic. Can you post some detail feedback on it. Like how does it compare to brand name mics you might have?

No one has gotten them yet - they're on a slow boat from China.

So why would the manufacturer care - it's not like it's going to cost him any business.

Actually, it could cost him quite a bit of business. As a group, we're buying just a handful of microphones - fewer than 100. The US companies that rebrand and resell these mics may buy thousands of them over time. Our purchase is a one time event (at least the manufacturer has no expectations of more business from this ad hoc group). So while they may be willing to do business with us (via Chance), they are NOT willing to piss off their bigger US dealers.

Where else is the US dealer going to get the mics, unless there are multiple ribbon mic manufacturers in China. (There may be - I don't know.) It would seem that it is the middleman who is po'd, not the manufacturer. But I'm a business ignoramus.

It may be wise to let this sleeping dog lie. Sorry I brought it up.
 
Sent my email Chance. I also included my paypal email since it is different from my normal email (paypal email is a forwarding address).
 
I only have a second, but I've got a lot of E-mails with just "UPDATE" in the subject header.
What I need is in the subject header (for me it would be) "UPDATE CHANCE". For Punkin it would be "UPDATE PUNKIN" It is the only quick way I can ID everyone. It would take a long time to open every E-mail, weed out the non orderers, and physically type out every E-mail.
In the message area your name address, and what forum.
Whoever is sending E-mail with just UPDATE with no forum name in the subject header, I don't know you, I won't open it, and it is deleted.
If you want an update, follow instructions. I will update on Saturday.
 
Something may be wrong here. I have done the UPDATE mail twice, both times w/ my handle (the first time UPDATE-ermghoti, the second time precisely as requested) and have no response. Does you filter not like Yahoo?

I'll try gmail.
 
Chance said he won't be sending updates until saturday, so I don't think you've missed anything. Don't think anyone's received an update yet. Then again, I've been wrong before.
 
Sounds great... Do you have an estimated date of arrival for the mics? No in a hurry, just curious...

Thanks!
 
Chance, did you send out an email to all of the mic buyers today? If so, I did not receive an email, yet I did send you an email with the right subject and info (and you took my money for my mics :D ). Please post here if you have sent out the email so we can all know.

Thanks!!
