find out what your post office's policies are or they will return it to the sender w/in a few days. you may have to leave that slip signed with a request that they hold it.

hmmm, didn't think of that! Thanks kojdogg :o
 
didn't see you're in australia though-- perhaps the policies are different there?
 
Are some of you getting your Mics before receiving the EMail for Paypal S/H and fees?

Chance-- I pm'ed and emailed this message to you too, but I know you're most likely over run there so I ask this again. Sorry to fuss :o :
Chance,
I'm going to be away starting next Wednesday 11/7 until about Monday 11/19 getting married. Could I get these shipped to an alternate address, or would it be better to hold off on shipping? If the former, how should I go about letting you know the alternate address?
Thanks!
 
chance, in case you check this before you check your email, i got 3 ACS-60 and 1 ACS-50 Shockmounts, and it was supposed to be the other way around (1 ACS-60 and 3 ACS-50s).

what should i do?

Good question!

I haven't received any notifications or anything since the original payment confirmation emails months ago.

Of course, I only purchased one mic (I'm so lame) so I'm most likely at the bottom of the pecking order on this group buy.

^i'm in the same boat as you...i figure the single mic orders will probably be at the bottom of the barrel. i guess i should've ponied up the cash for a few more.
 
I should have probably made it clear that my mic is from a previous GB. I've had some serious pc AND paypal issues recently and was unable to sort out my shipping dollars. Chance was good enough NOT to on-sell my mic while I tried to clear it up and now my mic has finally arrived.

Apologies for any confusion to the guys who think they may be getting treated a bit second rate.

Once again - kudos to chance for his efforts. :p

I personally don't feel like I'm being treated as second rate or anything, it's just that I'm sure that he's going to be shipping out the larger orders first (which would be logical), which would put me pretty much dead last as I only ordered one item.

;)

Oh yeah, I'd also like to "ditto" your "kudos", and raise you by one "huzzah!"

:D

Stereo ribbons?

Hey Chance,

Since the stereo ribbon group buy fell through due to PayPal problems, any chance your manufacturing contact is interested in building some for us in the next buy? Maybe an adjustable X/Y ribbon... or better, a mid-side design with a cardioid ribbon and a non-offset figure-8?
 
Chance's copy from the other forum:

Pic 1: "It looks like your every day mic from China. but it's an XY config'd with (2) 22,5mm capsules.and 2 independent FET balanced output transformers."
(I inserted the extra "under the hood" view for ease of viewing...)

Pic 2: "This ribbon (resembles the 77 a tad) is variable polar pattern with a mechanical valve that slides over behind the ribbon. On the FET power amp, there is a pot to vari the voltage to the mic"

Pic 3: "I know, this looks crude like a WW2 German grenade it's a ribbon and uses a 12AX7 more details later"

Pic 4: "And this is a pregnant German grenade.Also a ribbon. A double ribbon, and phantom powered.the two ribbons are mounted in close proximity in vertical axis 90 degrees horizontally. It has two seperate FET"

Hope that does the trick...




PIC #4 is this what you mean ? (see post # 1510)
 
Hi,

didn't get any paypal request, I ordered 5 microphones, 3 ribbon 2 tube. Were all Paypal requests sent?

I don't remember what e-mail I used for paypal my ISP'S or my Hotmail, but I noticed hotmail sends some good e-mails directly to junk mail... hope that didn't happen

thanks
 
I have not gotten a PayPal request either. I just make sure to check my email as well as PayPal account frequently.

I really hope to get my mics soon because I have a band coming in on the 12th that I really want to try out the mics with.

I also want to trace the circuits in the tube mic and spec the ribbons thickness (if my caliper is accurate enough) and tension. But that isn't so time dependent.

Simply put, I can't wait. It's my waking thought, and I've lost sleep thinking of the mics too. haha :o I know it's pathetic but true.
 
Yesterday another big shippment went out and a few of the shippments to Canada went out USPS. Back to packing, weighing, measuring, requesting, and waiting/shipping

Man, I didn't even order any mics and I'm thinking about sending Chance some money - mainly because it's been thoroughly enjoyable reading this thread off and one for the past several months. :D

Hope everything works out for everyone.

Send some to Dragon, too, for hosting it.
 
I am missing my cordless phone. LOL The last time I remember using it was Friday morning while packing mics. I might very well have set it in a box I had just packed, then covered it with foam packing peanuts not realizing that the phone was there. I tried the pager from the base unit, but the batteries in the phone were probably dust. No biggie, if anyone finds it, just toss it. My bad.
