So am I to assume that you didn't get any notice from FedEx? My concern with that scenario is that someone could walk up and take the stuff off your doorstep without the intended recepient even knowing the product had shipped yet. Weeks might go by before the red flags go up and alarms go off. I lost some (3) custom boost pedals made by Scott Appleton in a similar situation.

You did assume correct. I did not receive any notice from Fedex prior to delivery. In my line of work, I receive from UPS and Fedex often, and they have never contacted me beforehand about a delivery, so nothing out of the ordinary. If you do not want it left outside, leave a note where Fedex can see it and they can leave the info so you can pick it up in person at Fedex.

I take the responsibility of checking on status myself, at least that is the way I have always done it....but that requires the tracking numbers. I said "notice" in my original post, I should have said "tracking numbers" in hindsight. If the user console is not updated and you don't get any numbers, you don't know to leave a note for FedEx because you don't know if it has been shipped or not.....

Many have found their Fed ex E-mail treated as spam.

No dice there either, I have looked everyday. I am guessing the stuff shipped out on the 14th, so I can expect it tomorrow or Friday I am hoping. Heck it may be there today...that would be a rockin' surprise.
 
FWIW The E-mail the fed ex notifications are sent to the E-dress that you submitted when you first ordered.

Nothing has changed in my life since I ordered this stuff. That is the account I am looking at, plus all my other accounts come to the account in question too.
 
Thats interesting because I get a notification that the notification were sent to the recipient

I am hoping I am an odd anomoly in the system.... I got the vibe from some other posts that gear has showed up sans tracking numbers, for others. I hope that is the case here... I am jonesing.
 
I think I know whats happening. When I get the information from the packers, I schedual delivery and print the label for the following week to allow time for everyone to pay. If someone pays quickly, it will ship BEFORE the schedualed shipping date. When the package gets scanned at pick up, that over rides my scheduled ship date.

hmmmm, OK.... How do the tracking numbers play into that? Just trying to decipher it all.....
 
Quick initial reactions to the ACMP-73 and 84. They are big and heavy, as I believe drBill hinted at, and took up just a little more space in the rack that I was hoping for.

I did a short vocal take with no eq, and the pre's are very good by themselves. So with all the chatter about the 73, I ran it through the eq on the 73 and was very happy with the result. I am not blessed with a good voice, and without some serious eq, I just can't hardly take it, but sounded pretty good for me. (Do not ask for clips!!) Then I decided to run it through the 84. With my 10 thumbs and all those eq knobs I just knew I would come out sounding like the chipmunks, but what came out was way better than expected. I am very glad I got an 84 also!

Now to be totally honest, gonna have to work on the upgrades on the 1200, but I knew that going in. I burned it in overnight, sounded good on its own, but on my voice, which loves my modded SP T-3, it is not as full and clear with detail that the T-3 offers. I also have the 200, but not worked with it as of yet.

All in all, the group buy has been a lot of fun, got some great gear cheap, and I'm ready to do it all again.
 
OK cnix, rub it in... Just kiddin' ya's. Glad to hear another positive spin on these things. I saw no less than three FedEx trucks in my neighborhood and it took everything in my being not to chase down all three and ransacking their trucks for my seven 84's and one 1200.

bleh, I just checked the console again and now it says that shipping invoice was paid. I know this is a total pain for you but I'm curious if since I tried it at another location if it went through twice. Can you PM to discuss?

Focus on your attitude. Gear isn't everything. For you, that is. It is for me. Because I have green yes's.

Neener neener neener!

(That didn't help much, did it?)

Ooooh! Now I'm really pissed! Good thing the support group has a 37 step program. sigh....I'm only on step 2.

:D
 
Just on a whim, I decided to check the console again today. I was completely ready to be disappointed. Lo' and behold...I'm seeing YES:D I hope everything gets here by Tuesday. I'm only working Monday next week and need something to "pass" the time.
