I thought we'd get a 48 hour warning per lockdown, as we did with feb/early bird, did I miss the warning for march?
March shipment already locked down?

There wasn't one, I was hoping as well, I had thought to add a couple things, no biggie though I'll get them from adafruit or sparkfun

Same here, wasn't expecting lockdown yet (BackerKit website says currently scheduled for 04/15/16) and went there last night to adjust my add-ons. As I'd included cases for my Pines and so shipping would be delayed to April I had assumed I had plenty of time...
Wonder if anyone in control will be able to provide any additional info for us? A

The 15th April lockdown date was explained in one of the updates, and in a thread or two on here. That date represents the latest possible time by which a person could complete the survey. So say you were a March backer and were unable to get to your computer for whatever reason in February/March, and thus you couldn't fill out the Backerkit survey, you would still have until April the 15th to get it done. It's a final deadline day for attempting the survey, rather than a delayed delivery date due to add-ons and accessories.

I hadn't actually been working to the 15th April date (it felt like a placeholder to me) but had been expecting an email warning that lockdown was on the way. Oh well, more tech to play with ![]()

Now I know the Pine64 will ship via them I genuinely worry that it will not turn up at my work (the address I've entered) because it's not a simple street address. I also wonder how they'll handle the customs side of things given they'll probably hold the package, send me a letter asking for money and then release the package which means there's two opportunities for items to vanish in the post...

I have just got an e-mail from Pine64 Inc.:
We successfully charged xx$ to the credit card provided for ..... This means my March Pledge / Backer kit is soon ready to be shipped to me! I can't be more excited! ![]() ![]()
