Shipping Progress

[hatman28]

I was very excited when I first found the Pine on the Internet. I researched it out, and decided I would give it a try. I placed my order on the 17th of February, knowing full well it would be May before I received it; NOT after according the email. I was okay with that and have been patiently waiting for my order. I also read every post about slow shipping and promised myself I would not follow suit, that it would come in due time and that was okay.

About three weeks ago, I was telling my co-worker about the pine, extolling the virtue of this startup, exclaiming all the possibilities. So, he gets excited and orders one. I informed him that he would need to be patient that he probably wouldn't receiving it until the end of June at this point, he was okay with that.

Tonight, I get to work and what do I get? My co-worker showing me an email that his pine has shipped. When I see this, I am excited because I know that if his shipped, mine shipped as well (same identical order placed months before his), but when I log in, what do I see? PROCESSING. This is starting to borderline on the absurd. I get that takes time but this would indicate chaos and complete lack of organization.

Maybe I should order a new Pine to get it fast . (Backerkit status: Ready To Ship) What a shame the 2GB version is sold out. 

I posted this as a joke, but obviously should I have ordered a new Pine if I want to get one. If shop orders has been delivered and I as a backer still have not got ANYTHING even not a tracking number. What is going on???

I have just checked the online store. 1 and 2GB versions are on stock today. I ordered a 2GB Pine64. So lets see what will arrive first. I would not be surprised if it's my order placed in the pine64.com online store today!

Just FYI, since I first posted this message, I have received a "your order has shipped" message with a 2 day priority USPS tracking number. However, it's just not true. That was nearly two weeks ago and still no actual tracking information except the USPS has received pre-shipping information. My co-worker hasn't received his ether.
