I am in the same boat as you, just my story is that 5 months down the road, I am still waiting for half of my order to arrive. I have read your tread from start to finish and I have to agree with you. This "Project/Hooby" is being run by a bunch of 12 year olds.
They did the exact same thing to me... when you bring up the issue, they tell you 10 different stories as to why everything has happened, but no solutions. Each time they give a "Sincere apology" (Sarcastic) and tell you they are going to sort this out. To as per every other thread I have ready, nothing ever happens.
I really enjoy your sarcasm in your post. It at least makes me smile and gives me something interesting to read on these forums as nothing else raelly works here, and it seems neither do the developers at Pine64 work either as I have seen no development from them.
I guess The Hype Hit, Pine64 took everyone's Money and now they are just happily sending out random packages of surprises to everyone [emoji14]
I'm not sure what's happening with Pine64, right now. Tllim said that they had a solid support system setup, but when I read the other posts on shipping, there is more evidence of the opposite.
Same is true for development. It appears to be slowing down.
There may be a lot of truth in your guess that the hype is over and the bubble is deflating.
As for my sarcasm: I do wonder what goes on in the logistics department in China. Just have a neat Scotch and try to imagine how a treacherously simple order like a European zwave module gets lost in translation and ends up as a US power adapter on my doorstep.
There must be a story in there worth telling. Even food for a good stand up comedy?
Anyway, my sarcasm is targeting the system, not the people. I'm not sure it accomplished anything in the system, but at least I made a few people grin. That's already worth the effort.
Perhaps Santa [FATHER CHRISTMAS] has the rest of your stuff aboard. Let's hope the elfs that packed the sled got the order right. Not sure if there are any Chinese elfs.
Anyway : happy [emoji268] [emoji301] [emoji268] holidays!
