Damn an insane amount of people signed up the first day.......Wow
There was a lot of demand for the product. The first several days are probably about the same as it took time for word to get out and people to react. @Admin M@ said the demand was "unprecedented".Damn an insane amount of people signed up the first day.......Wow
I can only say I think you're being a little foolish if you want the product. You're not hurting them by not buying it their products they're still going to sell a ton of stuff whether you buy it or not. I guess you're just venting a little bit but it doesn't mean a whole lot. I hope Boss hasn't done you wrong and you can buy something from themIt ends with losing me as a customer since 2008.
For reference sake, I have never purchased Exxon gasoline after the Valdez accident. When they merged with Mobil, I added them my list of businesses I will not support. A few others are BP and anything owned by the Koch brothers (I know the one died).
And I understand those companies supply others and I may inadvertently purchasing some of their products indirectly.
However, as customers the only way we can show our disapproval is to become past customers.
So they win this round, I’m denied purchase, but they lost the war of ever having me buy a new product from them again.
At this rate, I don't think they have to worry about supply outweighing demand so no they didn't lose any profit.They’d have made at least $500 each profit. They will clearly sell two less, that’s $1,000.
Curious:That’s not true.
They’d have made at least $500 each profit. They will clearly sell two less, that’s $1,000. And I am certainly done promoting the brand, so that may also have an effect. Anywho, I have my two IIIs, which have more power so I’m good.
When today?Purchase invite today.
Until a year goes by and everyone that paid a deposit feels like they have the right to start bashing the company. Wouldn’t be the first time.I don’t think anyones denied a purchase. They’d love to sell everyone 3 of them. There’s a pecking order due to limited supply. Hope they re examine the good for life waitlist place in line. How would you feel if you were on line for something for a year and a guy comes back in front of you 9 months later after taking a piss?
Still wish there was a sizable deposit required or even a prepay to get waitlisted. It would avoid much of these issues.
They are for sure doing a functional check and upgrade of firmwareI wonder if FAS is assembling each FM9 , loading firmware and testing per order received? Could be the reason for limited orders per day
They do final assembly, load firmware, burn-in, testing, packaging and shipping.I wonder if FAS is assembling each FM9 , loading firmware and testing per order received? Could be the reason for limited orders per day
How many employees do they have?They do final assembly, load firmware, burn-in, testing, packaging and shipping.
I suspect there are days it’s all hands on deck. They’re not a big company and I think that’s why I like them so. I love watching people work.
Considering they are just starting the 28th and it took them months to get through the 27th you might be waiting a while. Unless of course there was a drastic drop in waitlist requests on the second day. Cross your fingers.I am watching closely.

As SOON as I hear anything, I promise to update this thread!
Hundreds of thousands tied up in a house. I can go 500 bucks into fractal on a whenever to secure a spot. I trust them.Until a year goes by and everyone that paid a deposit feels like they have the right to start bashing the company. Wouldn’t be the first time.
You obviously haven’t seen some of the debacle’s with deposits and guitar gear over the years. It’s a real thing.If a company took a 500 dollar deposit from 2k people and put it in a CD for a year to get the 30k……is that even legal?
It sure as shit isn’t a bad idea!
One of my lead guitarists played the AX8 on Tuesday nights at a Recovery Service. He and his gear sounds great.Just got in from rehearsal and played my AX8 for 2 hours. It did NOT sound like shit
Actually it sounded pretty damn good.
