It's getting to be that time of the year
NOW SERVING: Aug 28, 2021, 8:48 AM EST
I can only go by what’s stated on the FAS official website without further ACTUAL PROOF. I’m good either way.
And now we knowPreviously, we limited waitlists to one per customer and required confirmation from any pro/semi-pro player who needed a spare unit. If it seems like it's turning into a problem, we'll switch it back, but so far it has not been abused.
I think it's a fair assumption that it won't maintain such a dense invite list as the 27thFor the record:
In almost exactly 4 days forum time the Now Serving line moved 1hr 35min.
Slow goings (or maybe fast, who knows) but at this speed we would not complete August 28 2021 (meaning get to 12am 8/29/2021) until 9/6/22.
We hope. And if the spreadsheet is any indication of density the 28th is about 25% of what the 27th was, the 29th about 1/2 of the 28th , the 30th 1/2 of the 29th and so onI think it's a fair assumption that it won't maintain such a dense invite list as the 27th
I mean it's not going to stay constant so it will certainly start to decrease. Then bump at the turbo announcement. It'll speed up!We hope.

There is no turbo announcement point in relation to sales increases.. Everything is turbo. Turbo changed nothing as far as requests to buy.I mean it's not going to stay constant so it will certainly start to decrease. Then bump at the turbo announcement. It'll speed up!
I totally agree with you on the AXE III, but not quite there money wise yet. I would get the turbo and an FX 12 with it. Then I also need a laptop.Yeah I mean most of us are going on a year lol hopefully you don't have to wait as long as us. Could always snag a FM3 or III in the meantime! Resale value is always great
You know what most of us will say? Sell the Helix lolMan I'm not sure what to do when I get the email to buy, I just bought a Helix Floor a couple of months ago. I guess I still have a little bit of time, my waitlist email is from 8-28 at 11:09PM.

No, I'm saying that more people will be signed up for the waitlist on the day of the turbo announcement. So essentially there will be a waitlist request spike on that day.There is no turbo announcement point in relation to sales increases.. Everything is turbo. Turbo changed nothing as far as requests to buy.
This seems counterintuitive to say the least. If the previous policy was to not allow 2nd's while there was a waitlist, the implication here is that servicing the waitlist in a fair process is the end goal - I agree with this wholeheartedly.Admin M@ said:https://forum.fractalaudio.com/goto/post?id=2302083

I agree, it is disheartening to know that someone (pro semi pro ) can purchase 2 . Most of us have been waiting a year just to get one.This seems counterintuitive to say the least.

I don't understand the change in policy to now allow people who "needed a spare unit" to be prioritized over people who have waited a year and have no unit at all. In a world where there is no clear line of sight to a purchase invitation for people that got on the waitlist in mid Sept or later, it is quite hard to hear that FAS is providing optional spares prior to the next waitlist invite recipient.
I would respectively submit that FAS examine the possibility that "If it seems like it's turning into a problem, we'll switch it back," actually is the problem in and of itself. Please reconsider this in the spirit of fair distribution to those customers patiently waiting for their first unit.

Agreed. It is best to be invited, lest forgotten.I agree, it is disheartening to know that someone (pro semi pro ) can purchase 2 . Most of us have been waiting a year just to get one.
Still if I get a invite I will be happy and if I don’t get a invite I will still be happy I hope that everyone gets a FM9
