kristal= Posted September 22, 2014 Author Report Posted September 22, 2014 (edited) Contacted Heidenreich today, 4-5 weeks manufacturing time confirmed. Still waiting for 2 payments tho - they are on their way, PP troubles - so actual order will be sent tomorrow morning 9:00. done. Edited September 23, 2014 by kristal= Quote
kristal= Posted October 10, 2014 Author Report Posted October 10, 2014 I will receive the cases October 20. - 24. Quote
julianf Posted October 10, 2014 Report Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) I have just taken photographs of this panel. I feel fairly sure that it is the colour that i will be using for my own build. As a child of the 80s, i guess i like the red & black combination ; )note: the colour in the first photo is more accurate - in reality the red is not as pink as the second photo Edited October 10, 2014 by julianf 1 Quote
kristal= Posted October 10, 2014 Author Report Posted October 10, 2014 Nice coloring, this one needs white LCDs and a white data knob. Quote
julianf Posted October 10, 2014 Report Posted October 10, 2014 Nice coloring, this one needs white LCDs and a white data knob. Yep, white leds, black buttons, and a red / black pled screen. Not so sure about the white data wheel, but, hey! : ) I keep meaning to build one, but i never get around to it : ( Quote
coffee Posted October 11, 2014 Report Posted October 11, 2014 (edited) I still have some spare data wheels left, the part I used myself. They're the original Wilba recommended and Albs manufacture, details No complaints so far so I guess everyone's happy :smile: Edited October 11, 2014 by coffee Quote
kristal= Posted October 11, 2014 Author Report Posted October 11, 2014 @coffee: I'd post this in the Fleamarket section, I think it will stay rather unnoticed here. Quote
coffee Posted October 11, 2014 Report Posted October 11, 2014 @kristal=, ok thanks for the advice. I have only a few wheels left and I assumed the people ordering the case might be willing to get a compatible wheel as well so I didn't bother to post this to Fleamarket. I'm sorry if I seem to harass your bulk order ;) Anyway I have just a few wheels left and am happy to send them away so everybody please contact me now if you want one. Quote
kristal= Posted October 11, 2014 Author Report Posted October 11, 2014 I'm sorry if I seem to harass your bulk order No, you don't harass my bulk order, but not everybody who builds a SEQ4 buys a Heidenreich case. So if you want a broader attention, just post it in the fleamarket. Quote
julianf Posted October 13, 2014 Report Posted October 13, 2014 I have been thinking about offering a reduction to the current group buy (only). I think that, now people have confidence in Kristal's group buys, there would be no fear in ordering the panels at the same time (or there abouts) as the cases. So i am thinking something like this - Anyone who is ordering from the current group buy may order a panel set at a reduced rate of GBP 100 for the set (plus shipping / pp charges at cost) with payments taken up until the point where Kristal receives the cases from Heidenreich. Although it is no quicker in machine time to make multiple panels, it is easier for me, logistically, to make them in groups, rather than bit by bit, so, the reduction in cost is intended to encourage ordering in groups. Anyone outside of the current group buy (as listed on the wiki) would be excluded from the offer - again encouragement to order as a group (sorry!).Does that sound like a reasonable plan? Quote
sonicwarrior Posted October 13, 2014 Report Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) I ordered my Heidenreich in two groupbuys (the 'disaster one' and the one with which I finally got the case). Would be nice if at least the disaster victims would get a discount, too. Edited October 13, 2014 by sonicwarrior Quote
julianf Posted October 13, 2014 Report Posted October 13, 2014 That would be be nice. Im not 100% sure though.... I too was a disaster victim, and lost. Whilst it seems like a nice idea, i also feel that, if i were to do that, Marco would not have just 'cost' me once, but would carry on costing me? I dont know though - it would be nice to adjust slightly for Marco's dishonesty, but i dont want to feel bitter about Marco for ever. I try to undercut everyone else as it is, so there are limits... I will think about it. Quote

k-rAd MB6401 Posted October 17, 2014 Report Posted October 17, 2014 julianf - I would love to buy a front panel from you. That red one is a beauty! Any color will do though. Please let me know how i can order one. Nice work! Quote
kristal= Posted November 3, 2014 Author Report Posted November 3, 2014 Because it got lost in the server crash: Heidenreich announced the delivery this week (calendar week 45). It was originally announced for calendar week 43, but Heidenreich couldn't meet the delivery date. Will keep you guys updated. Quote
kristal= Posted November 10, 2014 Author Report Posted November 10, 2014 (edited) Okay, I called Heidenreich today, status is: A purchasing employee fell ill for 3 weeks and another was hospitalized, but the cases are finally manufactured and will be send out tomorrow. I'm sorry for the delay! edit 11-11: Received the trackingnumber, pics will follow when the parcel has arrived edit 11-12: Received the parcel. measurements checked, looking good - now the packing process begins Edited November 17, 2014 by kristal= Quote
