i really thought this all closed in april, when i had no money.

i see payments due today. is there any recourse for jumping in late, now that i have [some] money?

(how much were the preamps?)

LMAO.................I was PM'd by someone here a while back and essentially chastised for mentioning the pricing, something I found to be perversely humourous considering the GB pricing was being freely passed around the w w w through PM's and emails, etc.

Yeh, I thinks it's all fairly well known.

I Know......... Kind of futile isn't it.

I wonder what else is futile in this debate.

;-)

by **mfdu** » Fri May 16, 2008 11:41 am

futile is me being behind the 8 ball.

so i missed out. chance got back to me, and yeah - the console is locked out for new registrations.

missed by a day, damn it!!!!

well, maybe someone will have a spare pre or two to offload once the ship comes in . . .

please let me know if that's the case, yo!

chris.

by **tunetown** » Fri May 16, 2008 11:48 am

I'll let you know once I hear them.........

;-)

It's a shame you missed this one. There will be a big announcment from Chance in a few months once this has all settled down. I suspect these will become a regular event.

Cheers

[quote="tonymite"]Has anyone worked out what's what - in particular EQ points?

As far as I know:

ACMP-73 = 1073 (1290) type mic-pre and 1073 EQ points (3 band ) - Yes VU, WITH DI

ACMP-81 = 1073 (1290) type mic-pre and 1081 EQ points (4 band ) - No VU, NO DI

ACMP-84 = 1073 (1290) type mic-pre and 1073 EQ points (3 band extended) - Yes VU, NO DI

Anyone care to confirm / correct ?[/quote]

anyone ?? before I make payment?

Tony,
That is correct on what you posted above..

i was not only out of cash, but feeling very burnt by the Fabio DOA group buy. took 2 years from payment to reciept of the DOA's, and they have been mangled in the post.

but i wish i had'a caught this one.

le sigh.

by **tunetown** » Fri May 16, 2008 12:04 pm

This is my first GB. With some large reputations being placed on the line I find it hard to imagine DOA. Having said that, with all these things, you should only gamble what you are prepared to lose.

Cheers

Peter

by **mfdu** » Fri May 16, 2008 12:29 pm

Chance's comment was this - maybe someone else who is in on the group buy would like to amend their order to include 2 of the ACMP-73 pre's for me?

anyone not actually paid yet, who might be prepared to do so? if so, let me know the total amount (in AUD) and i can do an immediate electronic funds transfer to an account of your specification.

please let me know - i'll be lurking in hope.

(respect to all those who made in on time)

Damn, TimS just paid for his this morning.

Come on guys, help a fellow TR out.......

Good luck

by **no-fi** » Fri May 16, 2008 12:34 pm

damn... wish I'd known about this thing before now, too.

the preamps look like they could be damn good!
:-)

I'll be waiting for the next group buy, for sure.

by **Ausrock** » Fri May 16, 2008 12:46 pm

mfdu/Chris,

Check your PMs mate.

ChrisO

by **TimS** » Fri May 16, 2008 12:57 pm

Had I known, I could have helped out, but I got your PM's after I had paid Chris - sorry bro..
There might be some Aussie guys on Gearslutz or HomeRec that might not yet have paid..
Just a suggestion
Tim..

by **Ausrock** » Fri May 16, 2008 1:26 pm

All has been taken care of :-))

ChrisO

Actually, mfdu was that grateful that he told me to order a couple of pres for myself and he would pay for them :-))).

by **TimS** » Fri May 16, 2008 4:05 pm

Great to hear that you wont miss out now Chris.
Thanks Ausrock - damn, I just re-read what you typed!!!
Bugger!!!

;-)

by **Ausrock** » Fri May 16, 2008 4:09 pm

He he...............I'm just waiting for Chris's reaction to my assumptions regarding his generosity :-))

by **mfdu** » Fri May 16, 2008 4:21 pm

oh yeah, 'cause i'm such a big-hearted gent. i take pity on ChrisO because he got flooded. and he's in NSW.

Just resurrecting this thread and wondering if any members here who ordered any of the pres or mics in the group buy have received a shipping invoice yet? The mics and pre's (2 container loads) have now all been delivered in California, the invoicing has been a bit buggy it sounds like. Folks in the USA are now getting deliveries...... we shouldn't be too far behind. The mics and pres are apparently solidly built, heavy and delivered well-packed, so wondering what this will mean to eventual shipping costs from LA to Australia given the dive in the dollar. First one who gets a shipping invoice, let me know. I ordered an ACMP-73 pre and an ACM-1200 tube mic.

I'm still to hear anything, I ordered pretty much a pair of most things.

by **TimS** » Tue Oct 21, 2008 2:59 pm

No news here either - I ordered 2 mics (ACM 1200 and the ACM-6802T)

by **Chris H** » Wed Oct 22, 2008 4:09 pm

They put my shipping invoice up and its now paid, so just waiting for it to be shipped. The user console indicates when the items are shipped. Chance has told me its all packed and ready to go.
I'm just getting mics so maybe its 1st cab off the rank.

Anyone here got a shipping invoice yet?
