Does anyone else feel that it is taking longer than the allotted 4-weeks to get their issues of parts?
My last two issues are took an averidge of 5-6 weeks from date of previous issue, i.e. from the date of notification (which is taking up to 5-weeks)and time of delivery. My last date of notification was 5/8, i have been checking since 1/09 for news of my next allottment (fifth week now, and no dispatch date?),+ time of delivery, up to 14-days takes it into the 7th week. is it just me, or does anyone else feel think this way?

TIS It is not just you. I agrea with what you say. But as I have said in the past until Deag sorts the contracted despach company out it will continue to spoil an otherwise excelent build experience.

Come on shipmates, where's all that patience we've been acquiring on this build. We know we'll get our parts
sooner or later.
Why add stress to a wonderfully satisfying and relaxing hobby by worrying about the next delivery
happy building
