Update - I've got a parcel waiting for me to collect from the post office (too big for letter box)

The only parcel I'm expecting is the gear I've ordered from Amikit

I got all the emails that alexh got. So I should be sorted

So fingers crossed

EMailed them yesterday. Nothing. Tried to phone. Ansafone.

Chiark,

Scrappysphinx has just reported in another thread http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=34527 that he ordered some crystals on Sunday and they've arrived today

Do you suffer from bad luck?

What with my dead 4000, I am starting to think that lady luck is not shining on me - she's doing something, but it's not shining

I raised a support ticket and got the terse response back "We despatch all orders within 7 working days."

And the order is still "pending".

Ho hum, at least they're still alive and responding!

It is possible they hand make several of their components and while they are "in stock" they are not assembled? Pure speculation.

My order had long delivery time too.After i paid, it took about 7 working days to shipping.Maybe because i used bank transfer it was so slow.But delivery was by road and not air mail, which i wonder because delivery costs were so high.

YEAH!

I ordered a brand new A1200 and an ATX PSU Converter for my Amiga 4000.

The stuff arrived today! Unbelievable fast service.
And the A1200 has a German keyboard. Awesome.

I ordered some days ago Amiga OS 3.1 original disks (new disks!) and the CF-ADAPTER+EasyADF (Great to see a software with 2008 date), very good price and fast fast fast shipment from UK to Spain.

I also agree that the service of amigakit.com is great!

Must add my voice to the chorus, I've always found Matthew to be most professional.
Quick replies, good (human) communication, and a font of knowledge on the Amiga hardware scene.
Deliveries have always been quick and well packaged, and always had the correct items.

I can strongly recommend using his service.

Regards



Rich

I've been to the shop a couple of times now and bought a few bits and bobs (basically he helped me tower my Amiga) and then when I messed something up he actually helped me to install it!

Can't praise him highly enough. He's just a nice guy to deal with. I'm looking at buying a couple of bits for my A2000 soon (roll on pay day) and it'll be ordered with amigakit.com it's almost automatic that I buy through them if I need anything.

Yes amigakit is great too, I have bought from amigakit in the past and found the service great. I always prefer to pay inflated prices for generic hardware from amigakit because I know amigakit has tested that it works on the amiga and refurbished it and put a sticker on it. Thank you amigakit for reminding us about your webstore in every thread you get an opportunity to. Just in case anybody missed it:
