Thanks Jiffy - just done that and it says the order is unfulfilled. I thought you had lights to ship when I ordered, so I’m wondering why I paid the $10 expedited shipping now. Sigh. But hey, not a biggie. Still looking forward to the lights. Been a while so a little longer won’t mean a lot.
That’s pretty good time to the Local Yodel Depot. :+1:
To bad the guys at the Local Yodel Depot don’t seem to be in any big rush to get the package delivered to your door…. :person_facepalming:
Oh well, at least it’s close; which is of little consolation I imagine… 
LOL! Me!
Aye it was very quick there. Two days from Hong Kong to London. Three days from London to local depot. Yodel’s webchat guy said:
“According to the tracking your parcel has not been scanned for some time. As such I would need to request for a base search to be conducted in order to locate your parcel. To ensure a speedy process, kindly provide me with the contents of your parcel so that I may share this information with the depot.”
I’ve contacted NealsGadgets through Messenger so will see if they can follow it up.
You find that with Yodel though, the package always finds it’s way fine to the local depot then mysteriously disappears or it has been “delivery attempted” (not) then just evaporates. 
I have like an 80% success rate with them, not the best for a delivery company…
But I have faith in you this time Yodel 
Yep and different Local depots at opposite ends of the country, Jiffy’s is Scotland and mine is way down in Devon
Yep, me too……… I ordered one 3D on 4/28 and so far, nothing but a greyed out tracking #4230305942162730 that is not recognized and is a dead end on Flyt ….
Im being patient, just wanted yall to know you are not alone.
Yodel does not deserve your faith!
Apparently my parcel will be handled by Royal Mail. I sure hope this is the case.
Wow… that says a lot about the “Local Yodel Depots”…… :person_facepalming:
the shop said from the first moment that it's a pre-sale and shipping starts today
(and Neal will send hundreds of lights today as promised!)
he just had some 3A before that date and did many a favor by sending before the given date.
expedited shipping vs standard shipping has effect when the parcel left China - it is no cheat to cut the waiting list or get it sent from "hidden stock" ;)
hope that makes it clear that everything is going as planned and described...
/\ Perfectly clear (again … 
) M4D M4X… 
… 
So we have #1 choice as well as #9 and #10 on the list. 4000k 5D I thought would have made it in the mean time while waiting for the other possibilities in that range.
I got the notice mine has shipped. It’s a 7A.
I checked the China Post tracking number record, which shows an extended tour of many cities in the Russian Federation, and ends with:
Hang onto the flashight tight when you click it, if you want to be transported across time and space ….
Here are test results from maukka for SST-20 FA3 and FD2 tint bins. They both look pretty OK, with FA3 being slightly better, but harder to get. If Neal actually found FD2, that will be pretty satisfactory, I think.
Mine has been in LHR customs since 5am on Sunday… On its way to Devon. I was really hoping the tracking just stopped at LHR and it would magically arrive yesterday. Seems I was wrong on both counts.
I never assumed expedited shipping was a cheat to cut the waiting list. I just figure that had I ordered the 3A separately from the 7A, it would have already arrived with, and possibly without expedited shipping.
Now I suspect I may be waiting even longer since folks that presumably ordered only the 7A are receiving their shipping notices. It appears that, since all the 3As that were on hand are gone, I’ll be waiting until both units happen to be in stock at the same time before my order is put together and shipped. Hopefully I’m wrong about this.
I’m with you candor, ordered one 3D and one 7A and haven’t seen or heard anything. I did PM Neal with a request for an estimated shipping date based on my order number but no response. I’m sure he’s up to his eyeballs in FW3As, shipping supplies and customer requests.
It’ll get here at some point.
Anyone got a good source of 10507 optics in the US? Richard seems to be out of stock.
Arrow.com is a great source of Carclo optics in the USA.
Free shipping and low prices.
Buy a couple varieties and experiment! 
Sweet thanks. I love arrow; didn’t know they had optics.
