  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

The List - Please maintain

Given that Brent couldn't guarantee an event attendee that his Canon Scarlet would ship for the holidays, I officially have no hope of getting mine this year. See ya in January, folks.

Those are almost undoubtedly Ti mounts since RED doesn't have a standalone Aluminum SKU. If they were aluminum they would be on scarlets not in boxes. ;)

My impression is that both the Al and Ti mounts are probably on the same machines. RED probably decided to catch up on their 5 month old back-orders for Ti mounts lest they have an uprising because of 2 month old customers like me getting Canon mounts ASAP. :D

exactly. that's why we're being patient :)
 
Yeah it would be weired if they did not take care of the ti backorder first.

I am perfectly willing to be patient, I would just like some honest communication from RED. Even if we can't get a rough estimate, just some explanation of what is happening and why would be great. I hope that this is forthcoming. It is a bit difficult for me to throw $14,000 into a bank account and just let it sit without knowing anything. I know there are some here who had to go through the process of getting their employers on-board with a purchase to be used in their businesses. How long are they going to put up with asking when the camera will arrive and hearing "I don't know when, and I can't tell you why" ?
 
Just did some bored rough calculations In 12 days they sold 2,600 - 3,000 cameras. I'd say this is figure is on the low end.
Day 1 about ~715 cameras...but I would venture it to be in the 900's. Day 2 ~382 Day 5 was ~343
 
Oh okay I see that the PL mounts and the Canon mounts have been segregated. But was wondering how the Order numbers would change. Anyway it seems easy to track now. Thanks for the change.

Took Last SO# of the day - First SO# of the day = # sold that day (assuming they were all scarlets which they all weren't but some did order more then 1 so I figured this would balance out and give an estimate)

This list has gone crazy. My order number was going to the UK a second ago, now California. Should be USA, NC. When I find my actual order, it has accessories listed that I didn't order.

Too many cooks, not enough moderators.

Ditto, I have seen many of the locations and types changed repeatedly. The list is completely borked.


In other news...

Ok the list seems to now reflect day when ordered, better than SO numbers.

However IF the list is correct there is now a very LUCKY Aussie who has taken delivery of Scarlet, this would be the 1st in OZ . So congrats to whoever it is ;) ! & I notice another one has its number assigned . So IF the list is correct things are happening people it mightn't be under the Xmas tree but Jan. Feb are looking very do able for Scarlet.
 
What happened to the list. It now goes from 11/3 through 12/ something and then back to 11/? Now my number has been removed. It's seems a bit wacky. It was a nice try.

Fixed. But I had to go back to about midnight to find a version that was all good. If you updated anything this afternoon. It's gone now.

/me would have created a more robust database system if I had known we would still be waiting on cameras. :P

Not true. I'm 0997 - I ordered a Scarlet PL Mount Nov 3rd and someone from Europe who has bought the camera the 4th with SO number 13XX already received his camera ...
Don't know what is happening at RED UK... maybe there is some people who have priviledge.
I'm definitely not one of those guys... hehe....

But anyway I'm really happy for them. Just hope that they will give us some nice footage :)
 
I figured it out... how I feel:

It's like I am taking a plane trip somewhere, and the plane has left the terminal, and is now waiting on the runway.
The Captain nor the flight attendants have come on the speaker to say anything. Silence.
I'm just sitting in my cramped seat for hours, just waiting. People around me are starting to talk.
Please captain please tell the passengers something!
 
@ Meddy

DOH! I thought that was our camera !!! What are you Brits doing with it ? That belongs down under. The sooner we become a republic the sooner we stop sending our Scarlets to UK /:

P.S. Des, your waiting for the Safety Demo & there's no running away. You cant even have a drink yet .....until you're in the air.
