  • 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

Got my allocation email on the 10th Jan. Yesterday my rep emailed to confirm payment and shipping address and she said my AL mount package would ship in 7-10 days. Oh yeah SO# 0051183 Nov 3rd 8:44pm :hurray::emote_happyhappy:
 
My deposit wasn't charged to my amex for a few days, but that seems like a long time to wait for a deposit to be charged.... are you in Europe? I believe if you are in Europe a deposit is not required...

No I'm not in Europe ... but somewhere in South-east Asia :)

But yeah it is weird... because it's been more than 2 weeks and there is still no charge, oh well :(

Is it just me, or does it seem like production is slowing?

Its been almost two months and looks like we'll be lucky if they ship all the AL orders from the first 2hrs on Nov3rd... And it does seem that things have slowed down lately if forum activity is any indication.

Maybe shipping Epics has become a higher priority?

Nice! I'm SO 51188 - same way like U for allocation time, payment confirment etc but no email about shipment!! - I hope I'll get it in a few days!!!!!!!! (And I'm waiting too for the sidehandle allocation!!!)
 
if i recall zacdixon I didn't see any new allocations for this week. seems like they're trying to process all the Scarlets that got allocated on the 10th (25-35 Bodies?).

Really hoping my camera goes out Mon. Just sucks when they tell you 5-7 days in the allocation email and it's more like 2 weeks at least for this most recent batch (Been waiting 11 days so far since allocation still no shipment email). Don't be an idiot like me in trusting what they tell you and planning out your shoots with those dates in mind. Wait until your shipment notification then start planning accordingly. Until then all my projects are on idle...

soon!

I was also allocated on the 10th, contacted by RED on the 11th to let me know the order is being processed. I am still awaiting tracking email from fedex. #1072. Everything is shipping but the LCD and side handle. I can't wait to get that email!!!
 
Looking at the list... it would seem they allocate around 100 Scarlets in every batch, correct? (that's about the amount of SO #'s we are out...)

Edit: true true... not every batch. Just the last one. Here's hoping that becomes the norm.

Hoping this monday will be The day!!!!!!!
 
Will this be the week that the fabled Scarlet Canon TI is seen in the wild? It has been stated that the only ones known to exist are held in captivity... If the backorder report holds true I should be spending a lot of money this week.

My potential jobs are getting VERY exciting! The order of Scarlet put a fire under my butt to get out and drum up leads. The first ( well, the first POSSIBLE one that the datye hasn't passed on ) Is March 9th. I have backup options now, but it will be VERY exciting if Scarlet really ramps up in the next weeks.

Just curious what tea leaves people are reading to lead them to believe there's any "ramping-up" of production. If the list is correct there was not a single unit allocated last week - 5 days, not one Scarlet. I'm not sure what Red's motivation would be at the moment to increase their production rate. They're having no trouble selling cameras that won't exist for months.

It's called "good business" and has to do with creating "happy customers." Seem alike a pretty good motivation for most businesses that intend to stay around for awhile.
 
I noticed yesterday that the balance for my Scarlet-X which has been sitting around for two months has finally been charged and removed.

really wonder how close it is to shipping since my balance is zero...
