leech Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 They are $60.00 each and sold as a pair for $120 dollars plus shipping. So that means you probably should have put the store so it orders 1 pair @ 120, because I ordered 1@60, and called it good. (I really only needed the one, but figured a backup wouldn't be bad). So does that mean I should go in and order a second one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is only a single item in the store and the description isn't confusing: Perhaps you ordered before he made a change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to change your order the fault is on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tripled79 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 So there is a website up now accepting orders. Should we place an order or wait for the email since we submitted our email addresses last year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tripled79 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 The preorder list was just to make sure you were notified when the order site was ready. I received this email about 15 minutes ago, so you should have it by now. Yes, you have to go to the website and formally pay for it.... I didn't get an email. But anyway, I guess I'll order off the site. I've been waiting YEARS for this! Defender 2000 with Pro Controls! Yes! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racerx Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 So there is a website up now accepting orders. Should we place an order or wait for the email since we submitted our email addresses last year? As previously mentioned, the email just directs you to order from the web site.

+Starwander Posted October 16, 2018 Author Share Posted October 16, 2018 So there is a website up now accepting orders. Should we place an order or wait for the email since we submitted our email addresses last year? Please proceed to the website and place an order. I am sorry if I did not send you out an email. I tried to double check the list to make sure everyone got a notification email. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linksguy Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 (edited) This is amazing. Thank you for making this. Order placed. It'll be nice to have some fresh controllers to use. Edited October 19, 2018 by linksguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider-Dan Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 When are the first batch of these expected to start shipping? Or have they already started? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlaysWithWolves Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 When are the first batch of these expected to start shipping? Or have they already started? The best way to keep up with the latest information is to check the thread's first post from time to time. He says he should get them at the end of the month and will begin shipping in the order received. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Starwander Posted October 20, 2018 Author Share Posted October 20, 2018 When are the first batch of these expected to start shipping? Or have they already started? They are shipping to me next Tuesday and should arrive shortly after that. Once they arrive I can mail them out 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyFemrite Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 I ordered one set without hesitation. I’m betting once folks receive and comment on Controllers orders will increase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenixdownita Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 .... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- News Updates Update 10-20-2018. The controllers are preparing to be shipped and are in quality testing right now. They are scheduled to be shipped next Tuesday to me. Half via airmail and half via sea mail. Just to shot out please buy some of these controllers if you previously offered to. A majority of people on the pre-order list have flaked out and not purchased them leaving me well below what it cost to make these controllers despite having enough pre-orders for twice as many controllers being sold than I needed! My original plans to try to re-make the Atari Jaguar CD system after this as such are now on hold. .... That royally sucks, if it's a minority so be it, but a majority .... you should move to the top of the post the pics of the finished product btw, it looks very nice but it is lost at the end of the post.

My original plans to try to re-make the Atari Jaguar CD system after this as such are now on hold. I was afraid of that. My own projects have been pretty small-scale by comparison, but there have been many times when people have contacted me to say "right on, dude, put me down for one!", only to disappear or mysteriously stop responding to PMs when the time comes to actually follow through with a purchase. I think it would help if we could spread the word to those who haven't been following this thread. Many of those on the original preorder list may simply be unaware that the controllers are now available. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racerx Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Talk, and adding one's name to a list, is cheap. Feel free to publicly shame those that have left you hanging. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CyranoJ Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 I got mailed twice, to the same address - If you are counting sent emails that might account for some of them. I also didn't order as myself, but bundled it with someone else's order to save on postage - but I have ordered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterG Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 That royally sucks, if it's a minority so be it, but a majority .... you should move to the top of the post the pics of the finished product btw, it looks very nice but it is lost at the end of the post. This is bad news but how do you know they flaked out? Did they message you that they won't order? I'm just asking because for example I ordered a few days ago but if I hadn't and would do it tomorrow or next week, how would it be supposed to be accounted as flaked out or not... In any case this is such a cool thing and really not expensive. People come on, fill your orders! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linksguy Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 I imagine many people will be returning to complete their purchase in the coming weeks and months. Also as more awareness builds you'll end up getting purchases from people who randomly find out about the controllers and never put their name on the list (like me). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In any case this is such a cool thing and really not expensive. People come on, fill your orders! Well you are entirely correct that I don't have a way of verifying they did however I am basing it on the fact that the emails were sent out to all the people on the pre-order list and fairly few have not placed an order or contacted me as follow-up. They simply may be waiting and that is perfectly fine however I suspect that after so much time interests may have changed? Ultimately whatever happens is what happens. I consider it a good experience for myself either way. Regardless I am not complaining and I am glad I had this opportunity to do something for the Atari Jaguar community.
