Another delay

Was just reported by a caller to KellyCo that he was told that there was going to be another delay--he said KellyCO suspected a "bug".
 
In all my dealings with Kellyco, I never saw them even once stall retail sales all by their OWN moral decision. I just don't believe it! I think to is a sales plan for added hype, or Minelab never had a realistic ship date. In the end...we will all forget about the smoke and mirrors after it actually gets here. We are hooked. Kellyco always sells if they have supply of anything.
 
And everyone completely trusts a company that sells Long Range Locators, of course.
 
Since it is winter,I suspect shipping/delivery problems.
 
In my dealings, I wouldn't be surprise if that was their way of saying:

"Dear 199 people who pre-ordered, we can't supply you with an Equinox until mid-April. In order for you not to cancel and get your money back leaving us with refunding $199,000 dollars plus, we are going to create a false story/issue so we won't go broke."
 
I was the caller. I called to check on my order. They told me early this morn that there would be a delay. They had originally expected to get a shipment of EQs this week but are now just waiting to hear something from ML. Customer service had a couple speculations as to why they were delayed. Keep in mind I am just repeating what I was told this morning. I want someone else to call and report what they are told. I have never dealt with KCO so I don't know how they operate.
 
The way I understand it is they all go to ML near Chicago and are then sent to distributors. But at this point I am questioning everything I think I know.
 
of First texas machines, which have become obsolete.

Some dealers deal directly with ML and bypass distributors all together according to one dealer in AZ.

Interesting. I ordered two items Monday. They showed up today. Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night...nor whatever excuse someone comes up with.
Unless it’s Newman delivering the mail? Lol
 
I believe that there is a distribution center in Waukesha,WI but I don’t want to say who I think it is because they might be hammered with calls. It doesn’t make a difference anyway,if they don’t have them they can’t ship them.
 
I think what Kellyco and some dealers thought they would get more than 1 to 3 Equinox as they didnt read their E-Mail they got. It was said that all dealers that have any order were going to get 1 detector when released so they have one to show, more will follow. Now that they still dont have the 1 or 3 which I feel will be the first part of next week that they have their customer calling wanting to know where their Equinox is. They have to say something as they were all saying they would have them in in a few days now.
I also wonder if Minelab seen how fast people want them and told the dealers not to preorder or promise any until these back orders are filled.

Which is why you want the 800 instead of the 600. :thumbup:
