The combination of his workload, the weather and the festive season all coming mopre or less together, have caused the delay.
I am informed that I should have them in my grubby mits sometime next week.
I will up-date the situation as soon as I have them, as I do not want to say they will be here on such a date, then have them not turn up.
I feel a big enough muppet as it is, but it is totally out of my hands until they arrive here.
I can then get one packed and weighed , to get a shipping price.


Sounds good - look forward to hearing from you when they arrive!

LAPTOPS - AT LAST!

FINALLY

Apologies for the delay boys and girls. They finally arrived last night. WHIZZO I can start wiping the egg off my face.

My mate has asked me to extend his sincer apologies to you all but when there is only three of you implementing a project costing tens of millions, sorting the out a few lappies was fairly low on his agenda.

The good news, is that I have enough for everyone that showed interest.
The bad news is that I have to re-image some of the buggers! . He just didn't have the time to do them all.
This is likely to take me a few of days.

So, if you still want one, send me a confirmation U2U. I will give priotity to those people that originally wanted one or more.

PLEASE U2U TO PLACE AN ORDER OR GET ON THE LIST.
Don't just post on the thread, I may not see it.

PAYMENT: I will accept PayPal ONLY IF IT IS SENT AS A GIFT. Otherwise I will be out of pocket as I am not making anything on these, just trying to help some fellow Locosters as others have helped me.

Alternatively a cheque is fine if you prefer.

Receipt of payment secures your order.
Order will be despatched after payment clears.
I will send them out in minimum batches of five. This keeps the shipping cost down.

I have sorted packing and a courier.
Total cost of shipping to the UK is £14.08
This includes the shipping cost - next day signed for + £100 insurance cover - and the packing ie; a very strong double wall box designed for shipping laptops and polystyrene 'peanuts'.
The units will be bagged before being buried in the polystyrene.

Parcels can be sent to all Mainland UK postcodes for this price, except the following: AB31 - AB45, AB51 - AB56, FK19 - FK21, IV1 - IV63, KA27 - KA28, KW1, KW10 - KW17, PA20 - PA76, PH1 - PH10, PH18 - PH49.

If you live in one of these areas please contact me for an individual quote.

I also have a few accessories for those people that need a serial port:
0 Port Replicators (uses Laptop PSU/charger) at £ 5.00 Sorry, all gone.
5 Advanced Port replicators (with Psu) at ............£15.00 These are £9.99 on eBay, without a PSU.
2 Docking stations ( built in PSU) at.....................£20.00

First come, first served.

Postage on these is nil if ordered with a laptop, as they will fit in the same box.

I imagine the first lot will be ready to be shipped by next at the Monday at the latest, as I am waiting for the boxes and poly to arrive, this obviously controls when I can start to despatch.

PS Make sure you send me; Your LCB name, your postal address and a contact number for the Courier's driver in case they need to contact you. This is a requirement specified by the Courier.
PLEASE PUT THESE DETAILS IN AS A MESSAGE, WHEN YOU PAY VIA PAYPAL. Makes life much easier for me and you don't have to send another U2U.
Not shouting, just want you to see it.

I will wait until the weekend, to give the guys that originally expressed interest first chance (See list back up the thread). they have all had a U2U.

Then I will offer what's left to those other people that have asked since Sunday.

I hope this is acceptable to one and all.

John.

Hi guys,

OK, for all you lucky people on the 'A' list (the first lot to ask for them) that have already paid, your laptops are being up-lifted between 11:00 and 17:30 hrs tomorrow. Tuesday the 15th of Ferruary 2011, for delivery the following day at the addresses that you supplied.

Please check them as soon as you can and let me know that you have a) received them OK, without damage and b) that they function as they should.

I personally checked each machine prior to despatch and have also loaded the DVD Codec on, so that they will play films out of the box.

I have removed the batteries for transit and each machine has a brand new charger and power lead.

When I have had a breather, I will check what is left and contact all the people on the 'B' list that I can supply.

Apologies to all those people that are dissapointed. If any more become available I will put dibs on them for you and give priority in the order that I have you on the list.

I hope you are all as happy with yours as I am with the ones that I got for my family.

No, I didn't pick the best ones. Although to be perfectly honest, if they had all arrived at the same time, I would have. Lol.

It was when he asked me if I was happy and I told him that I wanted mine to play with EFI that he offered to let anyone on the forum have them for the same price.

Damn, I can't believe that I only just noticed this thread.

I assume all are spoken for now or are there any left? Could use one as a spare.

Just to say to everyone who has bought one you have bought the greatest peice of electronics ever made, my T42 is 6 or 7 years old, has been bashed around the garage and battered from pillar to post and can still run rings around any laptop you can buy in PC world.
