CrashEd Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 Strikes in France? LMFAO: what next? Will the sun rise in the East tomorrow morning? LMFAO. Yeah, I know, an unlikely thing to happen in France ;) Just trying to provide a rational answer rather than the usual jumping-to-of-conclusion answers we tend to get on here (not you btw :D)

kylania Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Pacience is a virtue little grasshopper. F' patience. Two week constantly sliding delays for absolutely no reason, with no communication, is rather unacceptable. Add to that US shipments ending up in other countries, and well, you end up with a lot of justifiably pissed off people. I preordered weeks ago, I might get it in another few weeks (I've seen nothing to indicate that any product is on it's way here). Meanwhile some guy in the UK wakes up today, thinks "Gosh, I sure would like that!" and has it in his hands a few hours later.

Out I could make it so the hardest part is letting go. Just leave door unlocked, put gun in safe and tell me when. :D ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P

Flim Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 I'm in the same boat, my shipment was suppose to be here this week, still waiting without any word! I assume they have delayed all of the USA retailers!
WarriorX Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 It's about time for Thrustmaster to issue a statement to let the US market know when they will be shipping units to us.

sobek Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 How did you already get your Warthog? How many folks have received theirs?? The situation is a little better here in Europe, it seems. Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives!
kylania Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 I got a response back from BLT. They said they are at the mercy of the manufactuter and their ETA remains "Nov 2nd through Nov 10th" but they don't have any information more than that. Seeing as every US retailer I've checked with all either haven't gotten their order or are being told a Nov 10th delivery date, so I'll just keep my BLT order. Seems everyone in the States is getting screwed over so might as well save $100-200 and pretend I got it for Christmas... maybe, if it ever arrives.

skypirate Posted October 30, 2010 Posted October 30, 2010 (edited) "Funny" fact about TM Warthog and Customs I could not resist to share this with you.. Today I was about to receive the package containing my Thrustmaster Warthog device. I must say HATS DOWN to Thrustmaster guys as they have created something so real, that the Dubai Customs officer denied releasing the box. He said I was gonna plant the thing into something and go bomb the Taliban.... Ehh, what'ya know... :joystick: Now I am trying to figure how to convince the Dubai customs that the Warthog set is actually something built to be used for games (or not?)... Other well know fact making my life miserable is that worldwide the customs officers are also known as jar-heads. Pheu, another wasted day........:doh: Edited October 30, 2010 by skypirate [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]Regards!
