Ordered my Premium September 16th for a January delivery. Just informed I'm #%&* out of luck and allocations are cut and maybe I'll get one next August. Anyone else get the great news and how do they keep dropping new products when can't fulfill past orders. Yes, I get the whole supply chain issue but pros are still being run and available 1st quarter. I'm sure by next August there will be one or two additional releases also. Tad frustrated here and maybe some of you know way more then I do.

That is my issue, I was basically in on day one or two. Had a spot and now told maybe August with no mention of a possible second run spot .If a second March run is actually in the works why wouldn't I and others that were bumped be put into that release? So basically if distros are taking orders for August and we are not officially in that order run we get bumped again? Stern needs to work this out.

So thanks for all the opinions and feedback, really my point was not that my machine was delayed but that I wasn't moved into the next production cycle. I wasn't told that the March run would be possible (they have already sold all of that allotment) and now because that run is oversold they have moved those customers to August while telling me not sure we can fill in August either. Why not use the Spooky approach and be given a production number. That way even if a long production cycle you keep your position in line. I completely understand a single part can delay production but you should be wary of not fulfilling first customer orders and passing those orders continually down the line.

Odd times we are in but everything cycles.
