Purchase from RadioWorld Canada wait times?

Reg VE9VC

Hi all, happy to be soon an owner of a FlexRadio :-)

I ordered on 25 Aug a 6400 w/ATU (was on special order, none in stock).

I see that the FlexRadio website says 1 week wait time for shipping, but I suspect it will be much longer since it is ordered through RadioWorld in Toronto.

Would anybody know or have any experience as to what I am looking at for extra waiting time?

I also ordered a Maestro, but that will be a wait till at least 1Q 2022.

ps: I sent an email to sales@flexradio.com but got no answer :-(

Got an answer from Diane @ Radioworld,. Looks like an other 2 week to get it to them in Toronto, and then more time to get it to me. So a total of 4 to 5 weeks from order... Thank god we're on the same continent!! LOL :-D It'll give me more time to study the manual for the test! There is a test when it arrives? Right? LOL



Edit for Spelling...

Reg,

I ordered my 6400 from Radioworld back in October. Once in-house, they turned it around pretty quickly and it took only a couple of days for mine to arrive, but then I am not far from them. Unfortunately, it is not within their control as to when they arrive at Radioworld. Overall I think it was on the order of 3 weeks from placement of order to receiving it.

Did Radioworld provide an eta? They are usually pretty good at responding to email inquiries. (I think it's sales@radioworld.ca)

Hi Don, thanks for the reply. I just sent an email to Diane @ sales this evening asking for an update. I didn't get an ETA on my original order? The website order status/history does not give much info.. Lets hope I get good info tomorrow.

Cheers

Thanks for the info Pierre, 3 weeks that's not too bad. Now that I understand it has to go through their warehouse in the US first, then Toronto, the delay makes sense... Looking forward to playing with it 😁

Three weeks? I ordered my 6600M in May 20017 and received it in January 2018. I’ve eaten leftover refrigerated pizza older than three weeks.

LOL Neil, did the pizza made it's way to your plate on it's own? hehehe...
