“Payment complete”, “Your order is shipping soon” email received this morning.

I’ve never been so happy to see my credit card balance so depleted .

@mjog

I think we can could expect that maybe by Tuesday morning

@mjog Bang on the money!

Haha same here; spent so much this month already and we’re only in the first week.

Does anyone know where our orders will ship from? Had a look on the FAQ but nothing leapt out at me.

From what I’ve been reading on this site I believe the units ship directly out of Taiwan where they are manufactured.

Edit: a post from the batch 3 guild thread noting the tracking info shows Taiwan.

Batch 3 - Intel 12th Gen - Guild

You should see estamation date during checkout process. In my case I ordered on 20th of July and it was estimation late September. Step 2 begin of September, Step 3 and 4 after 2 weeks on 15th Sep. I recieved Notification about Shipping yesterday Sep 19th. Tracker shows it sent on Sep 18th. Store’s estimation looks precise for me. I would expect +1 month delay. UPDATE: Shipping info: Tracking shows Taiwan. That is awesome!!! From spreadsheet it should take 4 days to deliver to German…

Got my payment taken email, and my money is gone. Not long until it ships now, hopefully.

Shipped direct from Taiwan on a pallet with 100-150 laptops into Australia (or US or France) via FedEx where the pallet should be broken down at Sydney.

Also, the spreadsheet isn’t very reliable according to Twist so do not make estimations off of it.

DIY 1260 + adaptor + 2xUSB-C +1x USB-A + 1x HDMI (Which I’m now 2nd guessing and might change to another USB-C)

Maybe not a bad idea geting one more USB port due to the issue noted above with the display modules draining the battery a bit - although there’s a beta firmware out for those now which may address the issue, so maybe not a big one?

Well that depends on how much credence you put into frequentist statistics, doesn’t it? It’s definitely a biased sample of the Framework customer base as a whole, and probably a bit out of date, but it’s better than nothing and preopably pretty representative of the forum and discord dwelling population.

Here’s another Australian future framework owner. Spreadsheet updated.

Hello all!!

I ordered a 12th gen DIY 1260p on the 01/10 for the UK market. Went for a Kingston KC3000 SSD and 2x16GB Crucial memory from a different source.

Have yet to receive any updates, other than the initial pre-order email which states Batch 4 ships in October.

Fingers crossed the wait will not be long.

[Meachie]

I ordered on 1/9 (for Australia), I got my step 4 email that said the payment went through and it said it’d ship in 1-3 business days 3.5 days ago. Hopefully it ships later today or early next week I guess

Same for me @Meachie. I also got email saying it would ship in 1-3 business days just over 3 days ago. Maybe it will ship today , but I suppose I can wait a little longer.

(Edit) Just got my shipment email!, estimated delivery Wednesday next week.

[Meachie]

I just got my shipment email, thursday next week is when it arrives

[yetiman_64]

Yes, same here, I just got the shipping email as well. Due Thursday October 13th.

[mjog]

Yah just got my shipment email too! Delivery slated for Thurs 13th.

[Tinkererer_Belle]

Friday 14th for me

[Paddler]

Nothing for me yet… suspect my request for a British English keyboard may be holding my order up…

Getting very jealous of those who have their ETA’s now… and my HDD and RAM have finally arrived after a trip across Australia…

[yetiman_64]

Notice with respect to the Spreadsheet:

To the Australian entry owner from 2022-09-09 it appears I have accidently overwritten your name in the list with a string of dashes with a jammed keyboard key. Yours is the only Australian pre-order date entry for the 9th of September presently.

I wasn’t aware at the time I had the keyboard problem that any entries were affected. Having just re-opened the spreadsheet I notice an entry has been “dashed out” and I assume it is from my earlier hassles there.

My apologies for the clumsy keyboard usage. The entry is currently number 299 (though that may change over time).

Hello guys,
Good to see orders for Batch 4 are going out, even if mostly to Australia for now.
Waiting on update of my pre-order to EU. Hopefully soon. Really exited to get my hands on it.
My current laptop is 7 years old lenovo Ideapad, with various self-repairs and upgrades done over the years, not sure what i’ll do with it once I have framework.

Ordered 12th Gen i5 on 2022-09-18 to Germany. Shipping started on 2022-10-06. It went from Taiwan via China to France but is now stuck in clearance („Clearance delayed - import“). With holidays on the 10th (Monday) in the US I am worried that FedEx will return the items. Is it true that after 3 business days, they return the parcel?
