Jaime Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Johannes left a message on my voicemail last Friday to say that delivery was delayed and they would speak to me this week. So I phoned this morning and they said that they had problem with the manufacturing side and that they were working through the orders in strict order however they could not even give me an estimate of how long I'd have to wait I asked them to confirm my order date and that was 13th April..... so I sit here waiting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Looney Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Poor you Jaime You've not been tempted to opt for a different colour instead then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Oh Jaime, I'm so sorry to hear that. Hopefully they won't keep you waiting for much longer. Fingers and toes crossed for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallina Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 I haven't heard that I am not getting my Cube on Thursday: bu I will only believe in it when I see it. It's such a good job I didn't rashly buy any chickens. I am going to be either first or last delivery of the day: I hope to find out on Wednesday which it is to be (or neither). I ordered just before the official launch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny Smedley Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 My date was due to be wed 16th May & have not heard anything to contrary but am going to ring tomorrow ( Tues) to confirm time . Will keep you posted . Fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny Smedley Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 I've just rung Omlet & my delivery is between 9-10am tomorrow Wed 16th May . I know that it must be irritating for those whose dates have been postponed but I can't help it - I'm sooooo excited & have to share it with others who understand the whole " chicken thing" , so I hope you all don't mind.( my husband doesn't & thinks I'm mad .) I was retired on ill health last year from work & can't do much now , but I get so much pleasure from my chooks , especially when they follow me around in the garden when I'm out there weeding , if it's a "good day". Anyway , I'll try doing some photos & get them onto the forum tomorrow - particularly of things people have concerns about like door locking , heights of ladder , wheel mechanism etc. May be beyond my technical ability though ! Prefer chickens to computers any day!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronze Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 s'ok Jenny we're excited for you. After all the sooner people get their cubes the sooner the people after them get theirs. When I placed my order with James he told me end of the month but seeing as people like Jaime were well ahead of me I very much doubt that. As long as mine arrives before my not yet hatched chicks (not yet layed to that matter) get too big to live in a box in the utility room I'm ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 That's good to hear Jenny Can't wait to see a real cube in situ, don't forget to post loads of pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny Smedley Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Will post pics asap - may have to get husband's help as I'm not technically minded though. If anyone wants to come & see it , they are more than welcome or if they want a specific query answered , just yell . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffie Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Yep as it's by courier, no hens with it BBx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny Smedley Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 A few days ago there was a query about whether or not the cube would be built by Omlet -my green cube + 5 hens ( to keep my 1 hen company) are arriving tomorrow (Wed 16th) at 9 am . I checked with omlet & as they are being delivered by omlet themselves rather than an outside courier, the cube is being constructed by the Omlet delivery man. Hope this helps whoever it was that was wondering. (Can't remember who it was) I'm glad about that as I'm useless at DIY ! About 20 hrs to go!!!!!

buffie Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Hi Bron did you want an early delivery? If so they may have queries but because I've ordered for 9 weeks away they said they can give a definate date of delivery. Does that make sense BBx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenny the cube is assembled if you order chooks, if you don't it gets couriered to you. Mikey is going to assemble ours, with some interference from me BBx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 We're not having chooks and ours is being assembled, or at least I hope it is, that is what we were told I think it's because we ordered it so early Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffie Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Shouldn't that read 'supervision' Buff? No I was being honest there Clare.. I could say supervise but we all know I will be doing far more. Mikey will enjoy the big meccano set to play with. Perhaps I'll just clean the mark 2 out while he plays Maybe check Debs with Omlet, it says they courier with no chooks on the blurb.

Aunty e Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Mine is being couriered on the 22nd (hopefully), and I don't think man with van will put it up for me (I'd want to do it anyway). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
