Hey everyone!
For the past month we have been testing out having the AKG K7XX Red Edition live all the time with a fast turn around time using the units we had in our warehouse from the last production run. That went great, but now we've gone and run out of stock.
So starting tomorrow it's going to be a K7XX Red Edition "classic" drop. This means we're doing a whole new production run for everyone who joins the group. It also means classic shipping times that come with having to actually produce a few thousand pairs of headphones. Given historical production times and the quotes from the factory, we're estimating that these will ship out just after July. Because of the longer wait, we'll be adding a $10 coupon to the account of anyone who joins the group. You can use it on any other drop in the future and it will be applied automatically at checkout.
Once we have the group's order, we'll be tacking on some extras to bring the daily store back. For those of you who don't like wait times, but can wait until later.
Cheers,
Mike
MikeMDOut of curiosity, if there are 145 buyers (the limit for this drop), will the drop immediately end and everything be charged, or will we be charged when the drop would normally end, in two weeks? Or, since you mentioned "thousands of headphones," will this not be a limited run, and that was just left in by mistake?
MikeMDHello,
It currently states that the drop is extended until May 23, but it is currently May 19, and it says there are 11 days left. So 11 days from now is May 30, not May 23. What is the actual date for the end of the drop? For all the people that already joined the drop, could we please get a courtesy e-mail when the drop gets extended, or the shipping date gets changed? The date is currently July 27, 2017 for shipping.
Also, will these unit be serialized like the drop description says, or did that change too?
MikeMDHrm, I thought I had made a comment on here about the coupon not appearing, but I don't see it anymore. When is it supposed to show up? I joined the K7XX drop that ended yesterday, and I still don't see it automatically appearing when I try to join a drop. Thanks!
MikeMDI'm pretty sure these headphones were sold as 'limited edition' when I bought a pair on the first ever drop of these. I'm still enjoying my purchase to this day, but I must admit that this is bothering me. Apparently they were far from being limited edition.
