I received my OP-1 today in London, safe and sound. Despite some import delays that I can't blame on Massdrop, the entire process from drop complete to arrival took 45 days. The shipping from US to UK took 9 of those days. I should have known this, but being a bit of a newb, I wasn't anticipating import and customs/VAT charges on arrival: an additional £109. This brought the grande total (with optional accessories) to $981.77. Compared to directly from TE, this would have cost $1214, so I saved about 19% off list price. Had I sourced it from a dealer on eBay, my savings would have been closer to 4%. Was it worth it? I'll let you be the judge. The fun and excitement of the Massdrop process wore off when there were shipping delays, and I got hit by customs charges, eroding my perceived savings. In the final wrap-up, not sure I'd do it again.
