Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater Surfed in on eve of price increase - I bought 'em!

Mine are all Black Oak. As noted earlier, the lead times for the various pieces of the 7.0 system (0.1 to be added soon) ranged from 2 weeks to 9 weeks. I was a bit surprised to get a shipping notification after only 4 weeks, but I understand that Axiom may be shipping A-stock parts to supplement multi-model factory outlet orders.

Unlike doubtingthomas29, I'm not in a hurry. That was a deciding factor in buying factory outlet units; I was willing to wait. But I must admit now that I know they will be here before Christmas, I am psyched!

yeah i bet im thinking about going FO but i dont think i can be that patient anymore.

We feel your pain. We've all been there. I'm still there. This time it's a replaced receiver...and my first DVD player in 6 years (back when I got one of the three they had for sale - $600 Toshiba) I'm waiting for delivery. It's my Christmas present to me...and my wife agrees

I think she's getting me a DVD for Christmas....if I'm lucky

I called and they told me they ship Monday. That is one day early, I guess I'm just not very lucky. I'm having a party this Friday, I bought several X-mas cd's and I was ready to show off the speakers. The reason I'm so disappointed is I was told on several occasions that they would ship early. After all the great stories of customer service I guess I was expecting a little more.

That's pretty high (or harsh) expectations. You're getting your speakers a day early, and that's not good enough?

You just can't please some people. This is the same person who said:

"I'm 6 days shy of 6 weeks and I still haven't received an email. I called up and they said they were ahead of schedule and my shipment should get to me early. What a crock! If my speakers are late I'm going with Rocket 750's."

no disrespect thomas but you cant be choosy i f you want to save an extrat 5% you have to take that chance. its not like they are late. if you would have paid regualr $ you would get them in like 5 business days and thats not bad at all.

They told me on 2 separate occasions that I would have them early. I didn't have any expectations prior to that. I was hoping I would get them early, particularly after reading about how many people here had received their's early. If they had told me,"you will get them on the original date", I would not be upset. You Axiom "fanboys" keep up the great posts.

but you DID get them early, did you not? One day early is still early.

Axiom "fanboys"??????????
I hope you mean no disrespect, since you'll probabaly be a "fanboy" after you recieve your speakers.
I also hope that some of us "fanboys" have given you some good free advice.
