News on Chunk Systems Bass Synth

I just got an email (+ a Paypal invoice) requesting for the remaining amount of the preorder money.

It said: "The Chunk Systems Octavius Squeezer is not ready for shipping."

Did someone else get the same email?

Is this a typo? Should it say "NOW"?
 
I'm so glad I did the Bass People deal now- just paid, and the grand total including what I already sent for a deposit was under $450 shipped. I'm almost hoping that I DON'T like the pedal so that I can sell it to someone in the UK for a good profit to pay for Christmas presents this year :D :D
 
I picked up mine from Bass People yesterday. Haven't stopped playing with it yet, with the exception mentioned below.

It's strong and sturdy, but seems to be a real battery hog... took it out to a jam last night after testing it out with a supposedly new battery for only an hour or so, and it died after about 30 mins. I wasn't sure what was wrong with it as it gave a confusing "reading card..." message which made me think it wasn't working. Got home, connected it to an external power source and all back to normal. The quick start guide recommends changing settings to extend battery life at the expense of sound quality but I hadn't done that at that stage.

Sounded awesome up to that point and I haven't even got started on the custom settings yet... having way too much fun with "Who's Your Daddy?"!
 
Hows the tuner?

I have the money. But I need a car. Damn. I wonder if I bought 2, if I could sell one and completely cover the cost of the other?

If you bought two and managed to sell one for the price you paid new, then it would be exactly the same as if you bought just one for yourself :D
You can't get the Bass People deal anymore, so if you bought a new one, it would be at the regular US price.
