MCM Order has been "Waiting to ship" for a week... is this normal?

MikeHunt79 · 27th November 2007, 10:45 AM

I'm awaiting some drivers from them, and I cannot wait much longer.

Is it normal for an order to say "Waiting to ship" for this long, or is there something holding the order up?

There is a possibility of a part on back order. Another possibility could be your method of payment... credit card authorization?

I have waited for parts on back order from them. I have also been surprised to have parts shipped in ones and two's and being charged shipping for that.

I refuse to purchase ANYTHING from them. Digikey has done the same ** shipping. Mouser has been decent.

This is the first time I've ordered from them, and I must say I'm not having the best of luck...

I'll send them an e-mail and get them to check my credit card is ok...

I've used it in other shops and it's been fine!

I'd rather they just ship 1 packet really, all the stuff I've ordered appears to be in stock tho...

The thing is, no one else sells the MCM 55-2421 woofers, so I've got no choice but to order from them.

If these drivers were available in the UK things would be a lot easier...

I give up...

I e-mailed them a few days ago, no reply...

The order still says "Waiting to ship"....

Is there anything else I can do? I really wish the MCM 55-2421 drivers were around in the UK....

Anyone else in the UK managed to order from MCM successfully?

I wouldn't panic yet. There is often a delay in processing orders the c loser we get to Christmas,

MikeHunt79 · 29th November 2007, 01:46 AM

ahh, ok... I'm not worried yet, it's not as if I'm going to be giving anyone speakers for christmas...

It's just that I ordered on the 22nd, and haven't heard anything since then... I'll give it another week, and hopefully something should happen...

MikeHunt79 · 29th November 2007, 02:44 PM

Just want to say my order is now shipped.... woohoo!!!

I think there must've been a backordered item (even tho everything was "in stock" when I ordered)....

Anyway, rant over, now I can make a start on my Autotuba now I know the drivers are on the way.
