Mine just arrived.
I've yet to count out the components... but the obvious big bits are present.
Tonight will be interesting!
Thanks dontdiewondering!

My wife has collected my parcel from the post office, I will hopefully be able to check the items late tonight.
For others I have this spreadsheet that should list O2 design description beside each line of the order. Hopefully it helps identify the parts (I'm not sure how they're labelled) and simplify finding where the substitutions are against the 'default' BoM.

Safe Arrival
Yep,
Mine was waiting for me when I got home. All bits present and accounted for.
Thanks again DDW

Hey, hopefully 10 people got a package in the post today.
Just waited outside for 10minutes after I got home from work and the delivery driver rocked up. I now have my parcel in front of me.
About to open and check it out...
Cheers DDW!

I feel so stupid....Just remove the spaces from the tracking ID 😉

No worries, as you say most of the information is in BFs hands, we can't do much than pick little bits and guess the rest...Thanks for the info on how ollie's pcb GB was supposed to go down, as always I think we that are left now do not know how that part worked. Perhaps when BF returns he can clarify.

You've got email!
Later tonight I'll check all my parts are correct. Tomorrow night I'll look at finances again, double, triple check what I do know. fordgtlover is going to have a look over and compare our calculations.
I've got a pm from Ollie letting us know how much postage was to be given per pcb to BF. Need to work out what that should have totalled up to. Then I'll add that into the mix.
I'd still really like to see a receipt from BF for the gst/duty costs.
I'd also like BF to advise whether the prices he's noted for batteries is including postage to Aus.
DDW, so you have a package for Things? No idea how he got in on the GB unless he managed to make initial contact with BF outside of the forum somehow. Did you have anything for MoonShad0w?
Not for things or moon shadow. VF said he had a 'double kit' left which I bought one of the kits however I think it may have been little fishes because I never got anything for him. I have sent BF a text and have nothing in return.
Received the parcel in the mail today. Been over it and from what I gather all the components listed on the bags are present and correct. Checked items with bill of materials and it all looks good. Thanks for all the effort, look forward to putting this together. cheers.
Started sorting my parts about an hour and a half ago.
There are parts missing and I think I might have extras of others.
The most obvious problem is missing opamps. I only have four!? but I have three kits!
This is doing my head in so far.
Awesome...
I'll sleep on it.

@DDW, thanks for those clarifications, I'll have another look through finances tomorrow and get in touch with fordgtlover and see what he's discovered.
@sqveak, Uh Oh. Hopefully someone tracks down if those op amps are in the wrong package!
I just had a quick look through mine for 20mins. I haven't opened every bag and checked every component but I have done a quick visual check. Main thing I haven't had time to check is the resistor and capacitor values. At first pass all seems ok for me.
Two minor things to note:
0) the current BoM from nwavguy has changed since these were ordered. R9 has changed from 40.2k to 33k in the current version. I think this was a just in case change. Not important, but could leave you scratching your head if you missed that.
1) I didn't note in my previous review but Q1 is also a substitution, it is on the subs list on the main BoM list and is OK.

I received my package today, alas haven't had time to go through all the parts. But what I've checked so far is fine (the smaller resistor and capacitor parts)...I'll update if I find anything missing or spares.
My package just arrived at work. Main parts are accounted for (2 PCBs, 2 sets of batteries), I'll check the individual components tonight. They look well packaged and labeled. Thanks BF and DDW.
Got the parcel yesterday - thanks DDW!!!
Didn't think I would see this before x-mas, and I'm so glad to be wrong.
Just finished going over the parts (great job packing and labeling BF!) seems like everything is there (haven't measured resistors mind you).

BF finally responded to a text about Little Fishes order with a " I'll get back to you tonight" so hopefully it'll include an update about the panels. Glad people are getting their stuff, the rest should get there tomorrow.
All parts checked and measure fine.
I noticed the following substitutions:
R9 = 40.2k instead of 33k
C6, C7 = 0.22uF MKT/MKS instead of 1.0uF MLC
These look correct according to the Mouser order analysis spreadsheet.
