Any word? Luckily I've got a nice MC preamp on loan for the time being.
I talked with Cinemag the first week of September. At that time, they said it would be a few more weeks.
There is an issue sourcing the threaded bushings. The shipment is long overdue. Which, sadly, is happening with much of the supply chain. They originally quoted 12 weeks, but will miss that.
Sorry,
Geary
Hi all,
I would be interested in joining for a pair of these transformers too - is it still possible?
These are the threaded brushing option as shown here? Cinemag 1254 Enhanced Moving Coil Cartridge Transformer (CMQEE-3440A Upgrade)

I just called CineMag and was told that these will likely be ready next week, but he will send me an email with a final answer.
Hoping everything is OK with Geary and he replies soon but if we don't hear from him I think it would be best if CineMag not ship it to him and we find a different arrangement. I should have a few days off for the Holidays and willing to do this myself but that may mean that we each will need to pay shipping again since it was sent to Geary originally.

Good Lord guys! Anyone heard of holidays? Firstly, I am not happy that someone contacted Cinemag. THAT is not the agreement that I had with Cinemag and could put future buys in jeopardy. Since the whole concept of a vendor honoring a group buy is the concept of a single contact. Secondly, I called Cinemag last week,, but did not hear back. Someone interjecting themselves may have contributed to that. The proper and courteous thing to do would have been to send me private message or an email This is the 3rd group buy. It is not like there is not a track record here.
If I sound a bit miffed.....

Cinemag only provided information regarding the ETA and specifically said that the order could only be sent to you so I don't see the problem here.Firstly, I am not happy that someone contacted Cinemag.

I called them on Friday at the end of the work week so we both know that is not related.Secondly, I called Cinemag last week,, but did not hear back. Someone interjecting themselves may have contributed to that.
This has nothing to do with track record. We are now over 3 months beyond the original ETA, which is not your fault obviously but 4 different people from the group posted on this thread since the last update and we have not heard from you. I don't think there is room for this criticizing the group for trying to find information.The proper and courteous thing to do would have been to send me private message or an email This is the 3rd group buy.

I have purchased via this method in the past and can assure all that there was an overrun on the order I was involved in.
Geary will see this through and it will be a case of 'All's well that ends well', additionally these are superb SUT's and the now taken the mantle as the preferred SUT in my local HiFi Group as a result of loans of the ancillary within the Groups members.

I am not going to argue with you. It is quite simple to me. You took the time and effort to reach out to the vendor without the common courtesy to try a PM or email to me. That, IMO, is not acceptable behavior.Holidays? The group was last updated on 10/7, ~2.5 months ago.
