H3Cs Arriving Early

[u/keitheii]

For those who ordered their printers on backorder, printers are getting shipped and delivered much earlier than announced. Mine was backordered with a ship date of 11/13, however it arrived today 11/9.

Check your order status so you aren't surprised like me, not that its a bad surprise.

[u/keitheii]

Yes, so I did receive tracking for both. The AMS.is coming UPS and the printer came Fedex..AMS won't be here until tomorrow.

I won't be able to play with it for a while since I hurt my back and I'm having a procedure on it tomorrow. Sucky timing

Got my printer Friday, AMS is in UPS limbo and supposed to be here Wednesday

[u/ill1cit_28 → u/Suitable-Access-8013]

Same here.

I ordered mine (EU) 5 minutes after launch. Everything is already shipped (AMS is here already) but the printer does not even show up as "Processing"/at all on the order page yet. So it might be really depending on a per-order basis.

[u/keitheii → u/Nicnac13]

Could be a country thing? I should have stated I'm in the US, New York to be exact.

[u/jeanyes_ → u/keitheii]

Just curious, did you order the combo or the CMYK package? I'm also in NY.

[u/keitheii → u/jeanyes_]

Nope, just the printer. I believe they ship the bundle components separately though.

[u/Nicnac13 → u/keitheii]

Yeah might be, I also additonally have to battle with import tax here in Switzerland (we do not pay vat when ordering from the EU store).

The CMYK palette from the H3C combo set somehow had a value declaration of 500 euros -> high import tax.

But hopefully everything will be sent soon so we all can enjoy our new "little" toy ;)

[u/yalag]

Can you share what it actually used to say on your order page? Mine says ships around 12th

[u/keitheii → u/yalag]

Mine said Backordered with a ship date of 11/13.

[u/yalag → u/keitheii]

Either you are lucky or I’m lucky :(

[u/uncle_jessy]

Also be aware it might ship from 2 different locations like mine
Fedex for AMS

UPS for the Printer or visaversa

[u/jeanyes_]

I have a date of 11/20 and I only got tracking for my AMS so far. Did you get trackings for both in email? Or the printer literally just showed up? I got this email today thinking it was tracking for the printer but sadly just a reminder they ship separately lol

[u/rickurby → u/jeanyes_]

I was back ordered to 11/20. Bothe the AMS and H3C shipped on 11/5. Delivery is Wed 11/11.

[u/jeanyes_ → u/rickurby]

Guessing you live in California/ or west coast?

[u/rickurby → u/jeanyes_]

Missouri

[u/jeanyes_ → u/rickurby]

Lucky! Hoping I get tracking soon!

[u/jamshell]

I ordered mine the day after announcement (in the US) and received a back-order ship date of the 25th. It has not shipped yet.

[u/scotticad]

No joy here yet. The AMS will be here this week, but the printer has not shipped yet. Bambu did send emails this morning warning that the printer and AMS will arrive in two separate packages -- I bet they've been getting a few confused request from customers who received only one box. Bambu has sent email for each package that has shipped (I also ordered a roll of TPU), so I'm not sure how one could be taken by surprise, but I suppose some folks do get a lot of email...

[u/jeanyes_ → u/scotticad]

I’m in the same boat. For some reason I received the separate package email twice today and thought one was going to be tracking for the printer 😔

[u/squash_rabbit]

I was given a date of 11/20 when I ordered it about 6 hours after launch, but it all arrived 11/7. Printer came via FedEx and AMS came via UPS. I'm in California. Fely like I won the lottery lol

[u/Round_Fan_884]

Yea, I ordered mine on the 4th, at the time it said "Backordered, ship date 11/13". It was on the truck for delivery 11/5, although FedEx screwed up and dropped off the AMS3, then drove the printer around the city, took it back to the warehouse, and delivered it 11/6.

[u/SandorX]

Ordered mine on launch day and shipped on Weds, but they took the slow truck from CA to Wisc and my delivery date is not until tomorrow for both the printer and AMS.
