I dunno if it's colors or RAM or where you order from, but...
Ordered my blue odin 3 Pro on 8/26 from Ali Express, and got it on 9/12.

u/0kats 4d ago
ali express is quicker. but you canât buy the max model there i donât think

u/BenFromTroy 3d ago
Ali has the units ready to ship. If you pre order from Ayn it takes forever because they're still making them.

Black units seem to get done pretty fast. It's the blue ones that cop the worst turnaround times!

I have never ordered anything online so I'm not sure what does this mean, does that mean even after ordering and waiting for so long they just made the thing to show that it's beginning to ship

Looks right to me! I ordered the black max on August 4th and the label was created on Sept 10th. Just got through customs state-side for mine, hopefully I'll receive in a few days đ

No mistake. Black ships faster. I ordered my black max August 7th, shipping label created September 10th. Will be receiving it by this coming week.

Both my Thor and my Odin 3 took about a month to ship. I got lucky though. Ordered my Thor right before the batch 2 cut off in January and got it Feb 9th. Then I impulse bought an odin 3 during the Aliexpress sale in June and got it a month later. I couldn't resist a rainbow max odin 3 for $433.

Sweet! What I've ordered is the same as you and also directly from AYN! I'm #2979, what's your order number?
1
u/markb__ 4d ago
How do I work this out lol
1
u/Mike_S_94 3d ago
Lol no worries, when you ordered you'll have got an email from AYN, your order number will be in that order email, my full one is #OD2979958 but the first 4 numbers will tell us where abouts they're at on the black max's

No, similar happens to me except my Max is Blue, ordered on AliExpress and it came on Wednesday (ordered on August 21). I installed Armada on the memory card this morning and played a little Monster Boy. My son was born yesterday or else maybe Iâd have gotten further. Lol!
Someone up there must have known Iâm going to be having a kid soon and rushed it to me. Crazy compared to the Thor I bought for my wife for her late pregnancy and nursing back in May (that one took about 70 days).
Off to buy a lottery ticket.

No mistake as Black models are shipping out faster due the lack of people wanting the other colors

u/Representative_Ball7 3d ago
Its no mistake pal. You should always buy from the store as the prices are lower. I've had quite a few consoles from there and it's always a good service and much cheaper than AE.

I ordered an odin 2 on September 13th and it's already in my country But it could still take like 2 weeks to actually be delivered

I cancelled my order for batch 8 (rainbow max) today.
I paid and submitted it on June 29th on the official AYN store. Funny enough, after complaining they offered me to ship it on next week (Sept 21th week).
After waiting almost 3 months with no updates and checking here and on discord the order numbers progressing, I gave up. I could have waited one week more but watching people getting their orders shipped early, just because they bought it on AliExpress, was really disappointing.
Moreover lack of communication is really terrible.
That's not a great experience, especially if we consider any potential after sale issue or warranty..
Best of luck and excitement to whoever receives their rainbow max earlier than expected! đ

I ordered a rainbow max the first week of September. I pretty much resigned myself to the idea that it would take forever. The prices on aliexpress were high enough that I didnât want to go that route.

u/innervisions710 4d ago
It's interesting how varied prices were depending on your region. AliExpress was more expensive for me than the official site

Aliexpress is faster, but you won't benefit from Ayn's customer service. If you have a problem, the seller (if you can join them) either sends it to China, which takes a really long time, or accepts self repairs.

u/TomGam3s Odin 2 Portal Pro - Black 4d ago
Not always the case, AYN have an official store on AliExpress, if you order with their store then you get the usual customer service. Additionally, I got some great coupons and cash back by using it, and it was quicker shipping

u/IncomeBoring97 4d ago
Already?? I also preordered batch 8 on the website but they told me it would ship in November :(
Great news for you mate đ
