InfoMan Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 So the site says all orders will be shipped by March and it's now March 8. Anyone got theirs yet? I ordered mine on December 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gklinger Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 I ordered in October and still haven't received anything either. I guess they could ship on March 31st and still be considered shipped in March. Cutting Curt some slack given what he has been through seems reasonable to me so I'm just going to sit on my hands for another month and hope for the best.

nathanallan Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Curt has been through a lot lately, and I'm also willing to be patient. It'll happen. I can see it now, a warehouse filled with brand new Atari boxes with joysticks in them, waiting to be packed and shipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+acadiel Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 I've been waiting since October as well... first and foremost, I hope that Curt is OK. Hopefully he can get these out or find someone to help him. - acadiel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathanallan Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 I had a sign-- the sticks are shipping (actually from the other thread) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimo Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 But no one has received anything yet. I'll believe they are shipping when someone posts that they have received one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atariksi Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 But no one has received anything yet. I'll believe they are shipping when someone posts that they have received one Theoretically, it's possible that all of them shipped out and no one received any of them.

nathanallan Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Being a USB device, I'm thinking those contacts can be used to daisy-chain the sticks or even have a memory card reader or whatever other USB device onboard. I know a hub can be used for the same result, but throwing an idea out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try to be a bit understanding and not cause Curt any more stress. He's got enough problems and your joystick is hardly priority over his well being.

mimo Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I'm sure I will, I have every faith in Curt, but some kind of message/re-assurance/truth would be nice. I know the guy has gone through a lot recently, but he has managed to post on several other topics, maybe it would have been nice to have some sort of news.

mimo Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 *UPDATE* First off an apology to Curt for my attitude, guess you should not post when tired/drunk or both. There is an update on the Legacy site that states that there has been some problem with Google checkout and some of the orders have been missed by the system. Unfortunately my order was one of these. Curt has promised me to get them shipped this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately my order was one of these. Curt has promised me to get them shipped this week Apparently I too fall into this category. Curt sent me a PM on March 15th and I sent him a copy of my receipt as he was otherwise unaware of my order. I haven't heard back yet but it was encouraging to learn that there was an explanation for the delay. Hopefully this will be sorted out shortly and the good times will be a rolling...

Fletch Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 I purchased 2 sticks on October 17th. Thankfully Google still had my receipt because I couldn't find it on my computer. I sent Legacy my receipt. Fletch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deteacher Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 I'll jump in too and say I ordered 2 sticks on Oct. 25th. I sent Curt an email with my receipt number and shipping address. He replied within minutes, apologized and said he'd get them out ASAP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragos Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 I have no idea what is going on, other than its almost 6 months after I ordered and I have not even a reply.... Top that off with no confirmed shipped sticks makes you wonder. The rough math is somehwere around $150k that people have laid out to get nothing for the last 5 months... There was one guy claiming to have recieved his, but his pics are suspicious... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gklinger Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 There was one guy claiming to have recieved his, but his pics are suspicious... The pictures are interesting as they show a joystick with the Atari logo whereas all the pictures I've seen do NOT have the Atari logo. If anyone is curious, these are the pictures that jmount posted at Lemon 64: Also interesting is that we've all been told there was a mixup with Google Checkout but it appears that someone that purchased through Amazon has also not received their joystick(s). See here if you're curious. Take note of the second 'review' which is from someone claiming to have their joystick. Guess who? James Mount (who has only ever posted one review at Amazon). Frankly, I don't know what to think at this point. Curt's surprise that some orders were lost suggests that some orders were fulfilled so why is it that nobody else, not a single person, has said they've received their joystick(s) and posted pictures? That's what I can't wrap my brain around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathanallan Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Is there anyone in the NY area that can go by and lend a hand? Whatever the circumstances, he's recovering from a heart attack and has several thousand packages to go out. I'd head up there myself but things are kinda rough on the home-front.
