In Reply to: RE: VPI Prime Buying Experience posted by Schlep on March 18, 2015 at 15:58:18
I get it you're ticked off. I get the point that you ordered a new toy and you're frustrated you do not have it yet. Your postings, however, infer you are merely looking for a generic ballpark assurance of when your turntable would be completed (In your words "I've asked very nicely, multiple times for an APPROXIMATE timeline, not unreasonable, but can't get one"). I am confused that when I look at the VPI forum as you suggest, I see the Martch 12th posting from Matt which states "My goal is by April for everyone to have their Prime and for it to become a readily available product." This post from Matt sure sounds like an APPROXIMATE timeline. Could it be that the real issue is that you feel slighted that the president of a company, who is trying to address a production backlog, didn't drop everything and provide you a personal e-mail response to provide the same APPROXIMATE timeline? I'm sure you will enjoy your turntable when it is delivered. I hope you provide some updates of your VPI experience a few days after you take delivery.

I did see Matt's 3/12 post. . . at the same time I saw his March 10th post which asked any forum members waiting a long time to e-mail him directly and he would respond with an 'accurate time-frame'.
I don't feel at all slighted that Mat didn't stop what he was doing and provide a response, however, I have little patience in my life for those who say one thing and do another.
He did provide a 'by April' timeframe so, we'll see how that works out. It's not April yet.
I have to work to earn a paycheck, I shouldn't have to work so hard to spend it. . .

I'd venture a guess the April estimate is a safe bet since VPI should have a handle on the production capabilities and the backlog by now. (It's simple division by now). It also appears they have streamlined their product line since a number potentially available tables are no longer identified as being in their normal production portfolio but are custom orders. I feel sorry for customers who had to front the full cost of a Prime to get in a previously vague long line. Although you had to wait for your new toy, at least you did not have to front the cost of admission. If you think your wait is long, try getting a control unit for an L07D turntable re-capped.
