Hi, I ordered on 7/3, have had no word. These recent posts are making me somewhat anxious. Is something going on at Bogger or it is just this one guy from Malaysia who's lost his box in the mail or something?

I don't want to hassle the guy. Just want to make sure I will get my box eventually.

I ordered one also ... About the same time as you. I've sent Marcus one email since I placed my order because I'd like to get a couple bottles for my Standard size Bogger thrown in with my Mini when it ships to save on shipping costs. I've not heard anything either. So .... I'm afraid I'm no help ... But I sure do hope I get my beautiful stabilized Bogger Mini! It is a little worrisome to see others post that they haven't gotten theirs and have had no communication. Yet I know some others that have gotten theirs! :) A little pop-in here on the thread from Marcus I'm sure would put everybody more at ease. I keep checking. :)

I just checked and my order was placed 7/4 ... And it does say that it takes 3-4 weeks before you get a shipping notice. So I'm not going to worry or stress yet! ;-) Also it states the following about International orders ....

IF YOU ARE AN INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMER PLEASE REMEMBER THAT UNLESS YOU CHOSE EXPRESS MAIL OR FedEx THE NUMBER FOR THE SHIPMENT (IF any number is provided) IS FOR REFERENCE ONLY AND IS NOT INTENDED FOR ANY TRACKING SO WE ARE UNABLE TO PROVIDE YOU WITH ANY TRACKING INFORMATION AT ANY TIME.

I just hope everything is ok, as it has been awhile since Marcus has posted on the thread. I bet he's just swamped with DNA20 orders because I think he's the only one offering a DNA20 bottomfeeder mod at this time. ;-)

It'll be longer than 3 - 4 weeks. Anything that was ordered post July 1st is going to take 30 - 40 days (only counting Monday - Friday), so you're looking at 6 - 8 weeks.

I ordered 6/23 and shot him an inquiry 2 weeks ago just to make sure I didn't need a signature confirmation as I was going camping. He'd gotten back to me 5 minutes later to say that I'm good to go. What worries me a little is that he'd said at the end of the reply that my Bogger was scheduled to ship the upcoming Monday/Tuesday (July 22nd; I'm assuming that's if the lacquer was good to go)... I waited that whole week to see if it would come in the case that he just didn't send me shipping information. Nothing yet. I shot him another inquiry last Saturday... still no word.

I'm happy to wait. It's just a little frustrating to know that it's just about ready and it's not yet in my grubby little hands. :p I'm leaving for another camping trip next weekend and would LOVE to have the Bogger with me.

For those who have received your orders, does Marcus send out any shipping info to you when it's ready or does it just magically appear at your door steps? :) Thank you!

Hope Marcus is alright. While I'd love to have my Bogger in hand, I do hope all is well with him and wish him all the best :)

Hmmmmmmm ... Did he tell you that anything post July 1st would take 6-8 weeks rather than the 3-4 weeks? If that's the case, it will get into when I'm going out of town also. Ugh!

Yeah ... I can see where you would be worried if it was shipped over a week ago! I don't trust USPS either! ;-) LOL! I would think that if it ships there would be a confirmation email sent with a tracking number. But I don't know that for sure either. Maybe some others will chime in here and put the worries to rest.

On the website, the latest update says:
We are a fairly small shop and AS of July 1 2013 any customer order box will take between 30 and 40 business days MON-FRI not including any holidays to complete before shipment is made because of the dry times involved in the lacquer and the glue used on the boxes plus our current work load at the time, We give the lacquer at least 7 days to cure before we sand and buff it and in some cases longer depending on the weather because the humidity plays a huge part in proper curing. Some woods are very difficult to work with and take extra time as well. If for any reason you are not willing to wait for your HAND MADE BOX please do not order. We do our our best to get them out as Quickly as possible but we will not rush to get it done and possibly sacrifice the quality of our boxes.
:) So with that, I'm counting it as 6 - 8 "normal people" weeks. :p

Yeah. :( I hope USPS isn't the case. haha I'd be happier if Marcus DIDN'T send it out yet just so that I can be sure it's not lost. :p I'll hang on for another week or so until after my camping trip since I don't want to badger the man. :)

Edit: I didn't look to see if your previous comment mentioned anything about getting a custom box. haha! In which case, my comment only holds true for custom orders. :oops:

I'm sure if you message him and ask him to hold them another week, it won't be an issue.
The thing is, based on his first response on the 21st telling me that it "should" be ready to ship by July 22nd/23rd, I'd sent him a second inquiry as to whether or not it was shipped yet, on July 27th, and asked that if it was already shipped, to please provide me with shipping information. I've yet to receive a reply from him.

If my inquiry was overlooked, it's all good, I'm not demanding him to answer or whatever (....yet. It's still only been a month since I ordered) - I just don't want to flood his inbox. But at the same time, kinda being left in the dark not knowing what's going on is a bit uneasy.

Received tracking info on both of my orders a few days before they actually shipped. I'm under the impression the tracking info is sent when the shipping label is printed, then he drops the package the at post office / has it picked up when it is actually ready to ship.

While I "want it now" as much as anyone, the more I look at my boggers the more I appreciate the work that went into building them.:)

Thank you, thank you. :) Like I've said previously, I'm more than happy to wait - I appreciate the work that goes into custom made products. I was just confused because of what was said in his replies - I had first sent an inquiry in regards to whether or not there was signature confirmation (July 20) and was told no, but that my Bogger should be ready for shipment that upcoming Monday/Tuesday (July 21/22). Not finding any tracking number for that week, I sent another inquiry (July 27) just to make sure that either it was still with him or if it was shipped but I did not shipping confirmation. Having not received a reply from Marcus for several days, I just wasn't sure where my Bogger was at that point. No biggie - he's a busy man, I'm sure. It just would have put me more at ease had he replied within the first couple days and told me it was not shipped yet.

:) Latest update? I was having a good sleep and for some reason woke up at 0430 with a gut feeling that I had an e-mail from BoggerBoxMods. I grabbed my phone and checked my e-mail. Lo and behold, I have a shipping update! The label has been printed by Marcus and I'm just waiting on USPS to scan the stuff so that I can get updated tracking information as it was one of those older recycled numbers (haha! Item was "delivered" in 2010. Oh USPS... :p) hehe! :D

It'll be just my luck that it'll be here while I'm on my camping trip. :p
