FYI- I heard back from Tim at Serenity gear and he cannot do a Futura case/wrap at this point. If he decides to add one of the devices to his collection later on than maybe he will design one. Once I get my Futura back from Nexgen I am going to try my hand and making one myself. I can sew just never tried my hand at doing so on leather. I guess its time to spend some time on youtube learning about leatherworking.

Hey thanks! It's the blue titanium we talked about last weekend.

Just got that one back from the machine shop yesterday, and I'm building it today. Nice color. We're gonna order more.

OK. Cool! Thanks! B-)

All built; should go out tomorrow. Man, I love that color!

Here's a shock! No shipping notice... Wow I didn't see that coming.

Don't feel bad. Mine supposedly shipped Wednesday or Thursday this week and still no tracking number after I was told I would receive one yesterday. If it doesn't show up tomorrow I will contact Jon. Hopefully it does. I fully expect it to.

You have more faith than I do...

I think most of us understand that these aren't empty promises but simply an unfortunate side effect of a group of good, honest people working their butts off to get out a product in numbers they weren't prepared for while maintaining the quality we demand because they are offering something at a good price, quality, and features, made in the USA by the people that live next door the way america used to be. Sure, they're in a little over their heads but what they make out of this can mean the difference between a company that is still there in ten years when you need them to fix a broken switch or one that burns out before its time. Mine was supposed to ship out too. It sucks. Yeah, I'm disappointed but I'm willing to be have a little faith and a little forgiveness because I believe in what they are doing and what they want to be. I have typical chinese stuff. I have a super-t. I have a provari. I want a nexgen because I want a device that can do everything I could want it to do. Something I can be proud of. Hopefully, something that will last for years and when I need a new 510 cap cause I stripped mine out they're still around, happy to help, and even charge a reasonable price.

Call me a hopeless romantic but I want that kind of america back.

You're absolutely right and absolutely wrong. An unfortunate side effect would be and has been them saying "we'll start shipping on Monday or whenever", etc. An empty promise, which to me and others there have been many, is in a direct email or PM telling me the device is built and will ship the next day and then, crickets.... I don't mind waiting for a quality device. All I have asked Jon for repeatedly is my order number so that I could keep track from the forum myself without badgering him. Instead of just telling me it he has told me three times my device was going to ship and it hasn't. If those aren't empty promises idk what they are. That's the source of MY continual frustration with Jon and Nexgen. You tell me how or why I shouldn't be upset about it. I'm all ears...

Willie! Welcome back to purgatory! Glad you didn't die of the bird flu! That would have sucked!

While I understand your frustration and where you are coming from, the majority of your frustration is coming from yourself. I could understand before they started shipping at all why you might have been worried that perhaps we all had been scammed, but at this point, many of us have received our devices, so unless you think that Jon decided to honor everyone else's order and just screw you and you alone over, I'm not really sure where your fear is based.

Now don't get me wrong, I like most everyone else, loves immediate satisfaction. I want to order something and have it the next day, and I get that, but I think if you just kinda took a step back and waited till you got a shipping notification or a device in the mail and then just enjoy it, you would relieve yourself of a great deal of stress. It's not as if you are waiting for a heart transplant and if you don't get in in 48 hours you are dead, it's just an e-cig.
