So where is my scope?
Is it too soon for that joke?
SWFA - thanks for the update. I can't believe you guys are working without a fully functioning AC. I'm in Austin and our upstairs office AC was out for a week...everybody dreaded walking upstairs for anything.

So from this I understand you are working as fast as you can. Hats off to you for the deal and discount !!! Always heard that you have a "DRY heat", not like the hot air here in the southeast that you can cut a piece of and chew. Have worked in that kind of heat for years (lineman) and it does get to you. And really can wait untill the fall when it cools off some.
By now you have a total count, bought using the discount code, and a estmated time to produce / assemble and ship to Texas? Any guess?
Eagaerly waiting for the one I ordered!
Thank You ALL that were involved in this group buy.
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: SWFA</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Like Frank mentioned many times we have continued to update when we have something to update. Nothing has really changed since the last update.
One thing I can promise y'all is that absolutely no one wants you to have your new SS-HD more than we do. We are very proud of this scope and can't wait for our customers to get them and start using them. I was up here this weekend doing things to help speed up the process. I logged into SH to take a break for a few minutes, once Sat. and one Sun., both times I posted a funny picture to help break the tension. I did not mean to upset or offend anyone by doing so. I just skimmed through, posted a pic. and got back to work.
We are still getting out as many as we can a day and people should still be getting UPS tracking e-mails. I've got some guys that have agreed to stay after hours and weekends so we can get more out, but they want me to get the air conditioner fixed first.
There was a massive amount of orders the first day but they don't even remotely compare to the orders on the last three days.
Another thing to consider in regards to people posting order dates and times. I am not certain because I have not looked into, but I think that your time stamp may be time zone specific. So people saying I ordered at 1:34 and have not received mine and so and so order at 1:35 and already has his. He may be East coast and you may be West coast. We just receive X amount and the computer spits out the orders in order of when they were received Texas time. There are some delays with credit card problems, wrong billing addresses, wrong expiration date, etc. that take longer to clear up than others, these orders with problems are having product allocated to them but they are not shipping until all of the information is correct. This might also be a reason for some orders shipping before another that was placed at a similar time.
As mentioned at the first of this post, nothing has changed since the last update. We are still working on the first batch. We are a small family business and don’t have robots and automated picking machines, so we are greatly hampered when order volume exceeds are normal daily average. We hope to get some robots soon, but until then I promise y’all that we are working as hard and long as we can to take care of our customers. We greatly appreciate the business.

Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy
Chris and SWFA- again thanks for doing this, and taking the time to package OUR scopes WITHOUT air conditioning on a WEEKEND in fuc*ing TEXAS.
Please don't let the haters turn this sweet treat into a sour one. The majority of us are waiting patiently and cannot care less when we receive it, we're just blessed to have this group buy at such a large discount.
Now...where the hell is my scope?!

Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy
wow...this was my first, and seemingly, last participation in a group buy. The savings in this group buy should've been enough to make even the most wealthy among us thankful. Shit. This is over 30% in savings and I would not have been able to buy one without the group purchase. Thanks anyhow for the attempt. Hopefully the deal was worth the hassle for those interested parties. Though I am not certain whether using the individual's website who obtained the deal for us is the most appropriate forum to bring about any negative or otherwise questionable comments regarding said deal. The only thing from our keyboards on this particular site should be, "Thank you all very much for doing this for us!"

Time for SWFA to pull out the jedi mind trick "These are not the droids you are looking for. You will get your scope when you get it." Thanks for everything SWFA.

Similar situation here. I hope you guys at SWFA didn't take that meaningless 4th of July holiday off and were busy packing and getting my scopes ready for shipment.
It's gotten so bad that I had to dig in my parts bin for a scope to use while I'm (im)patiently waiting.
If I can pat myself on the back, I think I did a pretty good job with the custom shims.

Well who would have guessed? Some people are never satisfied with anything. SWFA could give the scope away and "some" would bitch because they didn't spring for free overnight shipping. If you don't want to wait then cancel your order and I'll take mine sooner. Maybe some poor SOB that missed out on the buy would be glad to take your place in line.

Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy
I have bought a lot of stuff from SWFA through the years and their service has always been the best. I missed this group buy because i do not own a credit card and i could not get close enough to 1000.00 scraped up to get. I was hoping to have my first FFP scope for a build Mike Bush is doing for me. It really sucks because now i have it, so if someone here is that upset about waiting for their scope and having second thoughts please let me know, I will be more than happy to take it off your hands and wait for it.

Oh thats right, all you'll do is really piss off the people that worked hard to get us a great deal and almost guarantee no future group buys. Silly me.

This scope was well worth the small wait.
I will be purchasing a bunch more.
The HD line of SWFA Scopes are a great deal

At 9:41 last night I emailed them to add a set of rings to my order. At 9:44 Skylar emailed me back saying he would do it when he got in to the office this morning. At 7:55 this morning he emailed that he had updated my order.
When I email a company at 9:41 in the evening, I expect to hear back from them sometime the next day or the day after that. I never expect to get a reply in 3 minutes from home. This is my first dealing with SWFA and even though I was never concerned about anything in the first place, this interaction has given me absolute confidence in them.

I too have been adding to my order as I wait for the scope to arrive. SWFA has been nothing but wonderful on the phone. This is my first purchase with them and they have a customer for life.
Many Thanks!

If anybody's tired of waiting for a scope and feels like they're getting the run around, PM me. I'll be more than happy to pay you what you have into the scope and take your place! I can happily wait 3 months for a scope this good at a price like this. Just sayin...

I talked to skylar the other day about changing my order due to a base being back ordered. He had it all changed and good to go within a minute. Have also received very quick email replies from him as well for other questions.
Absolutely unbeatable customer service IMO.

Got mine out yesterday for the first time. Very impressed. First mil/mil FFP and had zeroed in 2 shots. At 100yds felt like the 3/4" pasters were under a microscope. Glad I ordered a second on the last day. Next will be getting it out to 600yds in a few weeks.

I can help out! Let me zoom in on it using my SS 5-20X50HD.
Oh, wait... I can't... I don't have mine yet!
Well, then, let me zoom in on it with my Nightforce instead.
Oh yes, very good. Here it is:
Oops, forgot to set my parallax. Hang on. There we go:

As to your comment I will do what I do regardless, well not true, when people like you fuss and disrupt, constantly posting question and speculation instead of letting it play out naturally, it changes my feelings on the subject. So you absolutely effect things in a negative way. You turned the conservation and set the tone for the last bunch of pages. When you don' t like any answer, you push.
I do have a personal problem with you and instead of pm's I should just black ball you from here, this way we don't have to put up with the constant barrage of your negativity. Basically you're attempting to turn people against this buy as if someone is lying and screwing you. Trust me in this case I would much rather ban then banter back and forth with someone who thinks he has all the answers.
You insult the effort and the process. Turned this thread to shit, it was already locked once because of you, and only unlocked because SWFA felt no kind of heat from it. </div></div>
Looks like this guy Steelcomp loves to complain and make others lives miserable. Any excuse will work, and the more people he can make miserable, the better he feels. I have met a few like that, there is no limit to what they will do. Banning him would be welcomed by many.
