Hey guys,

the ALBS Waldorf Bulk Order #1 2011 is taking place. :frantics:

The Bulk Order is closed.

Price per KNOB will be 1,13â‚¬ (was 1,05). Terms, conditions and dates in the Wiki entry.

If you already signed up in the fleamarket thread you will most likely find your name on the wiki list, nevertheless please check it again.

If you are interested and havenÂ´t signed up yet please do so soon on the wiki list, since we already got enough people to run the bulk.

Cool! I’m glad this came through. Thanks to phunk’s efforts! The knobs will arrive just in the right time for me. Right now I’m soldering the 6582baseboard.

Very nice and thanks for your efforts, phunk!

From Wiki:

“At the moment you can choose between black/transparent (Drehknopf DK16-190V3 A.6/4,5 AT=14 schwarz soft-transparent klar) and black/red (Drehknopf DK16-190V3 A.6/4,5 AT=14 schwarz soft-rot). If there is enough interest for other colors, i might order them aswell.”

I would be in for 20 black/white.

Black/White ftw - prettiest knobs ever.

phunk · January 11, 2011, 11:14pm

iÂ´ll add a column…letÂ´s see if we might get over the min order for that color…

This Bulk order would normally close today.

At present the people at ALBS havenÂ´t managed yet to confirm the price and the order in a written email (only by phone), even though I wrote two emails, called them nearly everyday during the last two weeks

and got several promises that they would do it immediately.Honestly that is quite disappointing and it seems they a) have a very heavy workload b) dont really get things done. Either way i canÂ´t and i wont send

you an paypal invoice without a written price and avaibility statement by the company we plan to order.

IÂ´ll keep this bulk open till i got the confirmation and i will go on bothering them on a daily basis. I hope you understand that.

I just entered my Order on the Wiki Page.. hope i am not too late..

Hawkeye · January 23, 2011, 2:19pm

thanks again for your time and efforts… lets hope, that they get their business sorted…

phunk · January 23, 2011, 2:38pm

Yeah, thatÂ´s really annoying. I am very sorry about that but there isnt anything i could change. The order manager does not answer his phone atm and the secretary tells me continuously theyÂ´d have heavy workload. I call again tomorrow

Snoozr · January 23, 2011, 10:12pm

If it’s any consolation, I tried contacting them by email a few months ago and they never replied. Guess they are pretty busy.

technobreath · January 24, 2011, 8:49pm

No rush phunk. Ur work is heavily appreciated.

I think its non-prp of them to promise and not follow through though. It would be better to just explain the situation right away and maybe give a timeframe that they could manage to keep…

phunk · January 25, 2011, 2:30pm

Called again today, wrote an another email. Asking for confirmation. Balthasar S. is not in the office. Telephone girl cant help. Heavy workload *yawn*

I shall call tomorrow again, talk to B. then. LetÂ´s wait and see…there will be knobs one day…

HUROLURA · January 26, 2011, 10:11pm

No hurry.

Thanks again for the time spent on this.

We will keep on being patient.

Maybe Waldorf decided to relaunch a MicroQ Really Final Edition for next MusikMesse :rolleyes:

Damn, i’ve been in need of these knobs for a long time. Is it too late at this point? If it’s not, i would be good for getting 15x of the black/red knobs.

^^ if i were you i would follow the instructions in the initial post asap (by adding your name to the linked wiki page). phunk will let you know if you’re too late.

phunk · February 1, 2011, 8:14am

guys,

i wrote the chief of ALBS Germany, B.S. yesterday, asking for assistance. I hope he will respond any time soon. I have no clue what they are up to, since the only thing I did was asking for an email with all the details confirmed. Might be that we dont get the highest priority in times of heavy workload, but honestly…I am begging for an Email for 3 weeks now…
