Your machine should ship within a couple days of them coming in this week http://www.everlastgenerators.com/fo...9262#post39262
When you receive your long awaited PP256 and are assembling it be cautious in the assembly of the regulator in its location. I found that the supplied screws were too long and one could have caused damage to the transformer winding directly behind it. I removed the cover and then made a determination to cut the screws so as it would not contact the windings. Again things may have changed since I received my PP256.
thanks grandslam, ill watch that... im a little confused.. i got an e-mail from ups saying a label was created on 11/13 but since than when i click on the tracking number if says that the shipping label has been created but they (ups) have not received the shipment at their location ???
Same thing here bubba! I was suppose to receive my welder sometime this week after the shipping label was created on 11/16 (and listed the date of arrival as 11/19 "by the end of the day"). I wrote this week off as a loss due to the holiday. Hopefully next week the Thanksgiving elves will finally have time to send our welders off!
Well I guess I'm not alone then. I ordered mine Oct. 18th. Tracking says it shipped Nov. 16th with a delivery date of Nov. 20th. After the no show on the 20th my delivery date just disappeared? UPS says it's lost in transit? Hopefully I'll hear something definitive Monday.
I ordered a PP50 Wednesday evening the 21st, ups label was generated. So it's sit sitting with Oleg. The only thing UPS was shipping/delivering Friday was next day air packages. So mine won't ship till the 26th and maybe delivered around the 3rd or 4th. Last year when I ordered a 140st it got delayed because of a flood we had around here. So the way my luck goes, the PP50 will most likely get caught up in a blizzard somewhere between Ca and Pa.
We are like kids at Christmas time waiting on Santa to bring our presents aren't we :)
I ordered two welders and the shipping label was generated 11/16 saying delivery 10 days later on the 26th, but UPS never takes 10 days to ship anything. Unfortunately the tracking number still doesn't show them at the UPS facilities as of the 25th ??????
I hate to say it but its common for businesses to generate a shipping label as soon as the boat from China shows up on radar and then take a week or so to unpack and ship. This keeps people quiet and makes them think UPS is the holdup. Hopefully this is not a game like that and I'll happily post if the welders do acttually show up tomorrow. After years of shipping I will confirm that Thanksgiving can certainly delay packages.
This is my tracking number 1ZW636030355542089
When checked, it says this,... A UPS shipping label has been created (on 11/16) Once the shipment arrives at our facility, the tracking status--including the scheduled delivery date--will be updated.
It seems to say the package has not yet arrived at their facility because there is no updated tracking status or delivery date??
has the ship come in....
In the same boat here.what my tracking # says...
Location Date Local Time Activity
South San Francisco, CA, United States 11/16/2012 4:36 P.M. Pickup Scan
United States 11/16/2012 9:13 P.M. Order Processed: Ready for UPS
No update since the 16th..I do show a delivery date of the 27th but would have thought that it would have been scanned through a hub or 2 on the way.Guess i will find out tomorrow.I also ordered something from ca that was shipped and is scheduled to arrive on the same day..It has been updated several times times on it's trip to me.
I ordered a torch week before last, got label, said 21st, UPS got it Thursday I think, then it sat there with no update on location, but new ship date of today. Talked to my UPS guy, apparently they did jack squat Thurs-Sun this week. It's been sitting in the local destination since Wednesday. Hell, even the trash guys came on Friday, UPS really couldn't deliver ground Fri or Sat? I got air shipments Friday... (nothing against Everlast, my rant is all about UPS). Just because you don't see updates doesn't mean it isn't moving, once they have it, I've seen a week go by without updates then there's like 5 destination/departure entries in one afternoon.
Lately I've been choosing USPS or Fed Ex when available, even paying the extra dollar or three. Seem to be much faster and more reliable to where I'm at. They also break less stuff.
ups does have a tendency to "drop" ship.... and I tend to get free"air" delivery with most items...Thrown through the air up on to my front porch. pun's intended.:mad:
Yes ups is a little in a mess, I have some parts coming from Canada delivery date 11/26/12 and they just disappeared last week and are nowhere to be found.
I had two neighbors who worked for UPS, one on the line and one in loss prevention. NEITHER would order anything that was shipped UPS, they'd pay extra for any other shipping method or order from somewhere else online... Kinda reminds me of not eating at restaurants or fast food places the employees won't eat at.
Thank you for the update oleg.Looking forward to to the day it arrives.
Just checked. I now have an origin scan and a scheduled delivery date of 11-28-12.
I just checked my tracking as well. My welder should be here tomorrow according to UPS, of course that isn't much comfort to everyone that lives outside of CA. I'm 1.5 hours away from San Francisco, which basically means it should have arrived in the afternoon of the morning they shipped it....Let's just hope it doesn't come destroyed now! :mad: Luckily the 160 STH has the carrying case to take any shipping damage.<fingers crossed>
Positive thoughts people, positive thoughts! :) I feel better already....:D
checked to tracking number this am.. looks like its on the road... delivery expected this friday 11/30..
im a long way from ca..
Likewise here.
Well, good news and bad news (for me anyways). The good news is the welder arrived in it's packaging completely undamaged and looking (and smelling) like brand new. The bad news is I didn't get a foot pedal with this unit. The Ebay auction was supposed to include a free ($119) foot pedal if the "Buy It Now" feature was used (which it was). I emailed the seller through Ebay, so we'll see. Hopefully this is something that can be taken care of without me having to whine, pout, kick, scream, cry, or name-call. Not that I would ever resort to those kinds of things. Hell, for all I know they sent the pedal out as a separate package....Continuing to think positive thoughts!:)
email Katya she will take care of this. This is not an issue
status@everlastwelders.com
Thank you both, I sent off an email and got a response plus an apology from both Katya and Alex. My pedal is suppose to have shipped today, so no big deal.:)
I'll hold off on commenting on UPS until my pedal shows up! UPS may be lurking on this forum and reading all of my posts (specifically)! In that case, I'll also refrain from referring to "UPS" as "OOPS." LOL
I got my tracking number from Oleg last night looks like my machine is in route and i shipped out the machine i sold to CA yesterday via Fedex , Might be interesting to see how the delivery time compares with both companies.
My shipment to CA is about 8 hours ahead lets see what happens.
This makes it interesting m My welder is about 12 miles from me and has been there since yesterday afternoon , I was about 600 feet from it Friday picking up parts in Lenexa Ks next to the UPS terminal where it is. Now for the fun part , The welder will be shipped to the UPS terminal in Kansas City Kansas right next to the Kansas Missouri border,Sometime this weekend if everything goes as planned it will be sorted and scheduled to be delivered 35 miles west to my home sometime Monday.
Just checked my tracking number and the package is about 60 miles from me at a terminal, from there it will go to another terminal and get delivered Monday.
The package i sent to CA Tuesday via Fedex arrived to the buyer on Friday, sounds like everything made it OK.
Got my 250ex today!The box had seen better days but everything inside survived.Got a chance fire it up and play for a few mins.Sadly i am about to go work out of town for the week...
My 200Dx arrived this afternoon in good shape no outside box damage, Consumable box with torch ect had been torn But everything was OK.
