Topic: Still waiting AVENTUM3????? Posted: 31 Oct 2016 at 4:06am |
So order number --------, what's the hold up???? Worst experience so far. Original order/purchase date of July 12, 16. Still no computer. Wonder if digital storm will compensate for my pain and suffering. Maybe let me hold some of the interest that they collected on my almost $12,000 dollars, yes that was twelve THOUSAND dollars of NON SPONSERED purchase. . Is there a consolation prize for making it to 120 days without seeing my new rig?
I was serious about new gear, free gadgets, hell, might as well just paint the thing for free. Had plenty of time for the paint to dry by now...... Seriously tired of waiting. EDIT - Order number removed - Alex Edited by Alex - 31 Oct 2016 at 8:00am |

I think they was on back order (which does happen for it) and they received batches of the aventum chassis awhile ago. Try contacting Alex @ [email protected] to see what the hold up is

The popularity of the Aventum 3 far surpasses their ability to keep up orders. They are a relatively small company. I feel for both the customer, especially the customer, but also DS's dilemma.
I personally wouldn't be ordering one unless I was willing to wait months for new supplies knowing the ship date will probably be changed. I would suggest they not take orders until caught up, but if the customer is aware of the issue and willing to wait then go for it. Hope you get it soon. |

Yes I may have jumped the gun with frustration. But, after I received my second stage 6 email this morning and now having to wait another 10 days....on top of the 2-5 days for shipping for the first stage 6 email.
I guess it kinda hit me in the feels. I know I will enjoy this gloriously built piece of gaming beast. I will have to post some pics of the set up as well as a unboxing video. |

Please send me an email "[email protected]" with your order information.
Sorry for the delay, we have become more effective with getting units out at a batter rate. This backorder delay will be gone within the next few weeks as we have a large incoming delivery of units. |

Your frustration is perfectly understood and the forums is a great place to vent. It's all about the customer on this forum.
If I had the bucks $$, I would for sure order me an Aventum 3 and just go through what others have posted. It is an awesome custom case and worth the wait, after it arrives of course. Let us know what you think and a couple of pics would be appreciated. |

So are the Aventum units in? or are they still back logged? I'm waiting on mines as well. I'm ready to tear into Bf1 after playing on a subpar laptop.
Also what did you put in there for $12k? A super colldier? Edited by Kyser13th - 07 Nov 2016 at 4:04pm |

@Kyser,
Hopefully Seary is enjoying his by now. Mine passed stage 7 on Friday. Still hasnt shipped or no shipping # yet. Friday being a holiday may delay mine a little more. Has yours moved up any stages yet? |

It's been at stage 3 for about a week now, business days only. So hopefully it moves along sometime this week. Though seeing your took awhile at that stage I would consider mines has quite the way to go. I'm assuming it's also starting to get into the season for the guys down over at Digital Storm where the orders really start to come in bulk.

Seems they are on back order again. Configurator says ETA end of November. Guess I'll be getting my PC somewhere around December......

Hopefully, you have been assigned one already Kyser13th.
I passed stage 7 now over a week ago and supposedly waiting to ship. Not sure really. No worries though. I know it will be worth it and my desk hasnt shipped yet either. lol |

Did you talk to Alex? 3 months seems rather extreme. |
