Thanks for clarifying.

It wasn't. Working between the US and China, Solar, Lunar and fiscal quarter calendars, I needed the real dates spelled out. 

Most caps are set for week 43, the remainder for week 46.

Jay is currently trying to get everything delivered at the same time.

Thanks for the effort in organizing the GB and for the update.

Another bach tomorrow. Then only a few will have to wait until late next week, where the remainder of the caps arrives.

some packages may look a bit crusty, but every single cap has been wrapped in plastic bubbles, then the batch has been wrapped in bigger plastic bubbles (Mouser, pink)

Super job, Soren. Much appreciate all the hard work to make this GB happen.

Thanks a lot. 

Was a bit surprised that it actually took two hole working days to do the re-packing, keeping track of each order ... and finally do a re-check on the excess amounts ....turned out that I had two more 680uF than expected and two less 470uF than expected :wacko: what the H....!!! .....hmmmm, should I really have to open each package in the pile and re-check??? ....I decided to try figuring out when the error might happend from the order in which I did the packages ...which brought me down to two suspects ... and it turned out that the first of the two I reopened did actually have two of each rather than four 680uF :rolleyes:

I certainly hope I didn't make errors that even each other out, and that all packages survive the royal treatment of UPS ...:rolleyes:

Thank you so much for taking care of this. Dealing with a GB of this size is sizable organization task. I'm sure we'll all appreciate it even more once we have finished our amp builds.

Caps arrived, they look great. Thanks SorenB for organising/handling this GB :D

A few sets in excess from the Group Buy is available as a Circlotron basic kit: including ALL pcbs, 4x680uF/550V + 16x 470uF/550V caps

Have added the needed HV boards to the set as well, that was NOT part of the Circlotron Group Buy.

Goes for 400USD/set (equals the Group Buy Price) + shipping + paypal. 

PM if interested.

Soren, I'm not surprised it took two days to repack and prepare for shipment.  This is a big task.  Thank you for all your effort on this GB.  A great help to us.

I am writing as mine arrived a few minutes ago all fine.

Thanks

Geoff.

US: Everything has been shipped (missing a few that has not yet returned their shipping address).

For non-US: only two is not shipped due to either missing shipping address or missing 470uF caps: the last batch has not yet arrived.
