No. I've deliberately left it alone today but I'll be on the phone tomorrow if I've not heard anything.Spann wrote:So - it's the 7th tomorrow. Can't help but wonder, has the original poster, or indeed anyone else in the UK heard anything further?

I asked Bonners for an update this afternoon. Initially given a vague statement and asked them to contact Korg UK Rep for some definitive information - no response so far. Both my usual keyboard experts there, Tony and Amanda, are on hols.

Nothing so far
I am the original poster
And heard nothing.
Tomorrow, I was told by my shop, is the day they arrive at korg uk. Then I suppose they get sent to the dealers. Then I suppose they decide which of us gets our Kronos and who doesn't .
Is this shipment a complete catch up on ordered boards? or are we still on rations ? I wish I knew.
My very nice dealer e-mailed to say within a couple of days Of the 7 th he will be contacting all of us. Presumably he's ordered and has been guaranteed enough to put all his customers out of their misery, he seemed confident.
I promise, this forum will be the first to know if I get the call.
If I don't get a call before weekend, does it mean the ships late or my keyboard hasn't been ordered. Does it mean I have to wait a month, two months? I bet I'm the last to know !
(my wife says that when I feel sorry for myself I end up looking foolish because I always get my own way, so I'm really trying to feel really really sorry for myself )

Same here - I'm the first on their list (K88) but there are a few coming in so there should be a number of happy owners soonkeyplayer14 wrote:Bonners have told me today that they're expecting a delivery this week and that I'm going to get one!

The timing is looking pretty good actually because I don't have much on next week - and I'm not expecting to leave the house much once it arrives!

Congrats. I should be close behind you with delivery probably Tuesday. I asked them not to send it out today as I'd prefer it not to be sitting in some depot over the weekend.Spann wrote:Surprised no-one else has posted today so I thought I might as well.
My dealer phoned to say they have my 88 - hopefully I'll get it tomorrow.
It feels like Christmas Eve.
Cheers,
Spann
