....Attemped delivery?! great, but whats that all about - I have no card or anything to suggest an attempted delivery, do i need to contact someone to pick it up or what??

What do I do?

Also, thanks for the videos - the unit looks great, hopefully i'll have mine in a few days and it wont get returned to sender - that'd be a mess!
I have had the same with no card posted:
Attempted Delivery Abroad, June 07, 2008, 8:50 am, GREAT BRITAN


I believe it is parcelforce who handle the USPS parcels, it may be worth giving your local branch a call.


EDIT: You can enter your tracking number on to the parcelforce.co.uk website..it will also give you a new reference number.

mine says:
Service: Parcelforce 48
Status: Held

09.06.2008		Nice... Today I picked up my VCI from the customs-office here in Germany. I had to pay 36 Euro (around 50 Dollars) duty for the vci... it could have been worth...

Now I can't wait to get home from work and try out my new toy!!!

Thanks Ean for all your efforts!!!

In terms of them including LE, that came as a surprise to me too, I was told the would not include Traktor LE and then they showed up with it anyway.

Not sure if you saw this, but you still might have a chance at one of these:

The Remaining 10 will be sold at the end of June. Please subscribe to the email list and mark that you are interested in the Black VCi-100 if you want to know when they are available.

For those that already own a VCI-100 or want to buy a regular one, in the coming month we will be offering a upgrade package which includes:

  • A midi software translator: to change the controlls of your normal vci-100 into more interesting messages that match the firmware.
  • TKS files for Traktor
  • New plates or possibly a new black skin that will make your silver vci-100 black and add all the function listings of the special edition.


This package should be about $90 depending on how much they charge us for the plates or the flip style covers.

06.06.2008		you could always call them?

helpline for Customs duties, excise and VAT: 0845 010 9000

8.00 am to 8.00 pm Monday to Friday - admitally you are now screwed until 8 on monday, but hey, it could just turn up on you door at that time!

If any UK buyers could keep the rest of us updated as to when they hear anything. I imported a guitar from the US 2 years ago and customs had it for 6 weeks before somebody saw fit to contact me about getting it. Geniuses.

At least someone in HM customs had a chance to learn Summer of 69.


Edit; If anybody knows where the holding office is (London maybe ??) I'll go down with a lovely traybake from my nan and see if that wont speed things up.

06.06.2008		Ah, yeah, I see.

That's unfortunate. Still, I'm sure all the problems will fade away once we've got the controllers in our sweaty mitts.

;D

Fuck it mate, just keep T3.3. The SE is designed for it anyway.

I am becoming increasingly convinced that there's a been a big rave up in UK Customs since these arrived there on the 3rd June.
A game of pass the parcel by the sound of it, juggle mode on.

Can someone post a vid of this baby in action?

I must say. I didn't realise VAT had to be paid. Read an article from some journo who imported an iPod purchased off eBay and expected to pay tax and was not charged so thought this may be standard. I hope additional costs don't add up too much. Whatever the case I wish they would get a move on as I was all hyped up waiting to get it sometime this week and now have to wait another week...........

Riccardo gava
05.06.2008		They should be classed as USB devices, not mixing decks. No audio or video passes through the unit, it's technically an advanced mouse!

We really need to start a stickied post that answers this question above.

Here's a post from Ean with the info you need:Black VCI-100SE- Update
Your other option is to purchase the upgrade kit:

This package should be about $90 depending on how much they charge us for the plates or the flip style covers.

These should be available by the end of May!
