Ordered on the 29th August, 30th August Completely Shipped received nothing
Order redone by them on the 20th October. Got a nice little email saying all in hand expect 5 days for it to be handed to UPS for delivery. 21st October moved to Completely Shipped and have heard nothing since.
I think...
Looky looky ....Office coming on the 1st Nov.... unfortunately the expedited build my office means I have no funds to fix it to anything and definitely no funds for a new screen . do you think they'll be pissed off if I ask them to delay delivery for 6 weeks
Well well well I've had an update from Fanatec....
I guess mine falls under the under the in limbo as it was just marked as completely shipped.... so lets lay bets..... gift voucher for your next purchase as a proper apology?
100% recommendation for Fanatec. Can pretty much guarantee they'll get an order to Saudi quicker than they can the UK. Thats not exactly saying much though.
Still nothing on my order but this has come from their CEO. Doesn't sound like they are any closer to resolving anything.
I'm just going to sit tight, new office being delivered on the 1st Nov so as long as I get it by end of November it suits me well and I can look to get a decent rig to fix...
Can't see anywhere the price and not available yet? Only 3.9nm as well. The Fanatec has the option to go up to 8nm for another £100.
Will that also be upgradeable to add a clutch, gearstick etc?
Also any idea on how long I need to contact my bank before its to late to get them to get my money...
So thats another week and nothing still.....
At what point do I call it a day and try to get my money back? I've read they aren't even responding to people via the customer support.
Stupidly paid on my debit card as well which probably limits my come back, although I do have one response form...
Things look like they might be moving

Any idea where the UPS tracking number is normally displayed on an order?
Notafanatec clearly.
Thinking back now, there was a note on their website that they wouldn't be shipping on the 19th/20th August which makes sense of them moving warehouses.
I'm no logistics expert but it sounds like they've just closed one warehouse, put it all in a van and moved it to a new...
Fair play, They've replied already.
Processing backlog due to a move to a new EU Warehouse move.
Sounds like the warehouse move was a s**t storm.
Fair enough, it is what it is. As long as it turns up then these things happen. Haven't got the cash to buy the rig yet anyway or anywhere to...
Sent asking for an update on expected delivery date and what the logistical issues are.
Once I submitted the form it said I can expect a reply within business days.
That's cleared that up then.
Still nothing from Fanatec on my order.
Got all my cash, set the order to fully shipped a few days later, week or so later an email saying logistical issues not shipped, we'll update you order with the shipping number when its shipped. Heard nothing since and over 3 weeks since I paid. Pretty...
This is where I got......
Research objective - no idea how to figure that out - gave up
Some side mission to study fauna, flora and minerals - Randomly did a few minerals I think, no idea how to do the others - gave up
Kept banging on about radiation and hypothermia - tried looking at my suits...
So.... ordered on the 29th, went to completely shipped on the order on the 31st and now I've had an email saying that due to logistical reasons they are unable to process my order and they will get it to me as soon as possible. When dispatched they'll update my order with the UPS tracking...
That is superb thank you.
My main needs for the rig are, being fairly rigid, thinking I'm going for a fixed one now and put it in the kids room if she really does reject the idea of me putting it in the living room until my office is built. Also needs to fit if possible from about 1.2m up to me...
Plenty of questions......
First I know nothing of the technical side, the last paragraph means nothing to me. I'm probably only going to play Forza Horizon to start and but that Assetto game and rock it on my Series S. Outside that I have no idea.
Questions about the rig though, if I buy...
This one is on me, I'm beers down, been called out for work and thought I'd extend my time to help a fellow CSer out.
The old girls hasn't been out for years, putting a few pounds on after f**king over so many men and being eight kids down, but I welcome back the SWT.
Thank you, I did look at the load cell pedal, think it was 139 euros if I bought it now or 179 on its own and watching the reviews and the force needed I'll probably use what I got until I decide on my rig.
Started looking at something like this... (can roll it behind the sofa before she gets...
Well that's purchased. Added in the desk mount so I can have a play around before I decide on the rig.
As an added bonus I've just realised that all those prices are in Euros so it hasn't even cost me that much.
Following some expert advice from strangers on the Internet I'm going with this to start with. Wil order first thing Tuesday when I get paid.
Last question...... will it just fit on to pretty much any rig I buy without some specific mount I need to buy?
Would you then not go for the Playseat Evolution?
Or something like this...

Then I'm looking at the rigs and will I need to get an adapter to fit the Fanatec? I don't want to have all the kit turn up and then have to wait a week for...
Ok, so budget this month was £500, so advice is get the CSL DD package and just use a desk for now.

I'm back to this again. Its a minefield.
I've been doing some research and I feel like I'd like to go DD and the Fanatec looks like a good deal, but it only seems available direct from Fanatec and not easily available.
As the garden office is at least 6-12 months off and I've never used a sim...
We never got round to Moving Out last night but I even managed to get my oldest daughter off Apex for an hour to play Overcooked 2.
At one point I got a little carried away and was shouting out 1 Sushi, 2 Sashimi to go and was not happy unless they shouted YES CHEF.
So next question is...
Cheeky Cheeky Xbox, Moving Out is no longer on game pass so I had a look in the store and it was £20.99. Downloaded the demo and had a quick play and thought that looks alright. Will wait to see if its on Game Pass ever. Last night was having another look and the deluxe edition is only £5.99...
