Any estimate for the poor 4 souls that were out of luck?

fyb2000,

The update for the unlucky 4 is that I they will ship on Monday at the soonest (I fly back home this coming Sunday from my trip).  That will -- most likely mean you will be seeing them show up next week (wednesday) or so.  I am sorry about the delay (I am writing this from my hotel room in the good old St. Louis -- I have a great view of Busch stadium -- too bad it isn't baseball season yet.)  I hope you can continue to be patient with me.

Kurt

Hi Kurt,

I received my kits last week.

Just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you running the coop. Never ran one but can tell it has to be time consuming.

Thank you!

Hi Kurt,
I am one of the four & hey I'm just glad I was able to get one. This coop sold so fast, which I think is great cause it means the community is growing, so no worries. Thank you very much for doing the coop that alone appears to be a great deal of work. All you coop managers need to always be commended for your hard work.

Again Thanks   <res.

Joe

Update 016 -- 04/02/2012

Major Activity:

 - All payments from original members received
 - All payments from add-on members received
 - All parts are in and accounted for
 - All parts sorted
 - All PCBs received
 - All enclosures received
 - All shipping boxes received
 - All 61 shipped

Awaiting:
    Nothing - woohoo!

Notes:
I got back in town late last night and finished the last four orders which went into the mail today. I issued refunds via paypal.  We received some discounts due to volume as well as shipping costs being less via paypal.

If at any time you need to contact me for any reason, please PM me.  I will attempt to get back to you as soon as I am able!

Thanks,

Kurt

Kurt,

Great job running this coop.  Received my refund today.

I think you've set a new standard and example that other coop managers can learn from.

Regards,

Leif

All refunds are issued.  You all should have received (or are receiving for you unlucky 4) your orders and have your refunds via paypal.

The gross accounting was the following:

Total Received $7,202.14
Total Spent      $6,724.75 (this includes the $191.70 for overcharge on the EX/RX boards @ $1.35 each)
Total for Refund $ 477.39

I ended up refunding $191.70 total for the people ordering EX/RX boards (142 boards @ $1.35) and $477.39 to the entire COOP membership (for overages in Paypal fees, shipping, etc -- key thing to remember is that when we asked for you to pay, we only had an estimate of what it all was gonna cost.  This represents the actuals against the estimate and the delta between the two is the refund to you all.)

If anyone really wants the gory details of the COOP, I will gladly provide my accounting to them.  Now it is time to relax! LOL

Kurt
