Remember that there may have been communication via pm between the coop manager and the users that we don't see here. Someone could be out of town, in hospital, ect. Usually after a reasonable amount of time the coop manager will offer the unpaid units to someone else on a first come first serve basis. Or they could just order fewer kits.

Tailan,

No sweat.  Appreciate you sending the money.

I hope everyone realizes that I post things like the percent complete and the like for information and to be a subtle reminder that payments are due.  I am not a pressure guy, but will let everyone in the COOP know where we stand so every member knows were we are in the process.  So far, this COOP has been running very smoothly (okay, now I have jinxed it!) I cannot begin to thank everyone in the COOP for making it so smooth!

All members who have yet to pay (11 as of this writing).  Please try to get your payments in this week.  I have sent out second-notice PMs.  If you are having difficulties or otherwise need to delay payment, please let me know ASAP.

Parts are beginning to arrive at the Gustafson household (much to the chagrin on Mrs. G)

Much thanks!

If you have not paid for the COOP you are in danger of losing your order

I will be sending out a final notice for payment today.  Please respond QUICKLY to this PM. 

Thank you!

All coops are well run.  Some stand out for their packaging (you might even call them obsessive in their attention to detail by wrapping each set of parts as separate units).

Kurt, your communication is exceptional!

Just received word that the Enclosures are shipping.

All parts (that I have) are sorted.

Waiting on PCBs which I expect some time in a week or two.
