Hello everyone, My name is PJ. I am currently a sr in college, majoring in computer engineering and biomedical engineering. I always wanted to get into robotics but as you all know money for college students is pretty much scarce. For the past 6 months I have been searching the net for a way to implement what I have been learning in school to the real world, and what a better way to do that than robotics. I am a fairly decent programmer with C, C#, C++ and Java, mostly Java. I order my EZ-B starter kit on the 31st of march, just curious on exactly how long it will take to ship. I know you guys are a small start up, not trying to rush thing. I'm like a kid at a candy store, anxious to start building stuffs. Already got my EZ-b softwares install, load it with codes, robosapien pre-wire......all i'm missing is the EZ-B. ]
Two weeks before I placed my order for the complete ez-b kits with some minor adds-on. I did send a courtesy e-mail using the contact me form on the website asking where the kits still available. Got no reply, after monitoring the Forums and seeing DJ hands on approach with the Forums. I finally convince myself that this is something legit ( No Offense). I stumble across EZ-B on youtube, which is why I was so skeptical. I know you guys are a start up and I know the communication personnel have a lot to dealt it, But we the public just want to be updated. Log in in a daily basis since the 31st of March and seeing my order still being process, well...............but now knowing its from China I feel a little bit better, gain a little more patience.

Good Morning P.J. !
Your RoboSapien is AWESOME !
With a Project That Big, you can certainly justify more than One EZ-B @ $69 from any of the Local EZ-Robot Distributors.
http://www.aprohobbies.com/ezrobot-c-59.html has delivered my Re-Orders in Three(3) Days or Less.
Begin using it NOW, and by the time your Complete Kit Arrives From China, you will know how to use it ?
Would YOU be willing to help solve some of Washington H.S. JAVA Compile Errors ?

Patience is definitely not my strongest virtue, Purchase an Arduino board from Amazon with overnight shipping, which I already receive. it should keep me busy until my EZ-Robot complete kits arrive. My Email is [email protected], I will be more than happy to help debug the coding errors.
send it as a word doc, notepad, or wordpad....if it is simply copy and paste into the email it will be flag as as virus or spam and automatically be deleted.
Hey Michael,
Just wanting to let you know that I did respond to your email you sent out on the first. As DJ mentioned we were having some big time issues with our mail servers so it must not have made it through. I will re-send the email for you
It basically states exactly what DJ just mentioned - that we don't have the shipping costs from EMS service yet. As soon as I get them and update our back end with all the pricing I will let you know what it came to!
Sorry for the delays! BTW - if you don't receive the email from me today can you please post here again so that I know it didin't go through. We are hoping that our email challenges were fixed but this will be another good test
Hey Alan, can you please give me an estimate on how long it will take for the item to be shipped? order it on the 31ft of March?
PJ - I just sent you an email
Thank you DougPope for the kind words, we certainly appreciate local orders and ship out as quickly as possible. Thank you for supporting us and EZ-Robot products.
Hello, I have experiencing a similar problem with no responses. I sent three messages using the contact form, but have received no answer (first message on Monday. April 8th; next on the 9th and then again today, the 10th) Checked my spam filter, etc. On vacation again?
I was hoping to get the order in by this weekend to evaluate for use in a kid-friendly MIT autonomous robotics seminar; are lead times usually more than one business week? I have had some personal experience with unexpected Chinese holidays and delays, so I can relate, but I'd still like an update if possible.
thanks, Ben
