imho nothing will happen.. everyone is on xmas holiday.. i think the orders will change to Handover to warehouse in the first January week an we will receive our packages between 10-15.01..
They also stated in the emails to DD+ preorders "Rest assured, we will cover the costs of this change and aim to ship your order before the end of the year"
Well hope for the best but prepare for the worst and there will be no hyped expectations.
things are getting delayed out of China with people rerouting product from container ships to air freight because of the trouble with shipping lanes, so hopefully fanatec manage to secure timely air freight.
mid January seems realistic but will all come down to when it’s handed over to warehouse. Maybe mainland Europe will see earlier but if your in the U.K. etc, well 3rd week of jan to 1st week of feb would be my prediction givin the lag in label created etc.
But here’s hoping for a miracle lol.
happy hols everyone, don’t let first world problems get you down
I think it will be changed to handover to warehouse this week and we will probably be in queue behind all the other orders. We would then wait the 10-15 business days to receive tracking. I don't know how we would jump ahead of all of the other outstanding orders.
I'm thinking Dustin has it right of the opinions we have so far. The only other thing is we assume that Fanatec has been honest about the availability of the product from manufacture. I'm also waiting with the same availability for the DD+ that I ordered on the 27th of November so I'm trying not to get too much into the ship date or handed over to warehouse though that would mark progress in the order.
I have a separate black friday order still pending from the 20th of November with no movement to the status of the order. The QR2 was originally a December 5 availability, then got pushed back tot he 15th. Once the 15th got there it was pushed back to the 29th, and then a few days later it was changed tot he 22nd. Well the 22nd past and there has yet to be any change to the order status or availability so I'm still waiting. I've seen very few of the Limited F1 wheels posted online so I'm thinking maybe that's another reason why I'm not getting my order even though it showed in stock with no future availability date. I ordered mines early on the 20th so I believe I got in early enough to get one of the limited number of those that are available.
I ordered some stuff on Black Friday and first availability date was on 15dec then 11dec and I got a email that it’s prepared for shipping on 12dec and I got my stuff on 15dec.
In the US, the DD+ now shows "sold out". Before it showed an availability of December 27th on the product page up to yesterday when I checked it last. My order info still shows the availability of December 27, 2023 though in my account.
Not sure what to make of it for US customers. I'm hoping they didn't oversell as I got my order a little late on the 27th of November which showed a December 27 date for availability.
I also ordered on 19/10 in Australia and then it had 12/12 availability. I emailed them when it went to 27/12 and was told that mine was in the first batch and would get mine near the 12th.
Then on the 19th I got the email about airfreight and sending before the end of the year
Now it’s changed to 27/12 and I’m not expecting to see it until late Jan in hope that I’ll not be disappointed again.
You ordered in November or October as a pre-order I assume? I ordered mine last week cause I saw it was Pre-order availability for the 27th as well. Now today its technically the 27th in Europe so its sold out instantly I guess cause they hit their inventory limit
I ordered last week in US as well with an order no. 18804**. It said availability for 27th before it's sold out. Shouldn't have much of an difference regarding shipping date in a general sense but this is Fanatec so...
If anyone gets an update tomorrow especially for those who were early on the pre-orders can you share your shipment info? I asked that in the black friday thread as well for those and it will helps those of us further back in line see if there is any movement on the deliveries. Thank you all in advance for your consideration. Main things would be country you reside in as European and US orders are sent out from different centers.
I just need the wheelbase and I am ready to start, but if everything goes normally we should get a email tommorow morning from Fanatec that it is preparing for shipping.
Will we get a mail tommorow morning that it will be prepared for shipping ? I really hope that I wake up tomorrow in the morning and that I see a mail from fanatec!

Santa told me it will be here at the end of this week. I don't need to worry.
For the people that do not believe in him, well end of January it is.
I'll be happy to see a warehouse status this week, then the usual 7-10 business days wait.
Plus the inventory, don't expect to get it until Mid-January though.
Is this a good sign guys ?…
No worries guys it’s back to 27 December
It’s back to sold out..
probably means they have no more ins tock and there getting send out tomorrow but hey we will see tomorrow is d-day of course :)
I don’t think so but I hope so!
I ordered some stuff on Black Friday and first availability date was on 15dec then 11dec and I got a email that it’s prepared for shipping on 12dec and I got my stuff on 15dec.

i ordered in October and it’s listed the same in my account, not updated yet.
hoping for that miracle lol

Sobald ich eine Information zum erhalt der Rechnung habe, werde ich diese hier Posten.
Ich habe am 21 Oktober aus Deutschland Vorbestellt. Auch hier wird auf der Homepage die DD+ als Ausverkauft angegeben. Seid heute.
Ich Drücke uns ALLEN die Daumen, dass wir diese Woche noch eine Tolle Base in den Händen halten können.
Haha lol my first wheelbase to 😂
I just need the wheelbase and I am ready to start, but if everything goes normally we should get a email tommorow morning from Fanatec that it is preparing for shipping.
Fingers crossed here!
I ordered it on the 19th October. As soon as DD+ pre orders appeared on the website.
Will we get a mail tommorow morning that it will be prepared for shipping ? I really hope that I wake up tomorrow in the morning and that I see a mail from fanatec!
I hope so hopefully this week
