Cosmic Ears - new CIEM company with crazy low prices (including Hybrid designs!) - Page 73

I imagine the site will have a minor face lift once the cable situation is sorted, for example there's no option for the recessed sockets either!

 

In other non related, non surprising news swedish postal service really is crap.  That's the last time (not that I wanted it this way THIS time either!) that something's going standard delivery.

 

Cheers

It seems variable. I posted something last Wednesday by 1st class, insured and tracked delivery, and it was there this morning. I think that is fine.

I think smoke is not a standard offering atm, but please check with Phil. They are difficult to produce apparently, something to do with the black pigment that is used for them and the curing process. Last I heard, Phil viewed the smoke colour as a 'prototype' colour that he was still experimenting with. Check with him though and see if he is offering it as a custom option production colour now.

I only saw the photo on Facebook and didn't read the caption, but I really hope they can sell smoke shells. That would be very neat.

I quite agree, I like that colour too and it would look awesome with the carbon fibre faceplates they are testing (as per the BA4) cool.gif

As far as I understand it, sending it any other way to Sweden and you may as well have sent it by a one winged carrier pigeon, that had no sense of direction and navigates by the power of prayer.biggrin.gif

I sent my impressions with the cheapest option available, this includes tracking and costs €8,50.

 

They were sent 14 november and at 21 november the status changed to ear impression QA.

My iems were sent to the netherlands at 30 november. Which is impressivly fast!

Today the tracking info changed to arival in holland so I expect them to arive tomorrow. I don't really find this a very long waiting time for international shipments.

Mainland Europe tends to travel a litle quicker. Those of us in the UK have to get it across at least one sea before it can travel anywhere in Europe :-)

The word sea is used quite loosely there...

But alas, the USPS has all kinds of excuses for why things take forever, I shouldn't poke fun.

Two seas in fact, if you live in Ireland like I do. We have to get post to England first before it goes across the channel to mainland Europe wink.gif
