I recently sent a Topkit to a customer in Singapore via USPS and it finally ended up in Saudi Arabia. Never was delivered and presumed kept by the Saudi's. It's a wonder that anything arrives safely!! I'm hoping for the best with my early bird delivery.

I wouldn't be too critical there of USPS. Basically anything out of country gets handed off to whatever the next country's international mail service is as soon as it's out of the US. Works the same way the other way around; something sent out of China by "ePacket" will be China (or in my case, HK) postal service until it's out of the country (like hitting San Fran) at which point the local postal service, USPS, takes over and delivers to the final destination. Sucks you lost a package though. It's why I avoid shipping out of country if at all possible.

Just picked up my Delta's from the post office. First impressions are that everything from packaging to the accessories are absolutely top class
 
The premium look and feel of the packaging and product is miles ahead of Flare's R2A and R2PRO that I received last week.
 
I love the R2's sound though, so that made up for the lack of a premium packaging and few accessories
 
It's to early of course to say anything conclusive about the sound of these lovely little things. Need to listen much, much more.
 
But my first quick impression is that these sound absolutely amazing. Especially after finding the perfect tips, made me smile from ear to ear.  
 
 Oh BTW, if anyone could tell me which filter is which?, I have only tried them with the default one which sounds great to me.

@Atmosphere I'm really looking forward to more comparison to the R2A's when you get some time with them.

At early stage, silver = fun; champagne = vivid; gun metal = smooth, but from the update on KS one of filter is pinkish red on photo - not sure that's for techne or delta or they both share the same color. I could have missed out the color change post or update.
 
btw, it seems no unpacking photos from backers to date.

Silver (fun) = V shaped enhanced bass , Gunmetal (smooth) = balanced ish , Purple (vivid) = Treble

Definitely doing that after some more intense listening

Mine has been on its way to Chicago for three days now. Must have taken it on a paddle boat.

@Gaghiel Nice, thank you!
 
I'm not sure why there's no unboxing pictures yet. I don't think I can post pics yet. I can just say that they're gorgeous
