Placed 4 orders over that weekend. Checked the disclaimer on each order. They have all arrived, it then again I ordered fairly generic items. A couple of charging handles, lpks, a colt upper and a couple of buffer tube/spring/buffer combos.
FWIW, at those prices I would have been more than willing to wait the full 8 weeks...

I'll be pleasantly surprised if they ship this month but with the holidays here I don't expect to get anything until sometime into Jan

IIRC it was on their website between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Geissele is in the business of making money. While their website crashes sucked, I'm certain there was a 'method to the madness' on the number of product they sold on Black Friday and the fact that ALL buyers agreed to get cheap stuff, they may have to wait 8-weeks (ie after Christmas). That allowed Geissele to sell more product and make more money by getting stuff sold and shipped for Christmas.
Again, if you bought Black Friday Geissele stuff, YOU agreed to up to an 8 week delivery timeline. That date is 23 Jan 2020. Yeah some people got their stuff already, maybe Bill hates you, maybe your momma dropped you on your head when you were a baby and you have trouble with logic & reason, IDK - but life isn't fair, especially when you wait all year to buy stuff on sale.
And hey, when Jan 24th hits and your stuff isn't here, I'm all for complaining then. But until then, ppl should STFU, drink eggnog, and $hit.

Same here. I was really surprised it came as fast as it did for me and it was stuff I didn't need on any timeline. Some Charging handles and optic mounts I know I'll want later in the year.

Kind of why I put this in my post: "Hmmm.....still though, I'll give them the 8 weeks I agreed to."

Yeah... not directing this at anyone by name, but there are some folks on this site that reading comprehension doesn't exactly seem to be the strongest stat on their Character Sheets.Kind of why I put this in my post: "Hmmm.....still though, I'll give them the 8 weeks I agreed to."

People have posted about emailing Geissele a week ago to ask for an ETA. Like, come on man, leave them the **** alone so they can spend their time getting our shit out. Please, anybody reading this, don't bug them for an ETA a few weeks into a stated 8 week wait. No, it's not "just a simple email" when they get hundreds of them from 'you guys'

Bet they don't read the Terms of Service before ticking "I Accept" on their software licenses either... I'm tempted to code some niche app and bury a line in the legalese gobbledygook about "Licensee agrees to relinquish claim over their mortal soul to Licensor as part of this contract," see how many people notice and then have an auto response of "You DO realize you just sold your soul to [company] for this license, right? Contract is signed, legal and binding in perpetuity, no refunds..."

Sure sure, but, those TOS are pages and pages of small print legalize...and I'm referring to people openly aware of the 8 weeks they clicked but pestering Geissele anyway lol
Just sayin, guys...don't be that guy

Other notable examples just recently include hijacking a gear loads thread to dunk on a dude for being overweight, trying to hijack a discussion about picking a milspec URG to push various other personal-preferences and dunk on project goals, doing same with a guy who wants to try to build a bolt-action AR without considering reasons... Good God, y'all, some people here act more and more like Barfcom every day.
