Current Lead times?

Wed Jul 11, 2012 7:30 pm

Did you receive a RaspberryPI this week? last week? three weeks ago?

Who did you get it from?

How long were you waiting for it since you placed your order?

I know I'll be waiting for a long time since I just order it (June 29th) but I would like to have an estimate on the date

Where did you order your Pi from? RS/Allied?
I ordered my Raspberry Pi from Newark (Farnell/Element14) on July 9 and I got the expected ship date of August 16, 2012 (pretty lucky, hoping it ships that day). I heard that if you order from RS/Allied, the current time before shipping is 10-12 weeks.

I ordered mine from Element 14 2 days ago (the 9th) and they told me August 16th is the expected ship date (hopefully it is). From what I heard, RS is shipping 10-12 weeks.

My Raspberry Pi was delivered this week from RS. (I am in the UK)

It took seven weeks rather than the six weeks quoted at the time. Current Lead time being quoted by RS is eleven weeks.

Ordered from RS on the 31th May, they took payment on the 1st of June. They quoted Standard Delivery (Despatch expected within 6 week(s)). It arrived today 12th of July, which was exactly 6 weeks as quoted in my conformation email. When you ordered the email you got should have an expected delivery time, going on my experience it is spot on.
There a post about the lead times here http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewt ... =23&t=8786
