Egg Timer still operating?

DeepOvertone · Aug 16, 2018

I sent them a purchase request email this morning and haven’t gotten a response. Is that typical of them? Their website says something about getting a new website so I imagine they are still around. This would be my first experience with them so I’m not familiar with how they operate. Do they normally take a bit to answer? Thanks.

Like most of our rocketry vendors, it’s not necessarily their day job. Give Cris some time to respond and you won’t be disappointed.

DeepOvertone · Aug 16, 2018

Ok, I’m not upset. I’m used to some of the vendors taking longer. I just wanted to make sure that was the norm for them. Otherwise I might have thought my email never made it to them. I’ll give him a few days.

“They” are one person, still active (I saw a post from him yesterday I believe). He probably just hasn’t seen it yet. He’s “cerving” on TRF. You could send him a PM here. He seems like a very good guy to me.

I'll state I know Cris personally and he's a standup guy. Have no worries ever ordering from him. He'll also help you troubleshoot if you run into any problems.

+1, great product, great person. I have never had any issues purchasing from Cris or his service.

+1. Excellent products and excellent service. Top notch customer service as well.

I love his altimeters. A challenge to build, but once you get it, you go it.

djs · Aug 17, 2018

Always had great support from him, especially answering my stupid technical questions. I'm sure you'll get something very shortly.

cwbullet · Aug 17, 2018

It looks like he is moving to a new site. The email I sent him bounced. I suspect it will be corrected in a few days.

cerving · Aug 17, 2018

Not moving to the new site quite yet... the old site and email should be working just fine. I had a few emails come in yesterday and replied to them early this morning, including some PayPal invoices. If you didn't get the mail, check your PayPal account... sometimes the invoices get put into Spam folders.

As you inferred, Chuck, many of us derive a great sense of satisfaction from meeting that challenge

+1 for the challenge and satisfaction. It also brings back fond memories of building Heathkit radios with my dad when I was a kid.

Me too, but it should be noted it is not easy for a newbie to soldering

When will the details about the Labor Day sale be posted?

Need more Egg

cerving · Aug 30, 2018

I'm locked out of posting to the Vendor section (again... 4th time in two years), I'll try to get it unlocked. Failing that, I'll post it in The Watering Hole.
