Our "bone headed" shipping strategy was to sort batches into similar contents, the idea here is speed. If you have a 100 packages all with 1 fixed stock and 2 spare mags it is much faster to get those 100 packed at a time than dealing with 100 all different packages. Doing it oldest to newest order would add 1-2 weeks to the overall packing time.

Seems logical enough to me.
 
The images I'm seeing of these delivered rifles look even better than the original/promo shots. If mine looks like those when they show, I'll be really happy.

Great work bringing these in, TI. Finding sources of 'new' surplus is going to get harder and harder, so this is a great score.
 
It still sucks being one of the first to order the rifle and being told you will be one of the last to get it! A little more than a extra day or two like one guy (with gun in hand already) tried telling us. I have no doubt I will get my rifle and will be very happy when it gets here but having to wait another several weeks blows big time.
 
As mentioned before we decided the preorder was the best way to ensure everyone that wanted a rifle would be given an opportunity. We included long term preorder bonuses worth over 10% item value and offered full money back at any time with no questions asked. The other option was smaller batches, panic buying, selling out in 5 mins with website crashes, EE scalping, etc.

Not sure what we could have done differently, maybe hire someone full time to monitor and reply to threads on type 81s? Add another 16 months the on top of the delivery window in case what we were promised by poly wasn't right?

Skip the preorder bullsh*t altogether if you order another batch and don't mention a word about it until you physically have the rifles in your warehouse then put them up for sale on your website.

I assume you have a shipment of spare mags and spare parts all ready ordered and halfway here from China already? If not, that might be a priority thing for you guys to get right on to ASAP. :cool:

Cool with me, but if you have shipped those folding stocks first with the same method that you mentioned, you should have less headache here lol.
 
People need to stfu and stop whining. What a joke. Are you guys adults or little kids? The rifles are coming to your doorsteps within the week or weeks. You've waited for years so what's the rush.

Stop whining.

Stop whining.

because no one wants this saga to end
 
This is what a right leaning echo chamber is I guess ? It’s pretty well the same cycle 8-12 pages. You guys discuss. Then 5 pages in it gets trolled and the anger and stupidity surfaces. Then tinfoil, then accusations and outlandish theories. Then TI has to respond because it’s gone off the rails. Gives an update, then discussions start again on why the thread should close or stay open, then the antagonist post for canned reaction that they somehow get off on. Then some hope in pics then anger the cycle resets.
 
Most of the bashing is coming from known trolls, don't sweat it TI, you guys have been doing great all along, I've had to email you guys a couple times about combining more mags with my original order before bfiles bought them all, and your customer service has been outstanding...my bet is the worst offenders in this thread have not even ordered one, or worse yet not even old enough to acquire firearms by the lack of grammatical aptitude...I ordered day one, and I'm still patiently waiting...keep up the good work, and don't let cgn bring you down...
