Hey everyone!Just a heads up,FT Soundwave and tapes are up for preorder on tfsource.com as of 530am EST on Wednesday...good luck!

 

IDK if anyone noticed but Bombusbee has both this and Outrider now listed as $149.99 + Shipping or $139.99 + shipping if you join their whatsapp group. Finally some semi-sane prices???

Edit: The estimated shipping fee is $25 for both.

 

Anyone know the WhatsApp group name?

 

That's pretty good pricing.

 

They sent a QRcode but my phone just died and can't use it. lol

Edit: I should say the estimated $25 shipping only showed up on Hoist and not Outrider yet but i'm taking a YUGE leap and assuming Outrider will be the same or close.

 

Ah I see, I just got it in the outrider e-mail.

 

Do we just tell bombusbee when we go to pay that we are in the group? I recall once they sent me an invoice where they didn't knock off money they said they would and I had to chase them up. Or is it just automatically discounted? probably a dumb question I'm asking  

 

Yeah, I have no idea how that's supposed to work.

Edit:

Just noticed there's a dropdown menu now with an option to select the What's app pre-order price on the main page. Don't know of you can still get it now after having pre-ordered

 

That would suck big time if that's the case seeing as I think we all got the email because we had preordered it  

 

No, I see. The pre-order deposit is the same for everyone and then you'll select the Group discount from the dropdown when you make full payment because you can't pre-order with the discount. So it should be easy and fine.

 

I'm glad to see these prices! Even with shipping it's more what I expected. 200+ is ridiculous and will suck for some people if some stores actually charge that.

 

So, is it free shipping, or not?

 

Western stores will charge 200 or more I think.

 

It's not free, it's gonna be around $25 and it'll be more exact when they have the box measurements/weight in hand

 

$25. If you only go by the top drop-down to choose shipping you'll get burned because it always says free shipping. So always check that bottom description and check what the estimated shipping fee is. If it doesn't have a price and says "unknown" just go in realizing they will likely charge some amount for shipping.

 

So, 175.00 is the new accepted standard price for a Carbot, and 275.00-300.00 for Soundwave? Wow!

 

$250 for Soundwave and $120 for 3 tapes.

 

IF you can get Them from a store that isn't charging for shipping.
If Bombusbee is charging 25 for shipping on top of the 149 for Hoist/Trailbreaker. Soundwave will get a similar treatment, thats where I got the 275-300 from

 

250 is the price at US retailers. it will be cheaper at Bombusbee, so it may end up around 250 including the shipping.

 

Bombusbee usually ends up being cheaper than most places even with shipping. Usually. But I agree with @Hoffman on what they may end up doing with the price. If everything hold true to their usual form they'll be a little bit cheaper even after shipping.
