Queue position #54, and I ordered three of 'em.
Oh gotcha... ah nuts... that really sucks lol. I'm 12 behind you mate so it could be worse
Only 12? must be nice
Im #81 in craigs queue.
Remember that not all the queue positions are filled, there are about 20 which were either never paid or were cancelled.
That said, there were *three* orders for three units too!
Well fingers crossed the queue will be almost clear soon.
BTW anyone who having cosmetic damage?
I heard from two Japanese user who bought 1GHz unit from Craig and ED.
From Craig.
1. Woody box is heavily damaged.
2. Pandora has so many cosmetic damaged.
3. AC adapter come with wrong plug(not suitable for JP/US plug) can't use it
From ED.
1. Woody box is ok.
2. Pandora has so many cosmetic damaged made by AC plug.
They said really so sad about this situation especially who upgrade from first batch.
Most of problem is seems there is no Air Packing Materials inside.
I strongly recommended to use Bubble wrap to protect Pandora from damage.
Mine(#99) is not shipped yet but I really don't want to be like that.
So please use Bubble wrap inside.
Woody box is great I also want it for this special unit but velvet is not enough as a cushion.

If the box has been damaged I'd be suprised if it had anything to do with us, the wooden box is placed in a cardboard box and surrounded by packaging, it's visible in several of the unboxing videos, plus the wooden box is obviously far more solid than the old cardboard one, we tried dropping the wooden box with the Pandora in it to make sure it would survive at lease one big impact alone and it did.
If the Pandora is also heavily damaged then I can only imagine the whole package suffered some sort of catastrophic impact in transit, but we have not been contacted about this, could you give more details?

A thin layer of bubble/air-wrap between the pandora and wooden case could perhaps be an option when shipping over larger distances like Japan.
Could also be that someone along the shipping line just felt like playing football with the boxes, but yeah, that should at least help a little bit, even though it may not look as nice when you open it up for your first time.
