    Wow, nice. I just ordered mine today from MALIBAL. I'm also in California (L.A. area), so we'll see how fast it gets shipped out here.

    Did you do ground shipping or air shipping?

    Wow, congratulations. I am more than a little jealous. I had to wait a full two weeks after ordering mine to have it delivered. I mostly blame the Fourth of July holiday weekend. Good to see another excited member of the Malibal crew :cool:

    Mine is coming this Monday; so it'll be 5 business days from my order (With e-check) to my door. Two of those days were waiting for the e-check to clear; once it cleared they shipped it out the same day, and now I'm waiting on UPS (ground shipping) which takes 3 business days to get to FL.

    I can't wait to get it; too bad UPS doesn't normally deliver on Saturdays.

    That is amazing! Though I thought it take 4 to 5 days and get the laptop checkout and everything before it ship, so it would be 6 days?

    In either case, anyone know how to switch your shipping address to those of UPS store or something like that, because my school package service doesn't open at all on the weekend.

    I'm Jealous! I ordered on July 8th and haven't gotten a shipment notice yet. The anticipation is killing me :p I am in Portland, or so hopefully it ships fast with the ground option.

    EDIT: This is why I chose Malibal and you should too: Within seconds of my post I got a PM notifying me that the 150 can take an extra day, and my order should ship Monday :) Awesome service!

    Yup. I called the number in the email. They answered within seconds and had me verify name, address, phone number, card number and the customer service number for my bank (on the back of the credit/debit card). They sent me an email two of three minutes later approving my purchase.

    I also got an email asking to verify my account on NBR with the purchase of the machine, so I could get the free shipping. That was even faster. Took them like 30 seconds. :D

    It's great working with a small company. You never get lost in a maze of bureaucracy.

    I got the NBR one. I just happened to get the verification e-mail at 5:54pm (EST) on Friday. They say call between 9am-6pm pacific time mon-fri. Unfortunately I only JUST NOW realized that it said pacific time so I could have called them... Now I have to wait until noon on monday! Curse my inability to comprehend timezones!!!!

    Not to worry, Altered - as long as you complete the verification before your order is ready to ship, it won't cause any delay. :)
