I agree with the frustrations voiced in this thread. I was part of the second run of the 4000K lights that stretched to a year and I am asking myself why I jumped into another special run expecting Henry to deliver on a given time when the previous run went ridiculously long and his MO is deliver far past predicted dates. I had planned to participate in the 3000K group buy after this, but now I don't know.
I am glad that Henry is anal retentive about the quality of his products, but if he is getting bad product back from vendors so often that his production times are affected this often, maybe it's time he looks for different vendors. It probably isn't that simple, but as a customer and hearing of repeated extended delays due to manufacturing issues repeating over the course of years I start to have concerns about his choice of vendors.
I think my biggest concern in this is hearing about Henry's attitude. When Kgp queried Henry about this run, Henry's response made Kgp feel that Henry was annoyed, wasn't interested in the group buy in the first place, and felt no sense of urgency. If that was what Henry meant to convey, that is unacceptable IMO.
To end on a positive note, I will say this - Hogo, I do not in any way consider this a failing of yours. I said it in the 4000K run and I still say it now. I appreciate you getting medieval on Henry's arse.
