I appreciate it.
This is my last mail on the subject. Basically Im totally confused by Grants current approach. BUT... Thats not saying its a bad approach or Grant is a bad guy, etc... I simply assumed that the full production announcement meant things are going back to the old ways (prices listed on website, ordering on the site,etc..) I was sad to see the 300 series go so you can imagine my excitement caused by its reappearance. I think theres also a lot to be said about Doc saying that Grant is making this up as he goes along. Maybe thats why I got confused.
Bottom Line is.... Grant now has enough parts to build 200 pieces of the 300 series.
If thats how it was said in the beginning I wouldve got the point. Grant, I think you should take more cues from all of the people that adore your designs. A few posts back you unceremoniously dropped the Envelooper. Meanwhile a lot of us here where thinking it was going to be one of the next modules! And a lot of us (including me) were more than willing to buy at least one.
So I just want to say I have no ill will toward anyone and especially none toward Grant and all of his efforts. He recently talked about all of the prototypes that dont make it out of his basement. Im sure Id buy them if hed let me! :)
Regards,
John

That said, i comprehend John's disappointment. His goodwill toward
Wiard is not in dispute in my mind. Though my contact with him is
vicarious, i know by indirect means that he is a generous and erudite
fellow and a careful and skilled engineer himself. He was an early
customer of Wiard long before it had acquired it's 'eBay cachet'.
From my perspective, John's complaints are not only his prerogative as
a customer in a free market but they have real merit in the context of
the current market for synth modules.
