[Euro] Hondata Update

[AusS2000]

It’s only been two weeks since the closure of the group buy, I doubt much has changed for them, plus they did release manufacturing pictures of their headers a few days ago which look amazing id call that a update, in fact looking at the headers pictures makes me want to buy them as a present for my girlfriend. I knew what I committed to when I placed my order a 6 to 10 weeks wait, I saved money I’m not complaining Period.

I saved money I’m not complaining Period.

I can see you are not complaining, but you said on the page back you couldnt see what the problem is/was. People are skeptics (and rightfully so IMO) that the product release date will be met considering prior evidence and that it is fast approaching the release date. As I said on the previous page, getting the products here before the wharfs/industries shut down for Christmas is one heck of an ask.

The other point that could be made is that you arnt really saving money if the product doesnt show up or you are tied to the product because you paid a deposit etc.

Exactly

had the pre order said something along the lines of not paying now, pay when the product arrives (which is how it should be), i would have jumped in too..
however without any tangible parts and the past experience (the waiting)..i found it hard to go that last step to commit to the reflash..i was under impression that the pre order required me to pay cash up front.

plus as others have said, an instant cash injection (for hondatech) of reflashing, rather than waiting 6 weeks would have been an ideal for people like myself who already have most of the other parts already..

I agree.I was also under the impression that the pre order required me to pay cash up front.

Good idea.I think JTUNE needs to do something like this to take away the confusion that is around and to instill confidence in potential customers(like me.) in their products.

Also the Jtune stuff is being fitted up to my car tomorrow. There will be a show day in Melbourne probably next weekend to show the product when I have more details I will let you all know.

I think maybe JTUNE wanted us to think we needed to pay up front so they don't get people signing up then saying in 8 weeks, nah, don't want it now as I've got no cash and JTUNE being stuck with the parts.
However in saying that a sales contract could easily get around it and potentially have got many more early clients.

That's exactly what they could have done to avoid any unnecessary confusion and then having people bad mouth them, the same ones who has no clue about the trouble it takes to release a fully marketable, trustworthy product. In hindsight, J-Tune probably (?) did the right thing delaying the FINAL RELEASE OF INFORMATION, THE WEBSITE AND THEIR PRODUCTS for years. Seems like they spent a lot of effort to ensure production quality and also established a network of distribution dealers who could demonstrate the product all at once, etc.

Really hope to hear feedbacks from those who made a substantial saving by having faith and also will be the first batch of people to test this product !

[Omotesando]

Haha. Yep that's right exactly as I expected from AARONNG. Having double standards are we in editing out my reply post, when other 'provocative' and childish 'English Class' posts by Zsted aren't deleted or edited.

Not sure if I should be impressed or unimpressed by the Max Morley equivalent of Ozhonda.
