Being the impatient kind, I thought I’d create this sub; please tell me if it’s redundant.
So, you received your kickstarter order? Tell us here!
When did you receive it? What country are you in? Was the box in good shape? What about the packaging, did it suffer? Did you test the product? How did it go? First impressions. Etc.
Comments welcome. This is my first time creating a subject or thread anywhere, so a little indulgence will be welcome.
I am in California and have not received my kit yet. I would love to hear from people that have received their kit already as well and would love to know when to expect kits to be shipped to the US - Thanks - Paolo
Packaging is not exactly “apple-like premium”, but parcel is not mangled, each module is in antistatic bag and pins on the bottom are protected with foam, so it looks like it gets the job done:
Today I’ve finally assembled the rack chassis, and found out that screws require 2mm hex keys/allen wrenches. You might want to get such a tool in advance if you do not have it yet.
Shipping “began” 3 weeks ago. The facility in China promised sorting would be done more than 2 weeks ago and tracking numbers would be “provided soon”. And yet, nothing…
Sneaky bastards, I just got an Email that a package is on route to me. When I check the tracking information it’s already arrived in the Netherlands. So, I will receive it very soon!

Shipment information received
I asked because I recieved tracking info from a (real) company I’ve never heard of but have confirmed is real… and the tracking is a real number in my region. I assume it’s either the tracking for the MicroRack or someone trying to hack me got lucky with the region.
Says out for delivery, so I’ll update as soon as it’s delivered, either to my door or in their system.
I received a tracking number minutes ago (I’m in Canada).
It’s unlikely it’s a hacking strategy in my case, being that the email came from microrack.org.
FYI it’s a uniuni tracking number.
I just got a shipping notification from a Chinese last-mile shipping company out of Los Angeles (I’m near San Francisco). I don’t have tracking from microrack.org itself, just the email. As of now it says “Shipping order created.”
I believe they have warehouses in the US, right? If it’s really coming from LA I expect it’ll show up here tomorrow or Monday. Gonna go frantically hit refresh on the tracking page!
Okay, just confirming… mine’s arrived at my door in sunny(?) Southwest Florida.
I’ll be unboxing it here in a bit and making some beppy-boops with it. Expect an absolutely garbage Instagram short to come out since I have to re-setup my camera for desktop recording.
Yeah I got my tracking number today from microrack and the shipping label was created in Torrance CA where it is being shipped… so I guess I’ll be getting it very shortly!!!
