UPDATE: Just got a call from the freight company and the Completes are arriving Thursday. USPS supplies are on order and packages will start shipping Monday. We expect to be able to get all of these shipped within a week depending on how long it takes to get the extra USPS supplies.
For those who have not paid for shipping, we will open shipping payments on Friday. Please be ready to pay then. See this thread for info - http://www.overclock.net/t/1243366/gentle-typhoon-2150-completes-arriving-soon-pay-for-shipping-now/0_50
As some of you may be aware there is a current delay in the manufacturing of the fans. The company producing the fans, Nidec, currently has two damaged factories in Thailand going through assessment from the devastating floods from the heavy rains. Once Nidec gives an official update you will be the first to know. Currently there is no ETA as we have no answer for that yet. If you want to read a news article on the damaged plants, click here.
We appreciate your patience with the fan ordering process and are doing as much as we can to bring you updates and will continue to monitor the situation as it progresses.
This Deal is Official run by Overclock.net. Please post up any questions or PM me.
Information about the buy: Who is Handling the Money?
Initial Cost of importing the fans is handled by Overclock.net. We will collect the money and have the order placed in our name.
Who will ship the fans to the buyers?
Due to the size of this group buy, we are having FTW PC handle the Shipping on this.
They are trusted members of the Overclock.net community and former staff members with a dedication to both you and I. Forum representatives are both available to talk to once they have the fans and we will have information up on shipping quotes soon.
There are two options available: Barebones Model - Voltage and Ground Wire, 3 Pin connector attached, $9 per fan. Turn around time, ~ 10 weeks ORDERING CLOSED ON THIS MODEL - This batch has been ordered
Complete Model - Voltage, Tach (for reporting RPM Values) and Ground Wire, 3 pin connector attached, $13 per fan. Turn around time ~ 14 Weeks ORDERING CLOSED ON THIS MODEL
This Group Buy will be open through May and we shall close it around the start of June, tally the orders, and then send out PM's asking for folks to send their payments in.
For those of you who may not know what the GT 2150 is, it is the model up from the Gentle Typhoon AP-15.

Don't worry guys, this group buy won't sink like the last one. If you have the money and even a small urge for this model of fan, don't hesitate!
So, not to clutter this thread up but if I wanted too could I put a potentiometer in the circuit with the 2 wire version in order to control speed? I am handy with soldering iron, and close to broke atm but don't want to pass this deal up.
