FC-9 release?

post #1 of 17
8/17/11 at 11:44am
Thread Starter 
On your facebook page it says:

"Oh what's this? It's a preview to Lamptron's upcoming product! 50w per channel with smooth throttle control and color changeable LEDs, sounds good!
MSRP Price: $49.99 USD
Release date: August 10th"

How come I can't find it anywhere besides here? http://www.xoxide.com/lamptron-fc9-fancontroller.html

Even there it says "notify when product becomes available". Does it take that long to get into distribution centers?

It is already released, however the firts shipments are already sold out.
I am also waiting for an EU shop to have it again.

Wow, why is it so expensive @ Xoxide? It says the regular price is $30 over MSRP.

The actual selling price is only 19 over MSRP. I don't pay much attention to what some sites like to put as the "regular price", I often don't even notice it anymore. Its just a marketing gimmick.

I honestly don't know what the reseller price is for these units at the moment, but you must consider that for resellers to get stuff shipped via air from China can add between 25-35% to their final cost for the goods, depending on the shipping method and the reseller's location, as well as the order amount. For example, if you're ordering a ton of stuff and you're operating in Los Angeles, you'll get a much better final price than if you're ordering just a thousand dollars worth of stuff and you're on the east coast. Also, some MFGs set an MSRP than gives resellers only a 20% profit margin selling at that price...which is pretty low. Also, resellers lose between 2-3% in payment processing fees. Smaller businesses that don't do NewEgg volume can't really survive with that kind of margin. Just something to consider.

Hey Guys!

More units are being shipped as we speak, we estimate the stores to restock them around early September. In addition, more stores will sell them.

As for the MSRP, it is $49.99 as stated on our website. Use that for reference when comparing prices.

Is there still only one EU reseller?

Thanks Andy. Good to hear that more stores are going to carry them. I was at first planning on getting the FC-6 but the 9 just looks so awesome (and at pretty much the same price).

Can't wait until they get in stock

Should be more then one EU retailer if nothing goes wrong with shipments. We are doing our best to get the EU shipments arrive around the same time.
