That was my point. I promise any vendor isn't trying to intentionally miss ship dates, upset their customers, etc.

You know what I said, when I thought about order these headers the other day? I said f*** it, I'm doing it anyways. Patience is a virtue and these are worth the wait.

Definitely couldn't be a supply issue, because we know everything in life is perfect and always happens according to plan.
I didn't ask for a exact time of delivery but they kept saying next week. Not maybe 3-4 or whatever. I didn't like the customer service as it took days to answer a simple question and they would always beat around the bush with the answer. It got old quick so I decided to waste my money elsewhere.

For me I had multiple headers on the list and I just went with the OFH originally so I could match it with the tablet. I wasn't interested in waiting months for something I can get in a week or two. There's not a lot of difference in headers other then sound and build quality in my opinion.

I just ordered my OFT+OFH combo a few days ago. I emailed them yesterday to ask what the wait time would be and they responded almost immediately. The very honestly said they they had just shipped out the last they had in stock and were expecting more in mid week with another shipment coming in the following week, so worst case scenario my stuff will ship in two weeks. I'm going to try to stay optimistic and hope everything works out like they said.

Ordered OFT/OFH combo late on 6/10. I actually called first to check on the availability. Took a few phone calls throughout the day to catch somebody(fair enough, busy I'm sure) but once I did I was able to take some of their time to ask a few questions.

Sounded like both the OFT and OFH are backordered right now, about 1 week and 2-3 weeks respectively. I went ahead and placed an order as I want the flexibility of the OFT and being patient for the headers makes it more of a treat. And, the local shops I called didn't have any uel headers in stock, so at least a week in either case.

Got shipping notification on 6/15, not sure if it was for the tablet, headers, or both. Whatever it is, it is going in ASAP.

It will be arriving today sometime so stay tuned!

I just got my shipping notification too. I ordered mine on June 4th, so it looks like they're getting caught up.
