How long does shipping take to get a Betson?
« on: June 21, 2005, 05:43:50 pm »
Hello,
I ordered the Betson 27" early last week and I still haven't received a shipping confirmation. I was hoping to have it in by the weekend.
How long has it taken you guys to get in the monitor?
Thanks

I've ordered 13 and 19" monitors from them.  Usually it takes about a week (to Georgia).

I just spoke to them and it still hasn't shipped, something about they just got them in and they need to get FDA approved before shipping.

FDA? Sure it's not the FCC instead?

I thought it was strange too, but that is what she told me. It must be FCC.

That's a decent amount.  I'm about 1.5 hours from the nearest distributer.. it will be cheaper if I can just pick one up from their location..

Let me know how you like the monitor!

I missed my chance last december to pick one up at Pittsburgh Betson when they had some stock.  When I went to get one in mid January they were all gone and I had to wait 1.5 months before stock came in again.  The only way I wasnt going to get charged shipping was for it to be in their stock, if they would have had one transferred it would have cost me.
I was in no hurry, I have it now installed, my arcadeVGA card working fine with no problems.  Its awesome to play mame on it!  If I was picky I would have some comments like others in the forums have posted, but I'm completely happy.
I need to now finish making the top part of my cab now that I have the monitor and know how its going to fit for mounting.
Good luck, be patient, but keep on top of them.

I finally got confirmation the monitor shipped yesterday. Wow, why does this take so long. I could see about 3 days at the most to send out a monitor.
Even on Kevin's site I believe he said they were very speedy.
Can't wait though.

Got mine in less than one week, however I never got anything sent to me to say it was shipped, it just turned up on the doorstep. I like the way UPS likes to leave a $500 monitor on the doorstep!

Mine is being shipped by freight. They told me they no longer use UPS because of damage. I suppose it will take a couple extra days now on truck.
