Did Elektron Stop Making These Things?

[quote=“patrick_j”]I just placed an order with Sweetwater last night. I got a call this morning, that even though the page says out of stock, they had one/some in-stock. Not sure if I just got lucky on timing, but I just got a shipment notification a few minutes ago.

Looks like they are slowly making their way back in stock.

Out of curiosity, which “Sales Engineer” have you been dealing with?

I ordered an Octatrack from Sweetwater a month ago and it still hasn’t shipped! Maybe I’ve been dealing with the wrong dude…[/quote]
Today, my “Sales Engineer” told me that they have some units, but they’re all shipping to people who placed pre-orders weeks or months ago. He said they’ll be getting more (but couldn’t say when), but he said almost every unit they get already pre-sold by the time they arrive. He wouldn’t tell me how many people are currently waiting in the queue. He concluded by saying that the best way to get one is to place a pre-order (duh!). In short, he wasn’t terribly helpful.
