@Solijohn- Hey FYI I got my printer today. getting ready to unbox now. USPS didn't have info on the tracking number you provided. Not sure who's end that was on but I figured I'd let you know. My work sometimes has issues with USPS and tracking numbers so it may just be a phone call. Just figured I'd let you know in case you do have an issue in house.

I'll look at it again later and tomorrow and give you a quick update. Not trying to be a thread jacker.

USPS often fails to scan the boxes. We force them to scan them at the facility, but we can't hold their hands for the rest of the trip.

Date Ordered: 02/04/2014

Shipped: 02/21/2014  It has been almost a week and the UPS tracking still has not updated.  I emailed support asking why that could be.  They said it has happened in the past where a label was created and UPS has not picked it up yet.  He said that he would find out what was going on with the printer.  That was around 2pm yesterday and I have not heard anything since.  Has anyone else been in this situation?  I just want to be sure it is in fact going to come and I'm not just waiting for something that has been lost for almost a week now.  Is it too late to cancel my order and get a full refund?  I really don't want to do that, but if the thing isn't going to show up anyway I don't see why I shouldn't.  Could it be it was mistakenly marked as shipped when it is really just "OK to Ship" and this wait should be expected?


Somebody made a label and didn't ship it. We rectified the problem as soon as UPS confirmed this with us.

I ended up talking to someone over the phone on Friday and they said they would ship one on Monday... now its Tuesday and I call up and the person has no idea whats going on and they have to call me back... If anything is even being done I'm being kept in the dark about it. This whole situation is starting to get aggravating.  The lack of communication and action by the customer service is terrible... I understand a long wait but it has been over a month since I first placed my order and it still has not shipped... I'm being dicked around like a fool.  Feels like I just got scammed out of $800.


So it isn't quite so simple as your CC billing and shipping info being different. We have an anti-fraud algorithm that checks orders, and if yours is deemed within a certain risk percentile, it gets detained, and we ask for further identification.

As long as you reply promptly with your proof of ID, it will have absolutely zero effect of your ship time. As the support person said, we ship them by the order date.

The process should work:
CS informs you of fraud check -> You respond with ID -> Process approved -> ships at normal time.

The best thing you can do to keep this speedy is to reply promptly to the requests of the CSR.

The only situation where your order would be delayed is if you waited a long time to give proof of ID, or refused to give it. We use this proof of ID policy because it is Paypal's preferred method, and helps us keep things happy with the Paypal people, and keeps us safe from fraud. If you've signed up for a paypal account in the last few years you might have done this directly for paypal.

We do have multiple customer service people, and thousands of customers. If you ever have a complaint about the performance of any given CSR, you can contact [email protected]. He is our customer service manager, and he can respond to problems with the CS personnel. (I myself haven't worked in customer service for quite some time.)

Some of our CS personnel might be less than articulate at times, but I assure you they know what's going on with your printer. If you're status still reads as a security review, then they need your I.D information plain and simple. If you've given it, and it hasn't been changed, you are probably in line for the review.

This process typically takes 24-48 hours.

If your printer is marked as "OK to ship" then the printer is well on its way to being shipped. The CSR cannot speed things up at that point. You are simply experiencing the same lead times everyone else is.

The scheduling of the printer's manufacture is done independently of the security process.

Should be shipping with the next 14 days. That's a worst case scenario. We plan on being mostly caught up on shipping within the next 7 days.

Credit card billed on 2/20/14, order created 2/21/14 status shows "Security Review" dunno what that means, but I hope it ships soon.

I had this same thing happen to me. My delivery address and billing address were different so I had to email them with a PDF of a utility bill or something like that. Its a fraud prevention thing. I spoke with Solidoodle both on the phone and through email and was assured both times that your spot in line is based on your order date, not when it gets marked "OK TO SHIP". I was also told that until the order get marked " OK to ship" the money out of your account, but they haven't accepted payment from PayPal yet. Like I said, I had the same problem and everything went fine for me and my order is " in production".
Hope this helps


I got my CC statement today and they definitely charged it on 2/21.  If there's a problem they haven't communicated it to me yet, a week and a half after ordering.. I'm sure they have lots of orders to fulfill, so I'm not too worried, but I do hope to see some activity on this soon.

Just to elaborate on the CC process, so you know we aren't lying to you, here's the process:

You buy a solidoodle -> Your money goes to paypal -> fraud detection holds the payment with paypal -> pending fraud approval we accept your money.

So, yes your card has been charged. We charge everyone's cards the moment they buy the printer. However, until we certify that the order is not fraudulent the money is held in paypal limbo where it can be easily returned to you.

Its crazy that they still have these problems, even though they've been around almost 3 years now.

Thomas, I'm sure you didn't get scammed. Unfortunately, being this disorganized and slow to respond is just par for the course for the company, it seems. There are dozens of people with stories like yours in this thread alone.

The current wait time for support issues is 24 hours.

The worst thing here is that support confused the customer by giving a to-the-day estimate for shipping the printer. Clearly, they didn't take the steps to ensure that the printer would ship by this date.

If you guys ever see a problem with support, feel free to contact me, or frank ([email protected]) to clear things up.

Thomas:
I looked up your tracking number, and it looks like your printer was shipped Tuesday, and that it's out for delivery today.

A week or so. Often, customs will add a few days.

It should go out within the next 14 days at worst, if not sooner. Maximum lead time we are experiencing is about 4 weeks, but most orders are going out far faster than that.

No worries, you have not been lost.

Hello!  Seeing the above, wondering if there is any chance my SD4 will ship this week - Order 22270.  I know website shows one week lead time, but the above post for Isgraphics, has me concerned.  Any information you could provide, would be appreciated.

More than likely, yes it will ship this week. 14 days was a worst case scenario there.

In production means that it is on the production line. Should be going out in the next week or so. No more than that.
