The Wand Company TOS Tricorder is coming!

Last play by play of the night….

Note: my updates may seem utterly stupid……but I suspect there’s something to learn from ones experience in case others go down this same rigamaroll…especially for those that might have the first run at ordering from overseas. There’s lessons to be learned by international shipping, tariffs (for those who get them), the handoff processes by different carriers,

…………….Et cetera, Et cetera, Et cetera (Yule Brynner)



Play….

This is THE COOLEST THING EVER! So worth the wait.

Sadly I’m getting home at 9:30 and can’t play with it too much tonight.

I’ve changed my mind on the illuminated moire, it’s amazing!

It’s going to take hours to go through everything.

I want to thank Chris Barnardo from The Wand Company for giving this to me as a gift!

Its from the first 250!

That’s a beauty! I’m one of the unlucky who missed the first wave that weren’t subjected the absurdly high tariffs. With the way things are going, it’s going to be an even longer wait before the rest of us get one.
 
Thanks. Any idea when they will be relisted?
Someone said they managed to slip one in their "saved for later" basket, and the notice said it would be available May 31st. Also there was a post, apparently authored by Chris but without attribution, saying they were having trouble getting the stock loaded into Amazon UK--they'd tried with 1,000 units but were only successful with 500. That's all the news I've seen.
 
There's already been some here.

And soon the nit picking and complaints about it's incorrect or wrong design features will be all over the place .

I scrambled to be the first to register nitpicks about the Tricorder. I mean, I feverishly searched for nitpicks before I even dived into the cool features of the Tricorder:

It was one of my life’s proudest moments.

My packaged got returned to sender. What do I do?

Wows….

Sorry to read that. At what point in the shipping (tracking) process did that happen? Using the words “return(d) to sender” …usually means the recipient rejected the delivery. And I’m sure that’s not the case with you…that’s why I’m asking at what point was it turned back?

It had two stops in the UK, yesterday. Today: A carrier delay has occurred. Delivery may be delayed then Returning to sender. No idea what happened live chat was not clear on why this happened.

So, it looks like your package never left the UK? Very odd. When did you order it?
 
Two hypothetical scenarios……Don’t know if I’ll be surprised by a packing slip envelope stuck to the side of the shipping box containing papers to pay tariffs from Customs (sneaky bastards) by mailing the papers back with a form of payment……or be notified by USPS that the package is waiting at the post office and to bring my first born in payment of tariffs to be collected.

Let me get angry for some of you….as only Captain Kirk can express it.



In 2020 TWC announced the Tricorder…here we are in 2025… a five year mission.

There are just somethings we have no control over…..and of course, timing is everything.
