gazwire Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Hi Dave, I placed my order for a 14 car set a couple of weeks ago. I still haven't received any demands for the deposit yet, but I really would like to go to the scanning. Have I missed the boat (no transport pun intended)?

delticfan Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Gutted Peter Purves isn’t going I always wanted a blue peter badge but was never good enough at anything to deserve one....lol. I bet he still has a few in his pocket for little gits like I was turned good. Spent my schooldays chasing Deltics and look where it got me!! 50 years of age and some fanatastic memories and still playing with trains... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MICHAELWORRALL Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 It seems people think i've disappeared i am still involved with this even tho folk are saying its just Dave Jones.I don't get involved with the arguments regarding anything on here but doing the promotion for this model.Dave Jones is doing all the design work but if it's not right i will still have a say.Ive spoke to loads of apt customers who are happy with the way myself and Dave have gone about this project. I will be attending the scanning party even tho some folk have said i won't be and look forward to it. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

srihaggis Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Think I've missed Something but what is the deposit amount for a 7 coach set? If I go online it says no deposit needed at this time. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonC Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Think I've missed Something but what is the deposit amount for a 7 coach set? If I go online it says no deposit needed at this time.

Andy Mac Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Think I've missed Something but what is the deposit amount for a 7 coach set? If I go online it says no deposit needed at this time. Thanks It’s divided into 4 equal payments (certainly for me) and first payment of a quarter of the totals already taken.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
7APT7 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Hi All Looking forward to meeting all those that will be attending, and putting a face to your name! It will be a great day out for all attending. For those that can't make it, then perhaps one day we will cross each others paths in the future. I'm interested to see who on the RMWeb will be attending...! If you are attending Press the 'i' Informative / Useful (so we all know who will be attending) in advance, only if you want to take part in this! it may be easier to remember your RMWeb User ID when we meet up together and put a face behind the User ID...!?! If you choose not to be known then no worries hey, but still be great to meet you all. Regards Jamie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordonotron Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 I've put an order in and I'm sitting on the first instalment - whats the cut off to get this paid and still get the existing pricing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Scottish-Exile Posted May 30, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 30, 2018 APT Press release Dear Modeller, As we get closer to the APT scanning party on the 2nd June at Crewe Heritage Centre, we can now tie down the 'shut down' date of Crowdfunding orders. This will be May 30th at 11.59pm After this date and time it will still be possible to order all APT versions but each set will then cost a higher RRP. The prices listed below only affect new non existing crowdfunded orders from the 31st May onwards. Existing crowdfunders will still be able to top up their order with new orders at the original Crowdfunders price until tooling starts, and this date will be advised at a later date. Set 001 will rise from £699.95 to £ 933.27 Set 002 will rise from £649.95 to £ 866.60 Set 003 will rise from £749.95 to £ 999.93 Set 004 will rise from £749.95 to £ 999.93 Set 006 will rise from £895.95 to £1,194.60 Set 007 will rise from £995.95 to £1,327.94 The raised price will be in effect until tooling is started. Once tooling has started the order book will close permanently. Please note this is a DJM crowdfunding project and DJM will be invoicing, designing, and finally supplying the finished model and is therefore totally responsible for your investment. Also: Please Note: Any 'pure' crowdfunding venture is an investment with no guarantee of return, and your invested capital (deposit payments) are at risk. Please consider carefully whether you wish to partake in this venture before ordering. I've put an order in and I'm sitting on the first instalment - whats the cut off to get this paid and still get the existing pricing? As per Daves post, you have until 23.59pm tonight After that, price goes up 33.33% Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
srihaggis Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Thanks for the info, on the occasion I'll have to give this one a miss as I won't be able to get the 25% in time for the deadline. Here's hoping a few will be made for general sale... or do I raid my Swiss bank account for eBay prices haha Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJM Dave Posted May 30, 2018 Author Share Posted May 30, 2018 Hi Everyone, Due to the change from paypal to Lloyds bank click safe online banking for all orders and payments, although orders for new NEW crowdfunding customers finishes tonight, payments wont be asked for until the Lloyds Click safe system is up and running. So far it's taken 2 weeks and could, in all honesty, take more. so as long as you order by tonight, your APT is safe at that price, and you are, like existing crowdfunders entitled to buy and further sets they may want to, before i announce a tooling date, at that same original crowdfunded price. Any orders after tonight go up to the previously announced amount. However, once i announce the click safe system is up and running, you wil only have 2 weeks to pay the first installment for the APT's you may have ordered. Reminders will be sent out though, so please dont worry, and i'll also be posting here and on my web site. Hope this helps? 10% chance of rain on saturday chaps, so it could be quite a fair day in store. Cheers Dave 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's hoping a few will be made for general sale... or do I raid my Swiss bank account for eBay prices haha hi mate, order before the deadline, and basically you'll have at least a couple fo weeks to get the deposit together, as i'm changing banking payment companies and this is dragging on. cheers Dave 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Jamie Hi Jamie, feel free to take pics of the event, but would add that it might be 'good form', if your getting anyone but my ugly mug in a photo as a relatively close up pic, to just ask if they mind. and 3d printing? not sure weve promised that to be fair. as an aside, Kit (Mr APT) sends his apologies as he wont ge able to make tomorrow after suffering a hear attack early this week, and is in hospital recovering. I've sent him my best wishes, and he's upset he wont be there tomorrow. cheers Dave 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
