Bad Dragon Waiting Syndrome :P

[LittleZeroThatCould]

I don't know if I ever posted this before on these forums, but maybe, it might be time for BD to open a second factory, perhaps on the east side of the country. There's already the facility Arizona, so maybe it's time to put down some more roots in a place like West Virginia, or Kentucky. It could help trim down a handful of wait times, especially when an order needs to be driven or flown across the country, or worse, exported over the Atlantic ocean. Having a factory on the east side of the country could cut down international shipping wait times by almost a week as it'd remove the need to ship items from the west end to the east which takes a few days by truck, and the better portion of a day by plane where it'll just sit for an additional day or two before being loaded onto an international plane. But most importantly, regardless of a location, it'd create more jobs, and cut down wait times for customers who- like me- would be more incentivized to purchase from BD than its competitors. For the last couple of years, BD has basically been the gold standards for non-human sex toys. They need to step up their game if they want to keep it that way. You have to spend money to make money.

This is a good point, I just wonder if they have an issue finding people who want to work in a dildo factory and those who have the experience? I know when I clicked on careers they said they wanted people experienced in manufacturing, or if they are tough as far as what they expect from their employees, since when mistakes get made they can cost 100-200 dollars a piece.

Tbh if they opened one here in Florida where I live, I'd be happy to help any way I could because they really seem to need it. I wonder if there have been issues with molds degrading over the years and they only find out when there is an issue and etc etc etc or if they just have themselves stretched too think trying to market at conventions and drops and such.

[LittleZeroThatCould]

Whatever the issue is, I wish they'd be more transparent. If they'd just say that they need more employees, I bet people would be more willing to apply. Ten bucks says that some people are interested in applying, but seeing them at all these conventions, they probably think that there's no room for new staff, so they just don't apply. So if it's an employee shortage, then they're just shooting themselves in the foot.

Also, 11 weeks, 1 day since my order was placed, and it's still processing. I filed a ticket 21 days ago, and got a response 15 days ago that reads as follows.
"(...) Your Sleipnir is actually being worked on right now as I type this message! It should be up for inspection soon, and if all goes well, your order should be ready to ship within the next few business days. (...)"
15 days after it was 'being worked on' and was 'up for inspection soon', it's still listed as Processing: Making Your Fantasy Real.

EDIT
It FINALLY shipped!
Final Wait Time: 11 weeks, 1 day / 78 days

Fair, I just feel like? I mean being able to find workers and being able to find good workers is another separate issue.


also added bonus ; My pretty mystic boy is in El Paso, Texas, headed for Florida! UGH! I'm so hype but even when he gets here I won't be able to use him because my period just started

[Kemnebi]

Been waiting for Orochi for over a month now. Sent a ticket in and got a reply that was basically "be patient". They're not wrong, but waiting is hard.

[LittleZeroThatCould]

I ended up waiting exactly 12 weeks for mine to arrive.

I don’t have a toy waiting


.......I have two...

One is a small Demogorgon in 8 and the other is Elliot in small and in 5 and the a color called “sky spirit”. Now the latter scares me a bit because I have a small demogorgon that is the same shaft diameter as a small Elliot, and I felt that one is a tad bit skinny and didn’t do too much, but seeing how this upcoming Elliot that I got also comes with a CUMTUBE, I can forgive the diameter size.

Elliot is coming either this Monday or this Tuesday and (Jason the) Demogorgon is coming *checks watch* tomorrow! I got then both from the clearance and they’re both flops.

It’s my very first tube!!!!!

[little-mythgital]

Well was hoping to wait a while for the order with Bruce along with the Sky Spirit Votan and the Rex plush.
Just received the email that it got sent out, hopefully it will take it's time getting here, bad enough with FedEx getting all passive aggressive on me because I didn't pay a fee I didn't get in the mail. £88 in fees.
About 2 week wait there? Maybe mini Votan is not that popular?
Should be okay paying the fee because things keep happening but I'm more worried about space, where am I going to hide a shark?

I ordered my XL Apollo on May 23rd, so it's coming up on 11 weeks for me. Still processing?
I waited until about three weeks before my guest/roommate was leaving so it wouldn't arrive too early, based on the "4-5 weeks" in the FAQ. Too bad I didn't check this thread in March!

Anyone else waiting for an XL Apollo? Just curious if I'm in a long queue.

Update: Order went directly from processing to shipped on August 9th, the 78th day.
Update: Package was picked up by FedEx the following Monday on August 12th, arriving the 15th. 84 days total.

[Dracon Ra]

XL Votan shipped after 5 weeks.

[Fallout Warning]

I am hoping for a very short wait, as any of us do. I ordered a small slep (my first blunt head toy) in blue omen on the 13th. *so only a week* Last time i ordered it only took around 3 weeks. But that was a long while ago. Fingers crossed

[Noll]

I got two toys, one being a toy I've been wanting for almost a year, a large Echo.
The other one, my most expensive custom thus far a medium Sleipnir.
I'm stocked!

[huntress]

It's been 10 days since I bought something from the clearance section and the status says it hasn't been shipped yet. I just want my dicks for Christmas is all!

[Kelbeck]

Waiting on 5 guys currently, and let me tell ya, the wait is brutal. Been waiting on 2 of them since Thanksgiving lol. But I know it'll be worth it in the end

[Ghost_the_Crow]

Having the Holidays and Black Friday in mind I think I won’t receive my Order before the end of January/beginning of February.

[Snowblind]

Just a couple of days since my largest BD order yet; A handful of Rex stickers, a Janine patch, and a Large Firm Natural Unflared Chance

Already getting antsy!

Have they shipped it until this day or are you still waiting?
Just asking because they also told me one week ago that they want to ship it and nothing happened until now ...

Translated:
Haben sie es schon versendet, oder wartest du noch?
Ich frage, weil sie mir vor einer woche gesagt haben, dass sie es verschicken und bis jetzt ist nichts passiert ...

2 Month waiting on my latest BD toy.

The toys I've bought at EE on Black Friday did ship, but it seems, USPS is sending it on a f*cking ship.
It left Honolulu 5 days ago, an airplane should have reached Germany by now.
