Bottlehead Kit Shipping Status

In an effort to give our customers as much information as possible about the particular product they are interested in we have devised this shipping status chart. We attempt to update this status report for our products often, and we usually pack a production run of a given kit once each month. Thus the average time from order to shipment is around 4 weeks plus or minus a couple weeks. We understand the desire by our customers who may be stuck at home to receive a kit ASAP during the coronavirus pandemic. We very much appreciate your support and we are working extra hard to get kits shipped as quickly as possible. Very occasionally you can get lucky and the wait will be shorter if we are packing a certain kit and we end up with extra inventory. We announce that surplus on the Bottlehead Forum the rare times it happens. But most often for the past 25 years we have been playing catch-up with orders. So it is usually the most expeditious to get your order in the queue soon rather than waiting to see if we will have a kit in stock. We tend to ship smaller items like replacement parts in batches, once or twice a week.
