Jadeite Posted May 5, 2021 Author Report Posted May 5, 2021 Well looks like the ship carrying mine will be making it's way to port tomorrow (if there is room). Been watching the tracking for a few days now.. hopefully it doesn't take too long to make it to port, be inspected and makes it's way to the warehouse. 1
Jadeite Posted May 19, 2021 Author Report Posted May 19, 2021 The wait is almost over! I got my three emails last night and I have an ETA of the 26th of this month for arrival at the local depot. HOPEFULLY I'll have mine by next Friday if there are no delays and they can deliver promptly. 4
Jadeite Posted May 28, 2021 Author Report Posted May 28, 2021 Well my KK is at the local depot.. I am not just waiting for the call for delivery. I reached out this morning and was told another person had to call me to arrange for delivery and that call may come today but delivery won't be until Monday at the earliest.

Jadeite Posted May 31, 2021 Author Report Posted May 31, 2021 Okay so I took the initiative and called again this morning since I had not heard anything.. and my delivery is now scheduled for tomorrow between 11AM-2PM! Almost there! 4

Yeah this time they direct transferred me to the depot and scheduled it on the spot. Friday they said I had to wait for a call.. guess it all depends on who you talk to! 2
Jadeite Posted June 1, 2021 Author Report Posted June 1, 2021 My 42" KK has arrived!! It came right in the smack middle of the time window and everything went very smoothly. Seeing how HUGE the crate is in person was like.. it is even bigger than I expected.. hah. Driver was great and the back of the truck didn't bow at all so no nerves. Getting it up the driveway slant was a bit of a chore but the KK is now safely in my garage until I am able to uncrate it. We are having some backyard work done in the next few days so I don't want to move it back there until then. It'll also give me some time to plan on how I am getting it back there (going to empty it out of everything and we should be good to go). Here are some pictures of the arrival! 7
Jadeite Posted June 1, 2021 Author Report Posted June 1, 2021 Oh and thank you to @DennisLinkletter for all his help in this process. I am sure more photos are to come (in Square as requested ) and I'm sure we'll be talking soon once I get it uncrated and moved. I can't wait to see it unwrapped! 1
Jadeite Posted June 1, 2021 Author Report Posted June 1, 2021 and thank you to @Buzilo for helping push me towards a 42" instead of a 32".. haha 2

It'll mostly just be getting it only the plywood to start (I have a plan for that) and then up a very small ramp at the end to get to the patio. I know I shouldn't be too nervous.. but you know how it is.. haha 1

GrillnBrew Posted June 2, 2021 Report Posted June 2, 2021 Nice, can't wait to see it! Still no word on mine, I may break protocol and call the shipping company anyway, hopefully it's made it to Atlanta by now! 1
