Just order the Xtreamer online but was informed the shipment will only be processed by Oct 1. Hopefully this time will not be a long wait.

It seems the sale is doing well where the order number has nearly hit 8000!

Yeah.... I read a lot of interesting delivery stories. Hopefully Xtreamer has sorted out the issue and put things in right perspective.

On the other hands, when I made the online payment through credit card even thought was set the payment currency in US dollar, however they still charged me in Euro. Luckily the currency difference is not much.

Quite funny...... after 24hours has passed but the shipping information shown on DHL website still remain empty.

Just called DHL customer service and their officer will verify with Hong Kong office tomorrow.

Wondering this will be another case of DHL guys knock the door and yet not updated the tracking status in the system. huh.gif

Yes, DHL online tracking gone cuckoo recently. Status shown item still at warehouse but DHL guy could be right in front of your door step! Try checking from dhl malaysia instead of the US one if you can find the tracking link.

Thanks for your sharing. I've checked with DHL Malaysia but they couldn't provide much details too. rclxub.gif

In case DHL guy turn up at door step by tomorrow or the day after that, I'll be definitely delighted as the most importance point is to get the item as early as possible smile.gif

After waited for 2 weeks and the Xtreamer was finally arrived safely........ but it was a very dramatic experience. sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif

My parcel was withheld by custom right after it arrived at the airport. DHL personal contacted me and hilited this item is subjected to taxes. vmad.gif

From this forum, I came to know that no one was taxed and relayed the same message to DHL. However the next day, DHL came back stated unless I could provide the custom code else it will be taxed.

After checking with a few forumers but unfortunately none of them still kept those documentation. DHL provided 2 choices either pay the taxes or meet custom officer to appeal the case. I chose the latter and DHL told me to wait their call for arrangement to meet custom officer.

This morning made another call to DHL. To my surprise rather DHL told me meeting arrangement with custom officer instead I was told my parcel has been released and they're preparing for same day delivery. rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif

Even though I'm still in doubt of at what basic it has been released.... Right now I'm setting up my unit and enjoying the new media player. rclxms.gif

When Xtreamer eTRAYz is available, hopefully by then the delivery will be a pleasant one.

Indeed! 59€ for existing users of Xtreamer media player is a good buy for the specs it comes with as a 2 bay NAS. However at 99€ for non-Xtreamer users, there are lots of other alternatives available in the market
*
I guess most of the existing Xtreamer owners are excited this great 59€ offer. But the order only can be made on Nov 1st which is another 3 weeks to go.

Great to hear your shipment was ok.  rclxms.gif
So, what was the custom code? It will be good to know.

Unfortunately my shipment is stuck at somewhere.
It has been stuck at Shipment information received for nearly a month already.
Mails to xstreamer and calls to DHL so far was not successful.
This was the only time I had problems with online ordering.  rclxub.gif

Do hope you will be getting your item soon enough. In actual fact I did close follow up with Xtreamer via mails as well as calling up DHL now and then.

I'm now keeping custom documentation for future reference. But there are so many type of numbers exist and couldn't figure out which one is the custom code.

I also noticed there is a clause stated that if the item total value is less than RM$500, then it will be exempted of tax. For this case, Xtreamer declaration value is below $500 and I guess that's why none of the people has not been taxed. nod.gif

I just done a fan mod on the xtreamer. The original fan is faulty with grinding sound even on low fan mode. Lazy to send back for RMA. Cost to do the mod is RM 20 for 3.5" HDD cooler. Fan noise is very low and I can't hear it from 3 feet onwards. Fan set to high in the settings.

Hi Pierreye,

It's a nice job! I'm thinking to mod the fan as well.

Do you need to screw down the 3.5" HDD cooler to the case or it could be attached by just using double-sided tape?
