High Demand

Demand for the Ledger Nano-S has so shot up that the French manufacturer of this popular multi-cryptocurrency hardware wallet is clearly overwhelmed.




Ten weeks to ship

I placed an order for a Nano-S on 15-Jun-2017 (and fully paid for it too) only to discover that my order had been placed in a queue and the device would only be shipped after 26-Aug-2017.

Explanation

When I challenged the long waiting period, here is the explanation I received:

Due to a very high level of demand, we are currently on a just-in-time production. We ship everyday hundreds of new Ledger devices... In your case, your parcel will leave our warehouse on August 26 and will be delivered to your address 2-3 days later... If the estimated shipping date is finally too long for you, we can of course cancel your order and fully refund you.
Thank you for your patience and understanding,
Best regards,

--Vanessa Rabesandratana, Customer Success

Place your order here now before the time-to-ship gets even longer!

I ordered mine two weeks before you. I'm expecting it next week.

During the wait I had a chat with the co-founder of Ledger and he told me that orders were coming in so fast that they ran out of stock real soon. I wrote a post about it: https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@valderrama/ledger-increases-production-to-deliver-over-one-million-units-this-year

Our orders are 2 weeks apart but the shipping dates are more than a month apart. This goes to show that demand is much higher than the supply.

Yes indeed. That's why they had to order sooo much new parts to make over a million new ones this year alone.

@valderrama just checking... have you received your Ledger Nano-S yet?
