I just ordered the special A314 Social Bonding Mix. I hope they actually send it to me. Are any other athiests resorting to prayer?
I doubt that they will, as they’re not even released yet. If they do I’d be amazed.
What the hell am I supposed to do without A314 and Instant Shine? I ran out and I’ve already been literally scraping it out of the bottle and shit like I’m fiending for crack rocks.
I said in the customer note section to cancel the transaction if they don’t have it, or to replace it with normal A314 if they do.
Unfortunately that’s sold out too LOL.
Look AD is a very respectable and astute company. We have to give them the time they need to get the ball rolling. Us ranting and complaining about products not being available will NOT make them do things any faster. Our concerns are their concerns as well so we shouldn’t have to voice our needs because their doing the best they can to accommodate the volume of people that order their fine products.
Patience is a virtue and I wish more people could see that.
You my friend, have a problem.
I was exaggerating, but, I put hot water in them and let it sit and used the contents. Close enough, lol.
I was just trying to elevate the urgency of getting this stuff back, I really like it; but you’re right I was just being silly.
DO WANT! Haha. I hope they don’t only release a small amount and then never make anymore ![]()
Man, I so want the extra -none edition. To give A314 that extra kick, I wonder if it’ll be like the LS version of A314 in terms of aggressiveness thanks to the extra -none? I hope so.

i´m courious about this special A314 Bonding Edition .. what happened to it ?
Pago
Haha! I KNEW IT!
Thr3shold used to crawl our URL to find new products as I was writing them, ALL THE TIME. He used to PM me as I was writing them. It always perplexed and intrigued me, his method of psychic product uncovering, but then he gave up the magic trick and told me ^ he did that.
And last week, when Mick brought up that “Somehow people have ordered A314 special edition and I don’t know how?” I immediately thought, “Thr3shold is back!” But when I looked, he wasn’t… so… I was sitting there in a stupor wondering who crawled the product url.
But now I know! Oom!
As for the A314 Special Editions,
No, they are not ready for a proper release.
I will set aside some time soon, to write some copy for them and fill y’all in on the design intent, and what we’re looking for in tests, but for right now I don’t have enough free moments to do that for you (and all my staff writer experiments haven’t panned out :/). So, you guys wouldn’t mind being cool and hanging out and enjoying the other stuff while I get those special edition goods ready for you, would ya?
Oh, here’s the thing that’s high on my/our priority list right this moment. If you want to REALLY make an impact around here, and feel that what you say will actually be acted upon, you’ll go answer this thread:
(Your demonstration of power is sexy, guys. squeamy, girly quiver)
Ok so they’re not available yet but could we get a teaser on what’s different about these? I can figure out extra none edition, and I imagine Social Bonding Edition likely has IO or IH already built in, but what’s Ultra Fine and I don’t know anything about P90 so I’m not sure how this would effect A314
Aw man! I keep promising myself I will NOT reply to this post so I don’t generate too much interest prematurely.
So, instead, I am going to completely pull a Steve Jobs and swear myself to secrecy until the product launch.
(Seriously. If ever a question comes up about how to do things, the first thing that pops into my head is WWSJD? “What would Steve Jobs Do?”)
Apple management obsessed with secrecy:

Even though not always available to boss me around and tell me what to do, MHarris runs this company a LOT like Steve Jobs, so when I hear about Apple’s Executeam crying under pressure, I’m like, “I. totally. know. what. they’re. going. through.” or, even, “Finally! someone I can relate to!”)
The whole Androtics team seem to be complete Apple fanatics… ![]()
There was a loooong post by MHarris about these new A314 versions, but I can’t seem to find it anymore.
This video.
Every time.
(and seriously, I’ve seen this ad many hundreds of hundreds of times. It’s like when you get a song on repeat just cuz you have to listen to it ad infinitum. Seriously, every time,)
Every time I watch this video, I start to cry.
(Haha, so this means from now on, every time I visit this post, I will cry.)
chokes up
Yeah, they’ve got really great PR people… ![]()
just visited post. just cried
haha. THANKS bb.
Did you know the person who voiced this ad is Richard Dreyfuss?
And did you see Richard Branson and Bucky Fuller in there? Yeah.
I’ve never gotten a tattoo in my life, nor do I think I’ll ever, but I might make ONE exception, for the script of this ad. And it would be tattooed backwards on my forehead, so I could see it every day in the mirror as I brushed my teeth.
/ ok. thread hijack over. pls return to your regularly scheduled discussion. /
<3
Oh hush, you tease. Thanks again for everything you do for Androtics and again, it’s great to have you back.
Oom.
PS: Jasmine - by the way, have you ever thought of allowing pre-ordering, so as to guage demand (and thereby better handle stock since you’d more accurately sell what people want)?
Imagine that pre-ordering actually took a small amount from the chosen payment method (say a simple 10% so that people didn’t just click “I want” on everything in the store). You could hold developing products until demand hit a certain threshold. At the moment the forums only give a skewed flavour of demand, since they’re far ‘noiser’ an indicator of something as simple as real propensity to buy. For example, you know that PS (MX331-335?) has demand, but not exactly how much, whether it’s just interest or a real desire to spend money, or even which particular variant might sell the best (my personal bet is on MX333)..
As long as Androtics could be transparent on lead times, I think it’d be a great thing for both Androtics and customers… better stock control, better cash-flow management, less of the same questions about “if/when is X coming back” in the forums, and happier customers.
