No comunication shipping slow

For CC2652 ZigBee coordinator or OpenThread router

Shipping in Europe month, China is faster. No comunication, no support. Product good, but dont hope for support.

Very long delivery time

For CC2652 ZigBee coordinator or OpenThread router

33 days to receive the material sent from Germany to Sweden even though they confirmed that they had stock. So if you're in a hurry, think about it.
In favor of them, say that there has been good communication during this long period.

I received the device but its not working.

For CC2652 ZigBee coordinator or OpenThread router

I received the device and it was in a good packing.
I unpacked it and plugged it into my Raspberry Pi and afterwards in my MacBook but it will not detect.
The led is only green but goes not in the documented behavior.

I tried to contact via mail but no answer...

Not working

For CC2652 ZigBee coordinator or OpenThread router

Unable to make it work with Zigee2mqtt. CC2531 works flawlessly but this one sometimes starts z2m but it’s more miss than hit. Same configuration and next container start it refuses.
Given the lack of support, it is not for the faint hearted.

Good product, poor shipping and communication

For CC2652 ZigBee coordinator or OpenThread router

Received product after nearly 2 months wait. Product works well as expected so far supporting 20+ devices on my network. Seller needs to work on shipping and customer communication otherwise this is a great product!

Nothing received and no communication from seller.

For CC2652 ZigBee coordinator or OpenThread router

Buy it if you want to give charity to the seller. If you want the ZigBee coordinator, you have to look for other places.
After 35 days of waiting and trying to get information from the seller, I asked Tindie for a full refund which was quickly accepted.
Sorry for such a bad review, but I really have no reason to say anything good about this seller. In other hand Tindie support was excellent. Thank you Tindie.

The stick is ok, the shipping was fishy.

For CC2652 ZigBee coordinator or OpenThread router

According to tindie the package was sent on the 11th of September. It arrived today and according to DHL it was sent yesterday on the 22nd of September after I complained on PayPal.

UPD: received after contacting Tindie support

For CC2652 ZigBee coordinator or OpenThread router

I have placed the order on 18 Aug. On 30 Aug I received the message that the items were shipped. Today is 15 Sep and I still did not receive anything to Slovenia! Now the seller does not reply to emails via Tindie or via any other email you can find on his webpages....

Looks like the whole thing was a fraud...

UPD. 5 mins after I have posted the review the seller has replied promising "to check the status of the shipment in the evening". However, 5 evenings have passed already, and no reply... No reply to my email reminders as well.

UPD: Had to contact tindie support to request the refund. After quite a few emails, they contacted the seller and it appeared that the shipment indeed was sent, but not as promised, but after I posted negative review....

Anyhow, now I received the parcel. The product is as expected, so regarding the quality nothing to complain. However, the difficulties with communications and obvious lying from the side of the seller are quite disappointing.

But still, thanks for Haribo bears in the parcel ;)

Item not received

For CC2652 ZigBee coordinator or OpenThread router

Was caught up in the delay issues - did eventually receive and is working fine. Range doesn't appear to be noticeably different from a CC2531 with antenna

Markus | Aug. 30, 2020

Huge delay

For CC2652 ZigBee coordinator or OpenThread router

Update 09.09.:
Tested the stick and it works fine. Good!
------------------
Update 04.09.:
The stick finally arrived yesterday, Sep. 3rd.
Will update once more when I tested it.
------------------
I ordered the stick on 01.08.
I got a shipment notification on 12.08.
Until today there was nothing in my inbox. As I live in germany, international shipment cannot hold as an excuse.
The seller does not reply to my direct message.
I will wait a couple more days and then ask Paypal for refund.
Very sad :-(

Shipping delay

For CC2652 ZigBee coordinator or OpenThread router

I have ordered two items on the 26th July, they shipped on the 29th July, and almost a month later, still no sign of them (I am within Europe - so no long distance shipping). I have been trying to reach the seller for the last two days through the only available means through tindie, got no response yet.
Starting to get anxious about this thing... hope it gets sorted out soon. Will update the review as soon as this gets sorted.

UPDATE: Seller reached out informing me sometimes it just takes 4+ weeks to deliver the package.
