I just checked the website again and it looks like they updated things and changed prices a bit (though the sale price now matches the original pricing). I'm really curious to hear the details of the group buy. Pricing, shipping, weights of various coolers, timing, etc.

I just had a message from them on Facebook. They had 'inventory issues' with the Twisted Tumblers. I read that as 'we didn't order enough & sold out'
They should be restocked next week. The 65qt coolers are in stock & the 80s should be in next Thursday.

Tough crowd... If you actually take the time to read the posts from GotDraw we shouldn't be expecting to hear more until next week...

If you take the time to read his posts, you will see we were suppose to hear late this week. Well it's Friday, so that is about as late as you get regarding a normal work schedule. I meant not to offend anyone, so I deleted the post.

Group Buy Status-

Many thanks for the patience thus far. The simple fact is that there have been a number typical business delays and issues to address regarding the Group-Buy. On the face of it, you'd think it would take a couple days; however, the deal needs to go down smoothly and with as little frustration as possible.

Delays-

Yes, there have been some delays, apologies. This is real deal and real deals sometimes take time to get done.

Here are a some, but not all-- Atlas has been working on a web redesign, shipping/web interface issues have had to be dealt with, order fulfillment has had to be addressed, I have been away on business and the Atlas exec I am working with was out of country for a while as well.
In addition, you can also be sure that this deal, while perhaps front burner for some of us, is a second order task to a business doing the volume these guys do. And if you're astute, you've no doubt made the cognitive leap that the sensitive issue of their current retailer client base has had to be discussed too.

This deal is almost done. We should have the web link and code up this week. I recommend that anyone who has concluded that this deal is smoke and mirrors, or anyone else who needs a cooler instantly order it at full price from Atlas or get one from another vendor.

RE Deal-Terms:

Apologies that I have elected NOT to dribble out information. Sorry if you're frustrated. I want to release information all in one shot, with all facts/terms as firmed up as possible. I do not want to deal with putting out drips and drabs of data that are not completely firmed up only to have to deal with dozens of post/requests for yet more information that isn't firmed and then deal with snarky, non-constructive responses when deal terms or deal timing change before being finalized.

Thank you again for the patience and all constructive support!

Best to all,

JL

This may or may not be something to consider but after first reading this post, and never hearing of Atlas before, I logged onto their website and found mugs very similar to Yeti mugs so I went ahead and purchased a 20 oz. and 30 oz. because they were cheap and I wanted to compare them to my Yeti's. That was exactly 3 weeks ago today and I have still yet to see them.
