Maybe today it will be shipped?

As payment has been taken, I'm fairly sure it has been shipped.

I think the main problem is with the notification process.

The money was withdrawn from the card just today?

No, last time I checked my payment was still pending. I meant your payment has been taken.

Oh, I see. Let's wait further :)

I have created a poll/survey, I'd appreciate it, if everyone would submit their experience.

I didn’t receive a notification but it arrived yesterday! It’s my first Mule so I am looking forward to putting it through some good honest work. Happy National Knife Day to everyone!

Got mine today. Now I need to find my PD1 Mule, sharpen this one and see how they compare.

WOW. Nice handle scale. Did you make it yourself?

Atleast 250 people bought these Mules but there are only 22 responses to the survey.

If you have experienced poor or no notifications, please let Spyderco know (Kristi is watching the survey) by sharing your experience. There are unlikely to be any changes if only a few of us are affected.

TIA

I always get shipping email from SFO regarding international shipping, never get notification from USPS but it is fine.
This time is a bit rare, I still did not get shipping email from SFO. Just wait...

Just wanted to throw this out there in case this applies to anyone who has not received any notifications or have not had their card charged yet. I did receive a confirmation from Spyderco that said my order was accepted along with a purchase order number. When I placed this order I was at work and due to my potential bothersome enthusiasm with this particular blade, I even got some non knife enthusiasts excited as well and the few who showed interest all were able to purchase this particular Mule. Unfortunately one of the three who purchased this was not working from home that day but with me at the office and his speed with the keyboard was far superior to mine and submitted his purchase before I could. Today he mentioned to me that he should receive his Mule tomorrow. I have not had any indication my purchase was moving forward. So I called Spyderco and was told that my order was cancelled. $%^&#@!*&^%$ I asked why and was told it was because I tried to order twice and therefore the second attempt was cancelled. I explained that this was not the case but was then told two purchases were made from the same IP address.
Then it hit me. 2 per household. For some of you this might mean your shipping address, perhaps the email associated with a purchase, the specific credit card number or some other reason. But the IP address never entered my mind and I suppose that one is on me. But I work with a semi large company with around of 80 employees and VPN's are not allowed and the use of the internet is basically locked down for general searches and approved sites of which Spyderco was one of. Using ones personal cell phone may or may not work due to horrible reception in the city so we generally use wifi for calling, for internet, or use the company provided phone. With all of that, for these 80 or so people, it's all the same IP address. Only one of us can make a purchase with Spyderco during Mule time.
Spyderco, you can do better. I understand this technicality was on me for not understanding how this worked. For me this didn't seem to be common knowledge. Of the many many times I've lost out on a Mule purchase due to just not being fast enough or dealing with the &^%$@#*& who use bots to make their purchases, but I don't do that and try to play fair and accept that when I can't make a purchase better luck next time. But I actually got in, and then lost it over this **** IP address scenario.
So if any of this winded story applies to any of you who made a purchase where others were also making purchases under the same roof (doesn't mean household!!!) then know it was because of the IP address and that's why you may not have received any notifications. And Spyderco, if you would be so kind, would you mind making it more clear as to what household means? I understand I may be a minority with this particular situation but I would think this isn't the first time this has happened.

Just got my z-wear today! It is extremely sharp, even a better edge than the z-max.

But I did not get a sticker this time…

That's odd she was very quick to reply when I emailed her. Maybe she's on vacation?

I got an e-mail from jenn. She said that her email was compromised Friday and she had not been able to get anything.

How about contacting by phone?

She got back to me same day after my email inquiry, maybe her response ended up in your spam folder?

Just got a text message from Royal Mail stating I have a package sent from SFO. I guess I got one.
