All Quiet on the Oppo front?

Many Oppo fans were talking about getting their pre-ordered UDP-205's a month ago, but no new posts as to current status. I haven't heard a word. I kinda thought there would be a July release, but apparently not.

Anybody receive any news from Oppo in the past month?

Well, this is somewhat confusing. 😂

@mcgal did you signup for the waiting list AND verify your email address on the same date? I understand that Oppo is prioritizing based on the initial date of contact, not the date when the email address is verified. The two dates can differ.

Yes, I signed up for the waiting list at least a month or two before I received the verifying email that I still wished to make the purchase. The two dates were different.

Ok. So there appears some confusion here. Everyone gets an auto-reply from Oppo email requesting that they verify their email address. Thereafter, months later, some folks get a second email confirming their interest in getting a player? Is that second Oppo email the same as requesting payment, or did Oppo send yet a third email requesting payment?

Below is the email I received on 5/9/18. I had entered my email address on the Oppo website about a month or 2 before saying I was interested in purchasing a 205.

On 8/29/18 I received an email from Oppo with a special link to purchase the 205 which I paid for immediately. I received the 205 9/6/18.
