Me too and me either. But I'm nursing a broken foot with ligament damage, so there's that.

I'll probably uncrate it this week and get it put together and oil added if not already done from the factory. Won't put gas in it until I plan on using it, probably not until late September at the earliest.

Mine was delivered yesterday. I also was able to get HD to refund me about 60 dollars because it was late. Talking to the delivery guy he said it must have been a hell of a sale because mine was the 5th one he delivered that day.

Bamarep snagged one of the champions. Looks like a solid unit. I already had a rear tine, but WTF. I'm a sucker for a good deal.

Here's the good part. Saw an ad on my home page for $25 off a tiller at Tractor Supply and for the hell of it clicked to see what tiller.

The exact same one that we got from HD for under $200 and they priced theirs at $899.99-----but you get $25 off.

Still haven't gotten mine. There were two delays and the last update was that it was going to be delivered on the 22nd. No update since then.

If picking it up at the store-----bring help. That damn crate it comes in is awkward to deal with and pretty heavy to boot.

Between the crate and tiller, probably between 175-200 lbs.

My wife and I got it in the truck, but I'm dealing with a broken foot in a walking boot and neither of us are spring chickens. I'm 70 and she's 64.

Two healthy men should make it an easier task.

Yeah, I had to uncrate it in the back of my truck. It’s a beast.

People with lost orders have been able to get a price match to other brands. Some people are getting the fancier troybilt models as a replacement.

Probably someone in the store got word about how cheaply they were selling them and THEN it got misplaced in the back of their truck leaving you with a refund instead of a tiller.

Seems a bunch took a while to come in. The orders were clearly overwhelming lol.

As for the “lost ones” on FB marketplace there’s a ton going for $400.

Still havent gotten mine. I texted HD support at the end of the month and they said there was a delay (obviously) and that it would be there in 5-7 business day. This will be the 3rd or 4th time it has missed the updated ETA.

I plan on using mine and keeping it but I was pretty sure some who bought them were just going to turn them over and make some money on them.

Looks like you confirmed my suspicion.

Yep, I almost bought one just to have but decided I don't really have the space or the need. I'm seeing a few posted locally from the sale all brand new in the box, so some obviously bought to try to flip.

I got mine today, a month late. I just kept harassing them about where the tiller was and what was the expected delivery. I haven't unboxed it yet so hopefully it works. Thanks H & G Board!
