I know it's still a little early to be questioning the contents of the Fuku, but as of 3 hours ago, I already have a shipping label printed off with a 2Lb weight, coming via smartpost.
Creating a thread to discuss shipping, predictions etc.
Thanks for the reminder. I'm a fedex site stalker when I'm waiting for a FUKU shipment. I must refresh that page a hundred times a day in anticipation of any change. (TC edit - I replaced your image because you left a tracking number in the bottom left.)
@Thumperchick Thanks for removing that last tracking number. People would have been able to see my physical address if they searched for it. We know this crowd so I wouldn't want any Meh users stalking me. :)
Yes mine shipped too and also 2 pounds as well..was hoping for something super excitng like maybe a roomba or drone but not at two pounds...so was hoping mine would have been in "processing limbo" longer...but guess not to be this round..anyways..still happy I got a FUKU #7 bag. Now if meh would include a job offer with the package..just dreaming :)
@AttyVette : @Barney is right! I got a roomba in the last fuku, and my tracking info said 2 lbs up until delivery. And who knows, maybe the 2lb package will include a note that results in a pallet full of broken roombas. Dream big!
Hmm. I also have a 2 pound placeholder and scheduled delivery for Feb 4th. Since that is right before my wife's birthday, I hope I don't have to give up the entire contents ;)
@DonDonSu My fuku weight is similar. i keep telling myself there must be a plaster statue inside. Just so I don't get my hopes too high. But who am I kidding?
Thursday the 28th was my birthday, the 27th my daughters, so I am happy and will be sharing this fuku with her! Thanks meh, still processing but looking forward to whatever mehful gifts come my way.
@gertiestn Thank you very much! Was a great day with my daughters birthday party today :)
On a side note, mine has shipped, and I just realized at some point last year my VMP messed up, must have been when I had an issue with my credit card, I am sad, been VMP since day 1.
This isn't my first Fuku, but I don't recall others having shipped and tracking numbers while still sitting at processing. I remember one having issues with not updating properly. Is it possible they've all been packaged and sent but it's not tying to my order?
@transplant last time mine was processing for quite awhile after others had received their FUKU bags..mine was a good bag and even got a net t look for second box so that is good sign for you. IMO. Since my bag has already shipped I take it mine will be meh this time..just a guess but I shall soon see...then everyone will see after I post the contents here.Still meh brings a smile to my face as not many smiles here lately...
Better half was not impressed with my revelation that a Valentine's Day fuku was en route. Her eyes seem to have returned from whence they rolled, a few hours later. I'm a sad excuse for a forum participant, but I think I've only missed one (plus the Kickstarter) so far. Priorities. Related: I haven't gone to sleep before mehdnight in 549 days. Reconsidering priorities...
2 lbs here as well. Shipping to NJ with an estimated delivery of Saturday the 6th. Unfortunately it is going to my work address so hopefully it will make it there by Friday.
Got my shipping email. My Fuku is due to arrive Saturday 2/6. Fingers crossed that it's a 2016 Harley Davidson Sportster Iron 883 in charcoal denim paint. Or a pallet of peanut butter spreaders. Either one.
@Barney under most circumstances higher weight packages tend to have better stuff...
Mine updated as well...went from 2.0 lbs to 1.7 lbs. I have a feeling i got shafted again. Sure...im very fortunate to get everyone of them thus far...but since Fuku 3 mine have been sooo underwhelming most worse than the norm for the round.
@studerc Well, you and I both know that we can never tell what is going to be in a fuku. I do wish that your luck has changed and you get something special in your fuku -- maybe a note saying that another package is coming for you? In the meantime, I'll see if I can get my mailman to haul my friend's bag of dirt into the house.
@Barney I love it. My package is to arrive on Thursday...but...I live in Iowa and theres a potential cluster fuck working its way to Iowa. Fingers crossed for a few snow days as a consolation for likely not gettin my fuku until Saturday.
@studerc You live in Iowa??? I feel so sorry for you right now. Have you just kept your phones turned off for the last few weeks? Don't worry, it should all be over soon.
@Barney, I hope your "friend" gets a great haul! I'm sure she deserves it. Your "friend" should come chat with us sometime. :-) Also, when did you get a K????
@PurplePawprints It actually has been pretty nice for the past few weeks. Chilly at times in which ill wear a coat but most days a light jacket is fine.
Most Iowans are used to this shit. Havent had a late start, early out, or snow day YET!
@studerc I was talking about the caucus, but that's good, too. As far as the weather, today was nice here, but yesterday was the first day I'd left the house in over a week due to being snowed in, so yeah.
@PurplePawprints Im a Social Studies teacher...i love caucus time. Strange for how involved i tend to be in politics i havent recieved a single phone call.
Most of my time is spent trying to "help" my friends actually understand politics and each candidiate's background. Getting tired of people "feeling the Bern" without understanding what Socialism is...ughhhhhh.
@studerc I guess it's a good thing you can't see my Facebook then.... Glad you actually enjoy this time of the year. It would be just a bit too much crazy for me.
@SirEvelyn Lately, it seems that the ones that remain in processing for a while, have been the extra special Fukus. That doesn't mean that they have all been good. :)
@SirEvelyn I just received my email that it went from processing to shipped about an hour ago. I wouldn't be concerned, and try never to get excited about Fukus. Managing expectations is key.
Shipped today, due Saturday, if delayed it could arrive on my birthday. I'm thinking the pony might slow the shipment down a bit, you know, stopping to feed it and all?
My Fuku is now one state away. Delivery day has been bumped up from Saturday to Thursday. The excitement here is so thick you can cut it with a usb hubman.
My 2lb placeholder weight has been updated to a whopping 2.7 pounds. I guess that means it's probably not Gwenyth Paltrow's head. So at least there's that.
Weight finally updated to 2.4 lbs and 9x9x9; I'm smelling a whole lot of meh coming off that weight. I figure I will get @studerc 's haul plus the missing minivac.
@nalesean at a way! Keep those expectations tempered nice and low! Appreciate the shout out...i love re-living my terrible experiences over and over again ;)
@nalesean Mine too. Preparing from just as much disappointment as the fuko. At least I know I won't have a broken TV that I have to haul to the recycling center.
My 2.9lb 10x10x10" fuku is just twenty minutes away! It needs to head down the 5, across the 94 freeway, and south on 32nd... await... or would it be quicker going down 15 and then jumping on Imperialll??
woo! my delivery got bumped up by 3 days (from next monday to this friday). that fedex driver must have been hauling ass from NM to OR. still sitting at 2 lbs. no dimensions.
My Fuku is within 100 miles of me. Unfortunately it is still saying delivery for Saturday which will not work since my office is closed on Saturday. I am still holding out hope that it will get here tomorrow or Friday. Also Fedex is still keeping it at the 2 pound placeholder... I believe that this means it must be too heavy and big to fit on any of their scales to reweigh it ;-)
@woozy99 Update - I spoke too soon. It made it to then next Smartpost Stop this afternoon. They finally got around to weighing and measuring and it has been updated to 18.5 pounds!!! box is a 17x17x17. Woohoo!!!
Mine's already in guys. Gotta lunchbox, some valentines day cards/candy, some sort of weird desk cleaner thing, some silicon cupcake molds and an xbox 360 razer gaming headset. It works too!
I just saw my shipping info, too. Same place holder.
@Thumperchick @lichme Me too!!
Thanks for the reminder. I'm a fedex site stalker when I'm waiting for a FUKU shipment. I must refresh that page a hundred times a day in anticipation of any change.
(TC edit - I replaced your image because you left a tracking number in the bottom left.)
@Thumperchick that's so we can all help notify of any changes ;) I see a new thread and a game starting...
edit* Awww man...no game
@jaybird I just sucked the fun out of that game.
@Thumperchick Thanks for removing that last tracking number. People would have been able to see my physical address if they searched for it. We know this crowd so I wouldn't want any Meh users stalking me. :)
@cengland0
@cengland0 Dammit!
My, uh, friend just got an email from Meh. Fuku shipped and due on Thursday, February 4. Placeholder, 2 pounds.
@Barney does that friend have a fondness for the color purple, perchance?
@oppodude Doesn't everyone love purple?
I have the same details as @Barney's "friend".
@Barney true. my wife adores purple.
@oppodude Your wife has good taste. After all, she married you!
@Barney I wouldn't go that far ... ;-)
@Barney Aww, thanks, but i weigh a little more than that.
@placeholder Nobody likes an underfed placeholder. I guess we'll just have to fatten you up!
26.3 pounds of Fuku is now supposed to be delivered on Tuesday!
@Barney Placeholder usually lies :)
Mine has moved to within 12 miles of me, but not scheduled for delivery until Tuesday.
Just saw the shipped notification too! 2lb placeholder to be delivered next Friday! The whole family shakes with anticipation!
2lbs. At FedEx.
Thursday ETA.
Kinda figures my Fuku would ship out before my Chromebook (that I kinda need sober rather than later...)
@bakerzdosen And we all know it's just hanging out at the warehouse drinking, so there's no chance of it arriving sober and later.
@christinewas I'm not even going to blame that one on autocorrect. It was all me. :)
@bakerzdosen "(that I kinda need sober rather than later...)" Best typo ever? Or is it true?
Yes mine shipped too and also 2 pounds as well..was hoping for something super excitng like maybe a roomba or drone but not at two pounds...so was hoping mine would have been in "processing limbo" longer...but guess not to be this round..anyways..still happy I got a FUKU #7 bag. Now if meh would include a job offer with the package..just dreaming :)
@AttyVette The 2 pound number is just a placeholder; it is not the final weight. Don't give up hope for that Roomba!
@AttyVette : @Barney is right! I got a roomba in the last fuku, and my tracking info said 2 lbs up until delivery. And who knows, maybe the 2lb package will include a note that results in a pallet full of broken roombas. Dream big!
@AttyVette They have a few openings ...
turbulent-premium-rhythm is on the way!
No tracking number yet...
Hmm. I also have a 2 pound placeholder and scheduled delivery for Feb 4th. Since that is right before my wife's birthday, I hope I don't have to give up the entire contents ;)
@einrad This is getting interesting: 23.4 lbs, 17x17x17 in. I hope I can keep resisting to peek in the reveal thread. Anticipation is killing me...
@einrad My leaded-fiery-tramp is out for delivery
@einrad Shipping weight was right, but dimensions were totally off. See reveal thread.
That feel when still processing.
@UnguidedSALT Same.
2lb with a delivery date on Feb 4th. I took a vacation day to make sure I'm home!
2lbs and Thursday seems to be the running theme here so I wont buck the system. Same Same.
Still processing.... My first Fuku ever.
2 lbs place holder, next Saturday. Hope hign!
@DonDonSu Mine is still processing...
@Baybay11 That must be a jackpot Fuku!
My dimension and weight update:
17x17x17
22.2 lbs
Does Fuku come in cube boxes?
@DonDonSu My fuku weight is similar. i keep telling myself there must be a plaster statue inside. Just so I don't get my hopes too high. But who am I kidding?
@einrad My fun is over. I have posted my haulings in the reveal thread. You still have the fun before you actually opens up your delivery. Enjoy.
@DonDonSu Thanks. Looks like we both got a full size vacuum :)
Thursday the 28th was my birthday, the 27th my daughters, so I am happy and will be sharing this fuku with her! Thanks meh, still processing but looking forward to whatever mehful gifts come my way.
@jgdovin happy belated bday!
@gertiestn Thank you very much! Was a great day with my daughters birthday party today :)
On a side note, mine has shipped, and I just realized at some point last year my VMP messed up, must have been when I had an issue with my credit card, I am sad, been VMP since day 1.
@jgdovin Me too. Credit card was compromised so it was changed. Bye bye all that time as a VMP.
LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICH!
my scheduled delivery is still pending.
Mine is due on Monday. Also a 2lb placeholder coming via smartpost.
This isn't my first Fuku, but I don't recall others having shipped and tracking numbers while still sitting at processing. I remember one having issues with not updating properly. Is it possible they've all been packaged and sent but it's not tying to my order?
@Potatoboy Mine shows up in my Fedex delivery manager but meh still shows processing and I haven't received a shipment email yet.
@stardate820926 FedEx delivery manager only works sometimes for me. It keeps switching my apartment's address between a home and a business.
@Potatoboy Got my email! Est delivery is currently Thursday but I usually get them a little faster.
@stardate820926 booooo. The meh email or fedex email?
@Potatoboy sorry, the meh email
@stardate820926 got mine today. still placeholder weight though
My tracking updated and the delivery date was moved up from Thursday to today!
@stardate820926 Yaaay!
I don't remember why other Fuku being shipped so quickly.
Hmmm... is this a good thing or bad thing?
@transplant last time mine was processing for quite awhile after others had received their FUKU bags..mine was a good bag and even got a net t look for second box so that is good sign for you. IMO. Since my bag has already shipped I take it mine will be meh this time..just a guess but I shall soon see...then everyone will see after I post the contents here.Still meh brings a smile to my face as not many smiles here lately...
Mine still says processing. I'm really excited because this will be my first Fuku, and I'm looking forward to it.
I don't remember why other Fuku being shipped so quickly.
Hmmm... is this a good thing or bad thing?
PS: edited to add Feb 5 anticipated arrival date.
2lb place holder, delivery Friday. Normally comes a day early, fingers crossed!
Better half was not impressed with my revelation that a Valentine's Day fuku was en route. Her eyes seem to have returned from whence they rolled, a few hours later.
I'm a sad excuse for a forum participant, but I think I've only missed one (plus the Kickstarter) so far.
Priorities.
Related: I haven't gone to sleep before mehdnight in 549 days.
Reconsidering priorities...
@djugurba she might want to see a ophthalmologist for that eye rolling problem.
Mine weighs 27.8 pounds and measures 26x15x32**
What in the hell?
**I'm lying.
@capguncowboy I think that was the size and weight of my trove of neoprene sleeves.
Feb 5, 2 lb placeholder.
Damn that was quick to ship.
Moved on to Nashville but no update on weight
2 lbs here as well. Shipping to NJ with an estimated delivery of Saturday the 6th. Unfortunately it is going to my work address so hopefully it will make it there by Friday.
Got my shipping email. My Fuku is due to arrive Saturday 2/6. Fingers crossed that it's a 2016 Harley Davidson Sportster Iron 883 in charcoal denim paint. Or a pallet of peanut butter spreaders. Either one.
My narcissistic-lawful-platinum showed up early! It was supposed to be here Monday.
I posted the contents in the "Fukubukuro 7" thread.
@bluebeatpete See my comment in the Fuku 7 thread.
@bluebeatpete New thread created, sorry folks.
@bluebeatpete Nah, there is no need to be sorry. Starting a new reveal thread is an honor you have earned by getting the first fuku.
Mine still shows processing, I bet they are still looking for that pony I wished for.
@DMlivezey They're trying to get it into the box.
@sammydog01 I hope they strap a Depends on it ;)
@DMlivezey And a muzzle.
2lb placeholder here as well. Due next Saturday.
Mine says "Sat 2/06/2016 by end of day" as the estimate, so most likely Thursday or Friday.
Mine usually goes thru Wisconsin but its going thru Kentucky this time. Hoping that means good things.
My "friend" just got an update on her Fuku. Arriving on Wednesday and it weighs 26.3 pounds. Yippee!?
@Barney under most circumstances higher weight packages tend to have better stuff...
Mine updated as well...went from 2.0 lbs to 1.7 lbs. I have a feeling i got shafted again. Sure...im very fortunate to get everyone of them thus far...but since Fuku 3 mine have been sooo underwhelming most worse than the norm for the round.

@Barney Haha Makes as much sense as anything else around here, I guess.
@PurplePawprints Im a Social Studies teacher...i love caucus time. Strange for how involved i tend to be in politics i havent recieved a single phone call.

Wooowhoo.. fuku arrived in my state today -- changed delivery date to Thursday. Still in one piece, 2lbs.
So at what point should I be concerned and/or excited my actual-motorized-gate is still processing?
@SirEvelyn Lately, it seems that the ones that remain in processing for a while, have been the extra special Fukus. That doesn't mean that they have all been good. :)
@SirEvelyn I just received my email that it went from processing to shipped about an hour ago. I wouldn't be concerned, and try never to get excited about Fukus. Managing expectations is key.
Shipped today, due Saturday, if delayed it could arrive on my birthday. I'm thinking the pony might slow the shipment down a bit, you know, stopping to feed it and all?
i am so excited my package is 3 hours away. still says delivered by friday, but i suspect that will change, or i hope it will. it is so close.
My Fuku is now one state away. Delivery day has been bumped up from Saturday to Thursday. The excitement here is so thick you can cut it with a usb hubman.
Wellll..mine has gone past my house and now left the state..to return to it by Thursday..updated weight 3.7lbs.
@mikibell logistics are fun :)
@thismyusername thank God it isn't part of my job!
@mikibell wow...went out of state and back in state overnight! Out for delivery today, four days early!! Wow..fastest fuku ever..
5.8 lbs
Has spent the last 3 days in the same place. yay cheap shipping ;)
My 2lb placeholder weight has been updated to a whopping 2.7 pounds. I guess that means it's probably not Gwenyth Paltrow's head. So at least there's that.
My shipment just updated to a very interesting weight/dimension combination:
18.9 lbs
17x17x17
Due on Friday, which means I might get it on Thursday, but will have to go pick it up at the in-laws.
I've been avoiding the reveal thread, but I 100% won't be able to hold out much longer.
Updated shipping numbers:
32.4 lbs / 14.7 kgs
17x17x17
What the hell did you send me, Meh?
@BillLehecka Holy smokes! They probably sent you a live goat. Or baby goat...
My fuku FedEx update hasn't changed since Saturday. Still says Kentucky. Wtf? Never had it for that long between updates.
Mine just updated to: 4.5 lbs / 2.04 kgs
crazy. mine has changed city, and the previous city isn't even listed in the tracking now.
in any case, yay it is closer now. i believe it is inthe city they hand off to post office.
Weight finally updated to 2.4 lbs and 9x9x9; I'm smelling a whole lot of meh coming off that weight. I figure I will get @studerc 's haul plus the missing minivac.
(Brace for disappointment!) :)
@nalesean at a way! Keep those expectations tempered nice and low! Appreciate the shout out...i love re-living my terrible experiences over and over again ;)
@nalesean Mine too. Preparing from just as much disappointment as the fuko. At least I know I won't have a broken TV that I have to haul to the recycling center.
Mine is an 11 inch cube and 4.2 lbs. No roomba in there.
My 2.9lb 10x10x10" fuku is just twenty minutes away! It needs to head down the 5, across the 94 freeway, and south on 32nd... await... or would it be quicker going down 15 and then jumping on Imperialll??
By the end of friday, my Fuku 7 shall arise from the porch in a 9x9x9 inch package weighting a 2.4lbs or 1.09kgs.
I'm hoping its a battery for my roomba that is wrapped in 100 dollar bills.
woo! my delivery got bumped up by 3 days (from next monday to this friday). that fedex driver must have been hauling ass from NM to OR. still sitting at 2 lbs. no dimensions.
My Fuku is within 100 miles of me. Unfortunately it is still saying delivery for Saturday which will not work since my office is closed on Saturday. I am still holding out hope that it will get here tomorrow or Friday. Also Fedex is still keeping it at the 2 pound placeholder...

@woozy99 Update - I spoke too soon. It made it to then next Smartpost Stop this afternoon. They finally got around to weighing and measuring and it has been updated to 18.5 pounds!!! box is a 17x17x17. Woohoo!!!
Mine is set to arrive at my po box tomorrow. 17x17x17. At 30.5 lbs. I got a big one folks
Mine shot up to 18.8 lbs, 17″³, and is apparently out for delivery today (several days ahead of schedule)!
Mine's already in guys. Gotta lunchbox, some valentines day cards/candy, some sort of weird desk cleaner thing, some silicon cupcake molds and an xbox 360 razer gaming headset. It works too!
@bxm83 This forum is just for shipping updates. There is a reveal thread in the main forum page as well where you post what you received.
My fuku finally updated. Just a few hours away now and it went up to 7lbs and 13x13x13. hmmm
@msujp to add to the mystery, some who show a cube have ended up with a dyson (that was not a cube box) so there is that...
@thismyusername you did that just to screw with my emotions didnt you?
@msujp naw I was building mystery! :)
Mine just updated on the Fedex tracking site:
11x11x11 and 3.5 pounds. Do I get the record for the smallest and lightest package of them all?
finally got dimensions. 10x10x10. guess no Kristen Bell this time.
@carl669
@lichme oh, if only i could hear her say that.
Mine was due today, but has updated to Friday delivery. I blame the gorgeous winter storm (my neighborhood got 2 feet).
It has updated to a 12" cube weighing 5.6 lbs. So I at least have the necessary evidence to subdue any hopes of some sort of robotic vacuum.
