I don't suppose this could mean that Jon has a life outside of his figs and this forum? Perish the thought!!

I believe/hope that Jon is still working on orders . I can’t imagine the work involved . Just sending out 2 or 3 of the same cultivars to maybe dozen people taxed me. A mix of 600+ to potentially 1000s of people I am sure in the 100s is insane work.
I received my confirmation the morning after list was posted, but nothng further as yet.. I think I had F4F foundation priority. At least I have the Tax document they sent out in January stating my contribution. At least I am setting better that last year when I never received confirmation unless it ended up in my spam and I missed. I never followed up last year just kept waiting until the point I assumed little I wanted would be left .

Are orders being fulfilled alphabetically? Anybody got a reply from Jon whose last name starts with P, Q, or R, for instance?

I am an S and got my order already. I was also a contributor, so not sure if that makes a difference, I did see Jon write in the directions that if you had a mistake in your order, or your numbers were not in order, or if your order wast not written out the way he put it in the directions, that your order would have to be put aside and processed later. Again, I am not saying this is why you have not gotten your order(s) yet, but could be a reason for some people, along with if they donated or not.
The first time I ordered from Jon so many years ago, I made mistakes.

Guys, I have been staring through Jon's window in his computer room for the last week, and have not yet deciphered the pattern of his order processing. I will let you know if and when I do. I need to go now, it looks like he may be calling the police again.

George, I think someone has been spiking my DDP with anti-crazy pills. I had planned on ordering 20, but then ended up with an order of 5 (the other 15 were available to order). Others who have listed what they ordered have indicated they did not get many of what I have ordered. So I am not expecting more than a couple, if any at all... and I'm surprisingly okay with that. I've not found Jon's emails in my spam folder before, but I try to check every once in a while because I find other things in there. It's not in there, unless he is trying to get me to watch a video about three words I can say to make any woman go to bed with me while sending me information about my order...

Perhaps Jon is taking after the "Soup Nazi" in the old Sienfeld Show. If you make a one mistake (or gripe/worry too much) you go to the back of the line. Two mistakes and "No Figs for you!"

Igor…….. have faith man, Jon will come through. Like you, I’ve heard nothing, nadda, zilch. Appears we share same spot on the priority list, ha, ha. Hey, maybe he’s saving the special cuttings for those last filled……………. :-)

Jack, I thought Jon mentioned there were already too many fig trees in CA... so he was making sure the rest of the country got them first....
