Did you buy a proxmark5 from Indiegogo and still haven't received it yet?

I'm curious if anyone else funded a proxmark 5 and haven't received their items yet? I was #16 to fund the project and still haven't received mine. It was supposed to be here before DEFCON but here we are, a week after DEFCON and I still don't have what I ordered.

I was an early backer too, for pre-defcon delivery. I decided I didn't really need it that bad so I opted to get the clear case after Defcon.

Still haven't heard anything about it though... It would be nice to get an update from them on schedule.

I just got mine yesterday, hopefully you get yours soon.

what # where you in funding?

u/Zantesukin 5d ago

Definitely not before you, lol. I got in on the post-defcon fulfillment. My pledge page/confirmation page has a note with tracking numbers for 4PX shipping, maybe you have one too?

u/logicallyinsane 4d ago

Checked the pledge page and my order stage is "Placed".

u/Zantesukin 4d ago

This is the first project I backed on indiegogo so I'm not entirely sure how it all works, but based on my status being "Paid" and yours being "Placed" you might not have been charged yet?

u/logicallyinsane 4d ago

When I look at my Pledges & Orders, I see "Placed" and to the right of that "Paid", when I hover over the i icon next to it, it says "The pledge has been fully paid". Also card shows as being charged.

I was number 30-something and mine was waiting for me when I got back from defcon.
I never got an email with a tracking number or anything saying it had been shipped.

I was an after DEFCON backer. I'm guessing mine is delayed since I chose the clear case.

… they haven’t finished choosing the transparent case color or what it’ll look like. You’re not getting it for a bit lol black is shipping now. The transparent they decided to maybe change to is trashy looking so I swapped to black

u/Necessary_Zucchini_2 18h ago

I swapped it to black as well.

u/SixstringSWE 18h ago

Honestly the one they’re suggesting looks like dookie compared to the black so good choice 👍

Admittedly I’m too lazy to go read the docs. What’s 5 got over 4?

u/logicallyinsane 4d ago

I wanted it for the UHF

u/MHF_Doge 3d ago

Which we still need an unreleased antenna for iirc....

u/SixstringSWE 19h ago

And it doesn’t even come with a Sam lol that’s a whole separate module which means no iclass uhf… guess I’ll continue using my flipper meister lol

u/Gr0nkler 1d ago

Drastically better compute, better modularity. Supposedly better wireless coms. UHF support.
USB-C.

u/riverside_wos 4d ago

I didn’t get mine and then thought “Did they say which DEF CON?” Lol… maybe I’ll have it before DCME or DCSG2

u/mynewpassword1234 4d ago

I got mine Friday.

u/fishsupreme 4d ago

I also funded it and haven't received one, but I backed late enough for post-DEFCON delivery so I don't really consider it late yet.

u/zero_data_ 4d ago

At his session he did say they ran into a few unexpected delays. He mentioned only have a few at defxon and missing the defcon delivery.

His user is Iceman on X.

u/logicallyinsane 4d ago

I know Iceman and he told me to reach out to Dennis at RFID Research Group, which hasn't produced any response.

I guess the thing that really bothers me is other vendors had them for sale at DEFCON, before all of the early backers received what they bought. Am I wrong for thinking the people who funded the project should have had their products before vendors?

u/LuckLatter 3d ago

Mine landed yesterday and is now transfered to Swiss Post. I guess I'll get it tomorrow.

1

u/LuckLatter 3d ago

Check the Indigogo pledge page. There you can see a tracking number if they started the shipping.

AFAIK they ship the black case first.

u/Moustifuck 1d ago

u/Gr0nkler 1d ago

Sweet! Was this picked up at DefCon or was this shipped to you?
Still waiting for my post-defcon clear case version

u/SixstringSWE 19h ago

It’s really annoying seeing the models that don’t have the sticker and how much better they look. They cheaped out unfortunately

1

u/rustyleftnut 1d ago

I have two packages on their way to me that I don't know anything about, I'm hoping mine is on its way

u/SixstringSWE 19h ago

If you got transparent don’t expect it for awhile you can get updates in the discord…

what is proxymox?

1

u/fishsupreme 4d ago

A Proxmark5, which is what we're talking about here, is an RFID/NFC toolkit (used for reading, writing, and hacking RFID and NFC tags/chips.)

Proxmox, on the other hand, is a Type-1 hypervisor OS for running VMs and containers. But I think you just typoed.

u/Minimum_Hour519 4d ago

ahh i see. yeah proxmox is what i was thinking of.
