Patience is the key…
It takes done time for them to send the confirmation email if you don’t have a valid corporate email. Keep calm. If you ordered it this morning, it should be there in your inbox by this evening or night. Keep checking the atmel site for updates on the status of your shipment. They have to confirm your order too.
That wasn’t asked for in my case.
Maybe the chinese have some restrictions in import so that they keep their economy under control. I’m not sure. I have been asked to fill a form for the earlier shipment of motors that I will have to collect today. Maybe it’s something similar.
Mail
Linuxmail worked for me.
company name
as far as i know for american samplers you do not need a company name i just left mine blank when i downloaded avr studio 6
hey
hey but do they charge any shipping charges.
I don’t think so…
Did they ask for your credit card? They didn’t in my case and since they are shipping with UPS, the charges for shipping should be prepaid. But still, there is no guarantee for it.
Free delivery!!
And that too without any hassles right to my doorstep…
Sorry for the initially crappy images.
These ones are no better but give you a bit more detail (later on, I’ll add a few using my 7 MP camera)…
Sorry for the initially crappy images.
Sorry, double post
Here’s my shipment…
Sorry as the images are crappy…
www.infinitytechnologies.blogspot.com My blog today…
Mine arrived today.
Mine arrived today. In massive box with a ridiculous amount of packaging.
Came with a statement of all the details, one of which was: “This is a free sample. Do not attempt payment.”
Me too!!
Mine arrived today as well, all 86 of them. Planning to start working on them FULL-TIME this weekend.
Ohk, I had an idea…
Since so many of us have been successful in getting the free samples, how about organizing this into some sort of a community competition? I don’t have any idea of how we’ll do this and what the competition will be but still, I want to know if people like the idea. Since almost all of us have ordered atmega 328pu, it will be fair if we limit ourselves to that chip.
How about it? Any ideas and opinions are welcome…

Thank you very much! I certtainly appreciate this. So does my wallet.
limit 3
just tried ordering atmel samples got “limit 3” but still good find
looks like all are limited
looks like all are limited to 3 now…3 per item, not 3 per order. not sure what max per order is…
Bad example
I think what you did is horrible. You lied and abused policy.
Because of people like you, many great companies have changed their policies and sample programs are now limited.
You ordered how many? 86 chips? 10 or 20 of each?
I don’t recall my company ever ordering more than 3 or 5 chips for testing, why would you need more? Are you selling them?
