Massman Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 (edited) Hey guys, Just wanted to share some information about the Streacom BC1 and the OBT Open Benchtable. The BC1 will be in retail by December (I think) and we'll update with links below. The main difference between the OBT and the BC1 is the traveler sleeve and the limited edition engraving. The BC1 is fully compatible with all the OBT mods/tools, so you don't have to worry about that. Will update the list when I find more time //17/02 Update: full list on the Open Benchtable website Stock - Open Benchtable :celebration: Edited February 17, 2017 by Massman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M.Beier Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Yay, thats really good news, and makes it a lot easier as for VAT and import taxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halo_003 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Any idea if one of the US retailers will carry it? ie, PPCs? I would love one but the shipping is a bit much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 Based on the site information, Streacom is sold by 7 stores in the US (including Newegg): Where to Buy | Streacom I'd say maybe get in touch to see if they will carry the BC-1?

Members GeorgeStorm Posted October 26, 2016 Members Share Posted October 26, 2016 The price is far better, just a pity you can't get one of the limited edition versions from a local place to avoid the extra shipping and taxes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 Maybe it would worth doing a group order of community editions from the UK? That'd save in shipping costs already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is even before shipping, let alone tax it's more expensive than OCUK will be selling it for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massman Posted February 10, 2017 Author Share Posted February 10, 2017 Small update: we're working on finding a solution for Australia. Looks like the BC1 isn't getting to retail as easily as we had hoped. The OBT is completely sold out, but we're planning a new batch. More information soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share Posted February 17, 2017 Small update, I will be adding the links on the openbenchtable website from now on: Stock - Open Benchtable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteWulfe Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Being able to sort by country would be a nice feature, as some of the vendors listed have different websites for different countries, like say, Newegg.... Where it's available on the US side, but not Canadian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmbot Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Any idea when Newegg stock is back in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crew Trouffman Posted June 8, 2017 Crew Share Posted June 8, 2017 The stock is already back on Openbenchtable.com for the past weeks and shipping worldwide. If Newegg ordered a refill, that can take up to 3-4months depending on shipments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcoliu Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 A local retailer (Capital Computer Centre) in Hong Kong now sells the BC1 bench table. I do not know if this is a one time off arrangement (ie until inventory runs out) or a long term commitment. I visit the store today and see the store has about a dozen there. All 3 versions (silver, black and red) are available and they all sell at the same price (HK$ 999). Link:- Quotation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
