ill give people a better idea of what i agreed to and what has happened

calm put together this buy, when putting together the kits he took some advice from someone who made several mistake, and calm being new to the keyboard world, through no fault of his own didnt spot them

due to personal circumstances, calm couldnt conclude the buy, the sets were made, but stuck at SP in limbo

i agreed to step in and help, under the impression the sets were ready to go, we had an order list and the money to ship them

when the sets arrived, we realised there were missing keys and things in the wrong kit

myself and others raised the funds to produce the keys needed, and i paid myself to have a gh key made to match the set for every order

this took some time

once we had those keys, we began shipping, due to several large overseas orders, the money we were given for shipping ran out fast

i started to subsidize the cost of shipping this buy myself

when we took this buy on, we allotted some time for it, based around our schedule, that time long since expired and we were busy with our own projects and out of money to ship this

me and calm spoke and he kindly added some of his own funds to continue shipping

another 50 orders were sent

sadly due to a mistake our end, dealing with the spreadsheet we were given and not our usual system, raccoon mistakenly shipped 15 orders that had already been sent

as this happened, raccoon was out of town, for an unknown length of time

i didnt want the additional orders being shipped back to his house whilst he wasnt there

he is back now, and as soon as he arrived home, i posted in this thread for the double orders to contact me so we could continue shipping

So, do I read that correctly, that we're down to just those 15 folks who haven't gotten their set?

no

that is not correct

we sent a run of 50 orders out before raccoon went away, and 15 of those were duplicate orders

if i had to put a figure on it, id say that we have roughly 50 sets left to go, we will get all orders out that we have the keys for very soon, and we will turn around the duplicate orders as soon as we get them back

If any help is needed with shipping these sets from or in the United States, I can help out.  I have the time, dedication, and shipping know how to get the last of these shipments out to their buyer.  I am confident that various members here can vouch for my integrity and reliability.

I'm tired of waiting and I am tired of other people having to wait.  This is getting ridiculous.

raccoon is back now we are working on it, we are now just working on getting the double shipments back from people so we can conclude shipping

this isnt late because of lack of effort, it was missing keys, and then we didnt have enough money to ship it, myself and calm together have now put enough money in to conclude shipping, and the person with the sets was out of town for a month

he is back now, and this will be going out, this has been a nightmare for me and im not getting anything out of it

if you would like to pay to ship the remaining orders yourself, you are welcome to


Ok, thanks for the response.  I would only pay to ship if they were in my possession, as I know that I would get them out in a timely manner and make sure they are correct.

How quaint. An uncomfortable number of us are waiting on round 1.

Having said that, I wouldn't mind seeing this in, say DSA profile. Then my 40% for-the-laptop would be still small, and look cool, while my stainless steel ergodox would be color coordinated and stately to type upon.

Pretty sure my AbuStudios PCB is in ... no sign of my keysets yet. *crosses*fingers* soon, though...

update for you guys, sorry about some info in the quote that doesnt concern this buy, but it is all applicable to explain the timelines of things

ok

i managed to speak to raccoon today, he is getting better from his stay in hospital

and we have set out a full roadmap to completely clear everything

im sorry if not everyone is happy with the order this is happening in, but we have laid stuff out like this to make sure we get things out as best as possible, without making deadlines we cant keep, that being said, this is a forecast, so it may deviate slightly, but me and raccoon spent a long time discussing timelines and make almost worst case scenario projections

so

there are 10 nostalgia orders left to send, these will be going out today september 25th

all raindrop non cable orders will have gone out by october 3rd
most of what is left of calm depths will be out by october 3rd (minus the double orders which i can now sort out as raccoon is home)

so, by october 3rd, a little over a week from now, we will conclude nostalgia, all of calm depths than we can do, and every raindrop non cable order

after this

penumbra cable orders will go out, this will be done by october 10th

so by october 10th we will have penumbra and nostalgia behind us, as well has almost all of calm depths concluded, or potentially all of calm depths if the kits come back in time

after october 10th, all that will be left is raindrop cables and toxic, now, instead of planning these out, we just spoke roughly, the plan is, on october 10th i will hook up with raccoon again, and lay out a plan for these in much the same way we did with everything else listed above

the rough guide is we will have the raindrop cable orders shipped by around the 20th, so that we are then only left with toxic with raccoon, again as a rough guide i would suggest non cable toxic will take a week, then cable toxic will take 10 - 14 days after

thank you to everyone who has shown support and patience over this bottleneck period

you can get away with a lot of *****ing and moaning about groupbuys, but Bunny has to be the most transparent and responsive GB runner on the site and he LITERALLY laid out a timeline for this buy just above. you're not going to find any support from anyone here trying to dump on bunny just in general and especially not in this context.

you think so?
some other country's people sell their calm depth keycaps in our country.
and raindrop keycaps are sold in techkey. before we received.

i don't know where you live in.
but, no one in our country people who participated in ctrl alt groupbuy think like you.

i know, some groupbuy takes so long time.
but, this situation is not so good as you feel.

and you have to know, running gb is not sacrifice.

ps.
actually, i'm not good at english.
so, i'm not sure a nuance of whate you wrote to me.

there's a big happenning in our country.
you know, about dsa dolch.

and some gb what i participated in geekhack got some problem.
so, my money is just gone.

anyway, i belive you can understand why i'm feel so bad.

i understood you well enough, and i got hosed on dolch dsa too. i just don't think it justifies giving bunny a hard time. this isn't even his GB. he took it over to help the community. i'm mostly just suggesting that perhaps you should show some more respect to bunny and his team. they're doing their best and being very transparent about it. which is more, in my experience, than can be said about a lot of group buys in the past.

It's natural to feel frustrated after waiting so long. My keycaps are going to arrive here instead of in thee UK as I had requested. Unfortunately, these things do happen especially as this GB was handed over to Bunny from someone else. Moaning won't help and I still have faith I will get my caps eventually.
