I had experience in handling ~30*$400+ orders. And i had no problem with the money withdraw. When then incoming fund reaches certain limit, paypal will prompt you to submit your personal details... to get your account verified or something. Sometimes paypal will also call you to ask about the transactions and also to offer you a better paypal rate for the following month.

Perhaps you can send out the invoices by stages. Let me know if you need any help with running the groupbuy.

Stage method sounds right for me.
Thanks my friend.

The important part, repeated here:

Only accept money paid for a service. This is really important. Reject any payments that are marked as being paid for purchased goods. If you look in PayPal at the transaction and see a drop-down list where you can mark the payment as shipped, reject the payment.

Thanks!
it's a big help!
"payment for service", I'll check on that!

I participated in a GB a while ago (HKP if I'm not mistaking) that had this way of processing payments. Alternatively, you can do what 7bit does for switches: Get other people to collect with e.g. google wallet and transfer the money to you.

Thanks!

There has been a pot of progress since I last checked this thread!
I'm glad that the group buy has become larger so I might be able to get in.
Maybe I should turn on notifications for this thread.

The PCB has the mounting holes, so you can use either.

You may use plate or PCB mounted switch housings, but due to limitations with the housing you must mount the switches on the plate.

Announcement from VE.A team.

We are setting up GB in official form.
We established company to make sure about tax and money related issues and etc.
Still it's rather a gathering of hobbiest than a coperation.
If things going with schedule. We can open GB within a month.
It's a little late than I said earlier but I really want to make this thing right, so nobody who interested wouldn't be left unattended.
Thanks for waiting geeks.
Really appriciated. ;)

If you are setting up a company and you're exporting do you still need to pay sales tax? Most countries don't charge sales tax for goods they are exporting.

As I know, part of taxes will be returned after reporting sales detail.
We are learning how to report our sales to tax office.

Isn't the Digilog more of a brown, though? At least, that's how looks in most pics.

I would buy one at $300 for sure, and I still don't even know how I feel about a split layout.
