Can you explain the Optional Mounting Points. Can you put on more than the two that comes with it? Like why would we want to buy more is my question.
There is no point in buying more. It’s just to have extra parts available for people.

Not this round. It was originally limited to R3.

May I ask if the pricing for the limited edition (currently 9999 USD) is the correct pricing? or is it just a place holder for now?
It is updated now. That was a placeholder price ;D ;D ;D

Post by: LeandreN on Thu, 26 March 2020, 16:26:03
I have a Fjell from R3, and I love it. If I had a little more disposable income, I'd gladly by a second. Hoping for a future R6+ when it lines up with my savings.

8 hours left to get one! If you want one, get one now.
I will be closing then, due to a large amount of interest(and orders).
Klippe will still be available after that.
Post by: cigs_coffee on Fri, 27 March 2020, 15:03:52
...(and a more EU-friendly launch time!)I concur. Had the alarm clock set for rose. It went off, I switched it off, mumbled f*** it and turned around continued sleeping. Like the board a lot, love the rose gold colour scheme but somehow can't be arsed for this kind of time frame anymore.

Packaging material has arrived.
Post by: LeandreN on Sun, 05 July 2020, 08:47:00
The entire month of August will be used for quality control and shipments aswell.
Some orders might have to ship in September, due to the large amount, our goal is still to have everything out in August.

This will be a long process with production, qc and shipments at the same time.
It's random which order they are sent, and don't expect orders to be out before late August for most of you.
Thanks for your patience.
Post by: LeandreN on Tue, 28 July 2020, 09:48:35
- give me feedback directly on the packaging and product
- take some cool pictures
- share your unboxing to Instagram/twitter/reddit/geekhack/keebtalk and tag me there.
Around 2% of the orders have shipped as of now.
During August, all orders should have been shipped, there is no point asking when your order will ship before September 1st.
