As the 65% version is now wrapped up, it's finally time for 80 WKL! The price is not cheap, we ran the numbers and with material and electricity cost rising, and the fact that the total machine time per board is about 3 hours (1h45m for the weight alone!) means there's quite a lot of effort going into getting this made. Also keep in mind that it includes German VAT by default, when the shipping country is set to outside of the EU the VAT will be dropped, so you are not double charged upon import into your country.

Shipping estimate:
Everything wrapped up by end of August 2023, fulfillment will be in batches, based on color. Salvun is in Belgium so logistics are easier and I don't have to wait for everything to complete first.
Limits:
7 days or if 1,000 units are hit (just a safeguard).
Alexotos has also scheduled a build stream for tonight (19th August, launch day), I'll link the VOD later on when it's available.
Let me know if you have any questions!

I really like the Red and Blue colors from Salvun (technically his anodizer), they pop really nice. I'm not opposed to offering Winkey in a future round, but I'll return to 6X% range after this one first.
