Hello this is the treeleaf
I have started a 917.2 GB.
GB form: https://forms.gle/U8qc29e4QzM5rCyW8 (https://forms.gle/U8qc29e4QzM5rCyW8)
IC thread: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=120382.0 (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=120382.0)
Discord link: https://discord.gg/rbUjtsRG6P (https://discord.gg/rbUjtsRG6P)
The demand is lacking compared to last time, so I am making reservations available. The order qty is still 25 total units, including Salzburg and Pink Pig, but it's transitioned to a pre-order + GB instead of only GB.
Pricing:
$590 for Gulf
$760 for Salzburg
There are 17 units reserved already from the Discord server: 15 Gulf, 1 Salzburg, and 1 Pink Pig.
Therefore, there are 8 units left to reserve: 6 Gulf and 2 Salzburg.
These ones can be paid for until the shipment period, but after that, price will increase.

Approved :thumb:
PSA to prospective buyers:
Group Buys are inherently risky endeavors. There is an element of risk involved with collecting payment before the item has been produced and resulting uncertainty during manufacturing / subsequent operations. We urge all GB organizers to consider (and document) these risks, and want to make it clear to all who consider purchasing that these risks are present.
If you are unfamiliar with the Group Buy model, please read this primer - Group Buy FAQ / Buying Guidelines (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=77272.0)
This PSA is new and will become standard on all Group Buys moving forward. It is not posted on this GB in isolation and is not singling this organizer out in particular as someone to be wary of.

:eek: Looks amazing, people shouldn’t sleep on this board

Small update: Keyboards are almost finished in production (Now anodizing), Carrying cases are traveling between China, I will receive by next week ! I will post picture when keyboard are done anodizing (2-3 days ?)
Thank you from the treeleaf
Slightly larger update: I will set up e commerce site so people do not have to fill out Suspicious and Ruspicious google forms to join the GB , My dad says my current approach is a Grass root approach, and there is a grassroot128 .
-
They gave me an update , anodizing will finish by next week , not this week
The carrying cases are received by manufacturer
Then I have also recorded a video
Please consider pet your Ron if he has not Received
-
5 units are left to machine , then all units will be anodized together , tomorrow will get Pictures !
Why the munition box carrying case is so big They are asking
Today I found my music SSD and now I will play Musics while waiting
And I will sit with Ron to buff listening stats

I have shipped almost everything , and I talked to people who I didn't ship to , and i will wait until next week to do that
-
intl orders arrived / arriving now , and domestic orders arriving 13 november , check discord for tracking number
extras are still open to order , you can fill out the gb form and I will charge extras pricing at 12.5% markup
-
Everyone was shipped 2-3 weeks ago, so I am changing the thread flair to "Completed"
There are still some extras available, I will hold them for the future because there is always someone who wants to buy every couple months.
Thank you participants and supporters of this group buy.

update on extras: I have put one on Ebay for auction at a significant discount over GB pricing. The 917 extras have been difficult to sell, and I don't want to wait one year to sell all the remaining units.
I figured Ebay could be a way to do small-run group buys in the future; I can use the platform to track sales, and honestly, I don't mind the fees.
