Have asked but unfortunately not a lot of updates from vendors so I have nothing to report.

Looks like everything is close to hitting MOQ naturally other than CMYW (currently reported @ 114/250 with outdated numbers).

You've made your hate boner for R5 very clear throughout this thread; you are welcome to purchase alternatives. I'd appreciate if you didn't promote them on this GB thread and kept it on topic.
We are proud of the kitting decisions made in this GB and consider it a success.

Last day to purchase ya'll!

Criminal - CMYW is the most essential of all these essential kits.

Only you can weigh how likely you are to regret vs your tolerance to spend money, but from where I'm sitting it looks like you're well on your way to regretting not buying it.

Extras for calculations, not for sale. That said, plenty of vendors sell extras before shipping and have done so for years.

Remember, if you really wanted it…you’d have already bought it.

We should be in a position to chargeback as it’s been about 3 months since the GB closed. I think most credit card companies allow chargebacks within a 6 month window from the date of transaction

Thanks for the transparency, ankit. Not your fault- this sucks for all of us.

If we're able to get the money back and still want in on the GB, do you have any plans to offer an alt US vendor?

Maybe DeskHero as for CAN? They've had great service and reasonable shipping to USA, in my experiences with them.

@ Anyone seeking a refund for the M&C-- the limit for "merchandise not received" chargeback is 540 days for Visa/MasterCard. 120 for Amex/Discover.

Edit: Realized it's ApexK for CAN- no experience w them but maybe great too.

How are you explaining the charge back to the credit card companies? I hate to confuse them more and use terms like "groupbuy" or anything else that may complicate the matter. I'm finding difficulty explaining it. Merchant did not go under yet and making promises of resolution and fulfillment is technically not past due. Any suggestions on verbiage?

If you previously had a GB order with Mechs & Co but still want your sets of GMK WoB Essentials, please email support@oblotzky.industries with a screenshot of your order confirmation. Oblotzky is offering to recreate Mechs & Co orders at GB pricing for Mechs & Co customers while supplies last
