Did all the invoice go out? I'm asking because your last post made it sound like it is the case however I didn't get mine.
I believe he is slowly working through them.  He has said that he has been having ISP issues lately, so it is most likely taking longer than normal.


yeah after reading his post again, I figured I misinterpreted it the first I read. My bad, I was just afraid I was forgotten. :)

I'm still waiting on mine too. I'd assume he's going through them in order, so I'll probably be one of the last to get my invoice.
Sorry, actually just went through the CONUS orders first, now I'll go through the international orders cause I have to get estimates for all of em


No worries, thank you for the update. I just misinterpreted your post and I thought you had done all of them already.


So what did the final numbers end up looking like?
32 orders total, basically everyone bought a mid piece too :p


Perhaps a milky mid piece would have gotten even more success!  :p


Just teasing you. ;)

Alright, here's the part where I get to spend a year or so pulling together parts for my dream build. This is going to suck/be pretty awesome!

Sounds like you're all set then! Be sure to share pictures once you get everything put together since it sounds like it won't take long for ya. :D

I have about 50 Gaterons left which is just shy of enough for a 60%, not enough 62g springs left for another board, and I plan to go PCB hunting a little later on, waiting to see if an RGB option will ever open up. :) Stabs, springs, caps, and PCBs are all on the menu for me. Oh, and those little aluminum bumpons from TaoBao.

All for carbon fiber love!

Paid! I'll also be using the gaterons I got from the last GB.

And I think this and Ivan's black on black pbt were made for each other.

Have all the invoices gone out yet? I still don't appear to have one, and payment was supposed to be due by tomorrow.

I suppose it should be obvious to most who know their way around plates and stabs, but I just wanted to let everyone who was planning on using this with the Infinity know that this case won't support the plate-mounted stabs that the Infinity requires. So pretty much, you'll have to glue/epoxy those stabs to the PCB. :P

Or you can just get a GON NERD 60 PCB and use the same layout since it does indeed have the option for the same layout the Infinity uses!

All correction invoices have been sent out. BBS only was able to lower the acrylic price a bit. Sorry to everyone in this, it's unacceptable to have this happen mid buy, but I just ask for your understanding so we can get this buy rolling and finally see all these cases. The invoices are due the 18th giving everyone ample time to pay, but the sooner everyone does, the sooner everyone gets cases :thumb:

invoice paid but I didn't understand that both the price of the case and the mid case were raised. That's pity indeed. Nevermind still looking for that case to arrive. Thanks for your work Hwood.

Well I was trying to get the acrylic down to the original estimate but I could only lower it a tiny bit unfortunately.

But another heads up, because of problems on their end, the cases won't be completed for 5-6 weeks. So probably my last time using Big Blue Saw

Hwood, this stinks and we're disappointed but it's not your fault.  Paid my invoice.

Yeah, definitely not something you could have controlled, so I understand.
