Kin is busy so I will start sending out emails w tracking manually.

Anything that were ordered in Jan and later will be shipped later from kin. They are not included in this batch :thumb:

This is mostly just TX bags orders from November  :thumb:

Thanks for staying on top of this! Should I be concerned if I'm a US November/Pre-January bag order and don't have my tracking yet or are you still working on those?

It’s not done yet. I still have at least 30 more orders to pack. I did send kin all the trackings I have so far to update on Paypal but I guess it’s faster for me to send out emails manually lol! If you are so nervous feel free to pm me your name/paypal so I can check right now.

Hi all, I ran out of boxes so there will only be 8 orders going out today. The rain doesn’t help either. Only 18 bag orders + 25 board orders left. Please be patient. I expect ALL of these to be fulfilled this week.

popkorn62 has been so great with these frequent updates.  just a model of getting it done.   Thanks!
I hope the Canadian buyers get some good news too from their proxy.

He only sent me the exact number of bags to fulfill orders this time. I am not sure if I will restock bags anytime soon. Each box only fits 12-14 bags. It doesn’t make sense to send only a few boxes but then receiving so many at the same time takes up so much space (ea box is 30x28x18).

P/S: apologies to anyone who I sent out tracking last night. The rain was so heavy I couldn’t get them to USPS and FedEx...will definitely get those and a few more orders out tomorrow.

For Canadian buyers:

UPS attempted 2 deliveries and failed. Today, CAN proxy tried to pick them up but UPS did not keep the shipment in their warehouse. Instead, UPS gave her another address to go to.

Edit: Canadian proxy has received all the boxes!

Okay so I called UPS earlier this week and learned that they didn't even import the shipment but merely did the domestic transport from Nürnberg to my place. This means they will NOT invoice me.

Who ever has been importing this to Germany handed the stuff over to UPS in Nürnberg. Couldn't figure out who it was and I still don't have any mail regarding that. And after talking to Kin, it seems there is the possibility that he already paid for customs when he shipped this stuff to Germany so this is another possibility.

I decided to no longer delay the distribution of this stuff and simply incoice shipping only to the participants. Tonight I will prepare the shipping cost update and send out an email to all participants.

In previous shipments I have gotten customs invoices aftert 4-6 weeks too so I hope you all understand I am taking a big risk here and should I receive such an invoice later, I am counting on all participants to pay their customs share even after receiving their shipments. Let's see how that goes  :))

Great news and thank you for having faith in us! For the antique orders we all paid 100USD per board, did Kin hand that money to you? We are supposed to get the difference refunded. If you want, keep my money for a few weeks as insurance for customs.

Looking forward to the boards!  :cool:

Good news! Btw, did all the phone numbers get mangled in the mails you sent out? That could be an issue in case you ship via DHL Express.

Any word when Kin is going to refund us the shipping difference, Popkorn? This would be for US orders.

Received my bags and parts today, very nicely packed with each bag in its own box. Do wish I ordered some springs though

I’ll know for sure by the end of this week if i have any extra spring boxes

Would love to grab some extra springs, I didn't realize they were rated at bottom out instead of actuation, and all these springs I got are too light :(

Okay there's some good news and some bad news.

Good news is that I am shipping a pretty substantial batch today:

And some of the kits I am proxying:


The bad news is that I won't be shipping anything else until end of next week.

The shipped orders are mostly large, paid, uncomplicated orders. Same applies for kits. Combined orders and complicated orders will be shipped later because I certainly don't want to do those in a rush.

Would like to know as well.

BTW in case anyone is curious how they are: The 60g springs are very consistent throughout the stroke, like a Gateron Yellow with a "flat" force curve. Whereas Sprit is light at the top and heavy at the bottom, with a "steep" force curve.

Hi all, all US bag orders were shipped except 1 order. I have already contacted the buyer to explain the situation. If I forgot to send you a tracking, please send an email to txkeyboards@gmail.com.

The lube comes with the spring is paraffin synthetic oil kin ordered from a specific factory so it’s not associated with any brands.
