So ended up only being 16 keyboards total, But if you have paid you are fine. Normally I would volunteer my spot but there are still 2 people who haven't paid and I doubt I can get more. So please reply to my PM one of you! ALSO if you would like to volunteer and trade your G80 for 2 G81's and are CONUS I could do that as well. Thanks

Do you have an estimation about the shipping to EU?

Yeah, everyone always asks about international shipping, but it's almost impossible to give an accurate estimate without having the item in-hand, and packaged exactly how you will send them. Everything depends on weight and distance, and which type of shipping service you use. I just sent a G80-2551 to S. Korea via EMS, and it cost me $59, and that's with the $5 online discount. Weight of the package was 4 lbs 6 oz, but I had originally estimated 6-7 pounds, so the price would have been $75-85. UPS and FedEx each wanted about $200 for the same thing.

It can be cheaper to use First Class mail, but no tracking is available.

I found out recently that the weight limit for first class is 4 lbs.  Very frustrating when your package is 4 lbs 0.5 oz. :yell:

Based on my experience with US Postal Service, and having a good idea of the size and weight of the package, I would guess somewhere in the $45-60 range.

Same here. I repackaged it yet again for it to work.

Also, First class mail comes with a customs number which should be able to be used for tracking.

Does anyone have a link to the software used to program these?

I wish fedex shipped on the weekend :-(

Boards should be here Monday; Should get most of them done that night. Check your paypal for tracking info if you are CONUS. International buyers I will be sending you shipping invoices once I get the boards in hand.

These are good boards, I sold about 30-40 of them a few years ago.  The only complaint anyone ever had was flex since it's a long board that's PCB mounted (at least the ones I sold were) but it was tolerable.  I used one for a couple of months.  Finding NOS cherry with doubleshots and brown MX in ANSI is tough.  Good score.

I'm loving the shipping notification I got. Good thing I have PBT, or my F5 key would wear out!

It'd really be awesome if I could bring this to work, but right now it's planned for use on my desktop for video watching and light gaming. Hopefully it'll fit well so I don't have to make room.

Now it's time to familiarize myself with cherry tools.

No for international I am currently trying to get a hold of more boxes that will fit the boards in but not be too huge. Just trying to get the shipping price is as low as possible.

Aren't those game board flat-rate boxes under $40 for international shipping?
I'm so excited! I'm thinking of maybe selling the keycaps off it, and using it with the used doubleshots I have.

Mine will hopefully arrive soon.

Unfortunately, no. :( I was going to use one of those when I shipped a G80-2551 to Korea, but for the same price ($61) I was able to pack it in the original box and send it via EMS at the post office. UPS and FedEx each wanted about $200.

If you are in the United States and ordered only 1 keyboard from me total your paypal should be updated; they will go out tomorrow. If you ordered more than 1 total your tracking will provided tomorrow as I am picking up some larger boxes in the morning. International buyers expect an invoice from me within 24 hours. My goal here is to have every board out by Thursday.

Ok so with the last packages I sent out that were not getting updated; I called fedex today and they have been holding the packages due them being wrapped in brown shipping paper. Something about it gets stuck and can rip in their machines. Don't ask me why they decided to pull these 5 or 6 as all the others were wrapped the same exact way. So Demik, bossborot, dangwang and 2 others I will be picking up from their office this afternoon and should have an update of what is going on.

Thinking of refunding the rest of my account with fedex and going with usps as this is retarded...

USPS is far cheaper and has been really quick for me. I would consider them, too.

Normally it would be, But my work has an account and got somewhat of a discount. Also the shipping was flat rate; the only reason I have been shipping the g81's complete. No one wants MY boards lol I just didn't have to pull keys
