Did the Leopold factory burn down
« on: Fri, 09 November 2018, 12:44:40 »
I noticed the supply of Leopold keyboards almost completely dried up in the last couple months. This was right after they allegedly moved production to a new facility. Anybody know what happened? For a company to totally stop shipping product, it must have been something serious. :-X

I know the FC660c has shot waaaaaaay up in price due to shortages.

I'm also seeing a scarcity and high aftermarket value. Just as I was hoping to buy a 660C. =/

Did something actually happen? Maybe it's just the supposed transition?

Something definitely happened. Assuming it's true what people said about them switching the location of their factory, it seems likely there was a ~big problem~.
