I have never been to OCN and I assume you are referring to overclock.net.

The op explained himself well and even contacted me directly regarding it so I have no problem with him. I just don't feel like his henchmen have to come and gang up on me aka KDZ and dracaXL (i think).

If I have a problem with pricing, there is no need for others to get involved. Regarding, I should have pm'ed instead of posting, but I was in a lethargic mood and I was already reading the post so decided to quick reply.

now back to threadcrapping, go!

If you don't think the price is fair, then don't post anything. Nothing wrong with the guy wanting a little profit for his efforts. Plus, shipping around the US will end up being a bit more expensive than he originally expected (the USPS estimated price vs actual price) so that profit will probably end up being a buffer against later losses.

On the other hand, you can be a fool like me and rely on a website that estimates shipping incorrectly.

I'll just throw in my $.02 and say that the PLU is one of the most underrated boards around IMHO. Even for $100+ it is very well worth it IF you don't need the 1000KRO that others offer.

How much would it cost to ship this to Malaysia?
Where do you ship from anyway.

"umad?"

Your posts were far more irritating than my rather reasoned response. I actually took the time to get a quote from Obook in buying the Plu, so I'm perhaps better positioned than yourself to critique the pricing. Further, it is my decision, not yours (hint: lose the arrogant presumptuousness) as to whether I post in response to you or not. Get off yer pegasus?

Hi,

I ordered a board from weipim, he was a pleasure to deal with and I did receive my keyboard in good shape. The package was shipped fast and everything looks good.

Really happy with my new keyboard and wish everyone that deal with weipim the same experience as I had.

Glad I could get in on this, 80 shipped seems like a good deal for my first mechanical.

I don't know why updates have been so sparse, but I did email weipim on the 3rd, and he basically said they were still in transit and hopefully would be there within the next week.

arnoldus · « **Reply #74 on:** Fri, 06 May 2011, 10:34:33 »

Just wait until he receives the shipment and see if he has anything left over or if someone changes their mind and sell it to you instead.

Hey weipim could we get an update sometime soon?

reaper · « **Reply #78 on:** Tue, 17 May 2011, 00:09:22 »

Last I heard he was still waiting for the shipment to reach west coast (it was sent via EMS shipping by sea which is probably the least expensive option).

dunno why he doesnt post in the thread much but he does reply to pms. i asked what was up on friday and

Hey man, I am still waiting on the shipment, it has been like almost 3 weeks it was shipped from china and should arrive to the westcoast any time soon. I am as impatient as you and sorry for this delay. I will keep you posted if there is any breaking news. Thanks for understanding

Weipim

Yeah here's the last reply I got:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey there, I am still waiting for the shipment as well as you guys are. it has not arrived to US yet since it's by sea.

I will keep you guys updates asap.

sorry for the delay.

but don't worry I will get them eventually and ship them to you guys asap

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

so I'll assume that the shipping company is just terribly lazy at this point.

pm_ · « **Reply #81 on:** Wed, 18 May 2011, 10:51:35 »

I'm not in on this order, but when I got a quote for a Choc Mini, the Taobao agent said EMS shipping is hard to predict and indicated 2 weeks would be a best case scenario, but it could just as easily take 4 weeks. There was someone else who ordered one via EMS around Christmas, and I think that took around 4 weeks.

Thought I'd mention that as it might allay some of the worry. Hopefully he gets it in the next week or so.

BababooeyHTJ · « **Reply #82 on:** Thu, 19 May 2011, 14:58:50 »

If there happen to be any extras or anyone wants to back out. I would be interested in a board.

Tempy · « **Reply #83 on:** Thu, 19 May 2011, 15:36:22 »

last time i checked wei said thwere was an extra white with black switches for grabs

BababooeyHTJ · « **Reply #84 on:** Thu, 19 May 2011, 19:39:06 »

Yeah, I sent him a pm. Sadly blacks just aren't for me. I was hoping for a board with blues or browns.

weipim · « **Reply #85 on:** Thu, 26 May 2011, 18:32:35 »

To all that's waiting for the keyboards, I am absolutely sorry about this huge delay. In fact, I just had my buddy called EMS and they told me the estimated shipping time was 45 days instead of 30(original).
I am really sorry for this but im waiting for them as inpatient as you guys are. I will give you some update asap. thanks for the comprehension.

I added this to the original post also

reaper · « **Reply #86 on:** Thu, 26 May 2011, 21:56:34 »

Thanks for the update and we know it isn't your fault. Personally I'd never liked the shipping companies much especially when they fail to deliver within expected timeframe.

ClosedBSD · « **Reply #87 on:** Tue, 07 June 2011, 14:10:50 »

Well, it's been nearly 45 days since the ship date, is there any new word on this?
