The 7v is taking 6 months longer than any other boards to make.
looks like someone here never bought a RAMA board. lol.
jokes aside, this was the first big unlimited group buy, as far as i know. it probably sold at least 1000 units (some people think it was closer to 2k) and had a PVD weight option. PVD always adds time since it's a nightmare to QC. do NOT compare it to 200 keyboard group buys
also, just because a group buy is promising a 6 month turn around time, doesn't mean it will happen. and given the current situation, it probably wont even if the runner is not. i'm pretty sure that there are GB runners that know they will need more time but are not saying anything yet because they don't want to stir the mob, which is essentially want the mech community has become with the influx of the covid hobbyists.
ANYWAY, the reason i popped in here was to say that after looking at the GB again, i wish i had picked up a PVD weight :/
now i'll probably have to shell out 2x-3x as much on it if i really want it. i got a white and blue board. while the blue board will look better with the silver weight, the white would probably need a PVD weight to really shine.
