Biniaris has my money, but hasn't been in contact with 7bit to give him the money and say whos paid... Which means no switches for Ed 'till Biniaris comes out of hiding...

So worst case, what if he took the money and ran? Paypal disputes?

7bit should call him up and tell him to get his ass in gear. We all want our switches that we already paid for months ago damnit!

I don't think I'd open a paypal dispute unless even 7bit thinks he ran. And if he did run I hope 7bit will still send me my switches.

With his feedback score it seems highly unlikely he ran. But come on, how hard could it be to send 7bit the money and paid list? Even the busiest person has some spare time...

Isn't there a time limit on how long you can file a dispute? I understand he may be busy, but even a 2 minute "hey, I have the money but am really busy for X days" would suffice.

Or rather, not organize in the first place if he/she does not have sufficient time.

I got the list and will send out spam later today.

He told us he had to remove the chads inside the holes (10000 of them), so this kept him busy for a while.

The invoice I got contained the extras in it, which are marked as DO NOT PAY.

So I adjusted the price, I hope I didn't make a mistake xD.

"*NOT*" with asterisks seems like a double negative to me. Although these asterisks may just be placeholders instead of a negative.

Yes, this is right! I was too lazy to program something for these. Currently, there are not enough orders for these.

This isn't really closed, they are left overs.

But there are no MX clear leftovers. But you can preorder some, and as soon as this GB gets to 800 MX switchs, 7bit will order some.

But he might redo it, to include PCB mounted switchs.

There might be a lot of interest in another switch GB as the Ergo keyboard project comes to a head. Guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Also, did you already ship my package, or can I still add the few white switch I added.

Do I pay up the difference, or can I pay more and transfer it to the next GB. I don't think it's worth it to make an IBAN transfer for a few bucks xD

Where is Biniaris ? I paid my invoice back in March 8, but received a duplicate invoice last week. Sent you (7bit) and Biniaris, a few days ago, the paypal email verifying my payment transaction, but didn't hear from him yet though.
Please confirm that I will receive my switches, and that I do not owe any money. Thanks!

My assumption was that they were sorting this and the Phantom stuff at Bini's place this weekend, though I don't know for sure.

My hope is that it'll all come together soon, so I can happily solder my Phantom. mmmm.
