All GB orders have been shipped out. US orders were shipped yesterday via USPS Priority. They should all arrive on the 14th or 15th. That concludes this long, long GB. If your case arrived w/ a cracked acrylic layer, shoot me a PM. I have a couple extras and can cut more as needed.
Arrived at the warehouse and currently being processed and sorted.
Finally en route to the warehouse.
Waiting for another box of misc parts to arrive. Then I can commence with fulfilling this buy.
Everything is en route to me. See

Same old news. Me pushing for production and factory sitting on their butts doing who knows what. I'll update when I get word on what's up.

Delays arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh. I'm pushing for production to wrap up but anodizing for our batch isn't finished yet.

Running into some unforeseen but not unexpected delays on shipping to me. Timeframe is delayed by a week or two, but there are no major issues. Seems like our production batch was separate from the Chinese GB after all, possibly due to the volume of our order.

Checking in. Not dead yet, but also no news. We're getting close.

Plate changes all went through okay and production for those is underway. ETA for TriC production on my end is before the 20th, and plates should arrive at around the same time. As always, there may be hiccups that will disrupt the timeframe.

There are plate changes. If you've ordered a plate, you should've received an email w/ the details of the changes.
If you've ordered a plate, you must fill out this form:

Placed all orders and production has commenced. Several orders remain unpaid. Some are arranged to be so, but I'm not holding out much hope for the others as the buyers have not responded to my numerous PMs and emails. I will likely attempt to sell those spots before shipping commences. The cases are expected to finish production and be shipped before the end of June, so we're moving along at a nice and brisk pace.
As for the plates - the factory is a no-go. The base cost to get a plate made at the factory is 200 RMB, and that's not including anodizing. I will source universal 60% plates elsewhere for the price I charged, which was $15. A group email will be sent out shortly for those who have ordered a plate regarding color options and/or a refund for that, as the plate colors will no longer match the case.

Payment deadline has passed. I have sent a reminder via PM to the relevant individuals who I don't think have contacted me but placed an order.

Thanks everyone, we have a decent number of orders (29, which made the designer really happy). The GB will conclude 16 hours from the time of this edit, at noon of Eastern Standard Time.
Invoices will be going out shortly, and the deadline for making payments is on 5/17/2016 (although if you have a strenuous circumstance and can't make the deadline, just PM me), also Eastern Standard Time, as it would be noon here which makes things easier on me.
Same day update: All current invoices/requests for payment sent. Heading to bed.
GB closes on 5/11/2016. You will not be invoiced immediately upon order submission, but collectively at/near the end of the GB.
Domestic payments accepted via Dwolla.
. Stripe **strongly** preferred. Use the linked website to pay via Stripe, but also fill out the order form.
for details regarding the items, although certain info may be outdated (like prices and colors).
Actual color samples *should be* coming later, but the color renders are pretty accurate.
