Yeah I already got my order in, it's just the invoice that I missed the payment deadline (3/8)
Shot him a pm yesterday, still waiting because clearly he's been busy now but I'm still worry
When I talked to him a couple days ago he mentioned that a lot of people missed the deadline.
I know we are still waiting for MOQ on some PCBs, so I think it should be fine if you pay now.
This GB has more of a rolling time-frame and I think the payment deadlines are more for sprit to try to guarantee interest. Since the factory will only presolder everything at specific MOQs (which sprit can't afford not to hit anymore due to how time consuming the soldering is), the drop out rate really affects his ability to deliver. The more people he can get to fully commit (aka: pay), the less risk he has on his buy.
To be fair, sprit is still figuring out a system that works for him because he has taken on a lot with this buy. He has been doing a great job and he has been delivering great quality products. The scope of what he is doing here is huge and awesome for us. He has been excellent at making sure all of his customers are happy.
In short, this buy is not a well oiled machine like what Ivan runs, but given the scope and Sprit's dedication it has been very successful.
