Just an update on the situation thus far:

My tracking has been updated to show that Seth sent out my board, along with the parts. He's been communicating openly with me on Twitter, and seems to be working hard to resolve any remaining issues.
It is great to hear you are going to receive your stuff. I hope more people get the same experience. It is never too late to set things right.

Sort of in line with what he said a while back - that he would be working in the background to get peoples' stuff out gradually.

I'm still hoping for the LEDs ...
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

?

Sent him my TGR-Jane R1 kit for assembly right around the November 2015. He responded to my request, provided his shipping address, gave me a 1st week update then vanished in December 2015.

Items that I sent him (currently in his "possession") - I put possessions in quotes only on the possible chance Seth sold my items on another forum.

  • Titanium Grey TGR-Jane R1 w/Stainless steel plate
  • Linear 65g Zealios
  • Lost time spent attempting to contact him

Thanks. I saw that posting on r/mechmarket for a Jane-R1 listed at $1200 now $850. It reminded me of a nice board I never got to use haha.

I asked Sethk to assemble my TGR Jane about a year ago. He responded and provided his mailing address. About 2 months after that he disappeared and stopped responding. I think steezyus even offered to try contact sethk to retrieve the lost Jane, but no luck there.

Mods pls, how the fk is kbdhub STILL a vendor?

He is a vendor because he has a subforum. He has a subforum so that people can still post about problems they are having with him. He cannot start anything new on geekhack. This is the only unlocked thread, so that users like dakuzo have somewhere to post.

Do you have a point you're trying to make here? Every thread in this sub, save for this one, is locked. This is the thread for discussing issues. Based on people having posted here within the last week, I'd say there's still need for it.

Had I not posted, I have a funny feeling no one would have.

My point would be there seems to be a lot of cleaning up needed on this forum (GH in general, not just kbdhub), and it honestly seems like no one wants to do anything about it.

Fair enough.

I understand how it might look that way from the outside. There are many things in the pipeline, and only so much time in a day, particularly when all the mods have jobs and responsibilities outside of GH. Sometimes things that seem simple don't end up being simple due to having to coordinate enough people for enough time to get things done properly. Doing a proper cleanup of the vendor forums (for instance) is one of those things. It's absolutely something we're working on and haven't forgotten, but it's unfortunately a more complicated process than just one person hitting a few buttons.
