[GB Check] Sanctuary Census for Sherryton

[samwisekoi]

There is some question about who and how many Sanctuary sets are still outstanding.  To help answer that question, I have created a Google Docs form where people who still are owed a set can enter their information.

I will publish summary information here, and if he wants it, pass it along to Sherryton as well.

Disclaimer:  I am only doing this to help.  I don't have any relationship with Sherryton, Originative, the Sanctuary set or anything else.  Except that I am one of the people who still is missing my set!

TL;DR Fill out this form if you paid for a Sanctuary set and don't have it yet!

thanks for doing this! but I think you might want to add the other options besides a set, ex. numpad set and gamer set.

I went ahead an asked for a refund. He said he was willing to do it, but I have yet to actually receive my money back.

<-- Is still waiting for a refund.

[OrangeJewce]

I submitted. I actually need those keys to complete my eDoxen...this is literally the only reason I am still holding out hope. Help me obi-won samwise, you're my only hope!

Mine are outstanding but supposedly shipped a MONTH ago so I added them. The tracking said they passed through a sorting facility a few days after where "send", but I don't believe that shipping from the states takes more then 3 weeks without an update from a German facility. Unless they are coming by ship (or some poor bastard swimming with the package strapped to his back), I doubt it will take 3 weeks to cross the ocean.

[Kabuks]

Just filled out the form.

[mkawa]

usps first class international can take an extremely long time. further, the usps tracker will cut off at the point of exit from the country

Just to ad to this...
I had two packages leave the same post office in China the same day within an hour of each other. According to the sellers, both were shipped the same way. One breezed through customs and took 7 days to reach me. The second (an external drive box) took a month to reach customs in Chicago, where it was returned, taking another 2 weeks. Before it got there, the seller shipped another using a different method, this time taking just 2 weeks.   Another package took 45 days to reach me between ordering, travel and customs.

It's crazy, but it happens.

[montroyal]

I am waiting for 3 base sets.

Unless you give sherry an ultimatum, I don't see what counting non-received sets will solve.

[OrangeJewce]

 If the number of people is much greater than 10 it will show that he continues to lie to us and only damage his reputation more. won't solve anything though with regards to our sets.

[Shadovved]

Well, only choices for 3 sets?

There's a GB leader (aka coordinator) for the SG orders, around 20+ sets still MIA.

More than 3k worth of caps.

Base set -27

sets for Singapore to be precise. I'll link this topic to squarebox to see if he wants to weigh in as he doesn't frequent gh very often nowadays.

[squarebox]

samwisekoi, I've filled up the form but kindly edit my entry to
Base set -27
Numpad - 21
Gamer - 13

This is a consolidated order from Singapore. The amount of stress on me is insane even though it's beyond my control.

[HolidaySHRIMP]

+1 base set from me. Filled out. Thanks!

[jil_jil32]

here still waiting for 5 base sets and few other sets... so can't fill out the gg form...

Hello Geekhackers,

I am very sorry about my disappearance.  I have been quite busy with many family troubles.  The PayPal troubles and the Credit Card troubles also gave me a bunch of headaches.
Everything with my family is getting better, and the web-site finally works better.  There are still some issues, but they will be fixed in time.
I am posting the Ski Data set this week.  I am getting 5 new springs.  Dolch and 5 new sets are being manufactured right now.  If there are problem with your
orders, then please e-mail me at sheraton@originativeco.com.
The rest of the Sanctuary keysets arrive this week.  I have to package them myself, and I will ship the rest.  I believe there are about 10 more people that has not
received them.

If you are planning to purchase from our store, then please send me an e-mail with the Order No. as the title.  In the summary, please post the shipping address and the order.

Thanks,

Sheraton

I would take his words with a grain of salt right now. That update seems like an obligatory response, but I feel there is much more that he hasn't said. He announced a lot more new products, yet still backlogged with tons of issues and transactions to take care of.

Common sense would tell you to wait until he gets all old problems resolved before throwing more money at him, which will only compound his workload.

This goes to what I said about his how much value his words hold. So predictable.

Someone's pants is on fire, and nose getting longer. That's what this thread proved. I hope you guys all get your sets one way or another.

[rayuki]

has proven time and time again he is just out for profit obviously and is flat out lying now. this is getting beyond a joke and seeing how many big orders still outstanding, ORDERS that would have contributed to this set even being produced is just a disgrace.

I dont even care about this set anymore, its the principle.

will be doing everything in my power to make sure he never has a successful business.

also, it sickens me that he is still allowed a vendor forum here.

Agreed completely. I know it is difficult to stay away from things you really want, but you really should wait til there has been proof on the forums that his presence has returned and that he's actually completing transactions fully. Currently offering new items doesn't matter if you're not going to get them, like all of these people waiting for their sets, refunds, or other items.

Don't worry, I'm sure if you're from Korea he'll find a way for you to get your sets months before anyone else.

What about the others missed? I am missing 3 DS RGB sets on oringnative.

[tinlong117]

[samwisekoi]

oh wow sherry, you got **** loads of stuff to handle like family matters, paypal ****s, credit card trouble, etc bull****..... but your facebook said you went to hawaii on middle of the april.. 

[samwisekoi]

OP #2 updated.  14 people registered so far, including jil_jil32.

If you are missing >3 of anything, register and post the real number here and I'll update the form.  (Including you, jil_jil32.)

Remember, I have not validated anything, nor do I have any connection with Sherryton or Originative beyond wanting my keycaps.  However, if he or someone from Originative contacts me via PM or through one of the GH mods/admins, I will make the census information available to them for fulfillment purposes.

(Heck, if they ask nicely, provide the sets and fund the effort, I might ship the Sanctuary sets out with the Retro DSA sets.)

Anyhow.  That is the update.  14 of the "ten" people have registered so far.

Thanks, my order:

Base set -5
Numpad - 2
Gamer - 3

Someone give megaforce93 a few extra Internet credits for having a no-BS sig.  Nice.

[jonnybastard]

Form filled for what its worth.. still waiting for a couple of sets from this clown.

[samwisekoi]

OP here.

Sorry guys, but this thread went off on an unpleasant and off-topic tangent this morning, so I pruned it.  No offense intended, and this is not a comment on the tangent, but I am just trying to get a census here.

There already is a thread for commentary on the GB, and I suppose you all could take that topic up there.

But this is my thread, see, and there will be no such goings-on here. </cagney>

 Anyhow, sorry if this annoyed anyone, but thread-cleaning has been done.

ok fair enough if you dont want discussions here just keep it to a "count" nps.

however i dont see how any of it was offtopic since it was all related to this incident.

anyway, at least we know it was more then the 10 he stated, and that many sets is a bit more then i expected to still be waiting.

[TDub]

Can you remove me from the list please? Mine arrived today. Apparently no one bothered with tracking information once it left the states...

There's no tracking with "cheap" international shipping from the US.

Just out of curiosity, would you make a public version that doesn't have private information be available? It's sad that it has to come down to this and although it feels like in alot of ways Sherryton has been exposed a bit, I feel it is owed to our community to really see how this pans out.

Good news from Sherry, from his website:
"I have introduced a few new products ranging from keyset to springs.  I am sorry for all the inconvenience I have caused everyone.  Most of the things have been fixed.  If you are missing any keys, then please send me an e-mail with the order no. at sheraton@originativeco.com. The sanctuary keyset was in South Korea until they shipped it back on Tuesday.  ALL of them will go out on Monday and Tuesday.  More products are going to be available soon.  4 new sets of PBT Dye Sublimation, 2 new sets of Double-Shot, 4 sets from IMSTO, a few novelty keys, and some rarer springs.  Thanks for all the patience, and thank you for continuing staying with us.  I will do another contest with the new keycap sets"

But i'll believe it when I have my keys in hand..

I was just curious about the final totals of keys missing. This is one the more botched group buys.

I don't even remember when I submitted my order. It's been a long time. Can anyone tell me when we got the invoice for this group buy?
