Thanks for the update LD! Sorry to hear you're having a rough go of things lately. Hang in there man!

Do you have a ballpark idea of ship date for US orders? How about the screw mount stabilizer delay (see my previous post please).

My condolences for your family's loss. :/

Reading your update, US orders are now going to ship ahead of international?

Still waiting patiently, hang in there!

Thanks all. I don't like garnering pity and making excuses but I'm very grateful for your kind words - I couldn't bear to look at this thread after the last update until just now but I feel much better now. Thank you.

Currently the bulk of the US orders are scheduled to be shipped by me once they arrive in two weeks (they are leaving China tomorrow), with the PCBs arriving a couple days after. PCB-mount stabilizers are here, but screw-mount is taking longer than expected.

Hey guys, I know we are all super excited for this board. I know I am! LD stated it would be 2 weeks and that was on the 31st of July, so I'm sure they are on a boat/plane as we speak and he doesn't have anything for us yet. I've ordered stuff from China and it can be pretty frustrating not knowing what is going on but that is just the reality of it. I know LD will update us the moment he hears anything :)

2 weeks to get to China... then shipping to LD in the states, then packaging and shipping out. I would wager a guess that these are probably still a month away from delivery. stay calm, everyone

According to his post the two weeks was how long they will take to get to him and I though LD was back in the states now. So it may be a bit less than a month.

Hey guys.

Cases arrived a couple days ago and I'm sorting through/assembling them. The PCBs will be arriving today but we're short on a couple due to complications w/ RGB LEDs (from what I'm told) which is being remedied ASAP but will arrive in a later shipment. We're short on about 4-5 PCBs for now, which I will either send out when I'm back in China on the 25th, or wait for the next shipment from the designer.

I'm getting pretty damn tired of the screw-mount stabilizers being delayed over and over again. I can source regular steel Cherry stabs and refund the difference (They're $10 per set so the diff is $7) if you've ordered the screw-mount stabs. Gonna be difficult to sell the screw-mount stabs afterwards since Zeal almost has his version in stock at a much faster rate, but this wait has dragged on for long enough.

Will update later in the day with pictures and more news.

Update in the OP. Almost everything for the US orders have landed safely, and I'll be shipping them out in the next couple days. If there's any change of address and such, please inform me ASAP.

Hey LD, thanks for the update. For most of the order you'll be shipping from US right?

I will be shipping out all the orders, starting with the US, and wrapping up international once I'm back in China on the 25th.

Airs dude, sorry for the slow response. I'll ship the PCB-mount stabs w/ your order and refund you the difference. Please PM me your Paypal email and I'll send it over.

I actually bought some of those in preparation for the packing and shipping, but it's quite different. The perforated rolls are filled with a lot more air and more rigid while the ones I have in mind (think they're called EPE foam sheets) are softer.

I might have to buy them from Alibaba in the future ._.

True, it is a bit of a hike. I do have a half day tomorrow though. Assuming I could make the trip would you like some help testing and sorting?

Same plan. I ship them out once I'm back in China, starting on the 25th. They should all be packed and sorted but I'll have to double check to make sure everything is sorted properly as I wasn't there.
