We're about 70% fulfilled with this GB, but unfortunately, we have to divide the pick up dates for the packages and spread them out for the USPS to pick them up, as their trucks are not big enough for the everything. - jchan

--

We're still packing the remaining ones, and everyone should have a tracking by today.

We have about 25 packages that are left, which are all international that have "address issues".

I'll try to fix those manually by referencing previous addresses, and then email people.

---

Other than that, the other packages are packed, tracking has been sent, and packages are now waiting for pickup.

The pick up will be throughout next week, as this takes up a lot of space. We've already requested that a bigger truck comes to pick these up, but we're not sure if that request will be fulfilled.

--

If you're international, and got DHL service because of your package, these will most likely go out on Tuesday.

;

Cheers. We're pretty much concluded with this GB.

Received tracking number as well.
Anyone living in Germany and knows how exactly import taxes are calculated? The only link I found is the following: http://www.zoll.de/EN/Private-individuals/Postal_consignments_internet_order/Shipments-to-Germany/Duties-and-taxes/duties-and-taxes_node.html

This should explain everything:

http://www.zoll.de/DE/Privatpersonen/Postsendungen-Internetbestellungen/Sendungen-aus-einem-Nicht-EU-Staat/Zoll-und-Steuern/Internetbestellungen/internetbestellungen_node.html

TL;DR If you paid less than 150 euro, you pay MwSt (19%) extra, if it's more then you may have to pay extra import fee that should be very small (never had to do that so not sure).

Im not sure i understand how its calculated based on that link you posted. seems too complicated to me lol(maybe cos i didnt sleep all night) im just asking in case they demand a ridiculous amount of fees and dont know what to say or present the nature and origin of goods.

Most of the domestic shipments have gone out, but there's still a good stack of 40 or so here, then it'll leak over to international shipments.

A picture of the big shipment stack would be nice. I always wondered how such a big order looks like irl

A bunch were picked up yesterday, and some today.

I'm counting 40ish packages still waiting for pick up for USPS (all international).

Edit: Domestic has all gone out.

----------------

For DHL, I dropped them off at around 1PM PST, but it was at a forwarding office, so they might take a while to get scanned (later tonight should be the latest).

PSA for italian customers regarding customs clearance.

Informazioni per gli acquirenti italiani circa lo sdoganamento.
More
Ho ricevuto email da parte di DHL in cui mi veniva chiesto, tempestivamente, copia del codice fiscale, conferma del tipo di merce in oggetto e richiesta di conferma del pagamento, al momento della consegna di IVA e dazi doganali.
Nel testo dell'email si precisava che la mancata osservazione di tali adempimenti comporterà restituzione del pacco al mittente.
Pertanto è consigliabile controllare accuratamente la casella email, includendo la cartella spam, al fine di evitare ritardi o mancanze nella consegna del pacco.

Sounds like what the paid price is? Jchan has to mark full value for laws I imagine (everyone has to, but even more so due to him being a business).

He declares what you paid for it. Pitfermi ordered two sets (and possibly addons?), which sounds about right for 19% and possibly processing fees on a 270$+ order.

hi so i received the sets and mounted the caps on a kb. i noticed that the ansi Return key and the default (6.25x i think) spacebar sit lower than any other key of their respective  rows. that is , the spacebar key travel distance is smaller than they alt, ctrl etc.  it bottoms out on the same height   , but rests lower. as for the enter key, same thing. it sits actually even lower than the spacebar key compared to the respective row keys. it doesnt feel right when pressed in all the way. travel distance is too small. anyone else has the same issue? 

pictures below. as much as it makes sense.

Hmmm. I don't quite understand. If you use MX switches, wether it be Gateron or OG Cherry, the dimensions should be all the same.

Either way, would be interesting to hear if there is an issue with your caps or not.

hi so i received the sets and mounted the caps on a kb. i noticed that the ansi Return key and the default (6.25x i think) spacebar sit lower than any other key of their respective  rows. that is , the spacebar key travel distance is smaller than they alt, ctrl etc.  it bottoms out on the same height   , but rests lower. as for the enter key, same thing. it sits actually even lower than the spacebar key compared to the respective row keys. it doesnt feel right when pressed in all the way. travel distance is too small. anyone else has the same issue? 

pictures below. as much as it makes sense.                                                                                                                   
Wow... That is really bad. I will definitely check with my sets. Picked them up earlier today. Dunno when I will have time for it though. Wife and kids are ill...

Those keys should be replaced either way imo.

im not entirely sure yet. it could be the different cherry housings stems im using. all are brown but i have to check.

Do you have a different spacebar you could try to compare? Might be a problem with the stabilizers/switch rather than the cap.

Anyone else in the US still have a "pre-shipment" status?  It has now been this way since 11/16 and I'm starting to think there is a problem.
