Can anyone tell me when these are going to be back? I need one asap and I don't really want to settle on a Leopold...

Problem is, if you buy through their site you get screwed on exchange rate. It's like 30-40 dollars more than it would be on the Amazon page with shipping.

So, I just got out of my 3.5 hour night class at 9pm and I've been running on no sleep from the night before because I was up doing a case study for a different class and wasting way too much time trying to find a decently priced Filco Ninja 104 with Browns. Needless to say, the last 30-ish hours have been unpleasant. Well, I walk up to my apartment and go inside, sit down on my computer. There's a few tabs open, I start to close them. Then I realize theres a tab with the amazon page for the keyboard I'm trying to find. I decide to feed my little nerd fantasy that maybe it will be in stock even though I know it wont, by refreshing the page.

Available "1 left, order soon!"


My day went from **** to awesome in like 2 seconds.
I don't know what happened or how this is even possible, but somehow I just fell in love with TKBCo whether they are responsible or not :P


It's on it's way as soon as amazon decides to ship it :)

Hahaha
Any idea how that happened? Did Amazon just find one in the warehouse that they'd missed or something? Maybe it's a return? Seems weird to me XD
But Hooray!

I think you may have caught the tail end of some top up stock.
There was a limited amount of Ninja in the last shipment and a lot sold over about 48 hrs.
