Post by: slueth on Fri, 06 January 2012, 04:56:46
Guys start buying up all the old stock of Leopolds so I can get my hands on a the next model. WITH PBT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  
Looks like Brian still has a whole bunch of keyboards to sell before he gets his hands on the PBT ones.

Posting begging people to buy the remaining stock of 200's from EK is not a good move as I have talked to EK already, and they have 0 plans for carrying the 700 at this time. It is not due to their levels of stock, but availability of the 700's that are not even on sale in Korea yet.

Don't believe me, check the leopold site. They are priced at 0 won with a notify me when available button. They also have a date that if google translated it correctly of not being for sale till late April.

You can't. But if you could, it would be on http://www.leopold.co.kr/.

A group buy would be really good when it becomes available.

Do you have experience in this matter, ripster?

Also, I'd vote for you if the text in your sig wasn't comic sans.

On topic: Do you think a group buy is feasible? I don't know enough about the availability of these keyboards to even guess.

Shows reading comp of a lot of people here. The availability is 0 as they have not been released yet and are listed on the site currently as an April release.

I meant when it does get released, if it's going to be a limited thing like the anniversary edition of the Realforce or will it be a streamlined product like the fc200r.

It's nice to see you assuming that everybody is stupid or lesser than you, though.

No, it is just nice to see people putting me above them intellectually. Because it is obvious when you follow the information of the board that it is not a limited edition, but an upgraded model of their previous fc200 boards just as the fc500 that came out last year was an upgrade to the fc300 that was the original 104 board from leopold.

So before you want to make a stupid comment that I should not assume people are stupid or lesser then me, maybe you should read and not place yourself there.

You can vote for me now.

LOL, at least it is not as bad as it was before. Harder to read though.

This piken guy sounds like the other guy in the thread about fixing ping. He had the exact same case of superiority complex. He was running some kind of big medicine type company I heard?

Also, I don't consider you intellectually superior. That's some massive projecting.
However, I do think you're an *******. It's amazing how you seized the opportunity to take a jab at my intellectual capacity when I was merely asking one simple question.

No mentioning of availability. Only that EK won't stock them anytime soon.

Sorry OP for derailing the thread.
