tinlong117, what kind of connection do you have with Vortex? It seems recently that a lot of stuff you and feng are offering are from vortex, so perhaps before getting more new stuff, you can pass on the word for them to resolve some other issues with their products first? Namely the poker GB that imav ran. I'm not sure on the updates with that but it seems like vortex burned imav and a lot of people from that GB. I also recently reviewed one of their aluminum cases, and the amount of problems it has surprised me a bit that they actually let all the problems go through to production phase.

I'm looking to pick up another poker but hesitant right now.

Is it the same version of the poker as the model in the link below, or a new model/version or something?  What is the purpose of a GB for something that's readily available?  I'm just curious as to if I'm overlooking something?

I would like a Poker with MX Blues. I should be able to have funds available next paycheck coming up. Maybe xmas, if not then, Thursday or Friday.

Quick question, the uninsured delivery, is it DHL? if it is, I will probably want to do EMS.

Hi,
If MX Brown is not available, I choose MX Red please!
Title: Re: Poker Round v2
Post by: tinlong117 on Mon, 14 January 2013, 04:21:35
some updates :)
the quantity of this GB is limited to 10 reds and 10 blues (If you are located in the states, please buy it from mechanicalkeyboards.com because they will provide cheaper shipping to you. But anyway, it's still your choice) due to the stress I have. Sorry guys. However, the ETA will be delayed (typical vortex stuff), the NEW ETA is around late Feb to early Mar. I will end this groupbuy if vortex delay the ETA again.
Title: Re: Poker Round v2
Post by: Gupgup on Mon, 14 January 2013, 17:54:31
Put me down for one with reds! (just stating again if need be, I have earlier post also) :p

I'm interested in GB layout with Reds.
I'm based in Ireland

Is there any pictures to give me an indication of what is being sold here? I'm looking for a poker keyboard but it appears you can get a vast array of types.

Thanks,

In Malaysia, they just did a groupbuy of 20 poker for about 60$ each shipped. How is that yours are 20 as well but costs 100-110 and still needs to pay for shipping? And you tried to pick on shadovved on how he ripped everyone off on those cherry stickers? Aren't you the same yourself?

heh, than why don't you go to malaysia and buy it? By the way, my price is shipped and the supplier will Fück me if I sell them on a low price. And well, I'll have a great loss like 30 usd each board if I sell them on 60. I do respect you and your work, because they look nice and I thought you're a good man.

P.S. I threadcrapped shadovved's thread because I do hate him, see what he did to the coummunity?  Always reply with meaningless comment and smiley. I'm sure that more than half of his reply is bull**** and meaningness.

P.S.2 I may end this groupbuy soon due to no respond from Vortex. And you guys can buy pokers on www.mechanicalkeyboards.com they will stock them soon. So, people outside US who want to have a poker, I'm sorry that you can't own  a poker with a acceptable shipping cost.

lol you didn't even try to sugarcoat it. Meaningless comments is not  really a reason why you should HATE someone. If you think about it, majority of posts on here are meaningless with no real content behind them. To make this even worst, a lot of people on here don't exist outside of the group buy or classifieds sections.

When you point your finger of negativity at someone, there are 3 more pointing right back at you  ;)

I don't really think so due to mechanicalkeyboards.com getting some in soon. They already have blacks, and should have red & blue very soon (no browns).

Hey Tinlong :)

Any news on whether this is going to happen or not? ShakeR has said that Vortex was making one last batch of Pokers, but finally it seems as though they're going to be Poker 2s (with the arrow key layout) :( Have you heard similar news?
Title: Re: Poker Round v2

I don't really want a Poker 2. If it's not the Poker X I'll probably just end up getting a Pure.

Well said akuJIWA and WhiteFireDragon.

Didn't the Original Poker cost $55 at KBC?

Things are worth whatever people are willing to pay for it.

We all want to make a little extra money and still feel like a morally decent person.

Money seems to being lost between you and the supplier.
