Title: Convince me not to buy another board
Post by: cryptokey on Fri, 20 November 2015, 21:03:07

I've got a Varmilo VA87MR on it's way that I just spent a good penny on and now like a week later, the VA67M just came out.  I'm a huge fan of the Leopold layout yet my VA87MR is such a similar difference in size that I can't justify buying another Varmilo right after.  ... Must ... resissst...  :-[

Hold off until you try the VA87M before you buy another board. This is like the third run of VA87 boards on Massdrop in just a few months' time, I'm sure if the Leopold clone is any good they'll be running it again soon enough.

Aah, that's what I needed.  I shouldn't feel pressured to buy it now just because it's available on Massdrop.  That's true.  If I like the VA87M, then I can decide if I still want it when it's inevitably available again.  Thanks!  ;D
