It sounds like they used the funds of this GB to turn their vaporware into reality; and when things got rolling they gave a middle finger to you and everyone else in this GB while they had no troubles supplying keyboards to everyone else.

At this point, I think it's safe to assume that we have been ripped off like rubes. Oh well, live and learn that not all people on the internet are honest. Who knew? Nest step: I guess somebody should start an interest check on a class-action lawsuit.

Don't worry. iMav will take appropriate action if necessary.

Vortex is just ramping up so I can't see them taking all your money and heading for the rice paddys... not yet anyway.

But seriously, if you're on the front end of the purchase to import goods, this kind of delay happens all the time. You just get spoiled buying products that are already manufactured or already imported.

No. They have always shipped in the past. Nobody panic.

I have received another email stating they will ship this week.

Given the apparent Cherry MX shortage, the DIY kit makes perfect sense. They don't have to do anything except send the parts they have.

Sounds like the same story of the dirt farmer dangling the carrot in front of the donkey. So when next week rolls around and still no tracking numbers what course of action will you take?

I'm still thankful to have a spot in this group buy. Keep us updated iMav, please.

Is there a warranty on these keyboards?? The only thing I am worried about is that the LEDs will dim after a 6 months - 1 year of usage. To be honest, if you don't trust the owner of this website, you really should not be on it. It is THAT simple.

Let's be very clear about one thing: this has ****-all to do with trusting iMav. He has done nothing wrong here at all. This is about trusting Vortex. I will believe that Vortex shipped the keyboards when iMav says they've arrived on his doorstep. Until then, they suck.

rknize · « **Reply #627 on:** Wed, 20 June 2012, 11:34:55 »

One thing I notice about the other vendors selling these is that they are very specific types. When iMav opened the door for other LED colors, it may have contributed to the delay. I'm just guessing, though.

I trust that iMav will do everything in his power to set things straight with Vortex, and as the title implies GB Organizers organize the GB and handle the relations with the vendor, so it requires us to trust both iMav as well as the vendor to carry out their duties of organizer and vendor. Nobody has said iMav did anything wrong.

I also believe that if additional LED colors were not added to the GB per the request of numerous users, then the Race would be well in our hands by now.

black kbt race has been available for quite some time.

on amazon.co.uk, for example.

as for iso, good luck. vortex said they can make it, which means it will probably never happen.

That info will be in the email I send out.

I have PMs and emails detailing order purchases/swaps/etc that I am reconciling with my master order sheet right now. The email will communicate shipping as well as verify order (and order owner).

iMav was on the road again. I'm sure he'll pick up once he's back this weekend.

How many of the white keycaps would fit on a ducky shine? ie. What keys wouldn't fit?
