He currently has my SSK, he last answered me a week ago, usually he replies within the day, so he must be very busy.

So yeah he should still be doing business.

I contacted through site, then he replied with mail, I think he's just busy at the moment to answer.

if he doesn't publicly put it on his website and prefer to have a form, I won't give it away.

He'll get back to you I think.

You might possibly getting caught by his spam filter. I've had that happen to me.

His email is a Google account. If you are using gmail, I don't see anyway of it getting sent to spam.

Just be patient, if you're sending like multiple emails a day it's very likely you could be caught by the spam filter.

Sometimes Maxx is very busy.  He will get back to you as soon as he can.  I am sure he is overwhelmed with everything, (and that's not counting restorations!) it makes my head spin at how much he does!

Wish I had some gif or quote for this space, but I got nothing

he just answered my mail saying he was out of town.

If he's out of town, he might be gone for a few days.  I'd say don't panic and try again next week (or give him a chance to catch up on his emails if he gets back next week).
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

i only just found out about this guy.
if only he lived in the EU, though! :(
the shipping cost and added tax would just kill the deal for me.. a total bummer, because his work looks so damn solid!

but i'm glad someone's keeping the Model Ms alive! what a hero
