Same box for both, only different padding because of differences in size and shape

UsualSuspectXXX · « **Reply #506 on:** Sat, 27 August 2016, 10:03:28 »

Wow, that packaging looks great!

stillzman · « **Reply #507 on:** Mon, 29 August 2016, 13:01:03 »

looks awesome, can't wait to get my board!

such a shame we couldn't get Zeal's clear stabs though, oh well, maybe i can swab them in in the future.

They're for sale right now on Zeal's site, if you're willing to wait for them and build when everything arrives. I bought some clear stabs for myself, but it's going to be for a different build.

my baord is being put together by bazh though so I'll probably have to take it apart and desolder everything, not really worth it at this time

, maybe in the future though.

Same here.

But yes, I don't think it'll be worth the work either. Just an idea, but maybe if you decide to do some customizing on it in the future, it might be a nice opportunity to swap out some stuff. Not really sure how often Zeal will be offering them.

Looks so beautiful jesus! I wonder if I should have taken a more colorful option. I thought that gunmetal would go with a wider variety of sets and better for work environment too. Wait & see I guess.

foggyflute · « **Reply #514 on:** Sat, 10 September 2016, 04:22:22 »

Some image in the middle of packaging...

Without Bazh (who go back to Finland faster than scheduled), now that's lots of work for packaging alone.
And I even completely forgot to print labels before put one third of them in box... At least my wife agree to help me every evening, so hopefully I can ship them to Zeal next week.

Sorry for another delay. But we're getting close! I'm tring my best here!

Quackles · « **Reply #515 on:** Sat, 10 September 2016, 04:36:16 »

They look fantastic! No worries about the slight delay. We just appreciate the update

Hey man don't sweat the delay. What's important is that you guys are taking the time to get things done well.

The purple looks amazing.

Biggestmac · « **Reply #520 on:** Sat, 10 September 2016, 15:56:00 »

+1 for the regret of not joining this buy. I hope there are extras or round 2 comes sooner than later!

axtran · « **Reply #521 on:** Wed, 14 September 2016, 20:35:15 »

Any chance there are extras for Lustro?

Yeah I would like to know if there are any updates as well even if you're still working on the packaging.

*Edit: bazh posted an update in Weaven thread:

Hey just catch some time weekends.

Haven't talked to foggy much this week, just catch up with him this morning, he caught some allegy earlier the week so had to take some days off. Sorry for unable to inform you guys earlier.

Man so much bad luck even things are almost done

Quackles · « **Reply #531 on:** Sun, 16 October 2016, 00:17:53 »

Any chance of an update? Considering it has been a while since an update here in comparison to the Weaven thread.

Heck, even the last couples of updates in the Weaven thread haven't been that informative. The last one from foggy was three weeks ago saying Weaven was packed and he had to finish packing Lustro and the last from bazh was a week ago saying foggy was sick for a couple of days, but not really mentioning the status of anything. Seeing as this buy was estimated to be done two months ago, (invoiced early in June and it said estimated 8 weeks) I would expect something a little more substantial...

Meanwhile, foggy had logged onto GH several times during the week after being asked for an update, but before bazh showed up to answer, and several times since according to his profile - one time he was online, I even sent him a PM letting him know people had asked for updates in his threads. I don't know about you, but if I were running a group buy that was already delayed a couple times and I knew people were asking for updates, I would try to swing by the thread at least once a week.

I don't mind delays, but good communication only becomes more important as a GB drags on past its estimated end date.

fancymans · « **Reply #533 on:** Sun, 16 October 2016, 03:12:35 »

Agreed. Would like an official status update on the GB itself and how much more needs to be done to wrap up packaging and shipping.

Yeah exactly. I just find it bizarre that a lot of group buys have poor communication. Delays happen and I am fine with that. But when they do happen it seems like most of the time the group buy runners communicate less and less. Like they are trying to avoid the situation. You just have to look at Ellipse's F62F77 group buy which has had a big delay. But his communication has been so frequent and simply fantastic that I am not bothered by the huge delay.

Hopefully we get an update soon.

Perhaps they have bigger fishes to fries atm that impact their communication. They have tried to be as transparent as possible from the beginning of the GB but I hear you, updates are welcomed.

From the Weaven thread earlier today:

Quote from: pear_voz

We're sr for the late shipping, but the estimate shipping date would be next week

Assuming the plan is to still have both Weaven and Lustro shipped at the same time, I figured I would post that quote here as well (in case some of you don't check the Weaven thread).

Guys, orders start rolling out today!

In the next couple of days some of you (non-CONUS) should start receiving pm regarding shipping cost. NA order will most likely be shipped last since we have to pack all them in a large bulk parcel and then get shipping invoice last by ZealPC once it arrived.

Again sorry for the last unproductive month, this is way too much off schedule

Jeu · « **Reply #541 on:** Fri, 21 October 2016, 11:35:30 »

had zeal hold all my orders to ship together and save some cost. Will have a Lustro and Black Bird to build!

I did the same, so I'll have some of last round 's Zealios coming with some Aristotle... and it will all ship to me after he receives the clear stabs.

Has anyone been invoiced for the shipping costs yet?
