Hello everyone this is the group buy page for the
Canvas and Mahjong 65% left hand numpad keyboards. Google
forms for orders are up NOW, and are posted here:
HERE IS THE ORDER FORM TO FILL REMAINING SPOTS FROM OTHERS WHO LEFT THE MAHJONG GROUP BUY: CLOSED<<<
Canvas Order Form: Closed not enough orders<<<
Forms will close once 50 Mahjong and 25 Canvas requests are in.
First group buy will ship in US only.
After forms close, I will send out Paypal Invoices giving a week to pay before I choose another person to take your spot.
Production will start once all orders are placed and will take ~3 Months before I receive them. (This is long because of the cornavirus’s affects on manufacturing around the world)
Once I receive them I will upload firmware and test each one and should send them out within the month.
Estimate production start Date: June 6, 2020
Estimated Ship Date: August 1, 2020

UPDATES
March 16, 2020 - Orders for Mahjong
Hi-profile have hit 50; the form is closed for new
submissions!
If you need to edit your order please PM
me with the changes you would like!
I will try to send
out Invoices this weekend, but may not get to them all
because i’ll be out of town for a day or two. I’ll also try
to get the Extra PCB’s quoted this week; its looking like
we’ll get a pretty good quote because a decent amount of
people put in for them. Updates will keep coming as I make
progress.
Canvas Low-Pro is moving pretty slow, so i’ll
evaluate the interest in a week or so.
March 24, 2020 -
I have already gotten a few messages about a request to
delay the group buy due to the Corona-virus affecting almost
all business in the world. An email has been sent with a
form to all people in the Mahjong GB: Proposing a delay for
invoices to be released until April 17th at the earliest.
Thanks
All!
March 27, 2020 - I will be delaying the GB and
checking back in around April 17th and seeing how everything
is progressing with the virus; hopefully get a good estimate
of when a good time to send out invoices would be. Anyone
who will be dropping out due to the delay please send me a
PM.
Mid April I will be putting another form up to
collect extra entries to offset anyone who can no longer
participate in the group buy.
Hope everyone is doing
well!
April 24, 2020 - OK! it seems that everyone who
contacted me in the past is doing better now and we should
be able to continue with the Group buy; I will be sending
out Invoices this weekend if there are no other reasons for
delay!
April 26, 2020 - Invoices have been sent out
today for the Mahjong! check your inbox/spam; if you can’t
find it and you think you are on the list, please send me a
message with your email you used so i can check to see if
you submitted an email with a typo.
All invoice
recipients will have 10 days to pay from the day they
receive the invoice; after the 10 days are up
(Wednesday, May 6th) I will put up another
Google Form so I can fill any missing spots.
May 6,
2020 - A form has been posted to allow people to fill the
spots of those who have cancelled for the Mahjong Group buy
here: Closed, production will start once the required
invoices have been paid.
