Received most of the misc parts. There are exceptions preventing certain orders from shipping (may have to be split). Will post a more detailed update shortly or tomorrow. PCBs are all here.

Received most of the group’s cases. Waiting on ninjadoc’s pad, misc parts, acrylic inserts, and PCBs. Two of the WK orders were made as WKL and TANK has told me that it will be remade, with ETA around the turn of the year.
Domestic shipping has incurred some unforseen costs (110 RMB for the first shipment of two cases, 170 for today’s shipment of four). Once everything has reached me, I will tally up the total and invoice you all. Should be no more than $10 each. This buy is small-scale and I have 0 margins on it, otherwise I’d just pay for it from there. Thanks for understanding. Just checked the pricing below and apparently I did add $15 to each order. Huh. Looks like I’ll be covering the additional shipping from that after all. ;D

Final stages of production and shipping within China. Most are complete apart from acrylic inserts and numpad plates. I received two of them today unannounced - mine and TerryMathews’s. The anodizing is flawless and the finish is very smooth. My own plate had a couple small scratches which I don’t really mind, but I’ll post the pics for them in a bit. TerryMathews’s plate appears to not have these scratches. Maybe it had to do with the color.

We have the boards numbered from 58 to 63. Currently it is confirmed that the first 20 or so have been anodized, and machining is finished for at least the first 56 boards. TANK posted a color album calling for last-minute color changes. Not sure if they’ll be sent out from TANK before the end of October but it appears that we’re nearing completion.
7/17/2016
Color selections were finalized and sent in a month ago. Just waiting on production now. There were 50+ sets from China so I expect this to take a while. If there are updates, I will post them here in a timely manner.
6/4/2016
All invoices are paid and confirmed. The money is being sent to TANK.
Waiting on finalizing the color and layout selections, then we’ll be good to go.

Last few minutes of the GB. This is TANK’s first foray into the west, and there aren’t a lot of orders, but they will be damn good.
Closed. Invoices/requests will be sent shortly.
Invoices sent. PMs sent as well regarding color options.
Chinese custom aluminum TKL + numpad kit. Comes w/ the case parts and PCB.
Order form
You can latch the numpad onto the left or right of the TKL to form a full-sized board, or just use them separately.
You’ll get a brass connector plate for buying both.
PCBs are the authentic B.87 and B.pad from Hojin of winkeyless.kr.
You can choose a color for every individual lpart (except the brass connector plate, which is brass-colored), for up to 3 different colors per kit. See the color renders for color options, but you cannot specify them at this point in time.
Each kit will be numbered on the inside of the case. If you buy both the TKL and pad, they’ll have the same number.
The Chinese group has voted to opt for the higher quality anodizing, at an increased cost of 300 RMB for the TKL and 150 RMB for the pad.
Cost of the TKL (V2) is 2699 RMB, and the pad (P1) is 999 RMB. Using Xoom’s unfavorable exchange rate, the cost in dollars are $418.09 for V2 and $154.75 for P1 as of 5/28/2016.
Shipping cost of V2 is $50 by itself, P1 is $35 by itself. $65 when combined. Each order will have a $15 fee tacked on for when //// pops up, as well as misc costs. This is approx 3% of the total if you order a single V2.
End date: June 1st
Stripe preferred, 2.9% + $0.30 fees. Paypal not preferred, 4.4% + $0.30 fees.
Dwolla and Google Wallet available for US buyers, and has no fees.
