12/13/2023
- The group buy period has been extended one day to allow last streaming build before end date
12/20/2023
- The group buy is closed
- Orders are being sorted. We are tallying all components in preparation for sending to manufacturer
12/29/2023
- The order has been paid in full to manufacturer
1/17/2024
- The manufacturer has informed us that they are unable to start production until after Chinese New Year holiday. This may delay us up to a month, but hopefully we can keep the estimated Q2 2024 fulfillment. The order has been completely paid for to the manufacturer so we're in a waiting game on our end. In the meantime, we're working to plan and pre-pack as much as we can. If this affects your time schedule, please contact me on discord or through the channels listed above.
3/27/2024
- Manufacturing is underway!
6/29/2024
- For those who aren't in Patty's discord, we're waiting on DDS to complete anodizing/coloring.
DDS had a minor fire in their factory which delayed completion until they obtained fire recertification. They're back up and running now.
We've been told the completion of all work will be July 10. This puts us squarely in Q3, which is later than our anticipated Q2 fulfillment.
On my end, to hasten fulfillment, I have asked DDS to express airfreight the order to me. Usually this takes about 2 weeks. I've been pre-packing as much as I can ahead of time to reduce any delays once the shipment arrives to me. I will have to work around being out of town for the Mode Meetup as well as the ChiMK meetup of which I am a vendor, but I will get orders out in the shortest delay possible.
I emailed all group buy participants the same information, just please let me know if any of this affects your group buy participation or if you need to update your address on file for shipping.
Apologies for the delays.
