that would be okay…but its allready nearly 50% on the grand value…and thats a little hard…when i order from smashTV its always around 20-25%.
you wrote that we are arround 181 PCBs to order…so if there are only 19 PCBs left to 200 you should fill them up…i think there will be some users out there who wants to have one or to more PCBs later or there will be some latecomers.
I fear, it is quite common, that some people won´t respond or pay in a bulk order, so I guess we are safely above the 150 pcs limit, which is already great ;-).
It will be lotsa work shipping out all these parcels.
from that point of view you are right! its save to buy that many because to buy more without any interessted person at the moment its only more cost for fairlight. And as Peter said…thanx for the work! it will be hard work to handle all the parcels!
100% of the Paypal invoices have been paied (181 PCBs).
I will order today or tommorow because my manufacturer doesn’t begin his work before monday (and I’m working on a better accuracy of LEDs positionning on the board, I will say much later).
Fairlightiii - you should do what is most comfortable for you. Nobody expect you to work your ass off at christmas time - it’s the time for relaxing. You have done an extremely great job documenting what happens with the bulk order, so I don’t think anyone is getting nervous if it takes a bit longer because of christmas.
If it helps shave some of the load off your shoulders, you can send mine after christmas too, do what you feel like ;).
I don’t need midibox gear for christmas - all I want is really described by this song:
