Vortex just got back, and they cancelled the groupbuy, and they are currently issuing refunds, I will be refunding you guys the money when I receive it from Vortex..... My confidence in Vortex has diminished from minimal to zeroo.

This does not bode well for the Poker DIY buy.

Hey Rip, how come your posting limit isn't kicking in? (Not that I mind, just wondering!)

Sorry... Which groupbuy? There are so many and I'm in several of them :? And, I use the "surprise me" method to keep track of them.

Cool, thanks for that demik, everyone should have their refunds in the next half hour or so. I am as disappointed as many of you are about this, but Vortex does not happen to be the best company with producing their products =/.

Do you have contact to the original group buy leader (from singapore I believe).

I ordered directly from him, but don't have any way to reach him with GH down.

i think sherry might have managed to get some of the squirrels before they stopped producing them. lin might also be able to find some stock on taobao

Are you saying that there are black squirrels on taobao? Who here can make a GB for them so we can get them at *decent* prices?

My apologies. As Vortex is unable to produce the keycaps in the given and promised time frame, NIQMODS have got no choice but to cancel this group buy and refund all interested parties your payment.

Hopefully you are able to get your 2 black KBT LOGO keycaps from another source soon. :D
