So far, the approach appears to be that 7bit orders more of certain kits than has actually been sold in order to reach the MOQ for said kits. These extras are then sold as 'leftovers' – hence the selling of leftover keys from Round 6, a round which is yet to be produced. I'm not sure how 7bit handles the whole thing – presumably, he pays for the as of yet unsold keycaps himself, hoping he'll be able to sell them later. If that is the case, there's probably a limit to how much of his own money he's willing to part with in the hopes of making it back through leftover sales (unless running crazy group buys for keyboard geeks is something that makes you filthy rich, but I doubt it).
Round 5 and Round 6 kits for sale!

Now that 7bit is back, it is time to again push for...
PHASE1
the kit that pays to have phase 1 keycaps sent immediately rather than waiting for the rest of our (phase 2) keycaps. All those in favor say "aye"!

Sooo ... any feedback from SP regarding the production process ?
Status page says "In production" but I'm having a hard time believing that.
Also what's the new status on Phase2 after everyone paid up ? Funded ? 10% funded ? 90% funded ?

Any chance I can get some info what is going on with my package?
It is close to two months since it has been sent and it still hasn't arrived.

And this is shipping a small package from Europe to Europe.

PM:ing 7bit is probably your best bet. But I'm in the same predicament (albeit with a bank transfer), as was someone else a few posts back. It might just be a glitch in 7bot's programming or something. Either that, or the bot has gained sentience and made plans to run away to the Bahamas.Radlife wrote:Who would I talk to if one of my payments don't show up in the invoice? In Google Wallet it says that the transaction was completed.

I may mistaken but I don't think the bot is handling wire transfers these have to be fed by hand back into the bot's data. Usually this doesn't take long (from buyer's view) but got worried for my last transfer that didn't show after a week so I issued a pm to 7bit about this and he came back to me and edited it. I don't know about google wallet though.caligo wrote:PM:ing 7bit is probably your best bet. But I'm in the same predicament (albeit with a bank transfer), as was someone else a few posts back.

Yes, I guess that statement was a tad imprecise – what I meant was that the information might not have made it to 7bot due to either kinks in the code making it fail to register said info, or just 7bit forgetting to tell the bot about the payment. Seeing as there are several of us with the same issue, there's most likely a problem with one specific batch of payment registrations. But this is all speculation at this point. I'm just relieved that I'm not the only one – that means some error in 7bit's or 7bot's bookkeeping is a far more likely culprit than my money being lost forever somewhere in cyberspace.mecano wrote:I may mistaken but I don't think the bot is handling wire transfers these have to be fed by hand back into the bot's data.

I understand that but I made the payment on March 8th and is already been 2 weeks. I've made another payment to get another key and that one is on the invoice, but this one isn't.
