Sure Let me know if there is anything else I can help with.

People usually add a note next to the keyboards they want to sell, so people can contact them.

There will be cards available that you can use.

Good news everyone! Wooting just told me they will join us at the conference! Try out their Wooting One first hand and maybe even win one at our famous raffle!

Hey I just updated the description and added some of our early sponsors and special guests! I am very happy that we get that much support and I am super excited for November! See you there!

I will give you my phone number and make sure that you can deliver the keyboards to the location and we will look out for it, while you park your car.
