Hello and welcome to TheVan 44 Group Buy!
PCBs, cnc milled aluminum cases and plates, stabilizers, hardware and keycaps!
$164.00 for the kit (pcb, case, plate, stabilizers, and hardware)
$56.00 per set of keycaps
TheVan 44 is unique in that it was designed around the use of two function layers accessible from either side of the keyboard to maximize layer usability.
I am working with local manufactures to bring you a mostly made in USA keyboard. The PCBs are printed in China and assembled in the US. The case and plate are manufactured and anodized in Arizona.
This Group Buy is limited to 100 Kits. We need to reach 50 kits for this to happen.
1. This buy will run from April 1st until April 30th, unless all 100 kits are claimed sooner.
2. From the end of the buy I will give everyone 1 week to pay their invoices.
3. Orders will then be submitted to manufacturers. I have been quoted with 4-6 week lead time. Of course this could go over by a week or two.
4. Once I receive the goods I will be mailing out all the orders. I'm expecting to have all orders sorted and shipped within a week.
Expected Ship Date of June 1 to June 22.
