A whale AND 3 spacebars...

Have you seen Feng's smart GBs?
Pay up front and then compile the order form!

There's a problem in your logic. I had to get INVOICED first to get the prepay price for a set quantity. How could I possibly have had people pay beforehand? With Feng he can order any amount he wants at a fixed price (I assume, correct me if I'm wrong).

Advancing it was generous and speeds up the group buy. Thanks!

I'm glad some people appreciate it. Pasph just seems to want to blame the dropouts on me for some reason.

Where's the problem? You have a fixed amount of items to order, estimate the price then add some good % for all cases
It's a market, remember?
-------------------------------------
Absolutely i don't want to blame you! I have re-taken my slot to support your effort, your way is THE way these things have to be done! And i want to thank you to be here.
I just was trying to be sarcastic (not so well, i know)
Never mind, I'm just a little disgusted lately

I appreciate you doing this in the first place and even more so that you're doing it with financial risks for yourself!

Let The Waiting Game officially commense!

It should be ~1-3 weeks until the lube gets shipped to me considering I sent the prepay on the 15th and lead time is 4-6 weeks.

NET amount from the past 7 days - $897.30

Switch and keycap orders are a constant, but the lube GB pushed my paypal balance to the highest it's ever been. I guess this is nothing for those of you that do all those SP GBs, but it's a lot for someone like me who works at Arby's.

Grats! Next goal, $1000!
Oh, and can I get a sammich with my lube? I don't have Arby's here

I was just going over my numbers and freaking out a little... Until I realized I donated €10 to DT...

EDIT: All orders were rounded up to the nearest 50cents so there should have been a few dollars extra. Especially with the gift payments by some people. But I was negative $1.85 because I donated €10 to DT. I should have added 50cents more to every order.

Sorry about the last minute drop out
blame USPS!
That sudden rise in shipping costs spread on pending orders changed the game :/

I wonder if people get embarrassed when I ship their orders in reused pink/feminine product bubble mailers that my mom gets all the time. Lucky for you guys I raided my dad's bubble mailer stash. Though his stash was raided from [REDACTED] beforehand...

We are now at ~0-2 weeks until the lube gets shipped to them/me.

I want one of those pink bubble things!
Make sure to include a lot of hand drawn hearts! Also, the word 'lube' has to be omnipresent.
I won't be too upset if you don't put a bow on it, but I will be to a certain degree.
Also include nicknames in the from/to section.
For example:
To:

• "Mr. Lubealot"
  [actual address]
  GERMANY

In short: Gay it up as much as you can! Maybe the Zoll will be too embarrassed and they'll let my package through. Or the opposite will happen... but worth a shot!

I have half of a pink bubble mailer left. I'll try to remember to use it for your lube. I would rather not give Der Zollamt a reason to inspect your package "Mr. Lubealot"... I may get my sister to draw something on it though (no promises, and it may be in Japanese...).

I've got plenty of tentacle porn, no need for that, thank you very much.

PS: He doesn't use lube.

Holy Fucking Asscrackers Batman!

Lube ahoy!

First contact - 12/20

This was the last I heard...

Hello,

Yes. The order was processed. The lead time is 4-6 weeks on the GPL. I will let you know when it ships from Dupont with an expected arrival date.

I guess since it arrived early I can't complain...

Just arrived?!!!

Yeah I know! Less than 2 months after first contact I received what I ordered direct from the factory. If only all groupbuys could be this fast.

Anyone else notice that the tubes seem to be particularly grungy? I wonder why that is when they are brand new...

Awesome! I can't wait to try it out.

After these get shipped out, what lube(s) should I do next from the greases 200-207? I believe the minimum order of 6 does not apply to 202-207. I'm thinking at least 202 as it is in-between 200 and 205. But I'll probably order everything that gets enough orders. I fear there will be too many orders for the oils 100-107 so I will refrain from offering to do those for now.

I'm gonna populate another of my switch-try PCBs with Krytox 200 lubed switches later. I just opened my tube and limmy may be right about separation in the thinner greases. I squeezed and shook it vigorously and that seems to have mixed it back up quite well.

Hurray for early delivery! Btw I PM'd you about shipping The_Ed

After you vigorously squeeze and shake the tube it's just fine. Remember to do that everybody.



Acetrak - That address is in the paypal payment so you're good.

On GH the war in my signature has begun once again! Whoever's doing it needs to fuck off!

The google cache is a nice feature, now if only it archived farther back...



Oh and the lube will probably ship out on Monday.

EDIT: Found some old pics and realized more stuff was secretly deleted... I have them in order now (I think). There are obviously a lot of missing changes. There's a really good one that they deleted, and I cant find a pic of it!



Lets see what happens next.

EDIT2: Now I know who it was, and he deleted the entire thing now! Partially changing and deleting bits wasn't enough I guess...



No freedom of speech at GH, this is the second time reaper has spanked my peepee for swearing...

EDIT3: I did what he asked, just not in the way he expected... DON'T TASE BAN ME BRO!

I shipped 7 out of 14 packages I have today. I will *maybe* ship the other 7 tomorrow.

I asked for tracking on 3 packages, and yet they put it on a 4th. So a cherry PCB-mount stabilizer order now has tracking... I wonder what the final postage amount will be (and whether or not I collected enough...). I don't seem to pack with a consistent weight, so some are a few dollars more/less. If another lube GB happens from me I will pad the price accordingly to the actual postage prices from these tubes.

If you need a few extra bucks drop me a pm, no problem.
