Thanks for the help! It worked. I got a new invoice with the address updated.

I submitted the same PM for address change back in July and the invoices since never reflected the change till now.

Oh lol ... it feels like making RoundX keycaps is more like a hobby for SP than a real contract :)

Now they put those Ice cpas in the schedule.
Still no change to our phase 2:(

I was thinking - they must finish Chocolatiers set by February 2017, so they must finish our phase2 by then, right?
Chocolatier isn't even on schedule yet.

The Ice Cap ones, being dye sub, should be easier and faster, I would think? Also, they're only doing like 100 of them.

I'm sorry to see they're all row 3, I hope their "experimental" dyesub SA caps aren't always row 3. I would've gotten them if they were sculpted. Well, if they were sculpted and also if I were psychic enough to know when they were going up for sale - I'm sure they sold out in minutes.

I still need someone to collect PayPal money. This is necessary to speed up phase 2 production!!!

7bit, i have a question... How the occurrence of new paypay collector will speed the Phase 2 ????
Most of ordered keycaps are paid, so you should have enough money to pay SP.
Can you tell us any expected date of phase 2 finishing ?
Thanks.

7bit, should I open a dispute for my June 8th payment to mashby, or will he eventually send an update? He accepted my funds, but hasn't submitted the payment.

Posted: 07 Sep 2016, 00:41

There are a lot of unsold kits, plus some extra costs for the remakes of keys that had been messed up by me sending SVG grphics at 1000dpi, while SP requires 72dpi.
:?

What is missing are about $12,000 to cover production of the 2nd half. If there is nobody collecting PayPal money, I can only sell to EU (normal bank transfer) and US people (Google Wallet), which slows down the whole thing significantly.
:o

And finally: No Round 7!
:cry: :shock: :mad:

I find this odd because when I ran the SHIFT legend experiment last year, I sent SP vector files (for which there is no dpi to deal with) and the double-shot legends came back perfect the first time. Why oh why is anybody sending raster images to SP? That just leads to high potential for errors. I really thought this was made abundantly clear last fall.

Posted: 07 Sep 2016, 01:12
by 7bit
You might remember that I was not able to generate those files and had to use SVG files. SP scaled them down to whatever they thought is right, ignoring my orderlist which had the keys all in the correct size and also did not ask me to send them in the correct scaling. Instead, they just produced the keyes with too small legends.
:cry:

so what does a paypal collector have to do?

Posted: 07 Sep 2016, 01:27
by 7bit
Just move the incomming money to a bank account and when you have like $10,000 collected, send them to SP.

Also: You need to tell the bot who has paid how much and when.

Does this mean you still need to sell 12K's worth of round 2 keys before you can pay SP? As in, could production theoretically be finished but we won't get the keys till more money is gathered?

Posted: 07 Sep 2016, 10:08
by 7bit
Yes, they can start production of 2 colors right now (let's say white and grey keys).

If Mashby would finally come up we can pay at least another $3643.34. If we had a PayPal money collector, there is $6817.49 due to be paid, enough to cover the 3rd color (the red ones for example).

So, anybody who is helpnmg collect money is speeding up the production.

BTW, SP did forget to make most of the violett/cream keys and is currently producing them. The first batch was fully covered for quite some time (since January!), so all those delays so far have been caused by Signature Plastics. I really don't want production to be pushed into 2017, just because there is no way people can pay.

If you don't want to collect $10,000 or so, just do only $5,000 or $2,500. If there are more than one doing it, there would be no problem.
