Bad news:
The neighbor claims that he has not received the parcel.
The neighbor name in the paper that I found in the mailbox does not match the name in the web page.
I have asked the neighbors around, no news.
I have called the DHL service. They shall ask the driver ... next Monday !!!!

Oh shhhh... What's a DHL guy going to do with a bunch of stolen PCBs?
I'm sure it's got to be a simple mix-up of some kind... Fingers crossed!

This happens... No worries. Why I said 1+ months on the flippers and springs earlier. I was about to reward you (before this), with the best Chinese part exchange of all time. Don't sweat it, but stay diligent. Thanks again for all of your work

I have gotten the parcel. The address that the driver wrote in the Paper Dispatch Note was wrong. He handed over the packet to the other neighbor.
I was working with the new PCB yesterday, but I had problems to make it work, which resulted in something very simple. DO NOT USE THE RUBBER MATE ! The bigger size of the F flippers makes them more difficult to flip. Moreover, when they flip the do not do it all the way to the board, some of them stay in the middle as the mate is strong enough to hold them.
I have mounted and dismounted the FSSK3 more than 10 times. It took me some time to realise that the sound of the spacebar was different than the others (the spacebar was the key that was not working in my setup). I made a test without the rubber mate and the keyboard stated to work as a dream.
This post is typed with it.
I have taken lots of pictures of the process that I will post for your reference. My idea is to create an FSSK Users Manual Thread with this information. It will come.
I do not think that I will have time to start with the posting until next week Thursday. I will prepare the stickers (PDF on the web) and send them to the Group Buyers for confirmation during the week.
I am happy after my desperation of yesterday. IT WORKS !

For a person that had NOTHING to do with this, I'm actually proud right now. Like when a member of your family has their first child kinda proud. The difference, your cousin has decided to clone the baby for you and the world to enjoy
. AMAZING NEWS!!!

Based on this post, I have numbered the PCBs.
Post the PCB number that you want to have or that you need in this tread.
The table with the PCB allocation has been added to the first post of the GB
The process is FIFO

Great to hear that the package was recovered!
