When will this drop be active?
It seems so silent?

vvlierbergheThey had some issues with people getting two left or two right PCBs and had to repackage all of the kits. Added quite a lot more time on the previous drop. They don't seem to do a drop while the last one is still going on. I bought my first one awhile ago and passed up this drop and have been regretting it. Just waiting for another drop so I can have one at work and one at home.

TheEmptyI know that.
That andrew guy has some bad luck. He has a multi hundred dollar unfunctional kit in a box.
He's pcb don't work at all. This drop is a disaster.
Hope they learn from their mistakes and don't do this to me.

vvlierbergheThey've had quite a few successful ones before. Maybe they changed vendors or something, hopefully they adjust and fix for the next drop.

vvlierbergheQuestion... We will just know the price when the drop happens? Or is there any estimate value for the keyboard already set? Sorry I'm new here.

mgiaganteYes, the price is set at around a given price range, i believe. I think they will pay back something?! Not sure, this is my first drop on massdrop.
I missed the previous drop. For me is was around 250 euro's with all the options and shipping to belgium.
It depends how were you live and what options you choose.
Mx cherry is more expensive than gateron, etc... Full hands on version etc.
Don't expect to cheap out in this drop. It will always be expensive. But if you use this keyboard for a lifetime and for boosting your career, than it is worth the price.

mgiaganteFor me, the ergodox infinity will be more expensive than the ergodox EZ. Because i will make the switches hot-swappable with gold plated plugs. Choose cherry mx blue's, LED, Full-hands on version, blank keys, another set from pimpmykeyboard.com, etc And another 60 euro's in custom fees once it arrives.

vvlierbergheAnd a long third party cable to connect the halves, just to add it to my list.

vvlierbergheIt's a pretty deluxe set that you're looking for. I'm just looking for something a bit cheaper than the Ergodox EZ. Probably I'm gonna choose Cherry MX Brown, the wrist rest accessories and the tilt/tent one. Not even thinking about any LEDs but they would be a nice addition. Do you think it would be less than 250 EUR in that case?
vvlierberghe

mgiaganteOf course. Than it would be around 200 Eur.
BTW, you have to pay in USD, not in EURO's.

mgiaganteMassdrop is like black friday.
You need to be the one to pay first. I check massdrop everyday.

mgiaganteNote: Here's a link to the build guide. This is a DIY kit, so you will have to do the assembly yourself. There will be no component soldering other than switches. This drop is limited to 800 kits.
Don't know how far this is true. But is says: This drop is limited to 800 kits. Is this minimun or maximun?

vvlierbergheIt's quite a difference! I think it's great that they have the email and desktop alerts. I'll probably find a way to disable any other alerts than this Ergodox massdrop and thread replies, since I'm only interested in this. Do you have any other Ergodox keyboards or this will be your first?

vvlierbergheTo me it sounds like it's the maximum they will make.

mgiaganteI hope it is the minimun they will make. The power of mass production lowers the price.
