The drop itself was a little disappointing. I got mine in the first drop last year, it was delayed, didn't even come with screws or feet . I understand things going late, especially for MK stuff. But missing parts suck, albeit MD gave people a credit for the missing parts. I was charged $40CAD for duties upon delivery (DHL delivered to Canada), making this guy cost a total of $260CAD/$205USD.
Note: This is currently the 3rd drop, a 2nd drop happened earlier and that completely tanked.
The case itself was sadly also a little disappointing from a quality control point. The QC was abysmal for this, people either got flawless cases, or damaged cases. I had light chips, and scratches on mine nothing huge but still worth mentioning. The screw holes are poorly machined, I was screwing it in properly but the screw hole was tight and catchy in certain spots. Felt like I was cross threading every damn screw. There were some fitment issues with my Zeal60 (Tested a Satan60 as well - same issues) as some screw holes barely aligned with either PCB.
It's a shame because I really like the case now that I have been using it. Aesthetically very pleasing. The coating that they use makes it feel like a smooth ceramic and not paint. After being built, my keyboard weighs a hefty ~3.5lbs. Even with all the imperfections the case is still awesome.
I expected some higher attention to quality on something that costs this much. I don't see myself selling this anytime soon, but I wouldn't buy it again knowing the same issues aren't fixed.

TheEv0Same. Mine came with a few defects, then they shipped me a replacement with more defects. Had to keep my first because I want this for my endgame. Currently thinking of cerakoting my case to hide the defects, or just spray paint the thing.

TechieWeirdoCerakoting would be the best option, that's just hella expensive though. I think the cheapest option, compared to cerkote, that would result in a high quality finish would be powder coating.
I like the "thiccc coating" feel a lot more than the "trojan sensations thin spray paint" feel. Even a high quality automotive finish still doesn't feel as durable as a coating.
