Hi everyone, I was looking for some infos on mic modifying and I discovered this groupbuy.
I'd like to buy some capsules too, when it's the last day possibility to have a chance to join?
That's because I surely want 2 K47, but I also would like some of the others, but I have to check money, you know?
Also, I'm from Italy, really near switzerland, so maybe I can come to take my capsules, or even help Banzai in his shipping days, if you're not too far
 
I believe Banzai mentioned next week would be the deadline for the K47 orders.

Since we're still some way off from the 100pcs minimum order quantity for the other types (CK12 & K87), the orders for those will be placed later, so there should be "some" time to scrape together a few more $ / euros for those :)

Ok, that's  cool. So should I consider sunday the 24th as deadline for the order?
Also, is the "3 capsules minimum order" valid even for the K47 capsules only, or not?
Thanks.
 
I'm afraid Banzai himself will have to answer that :)

Yeah,  it will be a minimum of 3x K47's for everyone. Deadline is pretty loose, the more we are the better!

Wanting to keep everything as affordable as possible, we should discuss the best way to proceed with the next step:

The payment to China for the capsules will be in USD, paid by bank transfer. The bank account connected to my Paypal is in CHF, so that would mean putting all of your payments through 2 unnecessary currency conversions: the first USD to CHF when withdrawing the funds to my account, and the second CHF to USD when transferring to China. Paypal's spreads for currency conversions being terrible, this will have a noticeable impact on our costs.

Is there anybody with a USD bank account connected to their Paypal who could receive all of these payments instead? If we can avoid even a single conversion, then that's what we should do.
 
Well that's quite annoying / unfortunate indeed :D  I guess we're sort of "stuck" with appealing to some of the members of this group-buy who live overseas, then..(?) :)
 
My order can change a little i will let to know in a days ;)

Paypal suck with currency exchange...
I don't know if this help, i can always send my payment with bank transfer in euro.
 
If we can't figure out a better way, we'll have to go for payments in CHF through Paypal. Then a single conversion to USD.

No-one goes on hold, since we're not sure we'll even be going back for a second order.

If we go for the K47 on its own (looking increasingly likely), your order would have to be 3pcs. K47 minimum to join. Same again for the CK12.

So I imagine since I asked for 1 k47 and 2 CK12 that I would be on hold until the next one?

Ok then. I'll wait on my order until/if another round comes up. I really needed the CK12 so if a CK12 order is not going to happen I'll just wait until/if it does.
 
We won't be going back for a second order of... K47's? Or no second order of any capsules?

I'm a bit confused now :) If memory serves, we need a minimum quantity of 100 capsules (of the same type) to place an order for them. We're well over that with the K47's, but the subsequent order of CK12's doesn't count as "going back for a second order"? Or are we waiting until we gather orders also for min. 100 CK12's too, and then place the order for the K47's and CK12's together? :D
