So say, for non b stock within 2-3 weeks would be a reasonable guess?
i think so personally. i've got tons of both retail and OEM orders to get through now that the k87 is good to go. god help me. thank god i didn't spend anyone's money so i actually still have the money to ship all of these. i held on to all the money from the unshipped orders and funded all the production and development out of pocket using profits from the k47s. things probably would have gone faster if i actually spent people's money, but that felt gross. joke's on past me now though since it worked out better that way.

Great, thanks Ari!

Can i place order on the website as normal even though it will say 'Backorder'?
 
I've temporarily disabled the cardioid flat k47s because funnily enough, they're just aren't enough QC failures to sell this time. Our manufacturing on these has gotten too tight to have three bins. We have to go down to two. All of the current orders will get bumped up one bin for free and starting with the next batch of flat k47s I'm going to be making single-sided versions with only one side metalized.
 
@soliloqueen If you're willing to share (totally understand if not), I'm curious how many capsules you've sold of each model. I always wonder how big our little DIY mic scene is, and number of capsules sold seems like a decent proxy.
I'm going to hit 2000 capsules pretty soon! Not a huge amount given the monumental startup expenses and the issues I've run into but enough at least to keep the lights on. Most of those have been in just the last year. It's not a huge amount and it's normally not an amount that I would have trouble shipping but I've got so many plates spinning at once. I think I need to start delegating again, but with a part-time employee rather than outsourcing anything.
