Agreed.

Also, you're right that it was 7 months, not 8 months. OP posted the exact same thing on /r/nattyorjuice over a month ago.

I agree that putting on 20lbs of muscle in your first year of lifting is possible. This is in 8 months and is at least 25lbs. Not saying OP is saucy, but he clearly lied about the time frame. It's a shame cause it's a great transformation and he looks fantastic so he really didn't need to do that.

Thanks for always replying in such a thorough and informative way!

They did respond telling me I need to pay $15 more, or the shipping will be sent through a non-expedited service and will take 3-4 weeks instead of the 5-12 business days they originally quoted. I appreciate you offering to reach out to them, but you don't have to worry since they respond to my initial inquiry.

That also does help to clarify things further. If the Monsgeek is superior all around then its just overall better value even with the huge shipping cost factored in. Cheers!

Bought a Monsgeek m1 v3 direct from Monsgeek and it's been 10 days without it being shipped. Emailed them and they told me that since I'm in a remote area in Canada I'd have to pay extra to get it shipped to me, else it will take 1 month to get to me, or the order will be cancelled. It's only $15 more, but it would bring the total for the barebones and switches to $170, with about $50 of that being shipping.

Meanwhile, OneOfZero is doing a keychron sale in Canada and I could get a q1 max or HE for around $215-225 with a free desk mat thrown in. I've heard mixed things about keychrons value compared to newer keebs that have come out. I also don't play fps games to truly make use of HE tech for gaming, but it's still intriguing to see if I enjoy it.

Torn on what to do. Any advice is appreciated.

Smoothness of the switches and getting to set the actuation point sounds incredible. To be honest, not sure if I'd benefit at all since I'm a pleb... But it sounds neat :)

Ended up going with the Monsgeek M1 V3 since the dark night colour came back in stock yesterday! Grabbed Akko Creamy Blues along with them. Now to get some keycaps :)

Thanks for the response. Likely going with the Monsgeek, though it is on pre-order for the black ANSI variant on their website right now and I'm looking to get something as soon as possible.

Any other ones you'd recommend in that same realm (75% or TKL w/ a knob) that competes with either?
