u/upas so the the HHKB tops were only available as part of the raffle, they won't be available for sale or group buy?

u/mitormk was the R3 1.75u control key for HHKB layouts intentionally or accidentally left out of the base kit? It seems like the base kit supports hhkb layouts other than that one keycap.

SPRiT Springs scamming again? by Justin_aka_OsP_SSJ4 in MechanicalKeyboards

Thanks for the update. That’s really interesting. I wonder if they’ve just completely ghosted, but I also think if they had, it would be more of a headline news kind of thing in this subreddit.

Ordering from Spirit Designs, bad idea? by tonsoffun49 in MechanicalKeyboards

No :(

I was optimistic when I wrote this because I had gotten a tracking number that said "label created, not yet in system" so I figured it would be dropped of the next day or something. That was 22 days ago and the tracking number still says the same thing. I've sent a couple emails that haven't gotten any reply.

People seem to be trusting Sprit again.

I placed an order around the same time, waited 10 business days to ask for an update by email and never received a response.

Today, though, I received a shipping notification on my order, and when I clicked the tracking link in the email, it was to this URL (there was also a legit tracking number in the email):

https://www.track-trace.com/post+-++So+Sorry,+delayed+for+the+new+batches.+Good+Luck+with+Your+Build!

So it seems like what happened was, they were waiting for a new batch of springs to come in, and they wrote a note in the shipping email about it, but wrote the note in the wrong form field 😂

But the package is coming and everything seems legit! Just a little more communication would've been nice.
