I don't mean to be rude, we all appreciate your work. There's just a huge demand for your product.
Oh, calm down, I wasn't bitching. I also figured I didn't need to kiss anyone's butt here. We all seem like sensible people here.bigrich424 wrote:"I don't mean to be rude..... but let me be rude....."CarbonKich wrote:So...how many are we talking about?

People crack me up. If you are that all about it do all the work, design the board, order parts, prototype, get the boards printed, test them all for quality control, put them up here for sale, and then listen to people bitch about not spiting out product faster....
Let me know when you have some.... I'll take 2.....
It's funny that no one writes Nintendo and asks when more NES classics will be out, or how many were produced, and when the next batch will arrive... and if you did you wouldn't get an answer. Yet somehow everyone thinks its OK to question him. He puts himself out here, helps people troubleshoot, and then catches hell for it. Yours was not that bad but after reading dozens of them on this post and others i went into blind keyboard fury.CarbonKich wrote:Oh, calm down, I wasn't bitching.

I said that I appreciate the work he's putting into this. He's got the best product here, as evidenced by the demand. Everyone knows that.
My point was if there's 500 people waiting for 100 boards, I don't have a snowballs chance in hell of getting one and should drop out since I work 80 hour weeks and can't sit by my computer full-time.
Again, didn't mean to offend. I was looking for clarity on the supply-demand side of this project.
Yeah I screwed up. I didn't know everyone was going crazy here, I read through a few pages and...damn.

Next week I should have a huge amount of these boards which will have a jumper wire on the USB hub chip when I ship them out.
These will be assembled by hand by me so don't expect massive amounts to be available right away, I will put 10-20 boards up every other day since I need to build them all by hand and that takes alot of time.

First Kudos @Helder !
For me, posting 3 articles on ebay and then get em shipped is already a pain so i don't want to imagine what you are goin tru. So big thanks!
I missed out on the 2.0 boards due to time differences, been lurking since to get my hands on the now sold out batch.
No luck either, soldout after 5 mins :<
It's no biggie as i still have to finish 2 inprogress GBZ's, one with the 1.4 board and one with a simple button pcb & teensy.
I just wondered if there's a more fair way to get the boards out?
- restricting sales to 1 per person
- reserving boards for ppl using the timestamps of their repective posts in the topic
- priority to people that contribute actively to sudomod (share builds, hardware, software, tips, guides and not just ninjaing hardware and then never look back but rather build their "own" sudomod blog without even relinking/giving credit to wermy…)
- alternating the times of "releases" to make it fair to ppl in different timezones
