Final 5 days! It looks like the Canadian one fell short of targets. Short of a miracle, I'll issue refunds to those users unless they make alternative arrangements.
There may be an option for EU sales, but I'm out of time to entertain it for now. We'll talk about it in April. For now, the store will go offline on 3/20 at around 2PM Eastern Time, and I'll place an order the following week with our providers. We've thus far raised just shy of $1400 USD for site projects.

2 hours remaining!
RE: Mouse Pad Group Buy is ON! - Raion - 03-20-2023
All right I'm going to cut this off this evening only because I'm not actually at home at the moment but I wanted to thank everybody who has purchased and I will be following up hopefully in the next week with details on the order placement.
Depending on timing some of it might get here before VCF or not but I have to talk to my contact at the company and figure that out.
RE: Mouse Pad Group Buy is ON! - Raion - 03-21-2023
They say the entire order can arrive before VCF with all haste. I need to confirm this but we're processing the order and it should be hopefully ordered by Friday, barring any credit card shenanigans.
RE: Mouse Pad Group Buy is ON! - Raion - 03-21-2023
If you are planning to be at VCF East and I've not already arranged it please let me know so I can bring your order with me and save us some time to get it to you.
RE: Mouse Pad Group Buy is ON! - Raion - 03-25-2023
Our mouse pads are on the way. Thankfully due to the volume we were able to score nice discounts and free shipping from our awesome producers.
Once they arrive I will work as quick as I can to get out orders to the West Coast/midwest folks first since I know most of you aren't gonna be at VCF
RE: Mouse Pad Group Buy is ON! - Raion - 03-29-2023
Waiting on shipping for the mouse pads. Hopefully they arrive before VCF but the distributor assured me they will be sent via FedEx.
RE: Mouse Pad Group Buy is ON! - Raion - 04-05-2023
Shipment has begun as of Monday, I don't know if they will get here in time. The distributor apologized up and down to me, and offered various excuses. I certainly hope that it will arrive, and I want to emphasize that the company was professional and communicative about the delays. I have nothing bad to say about them.
I am mildly frustrated that it took so long but credit card companies are not easy to deal with especially when you are talking about making a deal with a company in Hong Kong.

Unfortunately I am not going to be able to make it to VCF. This is a last minute thing but unfortunately I was unable to secure a rental due to the fault of nobody at all except Hertz.
There have been several indications to me that it might not have been a good idea to go, such as several of my friends dipping out and just the general disposition of everything. I have canceled my hotels and decided not to go this year.

I don't blame you, after all the decades of my life I've spent living in hotels while traveling for my job, the sight of any random hotel sign while I'm out in wandering around in public makes me want to puke. 😝
