At first I was like... That CIA program still running?? Lol

Thanks for the heads up. Based upon his communications on a previous drop and getting rid of it at cost I knew it was not going to end well. Sad it has come to this since it was a very unique vendor communications wise.

Been ordering from this shop for years, way back when he was cutting foam himself with a cheap laser cutter. He leveled up with the rise of the hobby, bought an industrial cutter from China. China did what China does, fucked him, the machine didn't work. Fucked the store up for a good while (I'm sure some of you remember the delay in foam), he eventually found someone to cut the foam in Asia and that worked out well.

Seems some GBs didn't go well for him either, though I hear designers were also flakes.

Basically, dude made a proper go, things didn't work as planned. Now it kinda sounds like he is terminal, or at least sick enough that things like exits scams are probably the last of his worries.

Rough situation. And more stores will be closing I'm sure, this won't be the last. Still sucks to see. What other store would commission a freaking X-Files deskmat other than MKUltra? What I really loved was the conspiracy notes included with each order.

Good. They took my money and never sent me anything, never responded to emails. Hope their next business fails too.

I mean, what do you expect? There's way too many keyboard shops already and 80% of them barely have any stock with everything being a group buy or pre-order
