If you put an order through i will take one or two off you. Is it much more for an express service? :mrgreen:
It looks like it going to be around £2.80 for the board and i should get them on express which is 4 days delivery from china to UK. Then how ever much it costs to post 1st or 2nd class. looking to do the order tomorrow.
Can i buy 3 boards?

I'll discount people if you get more than 5 at once. I will accept paypal and would prefer gift option but we can do standard sale but paypal fees will be added to total price.
I'll take two boards, when will you require payment and how should we coordinate?

I will create a sell thread soon as well so we can discuss about the cost and stuff there!
I guess you're in the US? I'm in the US. I'll be waiting on my usb controller to come in tomorrow. If I have any problems with the Usb controller I'll be sure to pick one of these up.

I'm going to setup a paypal buy now link to have people simply click it and put their paypal info and it will setup the purchase like as if it you bought something on ebay for example and this also simplifies things for me since Paypal offer buyer protection and give me your shipping info.

I see there is a sub forum here to offer sales so I'll make a thread there and post the link. if people want to prepay and guarantee their boards I can do that or if people want I can sell them once I have them on hand. The decision is up to you guys and i'll go with what people want, and I have ordered 30 since I assumed more people might want them and this way people don't miss out on them this time around.

PCB Color is red and I made some Silk Screen text larger on the buttons for aesthetics only, I added some ground points in the corners in case someone needed an extra GND point for the L & R buttons or anything else that might need ground.

Don't contact me about obtaining my board files (as you will not get them). If my Boards or PCB Kits are sold out, they will be restocked as soon as I can get them and there is demand for them. You can join the mailing list on my Website to be notified when they are available.

Hey man are they the exact same ones as @1461748123 has posted? just making sure these will fit the GBZ case and work well.

And what is ETA for them to arrive to you and how much will it be total with shipping?

Yes same board he sells, I used the same schematic and board files and added the 2 GND points and generated my own Gerber files. ETA is late next week, it depends when board house is done making the boards but when I order on weekends it's usually shipped out on Monday or Tuesday.
