NoNameFlightPCB-only means PCB-only. Here is a list of components required for full Ergodox (without case and keycaps) http://ergodox.org/Hardware.aspx . I think that a PCB and components sale will be to close to a full Ergodox kit. About customs declarations I guess it's truly understandable, even if I tried to corrupt you ahah! It does not matter so much, but in the end if my package get stoped by customs I will pay over $300 for my Ergodox. I truly hope that there will be no problems with either Customs or with parts. Are there softwares or other solutions to configure our own layout instead of the layout configurator (which is great)? @Mark: There is a project of making a tiny Ergodox (link 1). The micro Ergodox will be about this (link2) size. It may be nice that MassDrop involve into this project in order to sell both size Ergodox.

JulianFRYou can make layouts directly in source[1] (or see [2] if you wana stick with rev-1 of the firmware, which the configurator uses) - but that's not for everyone. I don't know of any other options at the moment.

benblazakI'll deal with it, just need to get the knowledge for use it in the right way. So it's time for me to learn to code, but it doesn't look too scary ! Maxrunner @Maxrunner who got the aluminium case version of Ergodox tell that the case don't fit perfectly with the PCB. Moreover they said that the top aluminium layer is very sensible to scratches. But yeah, it really looks nice that way. You could probably fix it with some nice vinyl stickers. I've solve my problem about "ninja labels" keycaps (side labeled keycaps).

MaxrunnerThe aluminum case is not likely to ever be offered again; aside from the unacceptable major quality issues from the first run, see Mark's response below from Jun. 23, 2013. Anyone who REALLY wants a full aluminum case or even just a custom top plate of any material can make one readily enough, either using the provided acrylic plate(s) as a template or using Litster's .dxf file posted here: http://ergodox.org/Downloads.aspx

MarkI can raise my order to 8 PCBs (sure, depending on the price) if you think it will help to get the group buy earlier. Thanks by the answer. I'm kinda impatient waiting for this new group buy Gosh!

agodinhost- I'm kinda impatient waiting for this new group buy Replace "I'm" with "Everyone's" and "kinda" with "very" and then you've got the right sentiment. Glad to see the excitement though :)
