Last time we tried this, Elite Keyboards didn't want to cooperate with Massdrop. They are the sole distributor of these keyboards in the US and don't really see any reason that they should participate in a group-buy.

byarmisDo you know if any mention was made of the additional sales (and profit) this would garner that would otherwise not be there? The idea of massdrop isn't to make the item's profit margin shrink to nil – it's to gather a bunch of folks willing to buy the thing were it a bit cheaper.
I wish I had any clue what their current sales numbers were – I think if you played the numbers, a compelling case could be made. (Of course I say this not knowing what the original email looked like.)

vermiculusHopefully MD has a good contact lead in the Topre market. Looks promising though that more Topre keyboards will come soon.
