Fatar Synthesizer Keybeds GROUP BUY THRU 31 DECEMBER 2023

GROUP BUY RE-OPENED THRU 31 DECEMBER 2023

We are re-ordering FATAR keybeds for the shop and will re-open the group buy to offer you SPECIAL SAVINGS when you order in advance

Based on past history, these could take until lid-February or even March to be delivered to us, so please plan accordingly. 

For this limited time we'll offer the keybeds at *our cost* plus a modest markup to cover actual inbound shipping and customs to the US (NOT CHEAP!)

IMPORTANT: FATAR does not finalize pricing until an order is placed. The Group Buy prices here reflect *our best estimate* of the actual cost, plus inbound shipping, customs, and outbound packaging for safe transort. IF THE ACTUAL TOTAL COST IS HIGHER THAN THE GROUP BUY PRICE YOU PAY, WE WILL INVOICE YOU FOR THE DIFFERENCE. Equally, if the actual total cost ends up less, we will refund you the difference. Our goal is neither to make nor lose money for this Group Buy. 

Outbound shipping to you will be a function of your checkout via the webstore and your will be determined by location, weight, shipping service etc

WE HAVE LEARNED A LOT ABOUT HOW TO SHIP THESE SAFELY (AND HOW *NOT* TO SHIP THEM SAFELY). There is cost for secure and strong packaging built in to the group buy price to account for this. It will also be built in to the retail price after the group buy. Pay a little more for the right packaging now and save both of us the trouble of replacement parts, damage claims and the like. 

Inquire about custom configurations or specs. For those awaiting replacement keys from the last group buy order due to shipping damage, those are being shipped out next week.

To our UK and EU friends: while we would be happy to fill any group buy orders for you, it’s likely that the exchange rate + shipping charges will make these quite costly; we apologize we can’t do more in that regard. At the moment we are not aware of any UK or EU suppliers for these but if you know of any please let us know. 

These keybeds make use of a 20-pin micromatch ribbon cable and matching header on the project PCB; these are available separately and not included with the keybeds.
