I think it’s great of Ric to provide this service to us, and charge the same price as the gold version (for NW at least)
with the added bonus of a custom logo for free! Nothing to complain about really, buy one if you want/need one,
if not then just pass on it.
Now if only Ric would reply to this thread, I’m sure there are many waiting for a reply before pulling the trigger!
To my understanding there's no picture at all. This is a pre-production pre-order and the actual black ones have not been produced yet, so there's nothing to take a pic of!
We can only hope that Ric is holding off on replies until he checks with his supplier about some of the items on our wish list. I don’t think he originally expected us not to jump on this with nothing other than a new color and U2 emitters. Most of us who would be interested in a king already have one and it will take more than a color change to invest in another one. Hopefully he is taking us seriously about better mode selection.
I don’t know for certain, but I’d bet that Ric read my recent poll regarding member interest in a black King.
82% of respondents indicated certain conditions must be met before they’d even consider buying one. Only 18% said they would buy one without conditions. The assumption going in was that it’d simply be a black version of the already existing gold model.
Anyway, I think that’s why RIC’s site says they’re only producing an initial batch of 199.
i have held off buying the gold SRK (mainly because of lack of funding. :bigsmile: ) and im just awaiting for Ric to start the sale again.
hope the delay is due to his efforts to get our wish list get granted.
