Ditto, order placed. Now to figure out how to sell my other scart switchers, including how to sell the ones that are in a different country than I am :)

Excuse me,
How to place an order for gscartsw_lite now and get it with gcompsw together? I'm planned to buy it too next week.

Pre-ordered a lite to go with my current Gscart. But now, given the fact that the lite is more of a "Gscart mark 2" with its improved? sync circuitry, I'm wondering whether to use the lite as my main and daisy chain my current Gscart off it.. Instead of my original plan of chaining the lite to my current Gscart... decisions decisions :)

Same. Although the design is so good that I wonder if cross chaining might work. You wouldn't get sync regeneration on the mark 1 vga port for devices plugged directly in there. But if it doesn't have a port preference, then I imagine you could sync regen everything when drawing off the mark 2 output while still having everything available to the mark 1 vga.

It's probable that it would get into a feedback loop if you transitioned from outside sources being active to no outside sources being active.

But de-energized transitioning to the first active outside source might work.

There is no automatic order combining, I have gcompsw's here, are you willing to wait 6 weeks to get both at the same time?

I'm in the same boat. I would like two of each if possible to save on shipping. I don't mind waiting 6 weeks.

Same here: I just ordered the gscart lite and would like to combine shipping with the upcoming gcompsw, I don't mind waiting as long as it takes.

Should I PM you with the details of my order?

Did anyone receive any sort of email confirmation after they placed their order? I didn't receive anything at all and was concerned, not even knowing if it went through. It would be nice to get some sort of receipt to confirm that we entered our shipping address correctly and that the order was successfully placed.

You're transferred to order success page upon completion. You will also get a paypal receipt by email if this option is enabled. Or just log in to your paypal and see if there is a transaction.

I'd like that too if possible, especially once combined with the gcompsw!

I mark $100 per package, that's what I get from insurance if the package is lost.

I was wondering the same thing and I'd be happy to wait however long is needed to get the component switcher if it makes shipping easier on your end.

Guys, if anyone wants gcompsw / gscartsw_lite shipping combined it should be specified when making gcompsw order, when ordering there is a custom message field where you can let me know.
Telling me in advance doesn't help much, there have to be a gcompsw order first!
gcompsw's will be available next week, I'm soldering and testing the units currently.

Is there any way to preorder the component switch? I'm in a different time zone and want to avoid missing out :)
