Important
You cannot combine Ocean Freight and Air Express items in the same order. Each individual order has to contain either all Ocean Freight or all Air Express items. This is because they arrive at different times
All of the extra knobs will be imported via Air Express. You can add that item in both Air Express and Ocean Freight orders
All the add-ons and accessories are compatible across all editions of Zoom65 to date.
Import Methods
Zoom65 Essential Edition will be imported from China into Canada via two separate shipping methods:
Ocean Freight
Arrives to Canada via a ship. Takes 45-70 days in transit. This is the standard import method used in most keyboard / deskmat group buys. It's much cheaper than Air Express but takes much longer to arrive.
All units ordered via Ocean Freight are scheduled to ship out Wuque Studio around mid December, 2022 and should arrive at Mech.land around March, 2023
Air Express
Arrives to Canada via a cargo airplane, takes 7-10 days in transit. This import method is very expensive, as such some of the items brought over via Air Express have a markup added to cover the extra expenses
All units ordered via Air Express are scheduled to ship out Wuque Studio around mid December, 2022 and arrive at Mech.land around late December, 2022 - early January, 2023.
