Dang, this is awesome. I've been lurking the VFET threads for awhile, and waiting for something like this to come along... but now I just hope I'm lucky enough to get the opportunity to purchase. 
@6L6, yeah, I may end up buying an old one just for parts if I'm one of the lucky lotto winners!

Not only with the other SIT design(s), but they will work with the upcoming non-SIT output stages as well.
Thanks. As mentioned, this is being offered "at cost" as a measure of appreciation to say "thank you" to our most passionate members.
Prototypes have been paid for by myself and Nelson. No profit will be made and any extra money left in the kitty donated.
They are two issues which have special meaning for me. Both have touched the lives of diyAudio members and their families in the past and without going in the details, have also hit close to home in my own life.
We've made 200 specially for the VFETs as a limited run, and will see how far they go.
Priority for those 200 will firstly go to people who purchased kits containing VFETs, then people who already have VFETs. Some people might not buy the chassis. If there are any left over they will be made for public sale once those two groups have had their needs met.
After that, we have some variations on the design to be released in the future that can be used for other amps or variations (probably without the VFET text so it has a wider appeal).
@Analogico
I'm only across the offering which is described on the store page and have no details or pricing on any future variations.

If you're asking about the actual mechanics of purchase, a PM will be sent to confirm your store email address and if you want the parts kit, chassis, or both, and a draft invoice will be emailed to you where you can checkout (choose where to ship, how to ship, and make payment).

Thanks! Trying my best to achieve that goal...

Will the second batch of 90 also be held in the form of a lottery?
Trying to keep my hopes up... lol
