They also don't let you charge a surcharge for using their service, because they want to hide from people how expensive they are.

However we can absolutely still accept PayPal, you just need to ask by sending an email to contact@diyaudiostore.com with what you want, and we'll manually create an invoice for you to pay, using PayPal. In that case there will be a percentage based "manual processing fee", but of course not a "surcharge", which would be against the PayPal rules.

Thanks for that explanation. Useful to know. And your philosophy sounds entirely fair. I'm sure I can handle the "risk" of using my credit card.

When is the next batch of ACA going to be released? Thank you.

I'm wondering if there are any plans for the store to carry 5U 500mm cases?

Thanks,
Dennis

I'd say after Burning Amp, with a probably shipping date of Nov 15th.

Not at this stage.

I have been looking for a good passive preamp with buffer PCB, and was considering the PassDiy B1, but heard the Mesmerizer version is more popular. However, when I checked at the store, it said the PCB boards were all sold out. Will you be restocking them? If so, do you have a rough idea of when they will be available?

Thanks,

Kendra
