DSA Retro Set (SHIPPED!)

[Gilgam]

Have you considered that 24+24<60?
I want 2 small box.

yes! that is insane! And I suggested to use 2 small boxes instead of the med box. but that would add work to the packaging people and also more chances of error.

When i ordered GB3 i got 4-5 small boxes (small poxes ) without any question/problem.

payment by bank transfer is possible only directly to samwisekoi for big orders (+$350).

These americans look soooo complicated.
Is Geekhack Tea Party ?

[matt3o]

you know, this is completely out of my control.

[Acanthophis]

So it's Paypal then?

[matt3o]

I've got confirmation that under 400 pieces you'll get 2 small boxes. I will update pricing tomorrow.

So samwisekoi said
Value: Cost before shipping
then prepare yourself to pay 19% or 21% or whatever VAT

It is not always the case we have to pay.

All my Round 3 stuff went through without any trouble.

Hint 1: small packages get easier through than large packages.
Hint 2: don't send as gift and state a value of $25 and delcare that there are cheaply made plastic key caps inside.

This.

[pasph]

Unfortunately this is not what samwisekoi is going to do
But i may have misunderstood

[pasph]

Also another GH GB op have told me the same thing, no undervalue
From an initial price of $180 it will go to $300 to my doorsteps, the raw cost of caps is only 60% of the total amount
Now the Originative prices are really interesting
Order halved

[t!ng]

You are making me nervous...

[pasph]

Sorry
Now GH GBs aren't more affordable than Originative or, especially, GMK MOQ

[Acanthophis]

Yep, as I already said on GH.

My intial raw cost of $79.13 went up to $134.61 (also calculated 19% VAT, since sam is stiff about undervalue).
Also my last GB with SP...

[phinix]

If someone doesn't want it anymore, let me know.
I'm after ISO UK layout, TKL, so would need these kits:

- kit 1
- kit 3
- kit 5 (ISO)
- kit 12 (extras, with £ key etc)
- 6.25 space bar

[pasph]

I've just cancelled
kit 1
kit 12
6.25 space bar
Ask matt3o if you can take my place for them then you can expand your order to the others items

[tlt]

If you put the real cost on the package thats another 25% (including shipping cost) + ~$16 fee for me. I think the value is far less than the cost for this, It's practically useless plastic . Just put a field on the ordering form where we can enter the value like e.g. Tenso.com do.

[7bit]

Just find a proxy!

We still can all add kits.

If someone wants to delete the entire order, just post here and when you found some latecomer, change shipping address and e-mail address accordingly.


So stupid not to let people join in while it is still possible to order more for those who joined already!

I know it is not mat3o's fault ...

[Daniel]

payment by bank transfer is possible only directly to samwisekoi for big orders (+$350).

I'm okay with this, I will pay via paypal then.

[CeeSA]

This guy is takling about "international Mail-Fraud"....

I really have to think about, wether I deleting my order or not.

[matt3o]

PM me if you want to add an order. I'll try to sneak it

Also consider to merge order with others!

[matt3o]

I've updated the final cost (for the better)

The changes are:

1) 250 keys limit for small box (many have added multiple spacebars and mods, 250 seems legit)
2) 2 small boxes instead 1 medium for international orders

This had a big impact on overall pricing!

Have a look at your order now. Mine went down $15!

[7bit]

Now make sure that we can opt for uninsured shipping. And I can't immagine the plastic thingies are worth more than $25 per package!

[matt3o]

I'll ask Ron if he is willing to send untracked shipping when he wakes up

[pasph]

samwisekoi was clear about that

[Kurk]

..........
1) 250 keys limit (many have added multiple spacebars and mods, 250 seems legit)
..............

What do you mean by 250 keys limit?

[7bit]

samwisekoi was clear about that

According to matt3o's post one above yours, he was asleep when he said he will not state the true value of $25 per box.

[dirge]

Yeah if you mark what we're paying rather than what they are really worth we're going to be bent over by the import nazis

[matt3o]

he was not on skype so guessed he was sleeping...

[pasph]

So wait and hope

[matt3o]

we will do from GMK next time. US residents will know what it means paying $60 in shipping Just checked and a package from IT to US costs €40-42. From IT to EU $12 1kg, $15 2kg. All tracked shipping.

[zulios]

That seems a good idea. Hopefully we may get language kits with GMK, although this is going to be difficult. Especially now that both Lysol and vendors are already getting keycaps produced, I guess that demand will decrease drastically unless you come up with a great idea once again.
