You are not alone in having received some weirdly printed caps and not received some at all. I'd suggest you contact massdrop and let them sort the issue out.

SP's pretty good at making mistakes too. (The mirror image caps are surely their doing.) But putting Massdrop on top seems to be compounding trouble…

Everyone with errors: get in touch with them! That's the seller's job to fix.

Haha ! employees must pretty enjoyin' this end of year in MD office I think.

But I'm in hope and let me say already that red color for alt legends please far better from the light blue one of the R1 !

@vsev: I got the same reply when I contacted them mid-December. Wasn't too bad then, they got in touch a couple of days later. Guess it could take a few extra days now though...

Finished to check all kits and there are mirrored ones same as Greyluke.
Also missing all RGB Icons kit.

And finally caps missing from common (2caps), iconpro mods(1cap) and INT kit 10 caps from each of two ones I ordered..
Post a very pleasant and clear message with pictures to support at MD..
I'm quite rageous but I'll wait to this find an fine issue about what I've no doubt though !

I just mounted this new cool keycap set and I realized two disappointing things:

1) I miss this single keycap from the International Set:

2) These two keycaps were printed the wrong way (i.e. as a mirror image, so to say):

Image

So I am willing to trade these 3 keycaps. I have pretty much the whole International Set (except from Italian keycaps), most of Apple Kit and Text Modifier kit.

Please contact me for trade!
Hi guys,
Exactly the same here. I'm missing the same keys. Anyone willing to trade with those depicted in attached image (those marked with an X are not available while those marked with a circle have been misprinted) ? Also, is there anybody willing to sale me a text backspace key (see image attached)? Mine broke while mounting. It would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Probably a bit of a long-shot as I'm assuming most of the trading has died down, but I'm looking for the Numpad set. Like an idiot, I bought the Mono-Legend set by accident instead of the Numpad set. Attached is what I have currently to trade for:

Image
Magenta is what I have to trade.

I also have an old Cherry 8200 POS (MX Browns) if anyone is interested:
Image
KUL Keycaps temporarily on board. I have original keys as well.

Otherwise, if not open to trade, I'd be happy to pay for the Numpad set at a reasonable price. PM me :)

EDIT: Mono Legend Sold / Numpad no longer needed.

I did contact MD, but I was eager to sort this out as soon as possible, so I tried to find an alternative. Furthermore, I read somewhere several complaints about MD customer care (reply delays or no replies at all, etc...).

Anyway, you guys are right, it's MD responsibility to fix this and I'm sure they will.

Happy New Year everybody!

Have finally the caps on my desk, customs did charge me 45 EUR and will calculate the differens from actual value to the declared value and try to get an refund.

However, didn't receive my RGB Icon pack either and wonder if any of you have received it until now?

Also do any of you have the template/layput of the international kit in order for me to check if I have all the correct keys at hand and be able to put some up here for trade?

You're not really encouraging people to actually speculate on keycaps from group buys, are you? :evil:

Nope - not my intention, I am more of a desparate nature trying to solve my own misstake quickly

Why not wait for an MD answer, if you did complain at all ?
(Can provide this blueISO enter from my own pack if..)

_robban

07 Jan 2015, 10:14

Can only speak for myself and my order, all caps that I ordered seems to be ok and additional currently missing RGB pack are on their way in separate shipping.

The numpad part and blue iso enter that I now want to order - I did totally forgot to order and my own misstake :oops:

vsev - If you are willing to trade/sell a blue iso enter just let me know what you want for it.

I am looking to buy the 3u spacebar from the Specialty Keyboards Kit for my Minila Air:

It seems nigh impossible to get a 3u key in DSA otherwise. PMK only goes up to 2.75u..[/s]

Edit (29 Jul 2015): have acquired this via Massdrop.

Still looking for an Granite Numpad kit, no one who has anything and willing to sell or trade?

I do have some granite kits such as RGB icon, Extra OS, Apple, International (all but swedish part), DT and GH singles but also for some full ducky nordic PBT kits such as the Cream Cheese and Green, Gold on Black, Gold on Black Ninja style, that can be used as part of a trade.

Are you interested in trade only, or you would sell some? If you were interested in sell I am interested in the following keys:

Your greek letters, the 1.75u CONTROL -two keys-, the 1.25u FN -two keys-

I realize this is an old post, but if you still have a 1.75u Control (stepped or not), and a 1.75u text Shift, I would be very interested in purchasing them.

I think that row is missing on every INT set...

By the way, did someone have a chance to sort this out with MD support? I wrote an email to them on December 26th and they replied to me on January 7th (X-mas holidays) saying that they were trying to fix this with SP, but then i got no news from them.

Just a quick update. MD support just sent me an email telling me that they are about to send me the replacement keycaps.
