Yes, they are your fall-back should you mess them up.

Hyperfuse GMK order went in today with 618 sets ordered apparently. In my relatively short experience that's huge for a group buy, but I'm wondering if 7bit could tell us how it compares to the number of Round 5 orders (counting full sets only)?

I think there are no 'full sets' but he ordered enough to make each set. Like there are 2 Hyper7 kits, but the rest of the kit is scattered through a whole bunch of other kits and individual keys.

Yes, it would take some calculating to get a rough estimate... I was just curious :)

I've given up on GMK, because I like sphericals more and they don't have the legends I need.

Yslen, I feel you. I have to wonder if Round 5 is one of the largest if not the largest single GB.

GMK? Ha. We want PBT!

A while back, Round 4 (all of it, including SPH) was bigger than Round 5. I don't know if that milestone was crossed since.

Has 7bit ever done a buy for PBT caps?

Nope. Each one of his GBs tends to be different than the last. For instance: where are the cylindricals? Before Round 4 SPH, he was 100% cylindrical. But with Round 5 he swore them off entirely.

Being limited to SP, his next GB would have to be either PBT DSA or more doubleshot ABS SA. But they burned him so badly this round, I'd like to see him take his bulk orders somewhere else, and widen our palette!

But ain't getting it. Not from SP anyway.

If this thread wasn't already infinite, I'd run a search just now to bring up the times 7bit and Matteo have said SP doesn't do PBT SA and has no plans to tool up for it.

Round 5 > Round 4 > Round 3
:cool:

Not sure about Round 5a.
:?

Maybe I should start a poll:
- Do you want your keyboard within 2015?
- Do you want more key caps than ever before?

If you want it done right, sometimes you have to do it yourself. ;)

The good thing about "this week" is it arrives every week, and "will ship next week", also applies every week ;-)

The only true reality are keycaps. There is nothing else but keycaps and one known as the 7bit. 7bit and keycaps are one. One is all.

I was away over the week-end and while I came back,
the closest distance between the key caps and me was just 3km!
:o
Spoiler:
If I had known that they are already there,
I could have come closer to take some pictures,
but then my average speed would have been spoiled.
