If there are non, white with black letters are fine too

There's a black key group buy over at geekhack. The keysets are mostly used. But if you want to check it out: http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?2321 ... ts-Round-2

I can almost taste the old school goodness. I think this might result in me spray painting a Filco case.

Of all the keyboards that I use regularly, I just realized that the only one that is wearing the keycaps that it came with is the WASD. I just can't resist tweaking on stuff.

Thanks, I'll have to have a look. Didn't realise that this gb was closed either.

Ascaii · 05 Nov 2011, 17:38

its not exactly closed, just im not taking preorders anymore^^.

Update:

9 sets ready
3 like new/new sets ready. Writing invoices now. I will be offering the like new sets as an upgrade for an additional 15€, limit 1 per person.

laggy-gaga · 05 Nov 2011, 17:55

wow
count me in for the upgrade~
may I split my 10 sets order into 5 and 5,
so laggy gets 1 extra and gaga gets one more.

How shiny are the ones that aren't like new?

agor · 05 Nov 2011, 19:43

I want an upgrade if it's possible

Ascaii · 06 Nov 2011, 02:01

Alright, updating now. The three upgrade sets I have now go to laggy-gaga, agor, hakhu. Will post more once I pull more caps. Agor...just for fairness, you will have to wait until it is your turn in the list.

002 · 06 Nov 2011, 07:08

Also keen to upgrade one of my two sets if possible please, Ascaii. I know I am basically at the bottom of the list so I don't like my chances but oh well

edit: Assuming you come across more 'like new sets' of course

reaper · 06 Nov 2011, 18:16

Same here. If you have any more "like new" condition, I'm down for upgrading my one and only set.

hashbaz · 07 Nov 2011, 04:59

Me too! I hope we can work something out so those of us at the bottom have a shot at future "like news".

Lenny_Nero · 07 Nov 2011, 06:39

Am I still stitt in with a chance for a set ?
as I said before dont care if they have shine as I just want them to use
cheers

Yes, I got no problem with that

Ascaii · 10 Nov 2011, 19:42

up.... I will assume people arent interested if I dont receive answer within a week and cancel their preorders.

tsangan · 10 Nov 2011, 19:54

pre order for extra sets you got in?

I'm interested in a set if you have any extras

t!ng · 10 Nov 2011, 23:56

Hey everyone, i have just registered in order to write this comment (future comments coming for sure). I would also be interested in a set of these double shots. So if there is a possibilty to get one ... someday... i'd be happy. Ascaii, i have read of you on computerbase.de-forum, too, knowing you are from Germany (Topic: Doubleshot-Group-Buy R4). So if you could send me one set of these - feel free to mail me your bank-data, since I am from Nordrhein-Westfalia (no bock auf paypal).

Cheers

I hope you realize these are ANSI layout. If you want German lyout sets I have those too...pm me which you need and we can talk

@jpm804 · 11 Nov 2011, 11:01

Ascaii - if there are cancellations and /or extra sets available I am interested for sure.

BiNiaRiS · 11 Nov 2011, 11:25

there are tons of us wanting these sets. i don't think he's just gonna put people down cause they post here.

Ascaii · 11 Nov 2011, 14:51

I am writing down people that voice their interest...but that doesnt mean they will get a set. What I will do is finish sending out preorders...after that I will see how many sets are left. Then, i will make a post for those sets with a date when I will start selling...I will try to write a pm with the link for the people that I have on my list. And by try I mean I will do it if im not too lazy or busy.

Ascaii · 12 Nov 2011, 23:44

just got back...after 7 hours of cap pulling with two paid helpers and 4 movies I now have 67 "normal" and 31 "like new" sets ready. Will type up more invoices when my fingers feel better. Picture is about half of the caps.

I also found several boards that have a cutout for a trackpoint, I will offer those sets for 20€ a pop as "downgrade option".
Im removing the 1 set per person limit on the "like new" sets.

tsangan · 13 Nov 2011, 02:21

Those keycaps look wonderful

I'm gonna upgrade my non-pre-ordered set

That is for sure a pile of caps, haha.

How bad are the worst sets? In term of shininess.

duq · 13 Nov 2011, 04:30

I would totally grab a few "bad" sets haha. Keep updated please

Some sets are shiny, most are not. Im surprised at the good shape of the caps in general, its most likely the fact that they were still in their original boxes.

laggy-gaga · 13 Nov 2011, 08:39

U got a PM

Taeyoung · 14 Nov 2011, 03:02

Just sent a PM.

demik · 14 Nov 2011, 08:09
