That's really good news! But I'm getting reminders about invoices I already paid. Should I be worried? My order no is 0951.

You really need worry about it. My order no is 0982 and I have received the Confirmation

Nah, you're good. The bot just wants you to buy more.

Thanks!

BTW, 7bit, since we can expect there to be at least a two month delay, after phase 2 is first completed, for SP to make corrections, I would like to recommend that phase 1 keycaps be shipped out as soon as you have them sorted, and not wait for phase 2. I realize that 9/30 looks real close to 8/18, but we know that's just an illusion.

7bit has already said that he'll ship Phase 1 when he has it and won't wait for phase 2. Although my entire order is in phase 2. :'(

Yes, I agree with you. Also, from a logistics point of view, it is a good idea to have the first batch done before the rest comes in.

Add the order has been completed to pay, why not receive payment confirmation email?

Have you ever thought about just going Berzerkfan and just pour all keycaps into one huge bathtub, stirr them and then send send everyone a few shovels worth of random keycaps?

Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night screaming with this picture in my head.

7bit does this. He calls them "grab bags".

[tofagerl]

I wonder if I'll get my cadet TKL before Jukebox...
Holy shit, I'll have four full SA sets... I'M RICH, BITCH!

[Salisen]

Pleased to note that my Round 4 replacement vertical '+' keys arrived this week!

[makesi168]

I want to buy HONEYB/LOTUS/RED、HONEYB/KBDRUNNER/RED 、HONEYB/F1TOF12/GREY.

So I'm putting together an order for leftovers to fill out a planck in space cadet caps, the order is ready, I'm just waiting for my paycheck, but I noticed that the text that I have to put with my payment says R5, is this an error or should I not worry?

This is my first time participating in a group buy so I'd appreciate some input.

Also I was wondering if the caps will be sent from Germany as it seems 7bit is from there? That would be great for me since I don't have to pay import taxes, but I can't seem to find anywhere in the wiki where it's stated.

[zslane]

R5 is correct. I don't think 7bit ever got around to modifying the 7bot to recognize an "R6" token instead.

7bit is in Germany, yes, and all the keycaps get sent to him. He then sorts them by order and sends them to customers. Ideal for other EU customers. Kinda silly for someone like me who has relatives who live less than 30 minutes drive from SP. At the end of the day, however, I don't care what route they take, I just want my damn keycaps...

[Virtureal]

Thanks for the quick reply. Looking forward to getting the cap and seeing what other people are going to use them for!

Well, once I get my CADET caps in hand they will go on my Varmilo VA108, and it will look like this:

7bit can you please answer to my PMs?
Thanks.

[tofagerl]

Is that a render, or that horrible "other" set?

Beautiful.

Can't wait (not true)

Looks great, I think it's a bit weird how the space cadet had black legends on the bottom modifiers and white on the function keys etc in the top, but it looks good.

How did you make that?

[tofagerl]

The entire keyset is weird. If you start pulling on that thread, you'll end up going through LISP manuals from the sixties before you know it...

Great render! But on my monitor the blue in your render looks much darker than the blue color of my R4/R5 caps. Sadly I really like that blue in my monitor

[zslane]

No, I don't own Symbiosis. What you're seeing is a 3D render.

I do, however, have Round 4 SPH on my keyboard just to hold me over. But it's no Space Cadet...

Hi all, I'm planning to buy a few bits and bobs from the R5 leftovers (and maybe even from the R6 preorder leftovers too). I've got a few questions though:

1. What do the astrisks mean? e.g.

Code: Select all

G/NUMERIC2/GREY (Numeric row 3 keys* | $12)

2. What does the G at the beginning of some of the codes mean? I think it means grab bag. E.g. what's the difference between the following:

Code: Select all

G/BLANK/R2U200/WHITE (blank key (same as row 4) | $0.5)
BLANK/R2U200/WHITE (blank key (white) | $3)

3. Following on, what exactly is a grab bag? I'd thought it meant that it was a random selection, but looking at following makes me think that you get all the keys displayed.

Code: Select all

G/NUMERIC2/GREY (Numeric row 3 keys* | $12)

4. Is this actually with a centre nub?

Code: Select all

G/BLANK/R2U100C/BLACK (blank key | $0.5)

5. Can I pay with PayPal?

[astonlau]

Is there any payment confirmation/update of this week?
