Round 5 and Round 6 kits for sale!

nnc-tlb · 22 Dec 2016, 08:37

I'm lurking for a while. I recently got an Ergodox Infinity with Cherry MX Browns.
I never bought a keycap set.
I want to compile a keycap set from R5/R6 leftovers.

While browsing the leftover pages I got a few questions.

R5
What is the difference between ?
G/BLANK/R3U100C/GREY (blank center-nub key | $1)
BLANK/R3U100C/GREY (blank key cnub (grey) | $2)

and what between ?
HONEY/NUMROW/GREY (Numrow 0-9 grey kit | $19)
HONEY/NUMROW/GREY/E (Numrow 0-9 grey kit | $15)

G/MODSYM150/KIT4/GREY (ModSym 150 (row 3) | $1)
But Picture states 'row 2', wrong picture linked ? what is correct ?

G/MODSYM150/KIT11/GREY (row 2, from regular order | $6)
Missing Picture, what is included ?
what means "from regular order" ? from a pre R5 GB ?

"center nub" or "cnub" means tactile bump ?

Command HONEYB to combine R5 and R6 shipment is still valid ?

R6
The R6 leftovers pages says "in production".
Currently shipping of R6 is underway as I read here, so leftovers should be in stock by now ?
Or some colors are and some are not ?

Phase 1 is shipping, i.e. cream, purple, blue, and SPH grey. White, black, and grey (and red, I think?) are in Phase 2, and are yet to be produced. So any Phase 1 leftovers should be available now.

I've updated the list and added a new kit:

This is the ideal kit for people who order the
HONEYB/ALPHA/CADET/S
(with |\ key)
and
HONEYB/ALPHA/CADET/T
(without |\ key)
kits which come with the too small legends!

If you need cursor keys, these are still available:
HONEYB/CURSORS/BLUE
HONEYB/CURSOR/R34/VIOLETT
HONEYB/CURSOR/R24/CADET
HONEYB/CURSOR/R43/BLUE
HONEYB/CURSOREXTRA/VIOLETT
HONEYB/CURSYM/BLUE
HONEYB/CURSYM/VIOLETT
HONEYB/CURSYM24/VIOLETT
HONEYB/CURSYM/CADET

7bit, any chance you could sort out what I PM'd you about while you're online?

I wish 7bit updates the orders soon, I've added a black numpad almost 2 weeks ago and no payment invoice was sent yet.

Did you recently send a WASSUP message to 7bot?

Did you send to 7BOT and not 7BIT?

Sometimes i send offensive messages to 7bit that were meant to be for 7bot...

It was to 7bot, no mistake. I just received an updated invoice to pay for other keycaps, but no numpad.

Wodan · 22 Dec 2016, 17:06

What was the kit name of the numpad?

vinnycordeiro · 22 Dec 2016, 17:09

HONEYB/NUMPAD/BLACK

It isn't available anymore now, problem is that I ordered that by December 11. :S

Short question: when are the round 6 leftovers ready for shippment? Are these keys the unsold stuff of the SP shippment which is currently shipping by 7bit (so will they ship when all the old orders are shipped sometime in Januar?) or will this leftovers ship in far future because they are still in the usa or not even produced yet?

SPH, BLUE, VIOLETT, CREAM, CADET, HYPER7: these are all here and ship right now.

WHITE, GREY, RED, BLACK: will be produced really soon!

Although I'm only selecting from the leftovers right now, my invoice already has 2 entries for shipping fee:
|Shipping costs | | | | 7.00
|Shipping costs R6 | | | | 7.00
And if I order from R7, I bet there will be a third entry for Shipping costs R7, i.e. another 7€.

Is there any secret to reduce / combine shipment?

I'm a newbie but from wikipage:

If you want combined shipping with Round 5 leftovers, just order the HONEYB kit, be sending a pm to [7bot]:
HONEYB

It's a little bit confusing.
Just HONEYB as a single command to the bot ?
Or choose the equivalent HONEYB-Kit not the HONEY-kit ?

Is R5 aka HONEY renamed to HONEYG ?

Menuhin · 22 Dec 2016, 20:45

HONEYB is the prefix to the set in Round 6 leftover, there is also HONEY and HONEYG in Round 5 leftover

So a set from HONEYB can be HONEYG/SIXTYBASE/BLUE, you just send a message to 7bot with whatever title and put "HONEYG/SIXTYBASE/BLUE 1" in the message body to order 1 of the HONEYG/SIXTYBASE/BLUE kit.

What puzzled me is that combining the orders of Round 5 leftover (HONEY/ or HONEYG/) and Round 6 (HONEYB/) leftover apparently has doubled the shipment for me from 7€ to 14€.
And what confuses more is that at the end of the invoice e-mails sent to me has a long list of "Preorders for Round 7 (ALGOL)" and "Preorders for Round 6 (HoneyB)" and I believe some of those in "Preorders for Round 6 (HoneyB)" have been produced and are readily available to ship out, aren't they? So it should have said "Orders for Round 6 (HoneyB)" instead of "Preorders". Or that they aren't so there has to be an extra cost of 7€ shipment for them to be shipped later with the 2nd phase of Round 6?
I am fine with that as long as Round 7 shipping cost (when I order later) will be combined to that additional 7€ shipping, so I don't pay any shipping for Round 7 when I add some of them to the list. But I want to know if that is the arrangement.

what invoice number is shipping? At some point incompetence becomes criminal fraud, and a year after taking my money and delivering no product, you guys are getting pretty close to that point.

Hahahahahahaha
First GB? 7Bit takes forever, but he's legit - I'm typing on me R5s right now. Try to remember this is one guy doing everything, not a company. Remember that this is not his full-time gig - it's a labor of love for the community.

Your keys are phase 2, they're still to be produced. 7bit said a couple posts back that they'd be produced "soon".

Yes, that's how it used to work. Not sure this still works for the current round, but you can at least give it a try.

!!!
I am further confused (or actually enlightened?)
That means if I order anything from the Round 5 leftover and Round 6 leftover list, even when a kit is listed as "leftover" but if that belongs to any of the "WHITE, GREY, RED, BLACK" categories, then it is actually not yet produced.
e.g. anything "HONEY/.../GREY" or "HONEYB/.../GREY" or "HONEY/.../BLACK" etc on the R5 leftover and R6 leftover.
Will be shipped only some time in the future when it is finally produced.
And that is the reason I have 2 separate shipping fees because something I'm ordering from the "leftover" list is actually in the not-yet-existing pre-orders.

Is that correct / probably?
