Would the ALGOL_TKLASCII_VIOLETT be among the first made also?

Is it possible that there will be a UK kit in violettcream as this is the most successful colour?

zslane · 16 May 2017, 18:46

How does that differ from the Round 6 keycaps? What makes it an "ALGOL" set?

If you go with all four, does that mean (TKL)CADET/GREY and RGB/CREAM would be in the first wave of production?

If so, when can we find out whether that will in fact be the case? Before May 31st?

How to order? I sent another message to 7bot today. No reply to my other 3 messages? This is frustrating. Can you please help me?

Oblotzky · 27 May 2017, 21:32

Hmm, I submitted an order, received an invoice in my mail 15 minutes later but realized I picked the wrong alphas kit. Sent CLEARALL and then submitted the new order but didn't receive anything for over an hour now, ans WASSUP is also not getting a response

The bot is inconsistent and takes different amounts of time to respond. Patience is key to all 7bit madness

just ask,Which color was first produced of round 7 ？

Griffy · 29 May 2017, 13:07

Oh noes, another chance to get the cream/violett.

We have no idea, we don't even know who is producing Round 7 or if it will be produced.

First post says boldly

update:
The first kits to be produced will be:
VIOLETT and CREAMVIOLETT

The possibility that this run might not even happen is really concerning though. Did SP update their statement? Last I remember was "Round 6 Phase 2 will be the last of the round orders for now" or something like that

RadikulRAM · 30 May 2017, 00:17

Guys, I'm looking to buy 14 175u red blank, 2 200u red blank, 40 100u white blank (or 38 100u white blanks with 2 that have indentations).

What's my best hope? R5/6 doesn't seem to have 175u's in stock/production, will R7 have any blanks? Waiting period will be how many months?

Thank you!

There is no definitive answer to this question at this time.

Your best bet is to inquire with SP directly.

Or not. In fact, they even say that on their page.

Please do not email Melissa to find out the status of a Group Buy. The Group Buy organizer can update you on the status from their communication with Melissa.

I meant inquire about purchasing individual caps, which they sell via pimpmykeyboard, sorry for the confusion.

krutmob · 31 May 2017, 01:06

Yeah you can probably get those individual blanks from PMK. That's how I got my SA spacebar matching Round 6. (although the stems are kinda shit.)

xantiema · 12 Jun 2017, 18:47

I am relatively new in the scene. What does 'Algol' represent? And will the above mentioend Violet colors be available again in the upcoming Round 8?

krutmob · 12 Jun 2017, 19:28

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ALGOL

Round 8 does not exist. This might be the first time I've seen someone post the words "Round 8."

mecano · 14 Jun 2017, 12:30

Round 8 will be called Abacus and will be orange (OAS) cream and grey.

It's never too early to start the hype.

How can I order keyboard complete kit with blank keycaps?

mecano · 17 Jun 2017, 11:30

keyboard kit : group-buys-f50/cherry-mx-taking-pre-ord ... t=cherrymx
blank keycaps for round7 are said to be planned but not selling yet.

This is what appears on my invoice. Is there no money collector for Google Wallet? How do I proceed from here?

That's correct. Currently there are no collectors for Google Wallet or PayPal. At the moment, 7bit can only accept SEPA funds.

Oh no! What can I do if I'm in the US? My invoice also says that the summer sellout discount is until today. Can my discount still apply if I'm trying to figure out the payment process?

Get a SEPA invoice and we can figure this out
