Round 4 / packing (99.8%) / shipping (99.7%)

Netdewt · 10 Jul 2012, 01:51

I need a partial refund. Don't know what to do. I tried sending a PM to 7bit.

blighty · 10 Jul 2012, 02:56

I added on to my order. Does the shipping stay the same if you add 2x amount of keys as your original order?

No. Shipping depends on the price.

Partial refunds will be done at the end.

With the death of Geekhack I have not been around much but previously had an order in for a set of NOIR + MAC MODS + UK KIT but with the change to all symbols style I decided to cancel my order before the closing date by setting all units to 0.00 and this was confirmed and ok.

Still getting emails to purchase the keys so my question remains: Will I need to complete the purchase as the key sets appear to have been ordered? It's no problem as I will probably end up buying another cherry board in the near future anyway..

Just order as much as you want!

Hi;

I had a quick question. I was thinking of ordering some of the Noir/Standard or Round 3/TKL/Black keycaps to replace some or all of the keys on my 'das keyboard' Professional S.

Can anyone tell me if these key caps are the same 'height' as the ones I have now?

I ask just to make sure because I thought I was going to be able to use the keycaps from an old Cherry G81-8000HPBUS keyboard. I then discovered that these Cherry keys seem to have a lower profile than the keys I have on my das. (So they sit lower if mounted on that keyboard).

I was wondering what height I should expect from the group-buy keys if I ordered some.

Thanks;

They are the same height as Cherry. Cheap Filco key caps are different, so you should use key caps from my group buy!

Hi 7bit, I still haven't paid for my order yet. Is it too late to edit my order and submit a payment?

7bit · 11 Jul 2012, 20:54

Add as much as you can. You will get a notification to pay!

Since these will probaly sit lower to the case than the existing keys, do I need to worry about the keys with stabilizer bars? That is, should the existing bars work with the new caps?

Unless you take the wrong spacebar, everything will work out right.

Paid the rest to david

@7bit, have you placed the order to SP? I'm going to move to another country by the end of September. I'm worried that the key cannot arrive on time

.

7bit · 12 Jul 2012, 10:02

What kind of another country would that be?
(just pm me

)

Lamaboi · 12 Jul 2012, 15:14

I wired the rest last friday and received an invoice today again, what's up with that?

kain0079 · 12 Jul 2012, 15:58

I received an invoice on July 5. And the payment was completed.
But I received an invoice today again.
I need you to check and PM me.

Updates are only done once per week.

LOL!

You posted your own e-mail address.

Also, the invoice number should be sufficient.

Also, everyone knows that it is:

So, I'm thinking about placing an order for a Retro 87 key set with the RGBY symbols. My question is, what is the difference between: RETRO/TKLRGBYSYM & RETRO/TENKLESSRGBYSYM

Based on the wiki I think I would want the TKLRGBYSYM, but I cannot find any info on the other to confirm this.

Also, to get the light grey space bar to match the alpha keys, I would just order RETRO/SPACE?

Thanks for the help in advance, OddOne

Crap! Thanks. I wasn't thinking. Yeah, almost eveyone did it correctly. They were pretty good about it at first, but they are starting to get sloppy. I'm having to hunt for their invoice number in the rest of the text they type in the notes.

Everyone making payments... Please!!!!! This format, on a line all by itself. If you really need to convey any other information, put it on a new line...

RETRO/TENKLESSRGBYSYM is the same, except it covers more variants of tenkeyless keyboards.

Is there a minimum order size? I'm considering jumping in because I'd like to get a white keyboard for a Leopold FC200R (BLANK/SPACE/WHITE). Would I end up spending a ton on shipping for one key?

Also, are the prices for the complete sets still decreasing as more people commit buy, or are they fixed at this point?

Sorry if these questions have been answered, I'm new to the forum and the thread is currently enormous! It looks like some swell keyboards are going to come out of it!

Edit: Additionally, is there a way to modify the Caps/Scroll Lock keys in these kits to allow the Leopold's backlighting to shine through?

7bit · 13 Jul 2012, 08:51

The only price which could decrease are the 'shipping costs'.

Just order and look throuigh the list. Maybe you will find more stuff worth buying!

JSchool · 13 Jul 2012, 10:00

Okay sent my address. So I just wait for the new invoice (made some changes) and then send the full thing to David or do I just send half or what?

What does RETRO/ALPHA/GREY look like anyway? Blue on light grey or blue on dark grey?

No, full.

All A-Z and 1-=, [];',./ keys are in lightblue on dark grey (like the modifiers) which looks super coll and you know you must have this, because it is the last chance ever in your life to get it!
