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

JSchool · 13 Jul 2012, 10:29

Okay will make a payment some time today after the poor bot catches up to my last minute order changes.

ROUND3/TKL/ORANGE is still valid I hope.

Yes.

Order as much as you can!

7bit · 13 Jul 2012, 12:00

For an address change, please send your new address to 7bit_R4 in the following form:

ADDRESS
Walter Cherry
Cherrystrasse
D-91275 Auerbach/OPf.

Thanks!

I've been trying to add
ROUND3/TKL/ORANGE
ROUND3/TKL

...to my order but the bot does seem to listen. It did listen to my SPH/TKL though which is strange. I kicked it several times too. Are these sold out? If so I can probably still edit my order to compensate.

zulios · 13 Jul 2012, 13:55

Code: Select all

ROUND3/TKL                  | 36|sold out    |$66
ROUND3/TKL/BLACK            |  4|2 left      |$66
ROUND3/TKL/ORANGE          |  4|sold out    |$69
ROUND3/ALPHA/ORANGE        | 13|in stock    |$39

Here is an excerpt from my latest invoice, hope it helps.

JSchool · 13 Jul 2012, 14:05

Ah okay. Well i think I can still rig the order right for what I want. If the bot will respond. :S

ProTatoes · 13 Jul 2012, 15:53

Alright, I'll mull over getting a full pack, I love the spherical theme. What about The Caps/Scroll lock lights? Is there any easy way to let the light through without making the keys look destroyed?

Edit: Also, does SPH/TKL come with arrow keys with actual arrows, or only the text arrow keys?

nntnam · 13 Jul 2012, 17:07

Have you got enough money to place the full order, 7bit?

No! Please send more orders and more money!!!

Just drill a hole into the key caps.

Edit: They come also with arrows.

I am going to be in a different part of the states in September; should I send that address to 7bit_R4? Or is the inventory that's in stock going to ship before August finishes?

Am I misinterpreting the list of items sent in my invoice - are they "in stock," in that a Deskthority user has them physically, or does it just mean there is room in the next printing of keys?

In stock means it is ordered and not purchased by anybody else.

Just change your address anytime you want.

BTW, they key caps are not printed (

), but double-shot (

).

Haha, didn't mean to cause offence! I'll keep the terminology straight.

ABS has a low melting point, so use the lowest possible drill speed. Best to drill undersize and finish the hole with a hand reamer. You can fill the hole with a drop of clear epoxy, very carefully.

Interesting, I'll read more about that!

I've read that some ABS keycaps allow light through, and are slightly permeable. Do the keycaps produced by Signature Plastics have this quality at all?

7bit · 14 Jul 2012, 09:25

The lighter colors let the light shine through, including the red keyboard runner.

JSchool · 15 Jul 2012, 06:28

If no order has been placed then how is anything out of stock?

I'm having to cobble together a Round 3 with grey keys because I removed it from my original order, then was gonna add another version of it but that was sold out. But then I couldn't add the old one back.

7bit · 15 Jul 2012, 09:44

Key caps are ordered, but PayPal money collecting takes a bit longer than I expected, becuase they go crazy when too much money rushes in at a time.

Want to help to make that quicker and collect money for us?

Edit2: is PHANTOMESC this one:

Is that one for 7bit layout?

ROUND3/PHANTOMESC...........|.14|in.stock....|$2
What does this one look like?

Edit: Also, someone needs to let go of their ROUND3/FUNCTION

ROUND3/PHANTOMESC is an Escape key with the Phantom logo on it.
ROUND3/PHANTOM is the phantom kit with special keys for Phantom with 7BIT layout.

damorgue · 15 Jul 2012, 12:18

And if one wants to add, say a kbdrunner and a phantomesc, is it complicated to pay the extra amount and will it delay things further because of more payments etc?

Acanthophis · 15 Jul 2012, 12:26

If you pay via PP, then yes. There will be more delay.
If not, order want you want

damorgue · 15 Jul 2012, 12:41

I paid via SEPA last time

Total nonsense!

The more you add, the quicker everything goes!!!

Also, large orders will be shipped before small ones!

Acanthophis · 15 Jul 2012, 13:17

Then yeah, go ahead and order everything left so 7bit can shut up already

damorgue · 15 Jul 2012, 13:38

How much does one have to order to order the most and be first? Just curious who bought the most, cause I am quite sure at least a couple of people bought container amounts.

rindorbrot · 15 Jul 2012, 14:26

7bit posted a list with all the order values on it a while ago.
But I'm not sure if it was here or on geekhack and I can't find it anymore.
The highest bill was 7bit's himself iirc, but there were a couple of people with scary high numbers

I was "only" at the top 30...

sidunare · 15 Jul 2012, 16:51

7bit: thank you for getting my order straightened out, sorry about before
