[GB:Production] Orange Half-life Lambda key from QWERKeys

[danielucf]

I think I ordered 4, can you check or put up a list of all orders


My user name is the same as it was on GH

List posted, don't see you in there *shrug*

[The_Beast]

Whateves, I reordered

[Drake_Megrim]

This is probably a silly question but will it fit MX Reds?

[sth]

Yes and yes

[danielucf]

Bumping this because we are 12 keys from the next price tier and we still need someone to handle the Europe end of this group buy.
At a quick glance these are all the countries people have ordered from besides the US:
Australia
France
Germany
UK
Sweden
Denmark
Canada
Ireland
Norway
Slovakia
Italy
Spain
Singapore
Portugal
Some of these have several orders to the same country, do any of these look like potential problems, or countries I should ship to from the US instead of Europe?

[apocalypso]

Put an order in for another 4, so that should help a little.

[longweight]

I will up mine from 3 to 10

[SmallNip]

In for 3!

[wilsongunawan]

in for 5!

[danielucf]

Broke 200 caps, now at the cheapest price tier. Just need someone to handle the Europe end of this group buy otherwise it is all parcel post shipping for those outside the US.

[maxmalkav]

What would the exact mission of that person be? Receive the bulk of European keycaps and send them individually to their proprietaries? How does he/she receive the shipping costs?

[Djuzuh]

I can do it, but am from france.

Somebody from the UK is probably a better fit.

[hoggy]

If you can't find someone else, I'll do it...

[maxmalkav]

Just asking because I won't be back home until September, and maybe Spain is not the best place to accomplish such a task, appart from that, I don't mind to help

As stated above, UK seems the best choice for the EU shipment.

[hoggy]

I'm happy enough to do it.

I would suggest that I split out all of the UK keys and send them individually, but send out the European caps in batches, (probably by country) as it will heaps cheaper that way.

Gives me an excuse to make another order with sleabo.

I'm sure there's plenty of people on DT to vouch for me if that's a problem.

It's not necessarely cheaper if we split up by country.

[danielucf]

Sleabo said he would send one shipment to me in the US, and another to someone else potentially in the UK. I think the problem is do we additionally split who receives the payments too? Who ever ships in UK or Europe will of course send them what they need for shipping if they are not the one collecting all the payments.

[Djuzuh]

Nah, don't split up payment. It gets too messy.

One person who collects. This person gives the other sender the money needed for sending the caps.

My opinion.

[danielucf]

That is also what I was thinking

[maxmalkav]

Splitting by country would be cheaper only if we have a considerable amount of participants in each one of them. I think this is not the case, so I agree about it'd get too messy and does not provide any economic advantage.

[hoggy]

Agreed. I didn't look too closely at the list as I was using my phone at the time.

Does this work out better -
Send out all UK and Ireland caps to their owners directly.
Group Spain & Portugal together
Group Germany, France, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Slovakia, Italy together - probably to Germany?

Alternative
Send out all UK and Ireland caps to their owners directly.
Send remaining caps to a hub in mainland Europe - probably to Germany?


If it splits down neatly, it might be cheaper to ask Sleabo to ship in a few batches and skip the step of forwarding the European caps to me.

Of course, this boils down to agreeing the 'hubs'.

As a Canadian buyer I'd say it's probably best to ship from USA than from Europe to Canada

[SocksWthSandals]

Im in first group buy

[maxmalkav]

Perchance!

[Zekeasakura]

I'm of the opinion that there should only be 2 or 3 hubs - America and Europe (UK?). I don't think the prices of shipping in Europe vary that much to justify more hubs, it would only take more time and maybe even create some problems.

[longweight]

Sorry guys, I'm broke so I have to cancel my order for ten

[danielucf]

I don't see the name longweight in the order list so maybe you didn't fill out the form. In any case I don't have an order for you at present.

Everyone should make sure their name is in the list, and if they are curious how many they ordered send me a PM and I will give you an update.

I'm also going to email Sleabo to find out about shipping costs directly from QWERKeys to those in the UK and potentially other countries.

[ACallander]

Are you still accepting purchases?

[danielucf]

Are you still accepting purchases?

Yes until July 27th

[dko2o]

off topic question, but can we order other keycap from qwer keys through this gb? I really want a reddit alien..
