Looks like it's 3 more sets then a decent price drop ;)

Three more of which set? How many 1-9 and 1-15s?

Hint: It's probably less than 3 sets, but i3oilermaker won't update it until the milestone is reached. The one who gets the 75s set gets a free awesomeface key, so make your orders.

Nice job guys!!  Prices updated in OP!

Also updated worst case scenario costs on sets.  Already better than originally projected worst cases.

Lost 2 sets...need two more to get back to 75.  I'm not going to update everything in OP yet because I'm confident we will make it back soon.

Good News! Back to 75 1-9s and now up to 60 1-15 sets.  Decent break for everone if we can get 15 more!

For future GBs, it might be fun to add an option to the order page that says something like, "If doubling my order would result in a price increase of less than ___ $, I am willing to buy twice as many sets."

Yeah, with all the fancy google forms that are happening in GBs these days, we should be able to track how okay people are with order doubling when they input their order. Maybe a radio button defaulted to "Yes, more keys are better."

If 15 1-15 orders double and a 9 1-9 orders double then prices will go:

$41.71 --> $31.97
$21.73 --> $17.81

Updated in 2nd post  - keep requests rolling if interested!

I think 100/75, between doubles and new orders, is an attainable goal

I'm cool with doubling iff it results in the ~$31 price or better for the big set.

on these sort of keys are they actually going to be able to-do those horizontal white area's right up against the top/bottom of the keycap surface itself?

My understanding is that it won't go all the way to the corner but very close.  If you look at the triforce key you can see they can get very close to the edge.

The side of the keys will be the ball color anyway so I'm not concerned if there is a small amount over / under the stripe.

thanks, makes sense. You are right that the sides of the triforce did get very close to the edge as well. I'll submit my order later tonight!

I'm good to double if need be. Also, if lots of people double, I will consider triple, depending on price.

'cause this is an awesome keyset.

Nope - Just wait for an invoice when the GB closes
