My WYSE keycaps look nothing like those colors. That WYSE pictured by 7Bit is much rarer version.

I have WYSE PCE 840358-01 and lettering is so dark blue its nearly black. And keys are dark grey (GTD) and almost tan not even close to GSX color above.

Its not fading either....

If those are the colors you're going with, I want my money back. This should have been decided BEFORE having people pay.....

Is it really that different? The model I have is the one pictured here http://www.ebay.com/itm/Wyse-PCE-Keyboard-Wyse-901865-Wyse-840358-01-Wyse-901866-Wyse-841038-Wyse-900233-/350556978002?pt=COMP_EN_Workstations&hash=item519ed2fb52

It looks damn close to the one you've got apart from the black strip up top instead of grey and my keys look like this:

Now take into account real world lighting differences and the fact that different cameras capture colors slightly different and different monitors display colors slightly different and I think there isn't much in it between my image and 7bits.

Also, in my room lighting the dark grey looks tan and the blue legends look almost black like you described. Shining a bright white LED over it, (or doing a proper white balance) gets it to look like my image above. My previous color estimates were from images posted by others and some fiddling in Photoshop. There was no guarantee that they would have matched. 7bits require no fiddling in photoshop and look pretty much as close as any of the other images.

You need a color sample ring to see if these colors mtch or not. If your key caps are yellowed, you need to compare them at the underside.

To match new keys with old yellowed ones, you should sunbath them until they match!

7Bit's seem to match almost perfectly. Shawn, I think yours would probably look the same under identical lighting and maybe with some retrobriting, but if you really want to cancel your order, shoot me a PM.

shawn o · « **Reply #365 on:** Wed, 18 April 2012, 21:52:39 »

No, not going to cancel!

Alright, I'm going to shake down the last couple members, since at this point they've gotta pay or we can't run addons. I'll let you guys know when I finally order.

I might take a set from a deadbeat, just to have On hand And I won't even whine about the tilde. ;-)

I don't think you should, because it is not grammatically pleasing.

Quarzac · « **Reply #370 on:** Tue, 24 April 2012, 15:39:11 »

I'd need someone to take on an extra addon kit or two to be able to drop the other orders successfully. Except if I drop all the base kits from those orders, we're below 75 (73). So if people want to take a couple extra so I can scrap those orders, PM me. I think I need 2 base kits and 1 addon kit. More wouldn't hurt though.

Quarzac · « **Reply #371 on:** Thu, 26 April 2012, 15:30:33 »

I need someone to pick up 1 base kit and one addon kit! If you're interested, PM me!

Quarzac · « **Reply #372 on:** Sat, 28 April 2012, 23:20:05 »

I will be placing the order on Monday! Orders and collections are now officially closed!

I just realized I had a nearly complete WYSE set. I didn't know the enter key, shift keys, and ctrl keys fit. This set looks amazing on this board...I can't wait till the Moogle kit comes in. Hurry up SP!

Yeah, I too am really only waiting on the bottom row of 1.25 modifiers and a spacebar. It's going to look so good!

Nice...did we end up going with the color choices 7bit picked out?

shawn o · « **Reply #381 on:** Thu, 03 May 2012, 13:25:07 »

The keycaps on WYSE 840358-1 are light beige. The legends look black, but are dark navy.Same for 840338-01.

On 840358-13, the keycaps are light grey. The legends look closer to blue, lighter than those on 840358-1.

Most of them are made in Taiwan, but some in China.

Do you've got pictures?

Are they NIB?

shawn o · « **Reply #383 on:** Thu, 03 May 2012, 15:16:31 »

I'm assuming the ones you have been posting pics of are a 840358-13?

Soulpyre · « **Reply #384 on:** Sun, 06 May 2012, 20:15:45 »

Is there anyone who doubled their order who is looking to sell off an extra base kit? Please send me a PM.

shawn o · « **Reply #386 on:** Sun, 06 May 2012, 21:14:05 »

What keyboard was 7Bit using for color matching? Hopefully it was the more common 840358-1. Everything else is nearly impossible to get.
