Seriously, it makes me want to move back to my hometown so I can drive to Custer and start pestering them.

Bham? I'll drive up there and protest with a sign.

I would rather have them make more mistakes and fess up to them and fix them quickly as opposed to making few mistakes, but not handling them well.

wait, what?

I was really just agreeing with mkawa that SPs customer service is great.  If they make some mistakes and fix it right away its irritating, but not terrible.  If they were to make less mistakes but not fix them or have bad service, that would be infuriating.

Well, they should be doing both things right in the first place. Doing things right the first time and have good customer service. You can't just say, "hey they have good CS, so I don't mind them making so many mistakes!"

Do you already know what you'll do with the YY keys?
I hope that SP won't mess up with the Round4 stuff but as there is so many different stuff I'm almost certain something will be messed up, too...

If you don't return them to SP, I'd like some of them in addition to the YBP I ordered. :)

the big difference is that they're likely having to buffer their pricing with a margin to continue to make a profit on these mistakes.  if they made fewer mistakes, i'm willing to bet that they could afford to charge less (although we all know that wouldn't happen anyhow).

just saying.

This is how I picture things going over there at SP:

Why are they ueseless?

Maybe people who don't got your RGBY keys want them. I think they go well with white on black keys.

Just offer them for $1 per key, or so.

Ya whats up with their strange very low, very curved, very textured profile? I have a hard time investing in anything SP since the 'ESC guy w/ keyboard' I bought sits so low compared to my KBC caps. The curve and texture doesn't bother me so much but why so low? Are there some profile standards im missing out on? I know they have profiles listed on their website... kinda overwhelming for a noobie I guess. What profile are they using for their 'Row 1' aka... ROW 4? How do they compare to WASD's profile? sorry if this is a dumb question.

they're cherry profile key, there's nothing strange about it.  most of us actually prefer the lower profile over the taller Filco/Costar/OEM profile that most keys are coming in right now.

Did you get the yellow modifiers with white diamonds in YY also? If so I'd love to buy one.

Technically you should probably give them to the people who ordered them as free alternate color extras. But you could always make a buck I guess...

I thought the whole point of running this group buy on white diamonds was for the YBP replacement lol.

Guess some people missed out on Hashbaz's.

With the riddler mistake keys, SP charged to keep them, but would take them back for free.  I just inquired about what I should do with my busted Weezer keys...

Yeah that is puzzling.  Melissa never mentioned payment for the bungled ISO shifts from my RGBY buy.  I just kept em and gave them out with the fixed ones.

Just got a reply - no need to send them back.  I will likely throw in a few busted ones with the real ones then.

Hmm, I was expecting them to want them back, like the riddler keycaps. Will you send them out systematically? (like how hashbaz did his shifts) or randomly, etc?

I ask, 'cause I sort-of want one. They'd look good on a keychain keyswitch I want to make.

I doubt it, unless you want to pay for shipping twice?
