OK folks, we have officially crossed the 50 key line!

I am talking with qtan to finalize pricing with direct shipping to the buyer from him, That way there will only be one shipping charge.  So things will come faster and cost less!  As far as I understand so far there is no initial setup fee either.  So less money out of our pockets.

I'll leave the orders open for now.  I'll set the deadline at April 15, midnight.

The word from qtan is that shipping will be $4 world wide, direct to the buyer, including tracking.

If we get the order above 75, the price will drop to $4.50/key.

Cheap, direct shipping anywhere! Use the $10-15 I just saved you and buy more keys! :-)

That’s nice!! I guess SP won’t be seeing many single key Dye Sub orders from now on.

OP updated with current info.

It will be hard for SP to compete with imsto and qtan.  Dye sub pricing per key is similar, but SP charges $40 setup fees, and higher shipping.  Qtan will also handle shipping directly to the buyers, then you don't pay shipping twice.  Imsto had cheaper pricing per key, but the individual shipping that Qtan offers is a great service to us all. SP will have a hard time competing in dye sub novelty keys.

We will have to see how our Beeker key turns out.  The only question that hasn't been answered is the quality.  Melissa was willing to print our image on test keys to see if placement, size and colours were acceptable.  I'm not sure if we can do that with Qtan.  I'm resizing my vector for key size right now, so I'll see what he thinks.

I think we should just close this GB and get printing...the price drop at 75/100 isn't even that big.

The resized vector (key cap dimensions) has been sent to Qtan in the correct format.  So we are just waiting for a confirmation that the key looks good.

The image on the SP test key was not horizontally centred.  In person on a keyboard it is way off.  So I asked if a test is possible to ensure placement and size.
