I think most people use google doc these days to add the numbers, though I've never done it myself so I'm not too sure either  >____>

However I am pretty interested in this set if it ever gets made  :D

Or even blue alert lol.

I'm in favor of long order periods, since more ppl join and higher MOQs are reached

I have never ran a group buy, but I am interested in running one to engage a bit more with the community and feed my addiction.
Not really sure on how the process begins, and I'd need a few weeks to get some type of application running to manage it all. And I am pretty busy so maybe longer!

(Probably would use Rails + Backbone.js and throw it up on one of my vps, and it would be capable of handling multiple group buys.)

TJ, PLEASE make it happen.  DSA is now the Golden Profile only worth getting.

If it's Red and White then that makes it extremely desirable beyond belief.  I will buy a minimum of 4 each if you're running this  8) .

As long as you include European sets there isn't much you can do wrong.
Decide what sets and colours you want
Ask sp for quotes
Start gb/orders
Do some changes depending on interest
Ask for new price quotes
Start invoicing

And most importantly, ask matt3o for help/info!

I'd be in for a full 104-key set, plus ISO.  I think DSA would also work perfectly on the little TG3...

I don't see any ISO Enter key listed on the DSA family. Would this be sourced from the SA family? Is there less interest in the SA profile than DSA?

Oh cool. Sorry, didn't see it listed on the PDF.

Most keycap set GBs have included blank key options (possibly not for modifiers)... I'm hoping others fall in love with the OP images as much as I have!

I need some DSA in my life, so I'm definitely in for a set. Hoping for the option of a blank white ISO set with deep dish F and J, and a 1.75x for Shift_R.

Following this thread!

Ah....

  • ISO Returns and left stem'ed caps are in DCS and I have no idea how they look together with DSA

Has anyone seen any complete boards fitted with the DCS ISO Return key and the DSA set?

I can set up my custom order form (used for DSA Retro) for this GB if it's PBT dye sub (with blank options) BUT I can't take care of shipping and payments.

Please note that PBT and ABS have different tooling (most notably I doubt there's any tooling for spacebars), so we would have to make a layout and ask SP what they can and can't do.

Also if it's dye sub'd I demand full ISO support.
