Author Topic: Hieroglyphics (SF Group) Group Buy (SP PROTOTYPE DONE!) (Read 21805 times)

demik · « **on:** Mon, 14 May 2012, 12:56:05 »

Melissa just sent me this picture of the prototype, i say it looks pretty good.

colors will be similar to the qwerkeys keycap.

not from SP, but qwerkeys. this is similar to what it will look like, but doubleshot instead of engraved.

(btw, huge thanks to QWERkeys for the keycap. very awesome of you!)

Alright, just got the okay from Melissa about the image (well, little problem but I'm going to run a prototype before this goes into production).

It will be 1x1 Escape Row!

This is what we're getting! I still haven't decided on the final colors (leaning towards either black on white, or black on grey). Any suggestions welcomed.

Well, most of you guys are vets at group buys so I'll make a TL;DR version.

Okay I lied, send me a PM if you decide to cancel, or change your order.

50 keys $3.33 / each
75 keys $2.36 / each
100 keys $1.89 / each
150 keys $1.41 / each
250 keys $0.89 / each
500 keys $0.60 / each

$45 new legend fee has been baked into the prices. Shipping from SP to me will be added before invoices are sent out.

Shipping will be as follows:

Standard shipping: $4 to US/Canada, $7 international
Priority shipping: $7 to US, $13 Canada, $18 international (Needed for large orders, especially overseas)

NO GIFT PAYMENTS! SORRY! PAYPAL FLAGGED MY ACCOUNT DUE TO ACCEPTING TOO MANY GIFT PAYMENTS! Invoice will have paypal fees added to them because paypal is full of *******s

I will not be responsible for any lost packages, sorry. I will run a QC before I ship to ensure all keycaps are perfect. I will triple check quantities before I ship. If for whatever reason I get that wrong, I will ship out the rest on my dime since it was my fault. I won't nickle and dime you for my screw ups.

Okay, I think I've covered everything.

Oh yeah, if we don't get to at least 50, group buy will be canceled.

Black and white looks real nice. Hopefully we can get a decent quantity! Order placed for 5.

snoopy · « **Reply #4 on:** Mon, 14 May 2012, 14:43:05 »

when will the color be chosen?

I would order some black on grey or white on dark grey, but I don't like white keycaps. Mostly the white doesn't match anything :-)

that's what i was thinking of black on grey. looks good there

snoopy · « **Reply #7 on:** Mon, 14 May 2012, 14:53:20 »

Ordered two. Hope it will be the nice grey version :-)

demik · « **Reply #8 on:** Mon, 14 May 2012, 14:58:56 »

im leaning more towards black on grey.

but, prototype has been ordered to see how the legend will look. dont want sp to mess up like they did with the weezer keycap (especially since they could have done it right because the second weezer keycap looks extremely good)

sth · « **Reply #9 on:** Mon, 14 May 2012, 16:46:47 »

In for three, my vote is for black on grey as well.

reaper · « **Reply #10 on:** Mon, 14 May 2012, 22:38:55 »

In for two, black on grey, pickup in person, pay in cash! Either that or I'll buy you some boba milktea. lol =P

eyesmiles · « **Reply #11 on:** Mon, 14 May 2012, 22:42:14 »

sth · « **Reply #26 on:** Thu, 17 May 2012, 12:57:58 »

Any more posts by people that haven't bought a hiero key will automatically result in an order of 5 keys to that member.

PM'd to update my order. I can't afford to make up the rest but I wish I could...

I wish I could afford to bump my order by 10 but then what would I do with that many hieros? I don't want to resell... other people just need to order these now instead of waiting!

demik · « **Reply #32 on:** Thu, 17 May 2012, 15:34:02 »

I'll cover the rest. Group buy is staying. Ill leave it open for 2 weeks hoping it catches people's interest.
