I got my keys today. Im working right now but I will post pics after work. You will not believe what the USPS did to this pkg... My keys are destroyed, I can tell this without even opening up the pkg because I see a tire print across it, as well as a half melted key peeking out of a rip in the mailer...

:(

Initial reports from my house suggest that my keys are there safe.  I am very sorry to hear about the condition of Zaerst's package.  I would definitely file a claim with USPS.

Surprisingly one key survived thankfully, the other key looks like someone drug it across cement...

How many did you order?  PM me your shipping information.

Also, which geekhack keys do you currently own? (color schemes)

I ordered two. Like I said, just one was ruined. The only other GH keys I have are the white on blue from last month.

Sure it works. The structure is intact. Im guessing what happened was that it fell off a transport cart thing and the idiots ran over it dragging it a bit. The other keycap you can see the imprint from the bottom. Goes to show you these caps are stronger than they look!

I like that the tire print is right over the "First Class" stamp...

I'd like to see pad printing survive that!

Got mine today.  My first ever geekhack keys.  I'll post pics tomorrow.  I stand corrected (where ever it was that I made the comment to Ripster) that SP keys are indeed thinner than filco keys.  The key top is much more textured than I anticipated, yet the sides are glossy smooth.  Cool keys.  Can't way for my round 3 sets to arrive!

It may have been seriously destroyed as I am guessing these were run over in the warehouse right after Imav dropped them off because just like Zaerst my enevelope had a tire mark on it but it missed the key
