So the PVD brass weight is completely off the table for regulars? only available for the 'special' one that's going to be used for the vickrey auction?

unfortunately, yes.

For the purpose of exclusivity. That really sucks.

Logistically speaking, this is also one less nightmare for me. (I know I'm being selfish)
But the thought of making an error and send out wrong components (considering there are really a lot of customizations going on here), it would take even longer for an one man army to operate the logistic side of work.

I, however understand your point dearly. But sometimes we have to make some compromises and it's always difficult to please everyone on that note. We apologize here if it makes you feel bad about it.

the exclusivity is for the plate. not the weight, right?

Will you be releasing the weight STEP so we can have weights made on our own?

Correct, I will amend the thread now to clear the confusion.

After the fulfillment of the group buy, we could.

great! thanks for the clarification.
Will the aluminum plate have the same color as the case? I would love an e-white plate.

WOW I would give up the IRON165 for the SE of this.  I was already in for the PC version but the SE looks stunning in rose gold.  Superb work, this has to be one of the best keebs of the year.

[YellowHalo]

Oh no I was hoping for the group buy to not be this month. I am broke.

[senryo]

BOCC SE Vickrey Auction form is now live.

[Fluffyox]

If an SE auction winner doesn't pay the invoice, does the price drop to the third highest bid amount?

Correct!

[jiniya204]

Is the final version PCB green too?

PCB color is very important in PC version

[bvat]

Is the final version PCB green too?

They've been contemplating red color for PCB in a Discord channel

[senryo]

Right... but it would be nice to see how many bids and what they were. Transparency leads to trust.

We will public the relative information soon.
Please forgive the latency in this because GB starts shortly after the conclusion of auction, there are too many things have to be taken care of and we chose to prioritize the GB first.
Please accept our apology for this.

[orim23]

would have been nice to get a summary by email of that form after submitting.
but regardless, off to waiting for next year! :-)

[zantetsuken9000]

Woooooo first time in GB! Much excite!

[Kevadu]

So I guess the bluetooth version is dead?  Shame.

[Starius]

I've put in my order today!
One question though.... will there be a color customizing option for the aluminum plate?  Or is there just a default color for that?

[thornkin]

Are you going to create a GB thread?

Thanks for this GB. My first PC board. Which exactly Mitsubishi PC did you use though? Lupilon PC on Mitsubishi website has tons of options

Since we are not the one who is responsible for sourcing the PC material directly from Japan; we would have to ask the factory side; we will try to communicate to see if they are willing to disclose this kind of information. We apologize for any inconvenience that may have caused in advance if it turns out that they are not willing to share the relative information.

I have created it, it is awaiting moderator's approval.

[senryo]

Sorry for both of the users, I just scanned if I missed any comment. Apparently I did overlook, apology for the late response.

I've added it already, thank you for the kind suggestion.

So I guess the bluetooth version is dead?  Shame.

It is still in development, whether or not it will be publicly available, we will make an announcement regardless. Thank you for your support!

[menuhin]

This is the best ever layout I dream of which is kind of an alternative to the 75% layout:

- the bottom row with 5 standard 1.25u keys and a blocker for the arrow cluster
- the left hand function keys

I wish I have enough money for the group buy.

Good luck!

[hottrout]

PC or White?  What do ya'll think?

[SuddenlyDonkey]

E-Yellow top and black ano lower might look good

[YellowHalo]

No gb thread?

[Starius]

No gb thread?

They seem to be taking their time approving it. 

[lakeboredom]

Do anyone want different finish top/bottom case? We should get together and organize a swap so we can have the combination we want. Maybe the GB runner will swap the parts for us before shipping.

[Sorachi.Ace]

I like this idea. I want a cyan/white combo. I probably won't order unless I can set up a top/bottom swap with someone beforehand.

[SuddenlyDonkey]

Want to buy, but not quite keen on how the GB site and forms are organized.

[lush_bunny]

Order sent! Can't wait to solder some lubed linears (possibly healios or zilents or gat yellows) into this board.
When is the estimated ship date

I mean he asks you fill out a form after submitting your order. That doesn't seem like too big of a burden... the link is even conveniently on the page for the keyboard.

We are sorry for causing the troubles. But given that there are a decent amount of customizations, we want to make sure things are in good shape rather than the orders scrambled altogether and cause confusions from one order to another.

15/9 GMT+8 Updates
