Am I missing a certain thing in getting this approved?

No, it just takes a bit of time sometimes.

I'm in for sure.  I think SA Miami will great with my white Testarossa... or maybe even on my ALU84.

Are you using the same teal and pink colors used in the Miami Nights set that just started too?

Unfortunately no. Those molds are currently in production and available in the next 2 to 3 months. This is one of the last sets to feature the iconic SHIF T and BACK SPACE

Pity this doesn't look to be hitting MoQ. Big and fat SA profile definitely fits the loud and proud colourway of Miami better than any other profile. Are the remaining sets gonna be bought up for resale like kbdfans did with SA Ninja, or will it bellyflop? I'd truly hate to see the latter happen.

Me too, this is the one Maxkey set so far that really got me.
Hoping for some international buying miracle or something

Even with UK proxy, we didn't even hit 100 orders. So far I'm 0/2 on keyset GB's. Thanks to those of you who supported it, but maybe its better suited run by someone else more known.

Don't apologize. At least you tried. Here's to hoping 1983 works out!! ;)

Usually with this hobby I feel remorse about spending money, not saving it.
Maybe the timing was just off with so many other Miami-themes firing off left and right.
Love your stuff tho Dave, finally building my mechmini today when I get home!

Maybe the news about new molds affected the GB. I'm also waiting to see the new look.

Good news for those of you in the Maxkeys Miami SA Groupbuy.

Maxkeys has made a stock run of this keyset for their website despite the groupbuy failing here at Mechkeys.

What this means is that I have up to 100 sets available right now for purchase that are ready to ship out to Mechkeys and then to you.

How many of you are still interested?

If it's only straight from mkca then I'm afraid that dips my interest a fair bit. EU import is quite a big killer.

It's available on their taobao store for about $80CAD plus shipping if you're INTL :)

Got mine today. I have to say the packaging was 10/10 and by far better than any GMK trays or SA bags. Oh and the keycaps are beautiful.

Edit: sorry wrong thread
