I did white balance with my camera before taking photos so actually the colors should be correct. GMK Nines will be darker than this approximately by 10 to 20 percent. Also the shade will be different. All in all GMK Nines is going to be great so dont miss it ;)

KING Delivers again! Thank you t0m!

Yes, I believe they will look quite different, even though it may not seem that way. BTW, boneyard is beautiful! :)

Really sorry to hear that.

Working with kono has made me see that they really are a bunch of great guys. I am sure they would do their best to resolve any issues you might have with them if you reach out.

If you really would not want to order from Kono, you always have KBDfans to fall back to, their international shipping is smooth regardless of where in the world you are (and well priced). It might be a bit less convenient than a local proxy (which is why we have Kono), but it's better than missing out. Please consider talking to kono, or worst case use KBDfans. <3

I've noticed this set is missing a spacebar kit with alternate colored spacebars and it is such a bummer for me. Any chance you could make a deal with GMK to throw in 6.25u and 7u spacebar if the sales reaches 500 sets?

I mean, maybe, I do not know how lenient they are if numbers are big - but historically they seem to not be impossible to strike deals with if there's volume! I'd love to add the keys if we reach those numbers!

What else is coming out in April beside GMK Metro?
GMK Eclipse, maybe? Or MD Keycap Recap?

Is keycap recap confirmed for April? Where can I find out more about it?

MD Keycap Re-cap is confirmed to start at 6am PDT on Thursday, March 28.

Thanks for being so responsive, Emir. Really hope it happens but alternate colored spacebar or not, I am gonna hop on to this wagon

Just waiting for April 2nd.

Hi Everyone,

I have some bad, but also some good news.

Unfortunately a decision has been made to not offer a RAMA works cap for GMK Nines. I know how many of you were looking forward to it and really liked the design, I promise we all were and did.

However, I might have something different that's very interesting in the works to offer you! Please look forward to that instead! <3

T-minus 5 days...

Sad that the RAMA cap has been dropped. I really like the 'IX/IX' design.

And today I just realized why it is name 'Nines'

I was thinking of getting the spacebars from skiidata as others have mentioned before. I was also hoping to get the Serika spacebar kit from the latest MD recap, but I skipped it due to the high price markup (which was later resolved I heard). I came across this GB on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/mechmarket/comments/b6rnk4/gb_gmk_blank_keycaps_any_rowsize_in_standard_gmk/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app
The op has since opened a gb thread here on gh:
https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=100031.0

Seems like given the popularity of the color (N9) we should be able to hit MOQ easily. I’m even thinking of getting an extra spacebar in the accent color (U9), just because!

Edit: they even added the ISO enter for those interested.

Edmundoh · « **Reply #367 on:** Sat, 30 March 2019, 18:30:36 »

All the best running this set! I like the colours picked but I do hope one day this set can run again With U9 alphas, therefore, I hope this run is a big success

Thanks for the tip bro. I too was looking closely into that GB but not quite sure U9 spacebar would hit MOQ. Really hope it does

We are literally hours from going live with Nines now! Kind of nervous, I am competing with 2 absolutely outstanding sets in Wavez and Metropolis, who both are doing extremely well. I hope Nines offers something that they don't, in it's sleek and timeless style. We will see, my fingers are crossed!

I hope all 3 sets do well, I wish nothing but the best for Metro and Wavez!

Keep an eye out for the GB thread.

Not to mention Oblivion V2 ;-) But I love the simplicity and "cleanliness" of the set, I guess I will have to scrape together another 130 Euros :-)

Fast shipping is included in the price, so it is still 129 but due to how the vendor portal works it had to be included in the price.

In regards to the rama cap, yes it is unfortunate, please wait a little while and I will have something available for all of you that you'll like!

I have a hard time believing that any of these 3 vendors won't be able to accommodate your request and combine orders - but I think you pay for shipping when checking out - so it'd be paid twice and you'd be refunded. A bit inconvenient, so wait of you want - the set won't go anywhere for a while!

I can reveal that the new artisan will be done by the very talented salvun!

I approached him because he has a very fine eye for detail and is unique in his craftsmanship. Those who know his work will surely vouch for how good he is!

I'll try to get an estimate for the gb thread, but typically for stock colors it takes about 10-12 weeks from payment. I'll update after I get an estimate.

I just spoke with the team at MyKeyboard.eu and they’re adding DHL as a shipping partner, which will mean better and hopefully cheaper shipping in Europe. It’s supposed to go live tomorrow or the day after that, so consider waiting a few days.
