Wow that's expensive. I bet ch_123 will buy one. He's Irish so he has a pot of gold.

She reserved a larger time block for Round 3.
This is why this mini-batch will be delayed that much.

BTW: Why don't you ship the stuff along with Round 3? Would save a lot of costs.

They are virtually the same. Optical illusion.

Weird, I don't want to derail this thread, but if I put the Shamrock key in between 2 other FILCO keys it is noticeably smaller.

Hard to get a good picture with an iphone, but this does show the Shamrock key being smaller/shorter than 2 other FILCO keys when a flat level piece is placed on top of them

Not complaining, just interesting...

noodles256 · « **Reply #84 on:** Thu, 31 March 2011, 23:11:30 »

Most keycaps have a mark like that (some more obvious than others); it's from where the key was attached to the sprue after molding. It's usually not visible when the keycap is installed.
