When he talks about what is missing and why I will make it the decision on whether or not to run a group buy for the rest (he may have plans or want to do it)

Smalls, you posted earlier that your folks had to talk about it. Did they reach a decision?

You talked about your parents not wanting you to do this possibly, and sherry ordered a large quantity of RGB kits already but with unknown to us issues concerning 1.75x shift, no yellow or orange, and pretty sure no iso keys either so we may still need a group buy for those parts, and potentially extra shifts if people think they may wear them out gaming.

I think smalls can do a buy for everything if he so chooses, personally I'd rather get everything from one place. This is assuming he can do it! Go smalls!

Well sherry kind of ordered a LOT of sets. I suspect SP messed something up on the 1.75 shift and yellow mods. I guess proceed as before, or wait for sherryton to chime in with his sale and information.

Meh, I sort of feel like that's KS' problem, and leave it at that. I say march on with this buy, and let KS utilize its sub-forum for publicizing its sets.

That's fine if you want to proceed with this.  I don't mind.  I can't stop you guys from doing it.

I would suggest marketing your stuff a little more. Even stuff that is coming up as long as it's something that is going to ship. Since the community can have some of this stuff produced on its own, the sooner we know that you are working on this and it's actually going to ship, like you've placed the order with SP, then we know to just have patience. Maybe I missed it but from what I saw you posted in this thread pretty late letting people know that you had this in production and were going to sell them on your store. I had placed a WTB in the classifieds for white on RGBY double shots. That would have been a perfect time for you to market directly to me via PM letting me know you had some in production with SP and could buy them from you in the near future. I think the WTB threads in the classifieds are what initiated this thread. I know I had suggested in someone else's WTB thread that someone should do exactly what you were trying to do, have them in stock on a regular basis.

I just went to your Subforum to see if you had posted any more information on the Korean Springs you said you were going to put up in your store after you didn't get the response you wanted from advertising them on a thread here. Unfortunately it looks like all the threads have been removed and I still don't see them on your store.

Don't take this as anything other than constructive feedback as that is what it is meant as.

To be honest, I don't mind at all.  I know people rather purchase from a group buy because it's cheaper.  I'm fine with everything.  I know people will still come to me for some RGB kits.

Let's make it an rgbyo set and maybe use slightly different shades of the colors? Include solo keys, 1.75 shift, and iso. How does all that sound?

Brilliant.

Have you had a quote for these yet?  Just wondering if there's an idea of cost.

I have bad news guys. I think my parents shot down my group buy aspirations. I'm sorry guys, but somebody else will have to run this.

EDIT: Parents are debating it.
Any word? Are they cool with you managing a large order consisting of thousands of dollars of other peoples money if this ends up being your first group buy? I'm curious how you are trying to sell this to them, and if you are trying to conceal any details like I probably would have from my parents when I was in high school. No way I would let my high school self run a group buy :p college, financial responsibility, and a real job works wonders for credibility and reliability.
