[GB] (CLOSED) TX1800 [Finished]

[quochung1989]

Maybe not because kin-n25 is having more project as TX87...

[Jokrik]

This is the prove that Kin does not take packaging lightly





Consider this as a buyer review, he does not disappoint at all!
It takes a while to deliver but boy it's worth it, don't worry this is not one of the TX1800, it's a TX3000 with some other stuff

but trust me, your waiting period will be paid well!

From the care Kin has taken with this GB I am not surprised it is so well packed. We are dealing with a a perfectionist here!

I was worried of yours for late delivery.

Not tx3000.
It is NCR housing + leeku3000 pcb + SUS plate.

My post was purely based as buyer review please read it
Im posting for those who are worried that their order has been on halt with few updates

What i'm saying is put a little more effort on the waiting because Kin will deliver and he will deliver it as best

[quochung1989]

I understood what you said. Don't worry 
I have little envy when you received leeku 3000 while we haven't paid rest of money.
I asked why you 're priority... I'm vey ashamed. Sorry 

[madhias]

My body and soul is ready now!

No worries for me, I waited for my keyboards from GON so I know what that entails.  For perfection the ONLY penalty is the waiting which is required especially when they finally arrive to your front door.

Kin25, just take your time because I know it shall be the absolute BEST 1800 keyboard that was ever made thus far  .

[kin25]

Yesterday I finished the test of students.
Thanks for waiting.

But.. I have a trouble to control quality.
Factory made scratches again.
He said to me that he can't fix any more.

So.. I give you some choices.
(1) good quality housing.$300
(2) some scratched housing. $225
(3) Refund.

You can change and save the money.
(of course I will reduce loss)

Please let me know... If you want to change..

[daviswalkers]

I recently switched to a red one, you said there was a limited amount of those, with that in mind a few questions:
1. Is there an option for red (good/okay quality?)
2. Will we know where the scratches are located prior to choice? Like if they're on the bottom side I wouldn't be upset but if they're on top it's not worth the savings to me.

Thanks!

I made 10 red housing again.
(good quality.. But I have to insert the helicoil in the hole)

Gray and silver...
The scraches are on the side.. 3~5 point.
The top looks good.

[daviswalkers]

Yeah sure I'll take a scratched red one then if ya don't mind, I've made a few purchases recently so any savings really help me out. Unless you're still having to pay the same for them off the manufacterer I don't want you to take a loss. If that is the case I'll go for a non-scratched red for 300.

Sorry that's a big confusing basically:
If you aren't taking a loss on the scratched I'll take a red scratched.
If you are taking a loss I'll stick to a non scratched red.

[Karura]

Hi Kin, glad to hear the updates.

Could you take a photo so we know what you mean by scratches?

I just reread your reply and I think I originally misunderstood you. You only have "good quality" red ones correct? Meaning if I got a red it's got no scratches and is 300 by default? If that's the case that's perfectly fine by me and I'll just leave things as they are!

Thanks!

[kin25]

Hi Kin, glad to hear the updates.

All are different.
Give me email.. And I will send the pictures.
You can choose one of them.

These are some pictures. Just see..

You never mentioned anything about the BLACK housings, are they perfect in quality and finish?

There are some perfect housings.
Don't worry about that.

[ninjadoc]

PM'ed about housing.

Thanks for letting us know  . 

Can't wait for these anymore, feel like a toddler seeing Santa for the first time  .

dang kin, it's always awesome to see someone being such a perfectionist and running a gb with integrity. I wasn't in this gb but if you ever run a 60% I'd have no hesitation to join. fantastic job man!

[madhias]

I'd like to have option 1, but depending on availability I'd also take option 2. I have ordered a silver case!

Next time I will make tx87..
I am testing the color of tx87.
Green and purple.. It is not easy..

I am sorry .. 60% will be made in Autumn.

GOOD, because I suspect these 1800s will be like Gold so I would love to be on another Group Buy involving YOU  .

Just as long as you are running it I am happy, because we need even more Aluminum in our lives.

[Paranoid]

You're doing a wonderful job kin! I really like how you're doing quality control on these things, a pro move.
What is the planning for shipping of assembled kits vs pcb+plate orders only?

Maybe PM Kin, if he gives someone a refund that will mean there is a spare order.

You lucky bastard  .

It's so beautiful no amount of cheap words can describe it's mesmerizing facade, when the eyes first catches a glimpse.  Completely entranced and beguiled with this 1800, it is the ONLY 1800 worth having  .

Oh I had already PM'd but I didn't see the thing about the refunds. Now I actually have a bit of hope

[SL89]

If i end up refunding, does that:

A) mean the whole deposit amount

B) open up a slot for someone who missed out?

I really don't want to, but I may have to

I think logically the order would just go to the first person in line, so b

[kin25]

If someone wants refunding...
I will refund the whole money of deposit.

Don't worry about that.
And.. I am so sorry that late and scratches.
It is all my fault.
And thanks a lot for waiting this GB.

[kin25]

I have many extra scratched housings.
So.. Just PM to me.
(Let me know color and plate)

You can change your order to RED housing.(Perfect or Scratched).
Red housings are not many.
