is this still for the capslock? since this is a NON PROFIT group buy you can contact OTD and ask permission to use there stepped capslock.

no. a lot of this groupbuy is addons to the original groupbuy.
If the original groupbuy doesn't go through then what will we do with most of these keys?

Who is taking charge of the DSA groupbuy from Druger?
Can you have this person contact me please?

Sorry I fogot to mention something.
I got approval from otd.kr for the stepped capslock. Druger was having a special full touch caps tooled. That is what I heard was the hold up the last time there was a update.

And my addon groupbuy has both capslocks in it...

I don't think anyone is taking over.  It's still DrugER and supposedly Boost to take over distribution or something like that.  But Boost seems to not have been able to get in touch with DrugER.

Boost said he is doing us distribution. I am getting refund requests right and left. I do not know how much more of my own money I can dump in this to keep it alive without any news from druger or whoever else might be running the dsa dolch gb.

Might make sense to wait a bit, close this GB if there's no further word, and consider re-running it at a later date After the DSA Dolch has been distributed.  That way there's no ambiguity.

At that point, there will be DSA Retro, DSA Hyper Fuse, and potentially DSA Dolch, so still a bunch of sets to complement.

I would love to run rgby and cmyk without worrying about being tied down to someone else.
maybe I will put up a IC thread for a CMYK DSA kit soon.

Except that Daniel's a bit of an MIA right now, with the clear switch cover situation.  If you want to do your thing, I'd do a new interest check.  Maybe send a few mass PMs or e-mails to everyone who's ordered from this group buy with options.

I will reopen the discussion later in a IC thread so that we do not dirty this one up more then it already is. my concerns about dsa cmyk are more around the colorways that SP currently has not matching. I would rather not do it at all then to do it wrong.

Have just spotted this: http://keycapsdirect.com/marketplace.php
$18 for a 56 key base set, $19 for 33 key modifier set
$37 sounds like a half of $73.89 for tenkeyless base kit

Yeah, that's perfect if you're wanting blank PBT DSA sets in those colour offerings. I'm still all in for this Dolch colour scheme set with RGB modifiers!

The latest comment on the replica set GB states that it's in final production at SP. Fingers crossed!

I'm curious about this as well. If it's not happening any chance the original post could be updated to reflect that? If it still might happen would it be possible for me to still place an order for a 'Kit3 - Tenkeyless Base Kit'?

Sorry Orders are locked. I have been giving refunds and I am very upset about the team redline/druger lack of communication.  I have tried to read drugers post in google translate a few times and it sounds like it might actually be made. I am waiting to find out for sure. If I do not see results by mid February I will start mass refunds and cancel this. I have refunded quite a few people already via gift payment and I get charged fees so I want to be sure before I loose even more cash on this.

Domo, thanks a lot for the sacrifice you are doing.

Please, in a worst case scenario of massive refunds, do not hesitate to discount possible fees from the refund (at least in my case, I guess that many people will agree with this)

It is not fair you loosing money like this after all your efforts.

Hear hear. If this is refunded en masse (not asking for a refund just to avoid potential confusion, just if), please deduct the fees. It's not your fault the other GB is bouncing about like a ball and you shouldn't absorb the Paypal fees for a refund that isn't your fault.

From the REDLINE thread:

Update posted on his blog dated Feb 6th.  It reads --
Quote
he got the 'final' sample and gave his okay.  So it's finally in the production phase.  Lead time of 2~3 weeks.   He says there's a 'problem' with his US proxy and he'd have to receive the entire shipment directly from SP and do all the sorting there.

So hopefully the expansions are on the way too..

sorry I have not updated this. I am refunding everyone.

I already started the refunds and I have been very busy with work so I have not been able to contribute to GH lately and post a update. keep a eye on your PM inbox for a PM from me stating that your refund has been sent.

Thanks for the update Domo. Myself asked for a refund last week after finally giving up.

Several of us told you to not take any loss regarding the refunds, please, keep it in mind and do not put money from your own pocket! Not at least for my refund.

Thanks for all your time and efforts
