Hello!
I have prepared SEMO TKL from late August 2020 till now,

Some of you may be familiar with this keyboard,

No the USB is facing the wrong direction (Semo needs the port to be north facing). Hiney will be running a group buy for the H87c soon or you can get one off 1up keyboards here https://www.1upkeyboards.com/shop/controllers/hineybush-h87c-tkl-pcb/

Thanks for your interest. You can check compatible pcbs on the main thread. Be aware that the usb port(connector) shall be on the upper surface (north facing).

Is this manufactured in Korea?

Yes, this board is manufactured in Korea, including plate.

This board is expensive but the QC standards are rather lacking. If you told me that I would get $50 off but get this board with serious scratch or a lot of small imperfections, I would not buy it. $50 refund isn't going to cut it. If I invest in something that takes a lot of my money and I on top of that have to wait x months, I want A stock material guaranteed.
-
Man idk, 520 without PCB is a bit too much for me (+ 40- 60 dollars for shipping). I feel like if you're going to charge me that much I shouldn't have to go out of my way to find a PCB. Anyways, GLWGB.

One of the nicer looking TKL to come out recently. I think the side profile is really nice.
-
Got my Hineys all ready to go for this.
-
When this becomes the hottest keeb on the block, just remember you could've easily gotten this.
Designer is making close to 0 on this board, it just costs that much to make.
-
Is there any hot swap pcb that is compatible ?
-
Cool, in for one.

I read the QC statement, I'm not sure there's anything unusual there. I've bought boards from the lords of mechs that had issues and have been told they are acceptable or offered $50 refunds. THE ONLY time I was sent a new board was Norbauer, but he's got it locked down.
If you don't trust the GB runner to catch large scratches/dings in QC then there's many other parts to this GB that frankly you shouldn't trust him/her with either. I am usually fairly conservative in joining GBs from those I'm unfamiliar with but anymore I'm unfamiliar with 90% of GB runners. There's a bit of a shot in the dark here, it's not for everyone, don't break the bank joining if you can't expose yourself to some risk.

If you can't trust me, don't buy it.
It is your choice and I respect it.

Love that raw finish on the brass weight!!

If you're not in the Discord channel (maybe everyone is), which I myself am not usually but did for this one, there was some good stuff shared. I'm lazy so just brought over some examples of status.

I have a unit from the GB and this is a really good board with very nice typing feel. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a solid tkl.
