[GB] Project Nebula ver. S [All delivered]
« on: Sat, 01 February 2020, 09:15:20 »
General information and price of the keyboard. Prices are excluding shipping and excluding PayPal fees:

TKL Keyboard USD 420 (DBS Bank TT Rate @1.3745 = SGD 577.30)
1. Case will be top mounted, 6063 aluminium - t5
2. Brass weight - Sandblasted
3. Typing angle at 7-8 degrees
4. Silver aluminium universal switch plate
5. QMK PCB - Mini B USB port
6. Keyboard box
7. Monotone colours - Aluminium anodizing (Lavender, Silver, Pink, Dark Purple, Black)

Weight of unbuild keyboard plus pcb = 2.3kg

Additional parts:
1. PCB USD 40 (DBS Bank TT Rate @1.3745 = SGD 55.00)
2. Brass switch plate - Sandblasted USD 35 (DBS Bank TT Rate @1.3745 = SGD 48.20)

Invoices will be billed in Singapore Dollars (SGD, based on bank rates as of 1 Feb 2020).
Do note that shipping to USA will be approximately USD 50, Canada around USD 75. Rest of Asia / World will be advised.
I will invoice the exact shipping cost when I am ready for shipment.

GB will start from 02 Feb 2020 to 28 Feb 2020 (or when 100 units are ordered). Limited to 100 orders based on FCFS.
Delivery - given the uncertainty to Wuhan virus epidemic that is circulating in China, I would set a buffer time of 5 months after the GB ended; extended if the situation remains dire.

Colour options:



Order form: https://forms.gle/A14VUCcRSc1sJARn8
Will post up the form link on 2nd Feb 2020, 11 PM, GMT +8 Singapore time.

Contact:
Feel free to contact me here or via discord at Okonomiyaki#2832

Current numbers: 61/100, got the minimum MOQ to kick off productions after day 1. Heartfelt thanks to all that supported. I am keeping the form opened until all 100 orders are reached.

Also, I know everything is fixed but I wish we got another color in place of lavender/purple as lavender/purple are mostly paired with the same keysets.

Should be USB mini port. Same layout as TaiChi and Kira80. I would assume they can fit.

Is this going to be shipped from Singapore?
Singapore Post has more or less the exact same shipping costs for every other country (checked for US, Canada, Europe). Just wanted to check so that I won't break my bank just because of high shipping costs to Europe.

Will be shipped from China, and no it will not be shipped via SingaporePost as they are unreliable for heavy articles. (probably shun feng express).
Do let me know which part of EU as not all countries are the same.

What’s the height of the front of the keyboard? Love the design but I’m hesitant on joining cause it looks tall.

The colour chip samples are just a set of default ones. Refer to the colour selection pictures for more accurate representation.

Amazing looking board! Really interested but I wanted to ask: When will invoices be out (assuming not immediately after MoQ is hit)? What's the grace period on invoice payments?

Reason I'm asking is because I'm hoping I'd have enough funds by then. Don't want to sign up and end up not paying, thus costing someone else their spot.

Thanks!

I hope it's alright if I quote your PM answer here, Mikiberry?

When I ran TaiChi it is around 88.17 Singapore Dollar (equals 64.60 United States Dollar).
Nebula is significantly heavier, I would assume to be 75ish USD.

Will send most of the invoices out by Friday, expected payment to be made before GB closes so I can firm down the numbers.

Do note this is just a close estimate and custom duties (20% VAT for EU) are still payable at your end.
Shipping costs shouldn't veer too far off from this.
