[IC] SA 8010 - Launching TOMORROW, March 5 - April 3, all prices added

[nathanrosspowell]

Interest registered. Love the teal color so much.

This is my favourite keyset!

Do you think you could add a second white 1.25u R3 space in the split spacebar kit? Also maybe a R4 delete key in specialties... although not a deal-breaker.

[asisleep]

Will you consider an EU-based vendor in these times?
I am very blind

Is it March yet?? This is going to be my endgame,* seriously.

Hi all,

Long time no update, but now we can get ready for the GB in about a month from now. I'm pleased to welcome Oblotzky Industries as the EU vendor!

In terms of kits, they're pretty much finalized. I've removed the 00 from the Numpad, as I think exceedingly few people use this key.

I'm also thinking of bring back the SA SAIL deskmat in a couple new colors, so if you hate that idea, holler!

Nice. I missed out on Sail but I always liked the deskmat so I'm glad to see it make a comeback.

Looks cool! Glwic and wish you all the best for this project!

GB dates have been set for March 1-31. See you in a week!

Hi all,

Unfortunately, I have some bad news...after discussions with the vendors, we've decided to drop the Modern [integrated numpad] kit due to a combination of low interest and high cost. My apologies to those who requested this kit--I personally thought it allowed for some pretty cool variations.

[paperassgasket]

The Modern numpad kit should have been the real numpad kit.
I was planning on picking up couple extras just to stick them on other SA sets. Sad.

What?! Modern Numpad kit is the only reason why I was also buying the other kits. Was planning on buying several to fit in with other SA sets. Now there’s no reason for me to join the GB. Huge disappointment.

Well, it would have been a $45-50 kit and we felt that was a bit too much for a kit whose interest level was on par with the ISO kit.

$45 is pretty yikes, yeah.

Hi all,

The GB will be delayed a few days to Friday, March 5 to allow the proxies more time to price the set. Unfortunately, there's been an increase in shipping costs from SP to a number of proxies that need to be adjusted for. I've taken down the US pricing for now as well, as it is also subject to change to be more in line with the other vendors so costs can be shared more equitably.

My sincerest apologies for the delay, as well as the change in pricing. Regardless of the increased shipping costs, it was my fault for posting prices before the other vendors had enough time to look over them.

Please stay tuned.

RIP, I would still have been in for it, but I understand that it might not have sold enough units.

Excited

After a bit of a delay, we are going live TOMORROW until April 3.

All pricing is below:

What is the specific color chart?

What is the specific color chart?

We never posted it because FRANCO and I were going back and forth regarding the blue, but it's going to be a custom Pantone plus 2 stock colors.

Can't wait to get this set in the future.
