Same as 500 I believe. The next price break would be at 750, which would probably be around 41c each.

WRONG! Based on the way that price breaks work you can theoretically hit them before you achieve the official count. Having enough keys at the active price to equal the required keys at the next break means you have, in fact, achieved the necessary amount of keys for the next break because it becomes cheaper at that point to buy more keys.

Just busted out my Calcematater. If the current break is $.51 (Demik hasn't officially told us because he secretly wants to do less work) and the next break (at 750) is $.46 then the "Magic Number" as I call it is a 680.

I can't make you do anything with math and logic because its indisputable and unavoidably correct. Unless you listen to Demik who WANTS it to be a 500ct buy so he has less work. I say you buy more caps to spite him.

I was going purely by SP's pricing structures, as bad as they are. Oh and you did say the magic number was 680, so technically I'm still half right... answering his question, at 650, the price is still the same as at 500!

I agree, to an extent.  I feel like these should be limited runs since we're planning to do them so frequently.  Also counting and packaging this many keys across this many orders is totally insane.  It should feel like a flavor of the month kind of thing IMO.

well the way imav did it was a certain price + shipping

any extra keys were lets say 2.50 more per keycap

he didn't run it how most of these gb run where people hoard simply because it's cheap.

I like cheap but if there needs to be a limit next time then so be it. However, I would say top end it around 10 because I still like these for trading and putting on boards that I sell/gift.

also, how is shipping in Australia? 6 of you are from around there, would it be cheaper if somebody was a proxy and you guys shared shipping?

also, German GHers have been PMd.
