demik, what do you think about getting a new mold made?

I think the SP font looks really good for this key, and has become iconic IMO.  Not sure if any of their others would look better.

We could always do a custom legend in any font we want of course.  I'd really like to do a Cherry font GH modifier key at some point, whether connected with the monthly GH key series or not.

About combining the postage with Hazeluff's group buy and your own, Hazeluff mentioned that he could probably fit about 40 keys nicely in the standard shipping envelope. What do you think about that demik since you're doing it (I think, but I'm not actually sure). I plan to order enough keys from both sets to fill up a standard padded envelope, but would hate for it just not to fit or something :P

EDIT: Just saw your reply in the other group buy. Let's assume hypothetically I'm still going with a padded envelope :P

with that many keys + overseas i STRONGLY urge priority box. the envelope are going to be fat, which are bigger chances of them getting damaged during sorting. but if that's what you want, that's fine. neither me nor hazel are responsible once stuff leaves our hands

New price tiers

750 pcs******** $0.45 / each
1000 pcs****** $0.41 / each


Luckily we hit that $.45 price, theoretically. I think I may have to increase my order by another 10 but I will wait until the end to make that final decision. 1000ct is entirely reachable if everyone increased by 3.

500 keys $0.51/ each <~~~ we are here
750 keys $0.45 / each
1000 keys $0.41 / each

Wait I'm confused. Did the whole price tier just changed a day or two ago? I think I remember it was $0.51 each at the 250 mark? And now it's $0.51 at 500?

Nope; it was because he hadn't updated that post yet. The price tier is currently correct and is actually cheaper in terms of price/ct  than the novelty buy was.

As ripster loves to point out, the kerning is inconsistent.  It says "GEEK HA CK" instead of "GEEK HACK".

edit: Damn it tsangan that's the second time today.

We can go with the same font as hashbaz says its quite iconic now

But hashbaz and I are going to make a GEEK HACK key in 1.25x modifier and 1x modifier happen later! Maybe with a Cherry style font!
