BSP PBT keyset with dyesub printed 103 pcs keycaps Group buy

[imsto]

I will put the numbers of order on the first page. but now, it's far from 100
the same price when orders, when the GB stoped, will refund the extra to every paypal account.

[anoxy]

Do we have an ETA on when these orders would start shipping out? I'm on the fence with this set...it's a little expensive for what you get, but I can't find anywhere else to get a similar set.

This is on the high side of fair in my opinion.  An original BSP sublimated set would be similar in price.  The advantage imsto gives is the extra printing, if that's your thing.

By extra printing you mean the Cyrillic? I do think it looks pretty cool, though I'm not Russian, nor do I know any Russian lol

85 keyset of PBT Dyesub by BSP on Originative is 130$...how would it be similar in price with IMSTO one?

I'm sure there is a fair amount of markup in that price, but I could be wrong.

Ya...but then considering the shipping fees from BSP to IMSTO, also sideprint and two times dyesub involve with this keysets, I think the price is actually very reasonable.

85 Keyset vs 102 Keyset. The price is fair.

If anyone uses current bsp production set and compare it with imsto dye sub, they would say the difference is minimal.

It is not expensive if you ever considered the "risk" by buying from other you-know-who vendor.

[pmh1410]

I think the price is not expensive but our problem is the crocked of stem. If BSP can fixe it, a hundred order will be push to Imsto.

And right shift
And F/J
And spacebar

but BSP won't fix

[anoxy]

Wait, could you clarify what this issue is with the stem? I was about to pull the trigger on a pre-order.

[intelli78]

Some BSP keys have had slightly rotated stems in the past

I've seen you mention this several times in a few different threads. Where does one acquire an OG set?

Is this what I'm looking for?:

[anoxy]

edit: double post sorry

[Photekq]

Anoxy, those are doubleshots.

Original dyesubs are incredibly rare and hard to find. For an ANSI one you're looking at $200+ for good condition. For German layout you're looking at $100 for good condition.

[anoxy]

Ah, thanks for the info Photekq. That's a bummer. I've read many people around here say that PBT Doubleshots are better than PBT Dyesubs, or that they prefer them. Or are the ones I linked ABS?

They are original Cherry doubleshots made from ABS. Cherry never did PBT doubleshots. The only real PBT doubleshot sets you can get are by Vortex.

I suppose this question is for Imsto,

You are running a similar Group Buy like Signature Plastics, in which you shall take the money out of Paypal accounts after the 20th of May 2014 and not before that date?

Just want to know before committing myself to this purchase.

[SSIPAK]

$135 and no spacebar? it sure looks nice but not for that price haha

I usually take the money out of paypal after the dealine, maybe more later than the deadline, or maybe later than the deadline of next GB.
Bring money to my Chinese account is not free...

[phoenix1234]

Actually, if you compare the price, this GB from imsto is the cheapest among the BSP GB so far, IMO.
In this GB, imsto has 4 colours dyesub (Black Orange Green and Red) while in the recent GB from RedLine, it only has 1 black colour, same price and also no space bar.

Yeah, it really isn't that terrible a deal. I'd probably jump on it if it had a tsangan option.

[Photekq]

Yeah, it really isn't that terrible a deal. I'd probably jump on it if it had a tsangan option.

The set IS tsangan (1.5 mods). It doesn't have a moogle option.

[phoenix1234]

Yeah, it really isn't that terrible a deal. I'd probably jump on it if it had a tsangan option.

By default, this GB already offered the 1.5 modifiers + 1x winkey (blank) no space bar. We only need to buy the RGB 1.25 from him if we want to run with standard 1.25 keyboard like Filco MJ.

For the 7x space bar, I think we can always order directly from SP via their inventory here 2.5$ / space bar :
http://keycapsdirect.com/inventorypdfs/SpacebarInventory.pdf
Currently, SP has 158 white space bar (WFO)
http://keycapsdirect.com/abscolors.php


For the 6.25x space bar, the resent GMK GB from Ivan could have some left-over so I think we also have a chance to find.

Edit: Photekq is faster than me

Ah, so I see.  I suppose I should work on my reading comprehension.  Thanks!

Maybe I'm just a cheapskate, but I feel like it's pricey for a "groupbuy," but if this was ready to order I'd be more apt to consider it.

I mean, it's not like it's going to get any cheaper.  The Redline GB was the same price, and even the Originative price is pretty much the same.

[anoxy]

Yeah, I think what I'm trying to say is that I'm more apt to spend my money when I know I will get it soon. If I know I have to wait, I'm less likely to make the purchase.

Which is why i just ordered the classic beige and cyrillic sets from Originative

Classic beige? You mean the dye sub set? Nice purchase. I'm tempted to get that Cyrillic set. Need moneys!

[tribade]

Welp, I bit the bullet on this set.  I hope it's everything I'm hoping for, and that the missing spacebar doesn't end up being too much of an issue.  And also that I receive it before I get my Duck Viper.

[chaosstep]

Actually Simple,
If you feel it's expensive just don't buy, nobody push it and If you want and just buy.
As far as I know BSP only manufacture keycaps with silk screen printing(I'm not sure it's correct with English) now.

Ya, I am also told that BSP had stop doing dyesub now.  )
They will regret later when this is over  )

[lightsout714]

Stop doing dye sub after this buy? Or are these already produced?

This set is incomplete, as it comes with 102 keycaps, but which ones are missing? I'm confused @_@

Is it a complete set minus the two 1x windows keys? Does it come with an ABS space bar?

Incomplete because there's no space bar, no 1.25x mods for mass-produced keyboards, and no fulltouch caps lock. Imsto said he'd add a GMK space bar if the preorders reached a certain amount (200, iirc), but frankly that's not going to happen.

It depends on the context that you are talking about.  If you mean the Cherry classic keyboard family like ANSI G80-1000, G80-3000, this set is a nearly complete set except the space bar. According to the sample, it has stepped cap locks, side-printing for PrintScreen, Pause/Break ...  Plus the two winkey 1x in case you have a KMAC or custom keyboard that has 1x winkey supported.

These sets from imsto are close to the legendary PBT Olivertti set except :
+ the F5-F8 from imsto sets are beige (which is better IMO)
+ the colour legends from imsto are Desko and Russian language
if we are talking about the colour, legend and PBT material only.

Didn't IMSTO say the deadline was May 20? Or was that just for the $130 price? Looks like it's 150 now, but you can still order.

Yep, got the money and have just put through an Order.  Definitely want some BSP goodness, so Imsto let us know when this is going through  .

[kekkon]

I think this set is already in production, mean while, some winkeys sample

[rockhawksam]

I ordered a set from the website yesterday. Just to clarify, will my set be shipped along with all of the other sets in June or will I receive mine later because I did not pre-order?

[avtar]

When in June are sets expected to ship?

[CK Briefs]

So imsto, you mentioned a while back that you'd consider our input before deciding on how the 1x windows key would look

Do you have a final decision yet? Windows logo or blank?
