Actually what I really want is an R1 set, with the centered alpha keys and the standard modifiers. That's what ripster has on his camo.

You make a decision on Round 4 lightsout714? I've decided not to get a set from Round 4 but just some supplemental keys like WASD sets, Apple/Command keys, etc.

Yes sir I'm going RETRO/RGBY!!

Quote from: tsangan;521441

Yeah another custom, it's the same size as the Poker so the Poker aluminum shells will fit perfectly with it

OMG that is awesome. Even better then the Phantom imo. I assume ordering is long over.

Oh, well I stand corrected.

If we are stating the kits that we want then I want a full Dolch kit with compatibility for Leopold, complete with font, sizing, and color.

Umm, not exactly. Some guys ordered their switches w/ phantom. Most of the rest isn't really done yet. I don't think any plate or PCB has been finalized.

No sir I was not; I was forced to give up my participation in this buy as the owner and my participation in all buys for financial reasons related to the Paypal incident.

RColinTaylor I will PM you and see if we can do something about this as that really sucks for you to come away with nothing from the GB you started. F'ing paypal

I think I have already worked something out with Tsangan but I appreciate the offer. The group buy worked out in the end and I was lucky enough to walk away without a tarnished reputation, bad credit, or any gunshot wounds.

It ended like every other breakup: I lost money, dignity, and time but I managed to get sympathy from every customer service representative I talked to and most of them were women...

Wait a minute. Which 1-900 number do you usually call after break-ups?

demik · « **Reply #513 on:** Tue, 21 February 2012, 23:45:37 »

Is that what we call the women from 1-900 numbers now? Customer service reps?

I didn't say I ran out of money because of Paypal the organization; I have a thing for women named after money processing services.

is any extra available?

funkymeeba · « **Reply #517 on:** Wed, 22 February 2012, 19:52:59 »

Still no sign of mine despite USPS reporting it as delivered. Things are not looking good for me.

Anybody have any advice for me, or perhaps some extras (in particular the keyboard-in-ass) I might be able to grab if it's really lost?

Got mine yesterday. Thanks a lot for doing this tsangan! :dance:

Check nearby neighbors. I've had a few of my packages delivered to my next building neighbor so many times it isn't even funny. Damn USPS. ><

This was sent to my office (hadn't moved into my current residence when I entered the buy). There's only one other business with its mailbox with ours. I might run over and see if they've had any strange mail show up.

No I kept it a secret

Some opinions for the keys:

I can see the cut marks where the keys were separated from the mold a la model car kit pieces. Not noticeable at all when in the keyboard so not too worried about it. I have a Rosewill with stock keycaps and these ones are slightly shorter.

Overall they look great and I love them! Now my keyboard can simultaneously be mad and happy at me at the same time.

I did what I could; what I am happiest about is that everyone who wanted keys got theirs and for the same price as they were originally guaranteed. That, and nobody lost money.

I'm not sure if it's been mentioned and I'm not too enthused by the idea of having to flip through all the pages, but one thing that's slightly annoying is that they did the nuclear symbol upside down, which is odd because it was printed right side up in group buy 3.

hazeluff · « **Reply #542 on:** Sat, 25 February 2012, 09:46:46 »

I don't think it's worth bothering to be honest. Although it's slightly annoying, trying to fix it is even more of a hassle and will just make SP frustrated with us. I would however politely mention it to her in an email so she can understand why we get frustrated with them and maybe she'll feel guilty and be more vigilant in the future.
