Crap bag 2015!

SpAmRaY · « **Reply #2 on:** Fri, 06 February 2015, 13:44:24 »

I really, really don't need these but they are hard to resist. I've got boxes of caps from the last few times.

Gonna pass this year. Have the 1800 to buy.

Yay!! I missed out last year because I dawdled on my purchase too long. I now know not to dawdle. I will not miss this giant 30 lb. bag of random crap.

Dear SP:

I would buy a crap bag, if I could be guaranteed one of the less crappy crap bags. Otherwise, I shall abstain, as in all previous sales.

Sincerely,
JD

Pretty much. There will be a few good ones, but then 29.995 lbs of caps you don't want/need.

How much are they on average?

I feel like I would have more success lingering around the classifieds after people get their bags.

SpAmRaY · « **Reply #17 on:** Fri, 06 February 2015, 14:00:46 »

I just need to get motivated and get my old caps out and get them photographed, I'm sure someone would buy them.

If no one buys them I guess they'll just have to lower the price

Business!

BlueNalgene · « **Reply #22 on:** Fri, 06 February 2015, 15:03:09 »

Oh this is good. I have been needing some throw away caps to experiment on and use as bases for my custom stuff.

mr.squishy · « **Reply #23 on:** Fri, 06 February 2015, 15:31:43 »

So tempted to get this, but I hear only a few (if any) alps caps come with each board

I need alps caps!!! hahaha

This is a very singular case of a company recovering some of the costs of over production, excess inventory and scrap where the customers are willing to pay for them. Imagine a manufacturer in other industry that can sell their unwanted stock and make their customers happy in the process, this only happens in this alternative world of keyboard lovers.

Bakgrund · « **Reply #25 on:** Fri, 06 February 2015, 16:28:57 »

I'll make sure to pick up a bag, just started my collection so hopefully I'll get some not too ****ty keycaps that would be nice to start it off with.

uns211 · « **Reply #26 on:** Fri, 06 February 2015, 19:42:56 »

I want one because I missed it last year.

rowdy · « **Reply #27 on:** Fri, 06 February 2015, 21:37:39 »

I'm tempted, but will probably skip it this year.

Two years ago I got a couple of Hapsters and a few other interesting keycaps in the bag.

Last year it was just a bag of crap, nothing of particular note.

Plus the postage cost to Australia kinda doubles the price.

Halverson · « **Reply #28 on:** Fri, 06 February 2015, 21:38:19 »

I love these, but like rowdy said, the recent ones were much more "crap"

uns211 · « **Reply #29 on:** Sun, 08 February 2015, 14:11:44 »

Changed my mind, I'll pass on this.

SpAmRaY · « **Reply #30 on:** Sun, 08 February 2015, 19:37:48 »

I think they sent all the good overruns to 7bit.

Bromono · « **Reply #31 on:** Sun, 08 February 2015, 19:42:20 »

I just need a 1u 0 key for my numpd D:

Do you know if they start at 12est? Or what?

Excessive · « **Reply #33 on:** Mon, 09 February 2015, 09:22:00 »

Grab bags you ask? If it was me, I would might check the site around 12:00 PST....

ReeferMadness · « **Reply #34 on:** Mon, 09 February 2015, 13:54:10 »

it's up, but 12.50 to ship is no bueno, sorry but sitting this one out now.

MythicalWagyu · « **Reply #35 on:** Mon, 09 February 2015, 13:57:13 »

Yeah if last year's bag is any kind of indication of what they're selling this year, not really worth it for $50 after shipping...

Seriously. $35 for a bag of crap plus $12.30 shipping. Nope nope nope nope nope nope nope. Especially since I think that's more than last year's and last year's was total junk with almost nothing worthwhile.

SpAmRaY · « **Reply #37 on:** Mon, 09 February 2015, 13:59:24 »

Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is, last year the bags were $5 cheaper per bag and shipping was quite a bit less. Shipping on 2 bags last year is the same as it is quoting on one bag this time, that makes no sense at all considering they were shipped USPS flat rate medium boxes last year.

EDIT: Ok so I think last year they were 2.5LB bags this year they are 3Lb bags.

blackkat · « **Reply #38 on:** Mon, 09 February 2015, 14:04:05 »

Yeah, can we get some cheaper shipping options for your Canadian neighbours? Looking at $60 USD to the frosty white north here...

mecano · « **Reply #39 on:** Mon, 09 February 2015, 14:08:48 »

Priority? It's $33.05 to France at First-Class.

$25.05 for shipping and $35 for the bag itself that is.

Most people won't ship international using First Class. I won't. Things just get lost or damaged too often.

SpAmRaY · « **Reply #42 on:** Mon, 09 February 2015, 14:13:02 »

for one bag CONUS (IL), $35 + $14.60 shipping

00zeRO · « **Reply #43 on:** Mon, 09 February 2015, 14:21:51 »

Yeah, well, one bag CONUS to TN = $35 + $17.00!!!

zah · « **Reply #44 on:** Mon, 09 February 2015, 14:22:54 »

seems like far more gbs got ran on sp after pmk was launched so maybe they will have some Nice Garbage this time around

00zeRO · « **Reply #45 on:** Mon, 09 February 2015, 14:23:25 »

I think if they would make smaller grab bags, and made them cheaper, it would be better.

suicidal_orange · « **Reply #46 on:** Mon, 09 February 2015, 14:23:45 »

At $45 I'd be in, at $86 ($20 import tax) I'll have to pass
