German:

Druck-Rollen-Pause

Einfg-Pos 1-Bild (up arrow)
Entf-Ende-Bild (dn arrow)

[tjcaustin]

I was a bit jelly at lysol for having purple arrow keys, but then I remembered that I don't have any TKL boards that I could even use them with lol

Didn't get a GH?

Though, there will soon be 60% with dedicated arrow keys, too.

LZ-GH? No, I'm putting me eggs into the phantom R2 and the GH60 since the cost is over time and not all up front (hard to spend $400 at once, rather spent $400 over a couple of months or a year)

All the 60% with arrow keys look like garbage to me except maybe the leopold board

[Sputnik]

order placed one of everything
GIVE US THE ARROWS P-L-E-A-S-E
 

[IvanIvanovich]

It is what it is for now. I told GMK we were all set and no more changes. They need to know exactly what is being made to give us a production slot. If we go changing things it could get delayed for much longer.
Lets not get into discussions about other things and try to keep things that are only relevant to this buy with the options listed. Nothing is getting changed.
If you want to discuss other options and ideas, go into the IC thread for full sets and we can talk about it there.

[baldgye]

would someone be able to mock up what the purple mods include, I'm just curious about which keys it would be as im not very familiar with all the variations

[IvanIvanovich]

Basically it covers modifiers for standard 87/88, 101/102, 104/105 like G80-1000/3000, Filco, Leopold, Ducky, etc., 101/102 and 104/105 G80-1800, Choc Mini, Poker, Pure, and so on. So essentially the majority of MX keyboards that follow ANSI, ISO and JIS except for the backspace.

Brilliant......Just put in an order for some of these.  Thank you for arranging a CMYK arrangement.

[TDub]

You are counting weird:

Control (6 keys; 2x each):  1.0, 1.25, 1.5  B profile
    Alt (3 keys; 2x each):  1.0, 1.25, 1.5  B profile
    Alt Gr (3 keys; 2x each):  1.0, 1.25, 1.5  B profile

With control, 2x each of 1.0, 1.25 and 1.5 is 6 keys total and with alt and alt gr its not?
Does this mean we get 3 alt keys and 3 alt gr keys? I can't imagine us getting 2x alt gr of each size ?

Either way, awesome colors, definitely in for a set or 2

[IvanIvanovich]

Bleh. Yes I need to fix that.

[kaiserreich]

Can we get the awesome guy who does rendering to render a these caps?

[boost]

In for a few sets

[metalliqaz]

Why is there a picture of arrows if they aren't included?

[guilleguillaume]

Because it's a sample to see the colour.

yeah, if this GB goes well we could add this

I think you are missing some keys from that modifier pack:
"Insert", "Delete", "Home", "End", "PgUp", PgDn", "PrtSc", "Scroll Lock", "Pause", and F5-F8.

I've never seen a modifier pack this simplified before, is it targeted at 60% boards or something that has never been done before to my knowledge?

to the next one

Interesting... ISO C enter is the standard ISO enter i take it? Never heard ISO C before.

Could you add some shipping prices? Is a european proxy planned? Sending everything to the US to send it back to Europe seems a waste.

Quoting myself

From what I've understood, yes, there is a European proxy planned. I don't know if anyone's volunteered yet though. I would be interested in volunteering myself actually, but I'm afraid I could only do it in the end of July. Also, we have extremely high shipping costs from Sweden (what about 9€ to add tracking to a simple letter?) so it probably wouldn't be a good idea at all.
Sending it Germany -> US -> Germany would be horrible. I mean, shipping costs and tax... :>

I'll probably place an order when I feel like sitting down and checking what I want/need! Should also link this thread to friends and Swedish forum people.

[IvanIvanovich]

Yes there is Alt and Alt Gr, so you still have pair of key in each size.
EU partner candidate I am currently talking with is based in Germany.

Everyone can spread the word to other forums we can use all the help of reaching the moqs.

oops, sorry if I went OT a bit, you know.....excitement.....
Anyway, how many orders placed? Is there a counter?

[IvanIvanovich]

When I looked at it last night there was about 50 order placed. It would be nice if I can figure out to make a graph from the orders showing only order quantity to MOQ.

[Sputnik]

good! 50 orders in a few hours is not so bad
hope that the DT european ISO guys (like me) will put in a lot of orders and we get the MOQ in a flash

[tsangan]

for a modifier pack that has literally every size but doesn't have 1x winkey?

any reasoning behind this?

[IvanIvanovich]

They don't have winkey or menu for 1x doubleshot, and adding pad printing was going to cost a lot more so we just went with blanks.

[tsangan]

perfect reasoning, kinda sucks but can't be helped

[Glissant]

Easiest way to update an order? Resubmit? Message you? Spam the thread?

[IvanIvanovich]

Just resubmit.

[calavera]

When's the deadline? Still undecided if I like those colors or not.

[IvanIvanovich]

Deadline for orders is still TBD.

[guilleguillaume]

I'm interested and going to purchase at least one of each set or more.

like most the keyboard pics on this site, learn to embrace it.
Still better than clack or brobot at a fraction of the price!

[nullstring]

Waiting to see shipping costs before ordering.

[IvanIvanovich]

We won't be charging excessive shipping, try to keep at actual cost as much as possible. I expect most typical order with up to 6 item should be under €5/$7. I will get all the exact details up later in the day.

[i488]

  cant believe purple get voted the most.
I love blue. ordered anway

[Acanthophis]

Simple bubblemailer from Germany to US is 3,45€.

[IvanIvanovich]

Order deadline is set to 30 March 2013.

[nullstring]

Is it correct that we don't have a sample for the ESC key colors?

[Jmneuv]

edit: see post below

[longweight]

I want a blank set of pink modifiers

[strafe]

Ordered some escape keys

[Jmneuv]

consolidated (thanks for the template strafe):

[IvanIvanovich]

We need to figure out something about the shipping situation. Having the order send from Germany will add 19% to the cost of the keycap because of vat fee. Is there another Europe country that have a good and cheap post but with none or at least less vat rate? Otherwise it might be better for you guys to have me ship everything from the US after all.

[fruktstund]

Hm, that's a good point. I haven't realised before that you don't pay the VAT when buying stuff from EU when you reside in the US. I don't know of any countries with lower VAT than 19%, but then I'm mostly familiar with central and west European countries' VAT. (I usually think 19% is low since the VAT is 25% here in Sweden, but that's another thing entirely :>)

I've mostly been worried about having to pay double VAT before, but I guess we'll at most only have to pay VAT and customs fees once, and that's probably only if the value written on the "customs declaration" slip is more than like $40. It does sound like it'd be cheaper to ship it back and forth then. Depends on USPS's shipping prices of course.

[IvanIvanovich]

Example, average order is 1 white purple $41 , 1 cmyk $33, 2 esc $8 = $90 * 19% vat 107 + $4.50 shipping total $111.50.
Average cost to ship that international with USPS is $10 via first class with no tracking so instead $90 + 10 = $100. Add tracking for international is another $12.
So as you say, if I fill the customs as gift, value $30 for example you would save a little money, or with tracking just a little more.

[guilleguillaume]

I don't think GMK will send the keys to USA as gift... so this may concur in a lot of fees when they reach America.
