GMK DOLCH [COMPLETE]

[Halvar]

Is someone interested in only the light grey keys (basically the alphas) of a base set, e.g. to combine with a Cherry set or a different GMK set?

I already ordered a full set, but I'd like to buy a second BASE set if I find someone to share it with and split the costs. I'm only interested in the dark grey keys (modifiers etc.) for that set.

PM me.

[swill]

Yes, well basically I just made the colorscheme same as the original... there is nothing more to that decision. It's impossible to please every buyer... but I tried to come up with the best compromises I think in most cases on key selection. It's not going to change for this buy. I think changing things midway can create other problems and confusion which I don't want. Next time there is an IC is when you should bring up these topics.

No worries. . I was not expecting changes. The IC for this was a little strange as I thought it was only for the esc key. I think that's how it started and turned into this (im not complaining).

Basically, when the deadline comes around I will look to see how close options are to MOQ. At that time I may decide 1 time extension may help if it is very close to making the amount, or possibly just take advantage of the moq shortfall pledges if there is enough assistance from that.
As far as other forums go, I am unaware of any others where info about this buy may be posted that I didn't post myself either here, on DT or bit-tech. Please do feel free to help spread the word around to any others that may be interested. It is open to anyone all around the world.

Congrats to Ivan for becoming a moderator!!

I totally didn't see this!

Congratulations Ivan!

Talk about it coming from left field.  Didn't expect it but couldn't happen to a nicer person, so lay down the law in this place with extreme prejudice Ivan  .

[IvanIvanovich]

Thanks SpAmRaY, rowdy and Elrick.

Orders have slowed down quite a bit

Hopefully this GB will gain some momentum again when the deadline approaches.

I will definitely order a second set if it makes a difference!

I will also order one or two more.

I'll be submitting an order closer to deadline, I'm just in too deep right now with all the good deals that have been happening. ^{*HHKB totally worth it!}

Congratulations on Mod status Ivan!

[TheMoonUnderWater]

Forgive my ignorance but does the "ODD mod+nav" add on set include a space bar that will fit the choc mini? (the second version) I couldn't work out the lengths.

I will be purchasing a set later this month when I get the funds to do so. There are probably quite a few others holding out until the end so don't fret 

[yicaoyimu]

Regarding reaching the MOQ, has anyone posted info about this group buy on other sites?

enjoyclick is in, but not for the base set.

[IvanIvanovich]

No, GMK does not have mold for that size to offer. Only 6.25 and 7 size spacebar is available. Odd pack have what is technically blank shift keys that will work on some Japan layout keyboards and possibly some that have a split space like 5000.

Ivan can probably confirm but you probably aren't going to get an invoice until after the deadline date. In which case waiting to order doesn't seem necessary if you know you're going to get a set.

[IvanIvanovich]

Oh, yes that would be correct. No invoices will go out unless it's clear the buy has enough orders to go through so do not worry about payment at this time.

Sorry for OT talk, but I would also like to know...

[quochung1989]

This set seems not include shift 2x for MX11800 ?

[IvanIvanovich]

2 unit shift is in ODD pack.

[quochung1989]

2 unit shift is in ODD pack.

Oh ok. I 'm very happy beacause finally i can found double shot set for my mx11800. Thanks

[kekstee]

Just came all over my keyboard. Ordering replacements asap. I just have to decide which addon packs I should take.

Ah well. Thanks for clarifying.  Cheers

Everyone drools over Dolch. Everyone always wants and requests Dolch until it's offered. Let's step up to the plate guys and put our money down. I don't have an extra 13 grand laying around but that's about how far we are off at this point. I don't think Ivan has that much around either. Sherry might and 7 bit might be able to swing it so if we want this to go through step up guys. I bought my share and my wallet is still flinching about the possible invoice but I want this group buy to go to completion.

Preach it bro, I already have a set and I'm still getting a couple more alongside some nice spacebar and colour packs
We seem to be losing steam when it comes to GBs lately :/

[avtar]

Either a MOQ of 250 isn't feasible any more (which can't really be changed I guess) or people who are active on other sites could help by advocating for group buys there. I added another set to my order for whatever that's worth :/

[feizor]

I put down an order for a base set, still deciding whether I should get a color pack. They seem to be so popular. What is the attraction? I might only end up using the teal enter, which doesn't quite justify the $24.

Limited edition escape and enter, and just more options if you wanna deck out your keyboard. If you just want the teal enter, you might want to just contact someone about selling you theirs.

Also having a more complete set increases resale value [imo at least - there is no set standards for reselling afaik]

[Elrick]

It's now so close to MOQ and I can even taste the ABS out of Germany already  .

This will be a goer and no one will stand in our way.  This has to occur because this complete key-set has to happen above everything else in this world.

We have waited for the longest time and now where just on the cusp of something brilliant here because once these babies start dropping out of their molds back in their factory, you shall know what key-cap perfection truly is  .

Don't worry about not making MOQ...

Order will be placed in a couple hours.

Ivan, if possible, could we get an updated list? Thanks.

[minho]

Bit the bullet and placed an order. Only lovely plastics from GMK now. Thanks for running this Ivan!

[Oobly]

Out of all the GB's I've taken part in, this is the one I want to happen most. I can't think of any keyboard this set won't look good on. And the feels... oh yeah. When this and the custom plate for my Pure arrive... drool.

I'll be comparing these to the PBT black on black set at some point and then deciding which will stay on my Ducky TKL and which on my Pure. Hmm.... should I add another set to my order in case I want this on both AND a set to keep unused (for posterity or until I get another MX boad)? Perhaps that would be wise. At least I KNOW I'll be able to sell one of these sets if I don't need it in the future.

Exposure in other corners of the internet certainly helps generate interest and orders, however it can be double edge sword when it comes to people coughing up money once invoices go out. I definitely think the base and colour pack will hit MOQ however it is not looking to good for the odd pack at the moment. I am thinking of placing an odd pack order even though I don't need one, just to support those who do.

small group buy also running in Vietnam

[IvanIvanovich]

Almost there on BASE and COLOR!
I am kind of surprised there is so few ODD order still... I thought there were more 75% people than this. I am sad there isn't more F'n'A orders... too little love for the oldschool.

I think the price is the main issue.  I just can't afford to put this set on my 75%.  $110 is not cheap, but manageable.  $160 for a keyset for a 75% board is a little out of reach for me...

SWEET!! (Thank you Zeal?) I really hope the spacebars get there as well.

I wasn't sure about F'n'A's R5 keys -- is the only difference between that and the base set is the addition of the Code key? If so I think it would have seen more traction if the R5 keycaps were replaced with windowed Fn ones instead. Maybe that could be an option for when you possibly run a group buy for just the dark grey alphas

[IvanIvanovich]

F'n'A have different profile of course, but otherwise yes the CODE key and windowed blank F profile is the only legend difference.
Yes always a struggle with price. Only so much I can do to get it for 'cheap' when it made in Germany not China. Perhaps there is too few people that are willing to pay extra to have correct legend and correct row and size key for the less standard keyboard... or they simply have not looked here assuming that as usual their keyboard is not covered.

[Motan22]

Could you add an odd pack to my order please Ivan? I did save the URL somewhere but I am having trouble finding it.

Although I probably won't need any of the keys, hopefully we can encourage others to grab an odd pack for the benefit of those who need it.

[geniekid]

I ordered an ODD pack just for the R3 Control.  If this meets MOQ I'll likely be selling the rest of the pack at a discount for a 75% user.

[IvanIvanovich]

Thanks to those that order 'extra' items to help with MOQ. Also always to think, while you might not need some keys this moment, you never know when you might pick up some other keyboards. It might be really nice to have some keys for almost anything.

Could you add an "ODD" pack to my order as well?
The url doesn't seem to work for editing my order.
If that is difficult, could you send me a link i could use to edit my order?

 

[Lighthouse1]

Wanted a Dolch set forever. Ordered. Thanks!

[cooldiscretion]

Ivan, can you sign me up for a color pack? I seem to have lost the original URL.

Thanks

Seems fine on my end. I can see my latest order changes.

Please all if want to make changes just resubmit the form if your previous order link isn't working. Your old order will be replaced with your new order.

Ivan,

Please forgive my extreme ignorance here but whereabouts have you posted a link to the current orders that were placed?  I would like to check what I have ordered to see if I need to get any more GMK goodness before the deadline hits me.

Just don't want to miss out on anything here.  Thanks  .
