With SP's MOQ structure, I didn't want to exclude anyone  :)

GB is only a month away now!  :eek:

Update 6: Pricing and New Vendor

Wow! GB is now only 4 days away  :eek:


In some unexpected news, I'm happy to announce that MKUltra will be helping out 40's and Ergo users, which means we can raise the MOQ to the next highest tier and bring down prices some. They will be offering Alphas, 40s, and Ergo for sale (maybe some other child kits) alongside the other US vendor: Kono.





Here's the pricing for the US Vendors:





Other vendors to come soon. Cheers  :thumb:

Thanks sir! I'll need it since your set is running at the same time.

I think lead time is around one year right now, or about on par with GMK. I should know more specifics on that soon.

Nice, looks like I might switch from buying alphas + TKL mods to alphas + 40% mods! Now I just need to find a board to put these on...

What’s up with the font on the NorDe kit? The regular alphas has some beautiful typography and the NorDe kit looks like Times New Roman. Render error?

The font used - Open Gorton - doesn't have those characters available. The NorDe kit will use the standard font from Signature Plastics. Should be the same as what was used with SA Symbiosis.





Lastly, the GB thread was posted yesterday. It's just waiting approval from a mod now.

Ah, okay—that's better, but still unfortunate it doesn't match with the other alpha characters.

Good question. Honestly, I didn't think of that. Which would people prefer?

Asking a mod to close this post since the GB post is up: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=113006.0


As for the 2u convex spacebars in the Ergo kit, I need to ask SP if there's a substantial price difference. I'll report back soon.
