Colored Topre Caps (1u and Mods) ($1.40/cap)
« on: Mon, 08 August 2016, 05:40:08 »
Topre 1u and Modifier Crap Bag Sale
  • After filling all the initial orders for Topre Crap Bads, I was left with some alpha caps and a bunch of modifier caps. The initial lot includes 38 1u caps and 36 modifier caps.
    Generally, all the same details apply to this sale as they did to the initial group buy (https://www.reddit.com/r/mechmarket/comments/50bkq8/gb_topre_crap_bags_2_days_left_to_order_and/?st=itd2wtoj&sh=7280ba87). The main differences are pricing, type of caps included, there are a limited amount of caps, and the ordering process.
  • Pricing: $1.40/cap
  • Quantities: Order minimum is 6 caps. There is no limit to the amount you can order.
  • Bags will include a random assortment of 1u and modifier caps. Majority of caps are blank, but some are printed.
  • Orders are on a first come, first serve basis. To order, PM your PayPal, amount of caps wanted, and location. I will then send you an invoice that you have 24 hours to pay.
  • Shipping: $4 US, $8 Canada, $10 international. Extremely large Canadian and international orders may be subject to an additional shipping charge. Make sure your shipping address is correct on PayPal! Orders ship the same day as payment is received.


Let me know if you have any questions!

Dont suppose we can specify any preference, like pastel colors?

Unfortunately I am planning on making them completely random. I plan on doing a bunch of pastel colors though.

In for a few, why not :)

I have to admit, the concept of intentionally making crap bags when you could presumably take more specific orders seems kind of bonkers to me. Sounds like people (apparently including me) will buy anything.

If you want to make me a handful of pastel ones specifically, let me know ;)

I actually have been filling custom orders over on reddit for about 7 months. The only problem is custom orders are way more costly. Here is a reddit post with all the info:

PM me if you want to place a custom order.

I've been there with the multiple HHKBs. What are you thinking for your next order?

Crimson or a subtle blue would be chill, I'll hit you up as soon as I can source a blank white set. I can't keep looking at the blank black set I have now.

Do you want a full set? I have a bunch of blank mod sets in stock and a full set of printed caps in stock. I will give you return customer pricing. PM and we can talk details.

The remainder of the caps should be here this week. Goal is to have them all in the mail by Saturday.

Just wanted to say I ordered from crj3012 back when he started doing this on reddit and these are awesome quality. Highly recommend if you're looking for a consistent feel between your caps and are looking to spice your topre boards up with a little color for a reasonable price.  :thumb:

Is this sale still open?
If yes: Is it possible to get only modifiers in random colors?
Thx for the reply in advance!  :D

Unfortunately all caps have been sold and I have no plans to do a similar sale in the future.

I do plan on accepting custom orders again soon, so keep an eye out if that interests you.
