I just made my first GH purchase of a Nyan Cat Set + 2 Gasmask keycaps, just curious what your first purchase as a member of this community was.

My problem is not sure where it should be.. Thanks for the assistance though still got to learn about this forum.

Only thing weird about using GH is the little bit of risk when buying something from classifieds, reminds me of other forums doing your first risky transaction, if everything goes smoothly then I got nothing to worry about, and I may start becoming more and more obsessed, luckily I don't want a unicorn board, so if I get to much I'll probably start selling.

First Purchase/GB on GH were White MX Switch top covers.

But I believe I purchased an aluminum spacebar off feng on ebay first..

Yeah its still a risk every time you buy something. Never know what might happen with Paypal chargebacks or people disappearing. Luckily I've only had one bad buying experience out of many. I hope your experience will be the same

These two dyesubs from Ragnorock

I actually signed up to this website just to buy them, little did I know I was getting myself into @_@

My first purchase was a Tex Yoda. It was why I signed up, and I'm really glad I did.

I signed up to find a good with board with mx clears, I'm buying kepcaps for a board I don't even own yet, as I'm still waiting for that board, if WASD's code board doesn't sell out in like 5 minutes again it will probably be my first board, however looking for a board like the Quickfire TK or Lightsaver for my end board.

I bought Poker mods from Feng on 2012-12-24. That was my first GH purchase. 4-days later, I bought a Poker plate from BossBorot and the KBT Pure LE from tinlong.

My first geekhack purchase was an ibm model m from inlikeflynn, I have since sent it across the ocean to bunnylake.

I think it was some novelty keys? Could also have been smallfry set.

I can't remember...

Belfong · « **Reply #20 on:** Fri, 04 April 2014, 16:29:52 »

Easy for me.. Steel Brobot from Bro Caps. That was lucky as he just did a sudden sale out of nowhere and I was reading GH from Tapatalk while having breakfast one sunny morning.

A filco almost 2 years ago

epzy · « **Reply #23 on:** Fri, 04 April 2014, 17:17:27 »

A G80-1500, but I only harvested the doubleshots.

It was sort of from GH, because I got help from a proxy here on GH. But if eBay w/ proxy help from GH doesn't count, it was a white Topre GasMask I think.

IvanIvanovich · « **Reply #24 on:** Fri, 04 April 2014, 19:24:42 »

Mine was first Poker X groupbuy from iMav.

kenmai9 · « **Reply #25 on:** Fri, 04 April 2014, 19:25:50 »

my first purchase was a full set of pbt dyesubs black on white with cherry legends and rgb on white mods. got them from moose.

noisyturtle · « **Reply #26 on:** Fri, 04 April 2014, 20:01:21 »

Mint green skull/arrow/wasd set via dibs. The entire reason why I joined GH in the first place.

esoomenona · « **Reply #27 on:** Fri, 04 April 2014, 20:53:50 »

I consider my first real purchase on this site to be a Julysicle. I entered an auction for it shortly after joining (the julysicle was the reason I joined in the first place, and found that auction thread). I also ran into tjcaustin for the first time there. I might have bought something in the meantime between bidding and winning, but I don't recall, so I don't count it.

I ordered some custom dyesubs from IMSTO

HoffmanMyster · « **Reply #30 on:** Fri, 04 April 2014, 21:18:26 »

The first thing I paid for was an LZ-GH, but the first thing I paid for and received was a RA2.0 set to accompany said LZ-GH. I thought this would be my end-game purchase. I could not have been more wrong... $:-\$

My first purchase from the GH classy's was a Realforce 87u 45g from Don Akimbro himself. Who is probably the fastest shipper I've dealt with btw, haha.

esko997 · « **Reply #33 on:** Fri, 04 April 2014, 21:22:31 »

A HHKB Lite2 from hcry4. Was pretty cool, fast shipping and everything

. This is a great community here, I hope to buy/trade/sell more in the future.

Badwrench · « **Reply #34 on:** Fri, 04 April 2014, 21:42:55 »

I joined to purchase the Toxic set before I knew how long groupbuys take (that one in particular). First real purchase was the January GH set from techkeys, followed shortly by the Feb, and March packs.

IvanIvanovich · « **Reply #35 on:** Fri, 04 April 2014, 22:09:35 »

hahaha, joining for groupbuys is certainly a crazy thing, especially when you have no idea how they can end up going.

I didn't even know what a GB was, and technically orders were closed, but Quarzac let me join the original WYSE Moogle set GB.

And o-rings from WhiteFireDragon (leftovers from his GB).

My first purchase was the Tai Hao doubleshot groupbuy that elton ran.
I actually joined geekhack for that GB.

Not strictly on topic:
It was DSA Retro that made me want a mechanical keyboard in the first place.
I'd never heard of them before.
