Very interesting, but pretty pricey :(

I don't know whether an incomplete set is worth 150+ $ after shipping...

BSP doesn't have 1.25x molds, and can't make PBT spacebars :(

Interesting set. Are the extra words/side printing dye-sub on the DESKO layout as well?

Yeah I knew that, I meant if only we could have them from another OEM to complete the set as much as posible, i guess the problem is the textures are different but still better than GMK solution of Sherry I think

I doubt that BSP even has that mold.

BSP has a very limiting set of molds, but their sets are the only PBT sets I like. Really unfortunate, considering I don't own a board I can put BSP on. I wish that they would get some more molds.

Imsto is fronting the money to have BSP print these. It's like the CTRL[ALT] GBs.

I stand corrected. See below or in the OP.

I never got a bsp set. I'd like this but, I need a space bar.

Does this include a proper grey stepped and un-stepped caps lock?

I need more info. I'd be more likely to join if there was at least a way to get other mods and the spacebar in another GB.

It's possible to get some 7x space bar from gmk too If got enough orders
The 1x win will be printed or be blank, depends the ideas of you.
I think these keys will be the best quality that could be found from market, including the printing and the keys.

Doesn't that just have to do with the PBT warping though?  The longer keys such as right shift as noticeably warped too but it doesn't affect operation or feel at all.

Very awesome.. I'll have to learn a little bit more about the deadline first though, as the funds and living situation for me could be changing soon. And I'm immensely interested in  GMK spacebars too.

Awesome alternatives overall compared to the normal 6.25x sets offered by imsto, as well as sherry's offerings.

The only reason I haven't launched my Typewriter one yet is because I don't want to do it in the SP sub and I'm not sure how I should do it to get enough attention.

His PBT color and texture differ from BSP's.  Do these set definitely come with numpad caps?  What layout if so?  And are the keycaps shown representative of the exact legends IMSTO will dye sub or will the legends be ''similar'' but different?

Yeah, I realize the texture is different but it shouldn't be too bad if it's just for the 1.25x mods.

I consider any set that's not a fully functional set on most keyboards and that costs more than $100 to be pricey. 

I'm just looking at $130 + shipping for this set versus Ivan's $75 + shipping for his BSP set and thinking that the pricing is a bit high and am having a hard time justifying an additional $55 while not getting anything special added or any functionality added.  If it was $130 shipped or $90+ shipping, I'd probably go for it, but not $130+shipping in a GB.

It may also have something to do with the recent boom in the number of cheaper GBs. There's a current interest check on ~$20-$25 Dolch/Graphite/etc (OEM profile). Another is the popular Granite DSA set via SP -- reasonably priced and with plenty of options. There might be a few more GBs people have their money caught up in, so $135 before shipping may be too much to spend on a single keyset when you can get so much more with other GBs.

I would disagree on that since people know the quality difference between BSP and GMK and Tai Hao. Tai Hao is amazing for the money, but nowhere near as nice as BSP and GMK.

It may also have something to do with the recent boom in the number of cheaper GBs. There's a current interest check on ~$20-$25 Dolch/Graphite/etc (OEM profile). Another is the popular Granite DSA set via SP -- reasonably priced and with plenty of options. There might be a few more GBs people have their money caught up in, so $135 before shipping may be too much to spend on a single keyset when you can get so much more with other GBs.

I would disagree on that since people know the quality difference between BSP and GMK and Tai Hao. Tai Hao is amazing for the money, but nowhere near as nice as BSP and GMK.

Well, yes. What I said is speaking with quality aside. People don't seem to seem as interested in putting in $135+ in a single, high-quality keyset when inexpensive sets like previous imsto, ivan PBT GBs, and even GMK. These are all usually ~$100.

Why are so many people finding it pricey? Compare to sherryton bso 85 keys which costs 135usd…

I consider any set that's not a fully functional set on most keyboards and that costs more than $100 to be pricey. 

I'm just looking at $130 + shipping for this set versus Ivan's $75 + shipping for his BSP set and thinking that the pricing is a bit high and am having a hard time justifying an additional $55 while not getting anything special added or any functionality added.  If it was $130 shipped or $90+ shipping, I'd probably go for it, but not $130+shipping in a GB.

This.

Like I said, $135 is acceptable for a full set that supports both wk and wkl layout, BSP should know there lack of keys is a no-go for many people (like me). Look at Ivan GMK buy, dark grey has price like $130 for many layout support, even HHKB

I don't think BSP cares, to be honest. The sales they get from keyboard enthusiasts is only a tiny section of their total sales. They're not going to make new moulds just to suit what we want unless we pay for them.

They can't do spacebars, they can't do 1.25x mods, their right shift is goofed (among other problems), and I don't think any of those things are going to change.

The 1x win will be printed or be blank, depends the ideas of you.
I think these keys will be the best quality that could be found from market, including the printing and the keys.

The question is why don't you let BSP print them?? Then we would be sure that we get "cherry" caps :P

The regular dyesub set he's using there is an original set, not a BSP remake. So it has a spacebar, different legends on Prt sc/Pause, and it doesn't have a weird right shift.

The desko set he's using is original, so it's printed by BSP and not imsto. It also has those dyesub RGBs..

You're right. These are the best replicas yet. The legends are all perfect.

There are a few advantages to the originals though, methinks.

Also, since these are replica legends they are bound to be a tiny bit different from the original

Thanks.  If I can pick your brain for another minute,

- what keyboards did this set come on?
- is the original space bar PBT?
- what specifically do you mean by odd right shift?

Thanks for the info.

1. what keyboards did this set come on?
2. is the original space bar PBT?
3. what specifically do you mean by odd right shift?

Thanks for the info.

1. Russian set is a replica of the ESA-3000HASRO. There are other 'original Cherry dyesub' keyboards with cyrillic, such as the 3000SAV, with tiny differences in the legends too.
The Desko set is a replica of this (http://i1148.photobucket.com/albums/o580/eth0sz/DeskoKeyboard.jpg) keyboard's keyset. This keyboard has doubleshot/dyesub keycaps. The regular black on beige keycaps are Cherry doubleshots. The ones with subtext are BSP dyesubs, as are the RGBs.

2. The spacebar on all 'original Cherry dyesub' keyboards is PBT. The spacebar on the Desko keyboard is ABS, since is it not a Cherry dyesub keyboard.

3. Here (http://i.imgur.com/NupjPUY.png) is a picture of a mounted Cherry dyesub right shift. Note how it matches up perfectly with the right-edges of the enter key and the control key.
Here (http://i.imgur.com/J5lF5wP.png) is a picture of a BSP right shift. Note how it doesn't match up.. That's because it's shorter.

Side on of original vs BSP (BSP one looks like a banana) : http://i.imgur.com/QlVjiBn.png
Underside of original vs BSP (yes, it's even thinner too!) : http://i.imgur.com/RzzLf5R.png

The BSP right shift is just really weird in a number of ways. The rest of the BSP keys are fine though..

Also, worth noting that BSPs right shift has been like this for some time. The right shift on that Desko keyboard is just the same.

I don't suppose there's any chance of a 1.75u right shift? If so, I'd have no choice in the matter but to buy the desko set…

I doubt that BSP even has that mold.

BSP has a very limiting set of molds, but their sets are the only PBT sets I like. Really unfortunate, considering I don't own a board I can put BSP on. I wish that they would get some more molds.

I'm very curious the difference between GMK, SP, Plum, and BSP PBT plastics. I have 3 of those otw to test out. Any hints?

You linked to a reseller selling a BSP set for less than the GB price.  Not sure how that's supposed to convince people the pricing is good.  The pricing on this GB just seems really high given that Ivan has a quote of $75 + shipping for a complete BSP dyesub set.  It tells me this isn't a GB price, but a reduced vendor price with a good deal of a markup over BSP's price.

Yup, u got the point. Imsto is a vendor so if there's any profit behind it is reasonable thou. Even some of the other GB organizers also earn at least by increasing pirce a little to cover unexpected/possible fee/tax. As photoelectric mentioned, this set offer more keys and considering of more complicated dyesub for russian/desko as well as side fonts. This is really something convincing enough in my opinion.

Regarding spacebar, this gb will probably try to ask gmk if number of orders reach the moq. Else worse case just harvest 7x spacebar from old board, buy from those spacebars that ppl had from Ivan's gb or the worst case as Imsto mentioned, SP one.

Ctrl and Alt rows are A profile for this gb set, which I think Originative's one isnt?

How many sets have been ordered?

Also, a GMK spacebar would be great, but is there any realistic way to get a Moogle set made for these? BSP doesn't have the molds, GMK doesn't do PBT as far as I know, Imsto can't match the color, and I don't think SP has any Cherry molds either. If GMK does a doubleshot ABS moogle set, would we be able to match the color? Its hardly ideal, and I am loathe to spend even more money, but this would just be so much more compelling as a complete set.

Both with tracking service internationally?

The keycaps was produced by IMSTO, but not the keyboard and keycaps.  :)

here's the images that token on a keyboard. but should forget the green esc key.
(Attachment Link)
Oh all key is pbt dye-sub except green esc? And all is Cherry old keycaps or BSP keycaps? If that is BSP, BSP fixed arrow issue on Enter cap?

Hi Friend, I believe that:1. The set are all PBT caps; 2. The keycaps are ordered from BSP (Blank Set); and 3. All print is carried out by IMSTO himself thus for the font you can refer to the sample pics

Tony How be friends.  :-*

I think if that problem was already fixed or solved later, a lot of people especially Korean guys gonna join this GB more and more.
But I wonder whether BSP even notice that problem or not haha

Hey guys, I'm interested in buying a set but I don't have a decked out Korean custom. Does anyone know how I can find Cherry A-profile RGBY sets for Winkey layouts, that would match the quality of this set? (preferrably PBT). I believe most of the GBs here are ABS.

Yeah I'm guessing IMSTO misunderstood what we were referring to.  The $25 RGB set looks like IMSTO's PBT and is using 1.25x modifiers--not BSP.

Maybe the colour of the RGB is not what you expect. But I think if you really need 1.25 PBT modifiers, you should go for Imsto's PBT one.
[attachimg=1]
The roughness, thickness and the construction of Imsto PBT are the best Cherry Profile RGB PBT replica set for winkey, IMO. It is very close to Cherry PBT. So you can mix it with BSP PBT without any problem. Even better, it can be a potential replacement for BSP shift key if you are not satisfied with it.  ;D
[attachimg=2]
* The Imsto shift key is a bit higher because it has Costa clips mounted


Eventually, you can have a full PBT set for winkey keyboard.

that's right... I know the gb is realy hard to reach 300, not even 400. just like Ivan's black keys GB.

This is on the high side of fair in my opinion.  An original BSP sublimated set would be similar in price.  The advantage imsto gives is the extra printing, if that's your thing.

85 Keyset vs 102 Keyset. The price is fair.

If anyone uses current bsp production set and compare it with imsto dye sub, they would say the difference is minimal.

I've seen you mention this several times in a few different threads. Where does one acquire an OG set?

Is this what I'm looking for?:

Anoxy, those are doubleshots.

Original dyesubs are incredibly rare and hard to find. For an ANSI one you're looking at $200+ for good condition. For German layout you're looking at $100 for good condition.

Ah, thanks for the info Photekq. That's a bummer. I've read many people around here say that PBT Doubleshots are better than PBT Dyesubs, or that they prefer them. Or are the ones I linked ABS?

They are original Cherry doubleshots made from ABS. Cherry never did PBT doubleshots. The only real PBT doubleshot sets you can get are by Vortex.

I suppose this question is for Imsto,

You are running a similar Group Buy like Signature Plastics, in which you shall take the money out of Paypal accounts after the 20th of May 2014 and not before that date?

Just want to know before committing myself to this purchase.

I usually take the money out of paypal after the dealine, maybe more later than the deadline, or maybe later than the deadline of next GB.
Bring money to my Chinese account is not free...

Actually, if you compare the price, this GB from imsto is the cheapest among the BSP GB so far, IMO.
In this GB, imsto has 4 colours dyesub (Black Orange Green and Red) while in the recent GB from RedLine, it only has 1 black colour, same price and also no space bar.

Yeah, it really isn't that terrible a deal. I'd probably jump on it if it had a tsangan option.

By default, this GB already offered the 1.5 modifiers + 1x winkey (blank) no space bar. We only need to buy the RGB 1.25 from him if we want to run with standard 1.25 keyboard like Filco MJ.

For the 7x space bar, I think we can always order directly from SP via their inventory here 2.5$ / space bar :
http://keycapsdirect.com/inventorypdfs/SpacebarInventory.pdf
Currently, SP has 158 white space bar (WFO)
http://keycapsdirect.com/abscolors.php
[attachimg=1]

For the 6.25x space bar, the resent GMK GB from Ivan could have some left-over so I think we also have a chance to find.

Edit: Photekq is faster than me :(

Incomplete because there's no space bar, no 1.25x mods for mass-produced keyboards, and no fulltouch caps lock. Imsto said he'd add a GMK space bar if the preorders reached a certain amount (200, iirc), but frankly that's not going to happen.

It depends on the context that you are talking about.  If you mean the Cherry classic keyboard family like ANSI G80-1000, G80-3000, this set is a nearly complete set except the space bar. According to the sample, it has stepped cap locks, side-printing for PrintScreen, Pause/Break ...  Plus the two winkey 1x in case you have a KMAC or custom keyboard that has 1x winkey supported.

These sets from imsto are close to the legendary PBT Olivertti set except :
+ the F5-F8 from imsto sets are beige (which is better IMO)
+ the colour legends from imsto are Desko and Russian language
if we are talking about the colour, legend and PBT material only.

Thank you so much for this.

Let me say Imsto has done something terrific here because SP tried their hand at making PBT sets and it sucked major league but Imsto has done extremely well here.  No misshapen keys and the dye-sub is neat and clear.

Maybe Imsto should of done Matt3o's Granite Key-set because I can lay money down now, that it would be far superior in quality and appearance  :thumb: .

Those were only going to be included if we had at least 100 orders

The dye-sub that Imsto has completed is up there in quality, not bad at all even when you look at it up close.  He certainly came through here when it comes to delivering a superb standard of key-set.

Would you please elaborate more on this. Where did you get the information of one year delay? BTW, if there is any delay, it would be just unfortunate event. I don't think anybody will be called a liar or shill just because of this. Imsto is one of the most reliable suppliers on GH, Taobao, enjoyclick and other keyboard communities.

Its only been not quite 4.5 months.

So what would be the typical Imsto delivery time for this BSP key-set?  Just curious........

Sorry for sounding like a panicking, newbie b1tchhole with nothing better to do.  I know how hard it is to accomplish making dye-subs especially providing spacer bars that will match the colour of the key-sets already made.

Please ignore my usual rants and b1tching here, most do anyway  8) .

Good to hear from you good Sir  :thumb: .

Just glad that our BSP's weren't forgotten or lost in transit (if sent).  I walk past my naked GON every time I walk into the internet room, it's so depressing seeing such a great keyboard with out it's BSP key-caps  :'( .

At least now they're coming and will soon elevate the GON into stratospheric perfection.........

The three photos above do not appear to be an option available for purchase on either imsto.cn or aikb.taobao.com. I would very much like to purchase the same keyset displayed in those pictures (only changing the escape key to match the rest of the set) -- been looking for a set just like this for quite a while now and I want to make sure I'm not missing out. So please clarify for me, if this  is something I can buy from IMSTO, because if it is then I'll put in an immediate order.

Thanks

Wow this sets look nice, is the dyesublimation done by BSP too or just the caps are BSP? also love the x1 window key and the additional 4 keys above the numberpad F13-F16. What I would like to see for the future GB would be this if possible:

Include Red Esc key to the RGB and hopefully 2 yellow x1 window keys if possible also, it will be something new and I wouldn't mind having a proper PBT BSP set + RGBY + Red Esc to go with it.

Those, who are lusting this:

(http://www.imsto.cn/image/data/2014BSPb/9.JPG)

May consider ordering the whole G80-1800LPCRB-0 board for about the same price as this set.
The new board costs £75.56 and it is currently 2 - 4 Weeks out of stock, according to their site.
I have found it here:
http://www.keyboardspecialists.co.uk/2803-cherry-g80-1800-compact-keyboard
That is, of course, if the UK and Russian ISO layout with MX Blacks doesn't sound too scary.
They called it a "compact keyboard", but it looks pretty much full-sized to me.
I am not 100% certain, but believe Cherry is using PBT caps for these boards.

The keyboard on your link has a completely different keyset, so you should not provide misleading information. They article number 1800LPCRB indicated it is laser-etched. Winkey set on G80-1800 likely has thin PBT set. So the price 75 pound is not a cheap price actually. I think you are mentioning a very different set while imsto one is a thick PBT and dyesub  :D.

Didn't I wrote:
"That is, of course, if the UK and Russian ISO layout with MX Blacks doesn't sound too scary."?
So how my post could be "misleading"?
Didn't I also have provided a link to a keyboard I was talking about, so everyone who wanted could read its description there and decide for themselves whether, or not they might be interested in this keyboard, provided they require US/Russian layout?
Anyway...
Correct me if I am wrong, but while Latin fonts are double-shot, as far as I understand the Cyrillic fonts on the imsto BSP PBT keyset were printed? I hope imsto, as their vendor, could clarify this.
According to this:
http://deskthority.net/wiki/Cherry_G80-1800
"...Like other contemporary Cherry keyboards, current G80-1800s have Windows keys, a USB interface and only laser-etched keycaps in light grey PBT or black POM.
Current G80-1800s have Cherry MX Black switches."
Unlike you, Deskthority didn't specify whether keycaps were thin. They said they were PBT on grey boards and POM on black ones.
As far as I remember I also never have said the caps were "thick".
It looks to me, that you yourself are quite aggressive without a reason, are you?

Don't get me wrong. Believe me, I'm not that rude. Forgive me if you have that feeling  ;D.

What I mean is that you are comparing two different things and the keyboard on your link is expensive, IMO. I think the keycap set on the link you post usually worth about 10-15 USD, even if they are thick) the price 75 pound (115$) cannot justify the rest of the keyboard (Cherry MX Black)

You can check this thread, Deskthority confirmed they are thin PBT:

Accepted, it's OK.
All right than: to confirm your words, please KINDLY post a link to a site that IS actually selling a US/Russian Cherry MX set (even thin PBT caps will do) I am looking for? I'd appreciate if you'd be able to post such a link, even if such a set costs not the 10 or 15 USD, as you have said, but 2, or 4 times as much per such US/Russian (even thin), but PBT keyset?

You can try in the classified area.  I saw people sold that sets some times. They harvest the switches and sell the keycap sets. For instance, at least 50 keyboards in this thread were sold at 25$ and most of them are just for harvesting switches. The keycap sets are likely abandoned. I hope that you can find one easily. http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=57152.0

On the other hand, imsto is selling 2 rare replica sets. First, his Russian replica is similar to ESA-3000-HASRO which is an extinct animal now, the cost of ESA-3000-HASRO would be 200-400USD/set depending on the condition I think. Imsto also had a cheaper Russian Thick PBT dyesub set ($75) if you are looking for (http://deskthority.net/group-buys-f50/cherry-russian-dyesub-104-replica-keyset-t2718.html). Last but not least, his Desko replica perhaps is the unique.

As far as links you provided - none of them lead to actual sells.
Thus they all are, in fact, misleading.
By the way: imsto currently isn't selling the US/Russian keycaps sets, as far as I understand.
Even for $135/set.
So, it looks to me that the link I have posted is actually leading to the only REAL possibility (at least possibility I know of) to obtain an English/Russian Cherry MX keyboard with PBT caps in the online store.
And a whole new full mechanical Cherry MX keyboard, mind you, for a price that is lower than this currently unavailable keyset some people maybe lusting for.

Oh, now it comes to actual sales vs probable sales.  FYI, currently, imsto is the only vendor who actually has PBT + Dyesub +  Russian. He is maybe out of stock now but if you have a group buy with a certain number of keycap sets he can do it for you as he did so many times in the past for GeekHack community.

Take a look at imsto stock, it doesn't hurt if we assume he still has 174 blank sets and we may see many more BSP dyesub set incoming to the market, it could be R, G, B, it could be Irish, it could be anything, it could be even the Russian again if the demand meets the MOQ. He is an expert on dyesub so stay tuned, we may see many more  :p

**: I'm not speaking for imsto, what I predicted about the future sets are only based on my assumption.
***: Pictures belong to the GH members, I did not own these pictures.

Besides, I think I see your point. You still have hard feeling when I call you misleading. Take it easy, dude, didn't I say sorry?  You came to a vendor sub forum of imsto while he is selling his keycap sets and lead people to something else.
As you said
Those, who are lusting this:

(http://www.imsto.cn/image/data/2014BSPb/9.JPG)

May consider ordering the whole G80-1800LPCRB-0 board for about the same price as this set.
Your post will not be any problem if it is an answer for people are looking for a normal Cyrillic set but you point directly to the imsto set on imsto vendor forum and compare with it. I understand the word 'lusting' is something people really desire. So I can freely assume that people who are lusting for imsto set (BSP plastic, Thick PBT, dual tone dyesub, Russian) will totally understand the value of it and they really need it. However, the keyboard on your link has a completely different keyset. From my point of view, you encourage people are lusting the imsto set to buy something else with the same price but totally different, laser-etched, different R1, probably thinner and are not justified for the price of 125 USD. That does not count the fact that the given website from you is based in UK, they charged the shipping cost 65 USD, eventually the keyboard is about 188-190 USD (115.51GBP) shipped.

If you want to discuss more, we should PM instead because this a vendor sub-forum, it is not right if we discuss about something irrelevant to imsto sales.

Edit: correct some points.

Hi imsto, today my package was arrived safe and sound. Everything is perfect beyond my expectation. Absolutely, I did not regret joining this GB. It seems your dyesub on BSP plastic is smoother than on KBC plastic. That can explain the font is high contrast but very smooth. It's amazing! Thank you  :thumb:

Here are some comparisons between Imsto dyesub on BSP PBT plastic and other PBT dyesub sets.
(http://i.imgur.com/3mr25SI.jpg)

The right shift key after Imsto dyesub is very flat.
(http://i.imgur.com/hvLvseU.jpg)

The dyesub quality is high with a nice balance between sharpness and the contrast. They are just right to my eyes.

GH keys on slightly different angle

I hope that we will see more high quality BSP PBT dyesub sets like these from imsto.

Thanks for the comparisons, phoenix! It appears that BSP dyesub bleeds a bit more? (and in a slightly fatter font?)

Really really wish I joined this GB :'( Hopefully there will be extras in his shop!

Yes, I can confirm BSP dyesub bleeds a bit more and in a slightly fatter font (based on the BSP sets that I have).
The imsto dyesub on BSP plastic is better. Likely it has no shading and bleeding (or unnoticeable)  :thumb:

It looks like Imsto is the KING of Dye-sub around here  ;D .  He certainly has reached perfection in arranging the typeface and applying it successfully to BSP's key-set.

The right shift and the spacebar are not from the set.  I had them already, and the set doesn't come with anything that fit.  I'm going to use these on my Duck Viper when it's ready.

They are from a set of, I think, vintage cherry double-shots that came with the board when I bought it from Tsangan.

Thanks! I was really lucky in that I was able to pick one up relatively soon in the classifieds after the group buy ended. I don't see too many being sold these days.

If not, hopefully there will be extras put up on IMSTOs website, but when he messaged me he didn't seem particularly sure their were extras.

Keycaps were just sent for dyesubbing on Feb 2. Tony said hopefully done around lunar new year and start shipping in March.

He also mentioned there's no crooked stems (hoping he means BSP fixed their r_shift / F-row), pics coming later.
