[SHIPPED] Tai Hao 110 Coloured DS Set GB

[actionbastard]

Awesome! In for 3.


Edit : Can you change my order to 1 Black, 1 Blue, 1 Red?

Thanks.

[tgujay]

Did the counter for Red stop at 500 or do we really have exactly 500?

Ok

[hoasican2004]

[rowdy]

Yellow and green are still thusly.

Blue is second with 449 - nearly at MOQ.

Yellow is really the only one I care about too.

Good man - we need a few more like you

[elton5354]

I might as well open up a GB for SP space bars if there are enough interests.

What is the expected price for these space bars?  Most of those in this GB will probably need to add that to the expected cost for the number of sets they have ordered of Tai Hao sets.

Also is there any decision on whether to add the $1 for the extra caps to this set?

[elton5354]

Yeah, I think I will add the extra $1 since there have been orders regardless of it.  Unless they skipped that part and didn't read it.. I haven't had any messages regarding that as well..except a couple when I first mentioned it..

So I have to confirm with the colour guys..

Red - RBV
Green - VV
Yellow - YCF
Blue - BFK

Let me know.

[jabar]

A slightly different spacebar color will be much more off-putting than a normal white or black spacebar from SP.

I'll probably end up dropping a set if that dollar gets added.

That's unfortunate. Probably will be more drops if I had to guess..

If you still have the SP colour thingies, is it possible for you to put one or two of the sample Tai Hao key caps onto each respective SP colour thingies and take a photo, so we can see exactly how close the matches are?

Yeah for sure.  I'll do it tomorrow when there is sunlight.

[nubbinator]

That's unfortunate. Probably will be more drops if I had to guess..

Most likely.  If the addition was for something to help out a majority of people out there, like a more common space bar size, I'm sure people wouldn't object, but that set really is helping a minority of people.  Depending on how many sets people are ordering, that dollar could add up to half a set or a full set.  It also adds to the shipping weight which will drive up prices more than $1 since that's being distributed between the orders.

[rowdy]

Most people are probable ordering a maximum of 10 sets (e.g. 2 of each colour).

At an extra dollar per set that would take the total from $80 to $90 - which is still unbeatable value for 10 complete keycap sets (minus space bars).  If you add, say, another dollar for space bars, that would be a round $10 per set - still a considerable bargain.

[Techno Trousers]

Most people are probable ordering a maximum of 10 sets (e.g. 2 of each colour).

Funny you should say that--I guess I just ordered the max,  then. 2 of each should keep me customizing Cherry MX boards for the foreseeable future!

[rowdy]

It's not necessarily the max, just a general feeling from lurking around this thread for a while.

Nothing to stop you from ordering another couple of sets of yellow, if you want

[hoasican2004]

why do you not produce   6.25x spacebar ?

[LechnerDE]

I might as well open up a GB for SP space bars if there are enough interests.

I'd buy one for each of my 7 sets.

As mentioned in the thread the colors probably won't match 100%.

I think a pure white spacebar that closely matches the white legends would look best. Is it set in stone that you will use SP spacebars? I mean the profile won't match and it might look weird. I know you mentioned before that WASD won't offer discounts, but I think their white spacebar would look good with all the sets and will have the same profile.

Yeah I can't really understand getting a "close" match with colour and no match at all with profile... I'd also prefer a couple of black WASD spacebars, because the profile at least will be correct and the black will be very close if not perfect.

Furthermore, I can't imagine a whole lot of folks decking out an entire keyboard with just one colour caps... I would've thought they'd be used for modifiers / numbers / arrows / only alpha / everything but alpha / etc, so in most cases it would be possible to get away with a black or white spacebar. But maybe that's just me...

I suspect a lot of people are planning to mix and match the Tai Hao sets.  I know I am!  Blue and yellow would go well together.  And yellow and green.  Red and yellow for a Macdonalds look?  Blue and green for that special Christmas theme?

In those situations if the space bar was about the same colour, it would look fine.

The WASD colours are also very pale compared to those in the Tai Hao pictures.

Even a slightly different colour space bar stands out, as does one of a different profile.

I guess it is up to people to decide whether they prefer about the same colour but a different profile, or a noticably different colour but about the same profile.

True, hadn't thought of that.  Obviously there's not going to be a GB for WASD spacebars but that's what I'll be doing lol.

And btw Elton, I'm happy to pay the extra $1 per set, it's going to push the order over $100 I think but still... bargain! And you never know when a few blank keys might come in handy 

[MOZ]

I have no problem with the extra buck for the 1.25x modifiers, also will take part in the SP spacebars if it starts.

[rowdy]

I have no problem with the extra buck for the 1.25x modifiers, also will take part in the SP spacebars if it starts.

Actually the extra $1 will be for 1.5x modifiers and 1x modifiers.

[tgujay]

My bad. Point is, even for $1 extra for something I have no idea about, this is a great buy.

[elton5354]

Yeah, I don't really want to do another GB...ok forget about the SP space bar then!

1.5x mods are for boards without Windows keys.

I'm just going to buy my spacebard afterwards on WASD, unlike some on here I really don't care if the color isn't a perfect match, I actually think it will look pretty cool.

[oppz197]

so its 8$ for 104 keys? Where in toronto?

[Techno Trousers]

Nothing to stop you from ordering another couple of sets of yellow, if you want

Sorry to say,  but yellow is my least wanted,  since I'm afraid the legends will blend in too much,  but I went ahead and ordered two for the team!

[elton5354]

so its 8$ for 104 keys? Where in toronto?

Going to be $9 per set now for the extra 6 keys. So 110 key caps for $9.

I'm located downtown Toronto.  I am going to set a date and time for GTA members to pick up at Pacific Mall.

That's ok   There have to be a few non-believers out there to balance the rest of us lunatics )

Thank you for supporting team yellow!

Fine by me

[vnaut]

Will the GB be extended? We've reached the red quote but I do vaguely remember Elton mentioning that the GB would only go a month.

I imagine this will keep going for a little while to see if any colours other than red will meet MOQ.

How old do you have to be to have PayPal?

[elton5354]

I think you need to be 18 years old.  PayPal needs your CC and bank account.


EDIT:
Actually you can open one up at the age of 13 with your parents..

We're grabbing click clackers young now ray, converting them at a young age only helps our cause.

[AcidFire]

can you bump me up to 4x blue and 4x black?
Thinking on it, throw 2x yellow in that mix for me as well. I believe that should put me at 10 sets.

[sonic_the_hedgehog]

Okay lads, one more push for home.

Everyone that said they were waiting to see if the extra keys would be in or out for the extra dollar, they're in, so start placing orders.

Anyone who wants to be a ***** and not pay $1 extra...

You'll be getting 110 keycaps (or keyfaps as I originally typed lol) for $9. That's 8.18 (recurring) cents per keycap. CENTS PEOPLE.

Seriously, there probably isn't a better use of ~8.2 cents in existance. You cannot buy anything as useful and/or as cool as a doubleshot keycap for ~8.2 cents these days.

BUY MOAR!!!

I couldn't have said it any better. Nicely said! 

[dko2o]

so we cant chose whether we want to add those keys for $1 or not? Also becoz there blank i don't think i have a use for them. all the 1.5 are going to be blank right?

[elton5354]

We can't because these need the same 500 MOQ, so it's either in or out and I chose them to be in. They are blanks.

[serrin]

Can you change my order to:
Red x 2
Blue x 2
Black x 1
Yellow x 1
Green x 1

Let's hit those minimum buys!

[rowdy]

To show my support for yellow, please add two (2) more yellow sets to my order

Thank you.
