(NEW UPDATE)
We will be compiling the orders today, expect to receive invoices soon. Updates on the remaining orders will go up after we done compiling the orders, so everyone knows if they got it or not. Again, thank you all for your love and support in this groupbuy! Our biggest regret is not having enough to go for everyone who's interested. :(
Justin.
------------------------------------------------
hi everyone, we have receive a few requests of transfers.
we have to be fair to those in the waiting list, which means we will not entertain any request of transferring priority rights.
if those in the priority list orders something, we will invoice that person and ship to that person only. if we noticed the name of the person or the address is different or the paypal is different, we'll cancel your order.
we all know this is a nice set, and a lot of people wanted to get their hands on it. some asked as early as after the groupbuy ends. assuming if they are in the 6th position of the list, and one person from the first 5 didn't order the full set, it means #6 got the chance to get his/her full set. but what if someone from waaay down below in the list asked the person from the first 5 who didn't order to order for him/her, then in this sense, #6 was robbed of his/her full set. how would you feel if you are #6? we don't want that to happen, and hence we will try our best to make this a fair game to everyone.
we hope that everyone understands this and we hope that everyone will work together to keep this community a clean and faithful community of keyboard enthusiasts.
Justin.
FINALE Thu, 24 November 2016, 23:36:09
CLOSING DATE: 2 Dec 2016
We are finally coming to an end for this groupbuy despite the many hurdles and problems that we hit into along the way. A big thank you to all participants to make this a success! We appreciate your patience with us, and we are very sorry for the unwanted delays but FWIW we still manage to keep the time frame well within a year :), we have tried out new methods and we have learned much from it, we'll improve ourselves and we hope to see you in our future groupbuys!
A big shout out to kekkon for taking the baton from me when my hands are full. Without him, we would probably be in a state much worse than this. He spend a lot of effort and time doing the sorting by himself when the rest of us couldn't due to various reasons. In the end, we are all very happy to see the new owners of the 9009 set proudly posting their photos!
As promised, we now will go to the leftover phase. There isn't much left, which we felt both thankful and regretful at the same time. Thankful because we manage to ship out *all* our sets, regretful because we don't have enough for everyone. With that being said, we have compiled a waiting list based on the timestamp of PMs received, and as well as posts on the thread. This may not be the best way, but it is what we decided upon.
The first link contains a list of names in order of priority to order the set.
Sheet 1 - Name list
Sheet 2 - List of extras

The second link is the Google form to submit your order. Don't have to wonder how many sets are left, just submit what you wanted to order and we will send out invoice accordingly.

__________________________________________
[OLD]
Hi everyone,
We have receive quite a lot of request regarding shipping address changes, enquiries on orders status/what have I ordered, and also refund on extra shipping charges. Please fill in the form so that I can centralize all the requests.
https://goo.gl/forms/RzekVqr1qdcbXRZQ2
In case if you don’t fall into any of the category above and have not joined my Cherry Logo GB before, please fill in the form as well because of the way Paypal works, we only have email address instead of phone number. Even though Pos Malaysia accepts shipping without phone number, we do however thinks that it is a safer way to tag the phone number to the parcel. As of now, we only have phone numbers from the previous Cherry Logo GB spreadsheet BUT we are not sure if those numbers are still in use or not.
Thanks for the help and support throughout this GB, this is our second GB (first full keyset GB, if it matters) and we are still in the learning process.
This GB has given us a very tough but good experience and we hope to improve from here on. Perhaps it is our mistake for trying too many new things into this GB and thus causing such a huge mess on top of the mess that is going to come along the way.
We got demotivated when we face with so many obstacles and there are days where we just want to
put the GB right at the back seat. We apologize that we couldn’t keep a clean record like the Cherry logo GB, in fact we created an even longer time frame as opposed to what our initial objective is, and that is fastest GB delivery record.
We failed and disappoint you guys in that aspect, but right now we are trying to wrap this up with limited manpower. Please bear with us for a little while longer, this is a beautiful set and we want to see to it that everyone got theirs.
Justin.
===========================================

UPDATE Mon, 11 July 2016, 02:47:52
Hi everyone,
My apologies for not updating much or sign in for the past week due to a long holiday over here in Malaysia.
I am yet to receive any updates from GMK, but since now my schedule is back to reality, will call up GMK and get updates from them in email format as well so I could show it to everyone here.
Again, my deepest apologies for stirring up some of your worries. :(
I've received numerous PMs about extra/leftover sets, at the moment I am unable to confirm the number of units available until I receive the whole order and shipped out the pre-orders.
Justin.
=================================================
UPDATE Thu, 16 June 2016, 22:49:59
(http://i.imgur.com/yFkE5Z0.png)
Well there's some slight delay, but here's a concrete promise by GMK. Hopefully we'll get good news from GMK about 10 days later!
Sorry, there's another email to attach here.

UPDATE Sun, 05 June 2016, 19:21:23
Sorry for the lack of updates and communication, I got absorbed into Overwatch universe. GMK has updated me that the estimate of delivery to me will be around mid of June! Invoicing will resume by batches. Those who only paid deposits will receive your invoice soon.
UPDATE Wed, 06 April 2016, 11:07:35
The wait is over (for some), the GB now resumes!

Order closed!
Last order @ 14 April 2016 11:59PM (GMT +8)
However, I'd like to point out that the sales of the spacebar is quite low. Here's the number for the spacebar order against 150 MOQ.
Spacebars ordered
White: <50%
Beige: <50%
Pink: ~70%
Olive: ~70%
The spacebar will be delivered even if it doesn't reach 150 units ordered, but what this means is the remaining spacebar will be out from my own pocket
and I probably can change my spacebar everyday without having to use the same spacebar twice.
I will appreciate it very much if you guys can chip to order some more spacebars for yourself or as a gift to others.
The order will close at 14 April 2016 11:59PM GMT+8.
=====
Alright, the reaction I get from you all are a bit unexpected, so I think I'll explain and clear it up.
First of all, yuktsi is not buying 50 sets and clobber up all the MOQ. Geez.
As radio_killah guessed it correctly, I wanted to "finalize" whatever order we have first and then make orders with GMK.
Seeing how the orders are quite slow, I am guessing probably due to the fact that the MKB community's trust in the forum GB style is at it's lowest point, no thanks to the Miami Night's drama.
So if I could get the proof of purchase from GMK early, and post it up, and then re-opens the GB, it'll regain the momentum from the community as there is valid proof to show that this GB will not go south and that this GMK 9009 set will happen.
The spacebar kits are probably just 20-30% ordered from the MOQ, but I really like the color of the spacebar and I don't want to disappoint you guys (I'm sorry that I have already make some of you felt disappointed from my announcement of the premature order closing.) who bought the spacebar kits, I will make sure the spacebar goes into production.
I will open up the GB again (no increase of price) after I have made payments to GMK next week.
Sorry again for causing the emotional turmoil :(

New update - Updated render from GMK (refer below)

About this group buy
Unlike most of the other groupbuy, this gb will proceed regardless whether the MOQ is achieved or not, simply because we love the vintage look of the Classic Beige (CB) colorway with a little hint of light colours.
The order will be placed with GMK by end of March. We hope to achieve a groupbuy with a short lead time, just like the Cherry logo pack.
Shipping
Flat rate $15 with tracking per main kit or full set (main kit + LED pack + Esc pack + Spacebar pack).
$10 if you order other kit(s) without the main kit.
If you order more than one main kit or full set, or a large quantity of the child kits, we will calculate the shipping cost upon checkout.
How to order
Order close!
*UPDATE* Realizing it may hold back people from joining this GB as ordering means paying the full amount at the point of checking out.

You can opt to pay 20%, 30% or 50% of your total order first, and pay the remaining when we are at the sorting/packing stage.
Shipping will be held until the outstanding amount has been cleared off.

Deposit Refund Policy *NEW* (Tue, 15 March 2016, 03:13:05)
While we don't enforce a non-refundable policy (people still can trigger a dispute anyhow). We strongly encourage participants to not request for a refund as we use the deposits for the initial payment to GMK, while we pay the remaining, just so we could get the production to start as soon as possible.
NOTICE:
To those wanting to pay in RMB/CNY, can order from taobao. Yongjk is helping me to handle the orders in taobao.
MOQ
There will be 150 MOQ for each of the add-on packs but no MOQ for the Main set. Depending on the final order count of the Main set, the MOQ of the add-on packs may be renegotiated with GMK.

Is the grey on the modifiers the same grey that classic beige sets have?
They should be, it's the closest colour we can get from GMK's standard colour tone, which is the U9.

Who is organizing this GB on Taobao? is it YongJK?in terms of fulfillment, they are going to be shipped from Malaysia. so there's no difference from where you place the order

Damn this is really cool of you to do. I am glad it is an available option. Most group buy leaders can't afford to front money like this.

You can opt to pay 20%, 30% or 50% of your total order first, and pay the remaining when we are at the sorting/packing stage
I'm not purchasing a set, but figured it would be a good idea for you guys to clarify now, are deposits refundable or non-refundable.

you are right, will update in OP :)
While we don't enforce a non-refundable policy (people still can trigger a dispute anyhow). We strongly encourage participants to not request for a refund as we use the deposits for the initial payment to GMK, while we pay the remaining, just so we could get the production to start as soon as possible.

Realizing it may hold back people from joining this GB as ordering means paying the full amount at the point of checking out.
We will provide an alternative for all of you who have not join the GB yet.
You can opt to pay 20%, 30% or 50% of your total order first, and pay the remaining when we are at the sorting/packing stage.
Shipping will be held until the outstanding amount has been cleared off.
Why we do this is because we want to achieve a fast turnaround time for this GB and we require co-operation from everyone to make this possible.
Use one of these coupon codes if you can't/don't want to pay the full amount yet.
Coupon Codes:-
910910 - 20% deposit
911911 - 30% deposit
912912 - 50% deposit
Doesn't this open you up to people who only make a deposit, and then change their mind and not finish paying it off? At that point you've now got the product and no assigned buyer (although this does allow you to sell to someone who wasn't in the original group buy).

Exactly what you said at the end... GMK sets can pretty much always be resold at above the groupbuy price, unless they're a disaster like TA. Even then, new TA sets tend to go for pretty high. If he has the overhead to front the money, I don't see why this isn't basically a win-win for him.

That's basically it, it's mainly to help pay off the payments to start production early. Whoever wants out can choose to sell that spot to other ppl.

Not sure why people are asking for changes/additions to the kit when this is in the GB phase and it's been stated that the current main kit is going to be made regardless of the number of orders from Gh :confused:
Not sure either. Just get OG if yo want plain Jane
First, I only just stumbled on this GB, so I didn't have an opportunity to provide my input. Second, I recognize that this particular ship has already left the dock, so I'm not requesting any changes. Third, I'm on the fence about jumping in on this GB and I am thinking out loud about my concerns, specific to my application. I am not suggesting that I should be accommodated in any way nor that you, nor anyone else should do anything different. Fourth, I am considering OG, but I find that I like the subtle touch of color ... hence my conundrum.
I apologize if expressing my concern and observations has caused you any inconvenience.

Thank you all for showing your keen interest in classic colour theme in this groupbuy.
This just shows that the colour theme choice for this set is on point! :D
From the many GB that I see over the years, I have come to a conclusion that, it's almost impossible to please everyone.
The discussion about going for icon mods or text mods will be endless, like it or not, there will always be people who loves icon mod, or text mod, or both.
Same goes to winkey logos. It's almost like a debate/war between religions, or political parties.
There hasn't been any icon mod Classic beige set going around, other than the WoB icon mod GB that is going on now.
That's why we choose to run this instead of text mod, but I believe there's more text mod available than icon mod.
However, I understand the struggle of seeing a nice looking set but not everything suits your taste. There just have to be one flaw. :confused:
and how do I know? because I personally like icon mod and text mod together :))
so I have gone through enough frustration to see most of the GMK gb uses text mod in the end.
I apologize to those who is interested in the set but have to accept the "flaw". :(
If possible, I would want to add in text mod as well, but that would balloon the cost per set dramatically and no one would be able to throw in that amount of money :confused:
Maybe in future someone might do a text mod gb if there's enough interest.
No chance of just getting the colored modifiers then, I guess? I wouldn't use a black on beige set but I'd love to have the modifiers lying around for ****s and giggles. Anyways, in for an esc pack.
If I add in a colour mod pack, I might probably end up with too many Enter keys :))

100% agree. I'd love to see this from every group buy moving forward. To clarify, at this point that's not an official moderator decree, but rather I hope that we the community ask for it (and it may be an official requirement at some point in the near future).

While I have a good mind to post proof of purchase from GMK after seeing the drama of Miami nights, I'm not entirely sure what you meant by scheduled updates, but I here's what I can promise; I will update/screenshot whenever I have new substantial information to let you guys know such as if there's changes in the payment deadline, provide proof of purchase to GMK, when receive shipping updates from GMK, receiving it, asking for outstanding payments, sorting/packing, and shipping them out. More or less the same way as I handled my other Cherry Logo GB, just that this has an extra proof of purchase to update.
Sounds fair enough to keep you comfortable on your seats? :))

The row 4 key to the right of shift for ISO UK should be \| and the key to the left of ISO enter on row 3 should be ~# and the the shift modifier of 3 should be £.
I'm not sure what form of ISO this kit supports exactly? Can someone educate me a bit?
AFAIK the ISO keys are just to make the set fit on an ISO (not necessarily UK) keyboard - you will still have US legends including the double # etc.
Post by: PriusProblems on Sat, 19 March 2016, 12:32:12
EDIT: Just looked at the new renders, and saw that the (ISO Add-on)# key next to the ISO enter has an ' above it. Are there any versions of ISO that have ' instead of ~? ISO UK certainly doesn't.

I suppose it seems a lot when it's so easy to get every set ever in ANSI. When you look at all the different variations of ISO, it's obvious that not all can be covered. But when sets include support for HHKB layouts and a multitude of other (probably) more niche setups, it makes you wonder why at least ISO UK can't be supported, since after the small shift and ISO enter, its only 4 different keys. It may seem to be asking a lot, but when you look at the price (including the wait time and the shipping to the UK) and also the additional child sets that are included, it is pretty demoralising to know you still can't properly equip your board.

It's a slippery slope though. You're asking non UK ISO users to pay for your keys (lets face it a large % of users don't need them) and this is a GMK set which is not cheap or easy to produce.
This topic has been beaten to death in just about every GMK GB :))
If I was using another form of ISO, I'd find it pretty demoralizing to be forced to use UK ISO layout! It's really impossible to please everyone. Just look at the Granite international compatability set:
(http://i.imgur.com/k48EnvZ.jpg)
This is WITHOUT any consideration of key profile (DSA is the same on each row)... My girlfriend uses the Canadian multilingual standard keyboard which is also a ISO layout and not even Granite supports it :(
Anyone can get UK ISO caps made. All you need to do is find 250 UK ISO users and get a compatibility GB going.

Thanks, that is what I was looking for with my original question of "Are there any versions of ISO that have ' instead of ~?" before people started getting shirty. Seeing that GMK is a German company, I now see no problem with the key legends in this set, and will be purchasing it as soon as the ISO enter colour is confirmed.
Post by: Malenky on Sat, 19 March 2016, 15:33:58
It's a slippery slope though.
Point well made. Of course I am biased, I'd love to see it as an optional child set of some sort though.
I wonder what the actual numbers are for people using this set for HHKB layout vs ISO UK, or any of the other ISO layouts.
Maybe it's time I sold up all my keyboard and re-bought in ANSI!

Post by: justnits on Sat, 19 March 2016, 23:39:34
I will be answering questions shortly.
=============
Alright, again I apologize to the ISO users, but really, it's quite complicating for the ANSI users to determine what is the proper layout for ISO users as some of you have pointed out, there's so many different iso layout out there :eek:
On the other hand, it's quite difficult to add in keys for ISO because they add up the cost of the whole set when majority of the community doesn't need them. We tried to include support for the ISO keys without ballooning the price.
If you look at the ISO survey response sheet, I think you would probably understand why it's so difficult.
Here's the screenshot I took like 5 minutes ago.
(http://i.imgur.com/Sb3lZMr.png)
Only 6 people responded. :(
Sorry to say, but at this stage, I can safely say that we won't be adding any Enter key for ISO.

Probably allocated enough funds to pay for 150 sets straight up. That way he could pay GMK quickly and get this produced. That way he only needs to be reimbursed for the 150 sets and can get production started as soon as possible.

awww, wth? been waiting for funds to come in... why was 150 listed as MOQ and not a capped limit?
150 is the new MOQ for GMK. Like Justnits has said before he would pay for the sets basically up front in order to insure quick turn around. Basically he capped it at 150 so he would hit MOQ and thus only had to sell 149 sets to reimburse himself.
It just so happened that Yuktsi bought out 50 sets of that 150.

Personally not too bothered but next time you should make it clear that there are ONLY 150 kits. There was no mention of a cap on the number of orders so a few people will rightfully be pissed off.
Post by: yuktsi on Mon, 21 March 2016, 11:44:27
Does the group buy closing earlier mean that these will bit production sooner?I want to sell them at inflated price.
Also damn Yuktsi that is baller of you to buy 50 sets. I'm sure you will share though ;)
Just joking. I have only 1 set from Justin.

It was more explicitly spelled out in the Cherry Logo Esc buy, but not in this one. OP should probably just make a new term (or two new terms) to explain this (and to have folks ask 'what's this?' incessantly), like MaxOQ, to avoid all this in the future.
Very disappointing.

First of all, yuktsi is not buying 50 sets and clobber up all the MOQ. Geez.
As radio_killah guessed it correctly, I wanted to "finalize" whatever order we have first and then make orders with GMK.
Seeing how the orders are quite slow, I am guessing probably due to the fact that the MKB community's trust in the forum GB style is at it's lowest point, no thanks to the Miami Night's drama.
So if I could get the proof of purchase from GMK early, and post it up, and then re-opens the GB, it'll regain the momentum from the community as there is valid proof to show that this GB will not go south and that this GMK 9009 set will happen.
The spacebar kits are probably just 20-30% ordered from the MOQ, but I really like the color of the spacebar and I don't want to disappoint you guys (I'm sorry that I have already make some of you felt disappointed from my announcement of the premature order closing.) who bought the spacebar kits, I will make sure the spacebar goes into production.
I will open up the GB again (no increase of price) after I have made payments to GMK next week.
Sorry again for causing the emotional turmoil :(

If you are going to limit the total number of orders, that really should be spelled out clearly in the OP. I'm also not following why you have chosen to close it early. If every order were made in the pre-order fashion by requirement (thus requiring more and more money to be fronted by yourself for each additional order), I could understand, but why not allow these people to enter at this point and pay in full? There is no additional money required from yourself, only additional orders. Can you please explain your reasoning in greater detail?
It is a fairly well-documented fact that the vast majority of orders for group buys come in during the first few days and last few days of the purchase window, so "slow" orders is not a good indicator of a lack of interest, just FYI.

It's my bad for the confusing info about the MOQ in my OP.
There's definitely a limited number to produce, what I initially meant was that there's no need to worry about not hitting MOQ as I will top up the remaining to hit the MOQ of 150 (I personally feel 250 is a bit far-fetched at this period of time)
The GB for this doesn't quite follow the usual pre-order fashion that we are familiar with. I'm trying out something new, the deposit payment is something new, but it has it's pros and cons, kind of like a double-edged sword. At this point, it feels quite risky if people starts asking for refunds and wants out, that's why I wanted to "end" early and pay GMK with whatever funds I have received from the orders thus far to secure those orders.
Like you said, people will start ordering as it comes nearer to the end of the deadline, so I figured if I could "close" the order, and from there I can see how many more people are actually interested in it. Moreover I see some comments saying (not from this thread) that they won't ever join GB anymore or somewhere along that line. So that's why I thought about getting the proof of purchase from GMK early to gain back the trust from the community. By doing so, I get to secure the existing orders, get a peek to see if there's actually more interest in this keyset, get proof of purchase from GMK, get more orders, get our set made earlier seeing there's other GMK GB going on at the moment and one of my personal goal is to get the sets done with as little delay as possible. I didn't like to wait for almost a year or over a year for my keysets, and I certainly don't want my groupbuyers to wait that long either. Lead time from GMK will take about 2 months assuming if GMK don't have any other big orders in hand. If my orders reaches GMK late, there's a high chance it might be overtaken by other GB.
I didn't mean to cause so much frustration to the community, but I hope my reasoning and explanation here make sense as I am typing this at 2AM in my local time. :-X
If there's any questions, I'll only be able to answer them tomorrow (my local time is +8 GMT) as I need my rest now.

So if I could get the proof of purchase from GMK early, and post it up, and then re-opens the GB,I'm curious, how does ordering at GMK works?
You hit the 150 MOQ, then what? You'll place an order at the company for 150 sets and then add more later?
That confuses me.

I would assume it's just another order through GMK's eyes. Can't be too complicated right?
Post by: TalkingTree on Mon, 21 March 2016, 15:27:43
Wouldn't that greatly delay the productions of the second batch of sets? GMK would make the first 150 then run through their schedule (and I guess as a big company they don't just make keycaps for geekhackers), then eventually run another batch? There could be months in between.So if I could get the proof of purchase from GMK early, and post it up, and then re-opens the GB,I'm curious, how does ordering at GMK works?

You order X amount of sets and they give you a price based on your quote for the key set that you desire. Then you pay. Justnits is saying that he only wanted to order 150 sets total which is GMK's minimum order quantity and no more.
He only got a quote for 150 sets total produced. So if he went over 150 he would need a revised quote.

You're doing great. And I think I speak for behalf of everyone involved in the GB, that we appreciate the time and effort you have put in to ensuring all possible scenarios, as well as trying your best to get us the sets quickly.
Like all things, this is definitely a learning experience - especially when you are testing out new modes of purchasing/delivery. So you are bound ot hit some hiccups along the way.
Keep up the great work and don't be discouraged! Everyone who is commenting here is either a, genuinely curious to understand your thought process (which you've now explained succinctly), b, is excited for their set, or c, is frustrated they did't get a chance at getting in on the buy - but their frustrations aren't targeted at you.. Just at missing the first (of what seems to be at least two) waves of this keyset.
Get some rest!

Now if the group buy organizer did not want to ship more than around 150 orders then that should have been stated, or maybe that person should not be running a group buy and someone willing to do the work should. You can't piggyback off members to get what you want, then leave a bunch of other ready and willing members out in the cold. I appreciate what Justnits is doing, but you don't want to alienate or make sudden changes where the community is concerned.

If any of the GB organizers feel like they have had enough than so be it. These people are not corporations where they get paid to send packages and organize. At the end of the day it's the organizers call to say when they need to stop. I'd rather the organizer do lots of small runs than 1 giant one that might take longer than the small ones.
While I agree this should've been stated in the OP for changes its still not your GB. Oh well move on. I don't mean to sound so rude, but some people feel entitled to have things work for them. Just my 2 cents.
Post by: danielucf on Tue, 22 March 2016, 09:19:35
I will never understand why people feel entitled to something. If you liked the set and had the funds you should've joined then. If you think people need to cater to you however it pleases you I think you should take a step back and think again.

It isn't an entitlement idea, it is an end date was stated then with no notice the buy was closed early. I shouldn't be surprised you and others may feel this way considering the selfishness of this hobby. It is not like this buy was going to run for 2 or 3 months and happened to close a little early, it was going to run for a few weeks and closed in half that time. This might be the first "group buy" that wasn't really a group buy, and ended really early. Naturally people are surprised and upset in this new scenario.
There is still no reason orders can't be taken still. I don't see what difference reopening now will have over opening later. Are they going to order 150 sets now, reopen and then try and piggy back more orders in before production starts? Or are we going to be trying for a new MOQ of 150 and might fall short and others are left out?
Post by: skuko on Tue, 22 March 2016, 09:33:52
my personal opinion - if you didn't manage to get in, tough luck. it is up to the GB organizer to decide how it's organized, even though i think that it could have been more transparent from the get go in this case.
difference? what about the work of sorting out 150 sets instead of 300 sets? if he never dealt with that kind of thing, i couldn't blame him for wanting to start out smaller.
also, seeing all the drama around Ivan and his GBs and the general increase in distrust, i can't blame justnits for wanting to place the order and proof thereof ASAP.
edit:
moral of the story - no matter what you do or how you do it, there are still going to be dissatisfied people. don't let that discourage you, justnits.

He should have stated how many sets was the maximum he wanted to handle, and the chance that he may close early.
Also there is 180 day window with PayPal, he could show the order was placed after 90 days and everyone would still be happy. His rush to post this information sooner is literally making people upset and alienating members of the COMMUNITY. This is a community still right? With some peoples attitudes lately I'm not so sure anymore...
Hey people got theirs so everyone else is an entitled ******* amirite? Just imagine it closed one day before you got to order, put yourself in someone else's shoes if you are capable.

you're blowing it way out of proportion, i think. i have the utmost respect for you daniel, but calling him out like he's trying to destroy this community is a tad far-fetched. i put my order in the same day it was posted.
i of course sympathize with the guys that were cut off, i'm in the same place with skidata+ albeit due to my own stupidity.
i think it should've been communicated way more clearly in the OP from the start, no doubt about it. if you want to convince justnits to reopen the GB and/or reason with him, i support you. but use a less accusatory tone please, just saying.

For those talking about adding to MOQ I've never heard of anyone doing that with GMK, once the order is placed that's usually it.
This doesn't really fit what most of us are used to calling a group buy but I supposed you get a quicker turn around and have less to worry about with sorting and shipping with fewer orders.
Post by: yuktsi on Tue, 22 March 2016, 10:48:33
Seriously, he just doesn't want those who have paid to wait 5-6 months, or even more than a year. It's his first/second time running Groupbuy, please be nice to him.

After loosing almost $300 to the hands of Ivan, I think that it’s a great idea to keep the size of the order and total processing time down. I also love the idea of posting the proof of purchase from GMK ASAP. Like that people can get their money back, up to 180 days if no proof of purchase is given.
But as justnits said in the OP
Quote
Seeing how the orders are quite slow, I am guessing probably due to the fact that the MKB community's trust in the forum GB style is at it's lowest point, no thanks to the Miami Night's drama.
I’m in that boat! And this is one of the reasons I had not placed an order yet. The other reason is because I KNEW (from justnits’s OP) that I still had time to make up my mind (and getting paid at the end of the month helps too).
No where did justnits say that he wanted to keep the maximum size of this GB a certain size or that the GB COULD close early.
Because justnits closed this early we’re not sure if:
A - justnits will be able to increase the order size after submitting the order to GMK
B - We’ll need to reach a new MOQ of 150 for a next round (and wait god knows how long)
So if we’re not able to reach another MOQ for a 2nd round, is it going to be too bad for us because we believed what justnits said in his OP?
justnits wants to show good faith by sharing proof of the GMK order, but how can we put our trust in him if he doesn’t respect the dates he gave in the OP?
TL;DR posting the GMK order is a good idea, I want this set, and that justnits needs to work on his communication

Again, I didn't have the intention of causing upset to those who missed out this GB (to be honest, I really didn't put in high expectations when I start this GB, hence I have in mind to run it at lower MOQ which I failed to convey that message across in the OP). I didn't expect the kind of reaction from so many people when I prematurely close the GB. In a sense, I am glad to see this kind of reaction, that people actually want to join this GB so badly that they are frustrated and upset (No, I am not a sadistic person) even though there's a breach of trust from a prominent member's GB.
I will try to answer more questions tomorrow, I don't think it's a good idea to answer questions when one is tired :))

I will open up the GB again (no increase of price) after I have made payments to GMK next week.
Sorry again for causing the emotional turmoil :(
But, if I understand this correct justnits would reopen the GB for the same price so people in doubt can jump in to this GB (w/ only i guess ~100 base sets available) when he present the invoice/receipt from GMK. So for those people who got cut out (upto ~100) they can still join in I believe? But do agree a bit that there should have been a fair warning at least. Anyway most GB here tend to follow this rule of "my GB my rules" (w/c I take it as no rules) anyway so I don't know what sets this apart.
I for one was not planning to join this as I'm done on community run GB due to my lost in Miami from a "reputable and respected member" but the deposit route, option to refund and proof of purchase (things I highly commend on this GB) made me decide to place my orders. For me this GB or justnits is trying to make changes for the good if there are faults along the way then I guess the next GB should pick from that. My 2 cents.

It’s never I good idea to start answering questions when you’re tired (even more if english isn’t your first language)
When you do, please try to answer what the plan is for all the people that wanted to order but couldn’t.
You said that you plan to reopen the buy. In what way? If this is a new GB please give as many details as humanly possible.
- minimum order quantity
- maximum order quantity
- start and end dates for ordering
- start end dates for payments
- date when you will place order to GMK (with proof of order)
- as well as everything you gave before (prices and everything else)
The biggest problem that we (people that wanted to order) had, is that we didn’t have all the details you had in your head and could only base ourselves on what was in the OP.
Thanks :)
PS: And if for any reason you have any extras from this 1st round, you can put me down for one of everything

I'm still sympathetic for the people that didn't get in, but remember justnits did mention he wouldn't mind doing another one at the same price point. Don't get salty just because someone doesn't want to take on the extra load of organizing the GB. Honestly justnits you're doing a great job and as long as you keep us updated with all the movement (pictures would be nice too) I don't see anyone complaining.
Good luck justnits, let's see some updates soon. :)

Agreed. However, He did not mention in the OP that there would be a maximum order quantity. I think that you'll agree that this is a pretty important detail to leave out. Secondly, he specifically said that ordering would be open until the end of the month, whereas he closed the buy two weeks early.
So, while this does not make justnits a bad person (I don't think that anyone has made that accusation) based on recent events, people are understandably nervous when a GB does not proceed as outlined in the GB's OP.
His was an error of omission. If you want people to trust and do business with you, full disclosure is your friend. Then, obviously, it is necessary to follow through on the commitments that you've made. If an adjustment ever becomes necessary, due to unforeseen events, you must ALWAYS explain this to the customer up front, BEFORE unilaterally changing the terms of the deal / contract.
I'm sure that justnits is everything that you say that he is and more. Hopefully he will treat this as a learning experience, instead of just a bollocking and his future GBs and business dealings will be even more successful as a result.

It's his gb to run however he wants, it's not made to tailor to others, he is putting his vision of his idea in to the world, and it's up to others who wants to join on his terms
Me and justnits have had a couple issues (all my fault) and he has proven himself to me to be organised, polite, patient and accommodating, all skills that will serve him incredibly well running buys

Any implicit deal/contract that existed between those who entered and justnits remains unchanged; people are still paying the same amount for a keyset. There's literally zero reason to be skeptical as a participant, as nothing from your perspective is different except that you'll get your set earlier.
There never existed a deal/contract with those who didn't enter into the group buy. Next time, don't drag your heels. Lesson learned: things change and buys might close at unexpected times for whatever reason. So be it. This won't be your last opportunity to get a beige keyset, and justnits has explicitly said that there will be another opportunity to get this exact one. Let's trust him on that instead of assuming the worst of the situation.

Only 47 were sold for the base sets. I know because Justin is using my site. He told me that with his way, the sets will be delivered in June/July.
Seriously, he just doesn't want those who have paid to wait 5-6 months, or even more than a year. It's his first/second time running Groupbuy, please be nice to him.Show Image(http://cdn.meme.am/instances/20597850.jpg)

I have not read through all the comments, there seems to be a lot of pitchforks out there, but these buys can take ages, and everyone leaves paying to the very end. This GB even offered a deposit system, which I thought was brilliant for those who couldn't afford it immediately.

It is his GB, there may be discrepencies, but hey, again this is not a business, this is someone doing something for the community. Should everything have been laid out, maybe, but then again things will get forgotten, some GB's have more detail than others, some are quicker, some offer less for more, some run away with your money.
The common factor seems to be the witch hunt when everyone is not happy. I am sure sets will appear on the mechmarket, i am sure there will be extras, let's be patient and see what happens.
You're doing a great job justnits, I would love to see this race to the finish line in front of some of the other GB's

I am still new in handling such GB, and I am trying to find the balance here as to how many sets I can handle without breaking myself or cause the whole GB to delay due to extra orders or extended deadlines. Just so you guys know, if I re-open the order, it's not a new order or R2, but a continuation from where I close it. There's no first batch or second batch, everyone's order will reach to me at the same time.
I know I can't please or meet everyone's request/expectations, but I try to do that without changing my preferred pace/method too much, because at the end of the day, I am responsible for whatever I promised in this GB, not the people who request for it. I apologize if this GB doesn't run the way how some people like it, but I only can make changes if it's within my reach.
More updates to come next week.
Anyway, I receive a reply from GMK late last night.

Buy both and sell the other one later. You'll get cost if not more.
Sorry to be annoying. I am torn between this set and the retro classic set. It looks like they offer the same base but have different extra keys for non standard layouts and different flavour keys. I'll have to make a decision by April 17 as that is when retro GMK closes. Will this GB have reopened by then? and I wasn't clear whether the re-opened GB will have to reach an MOQ or if orders are certain

It's not annoying, nobody will bash you for asking questions.
We have already submitted payments to GMK, just waiting for their confirmation email.
Once I got them, I will open-up the order again.

Put an order for a main set. I still can't believe how large the offer is just for the main; at $140, it seems to be a pretty good bargain.
Yeah, I'm really happy with the keys that were chosen. I was confused at first with the extra set of Del, PgDn, PgUp, End, but I realize now that it will be perfect for my upcoming Octagon :D

Sometimes, you just have to start it lol! But I am guessing it's probably due to the community becoming more appreciative towards GMK keycaps.
Thanks for keeping us updated with screenshots, much appreciated!
Thank you!
I've ordered already, but looking at the website again has me excited! Such a cool cap set :thumb:

Spacebars ordered
White: <50%
Beige: <50%
Pink: ~70%
Olive: ~70%
Unlike Massdrop, the spacebar will be delivered even if it doesn't reach 150 units ordered, but what this means is the remaining spacebar will be out from my own pocket
and I probably can change my spacebar everyday without having to use the same spacebar twice.
I will appreciate it very much if you guys can chip to order some more spacebars for yourself or as a gift to others.
Thanks for reopening, Just ordered some led packs
Thanks justnits for the update. Appreciate that you're starting this type of approach for GBs.

No, if you have already ordered other kits from 9009 GB, we'll refund you the shipping charges done for separate orders since we'll ship them together anyway, but kindly put in a remark on your order that you have previously ordered something from 9009 GB.

This form needs to be consistent with either using colour codes or colour names for ALL choices.

When you select a different colour, a different spacebar is highlighted. It's not very obviously because when the "white" one is greyed out, it appears to be more white, but when selected it is L9. An additional confusion is the fact that the list for spacebar colours is reversed when compared to the render. I am pretty sure it's white though, as there are only two colours that it could be and since they are "white" and "beige", I doubt very much that the lighter colour would be called beige and the darker colour be called white.

Since there are only two of the colours to work out, I'm pretty sure that white is L9. There would be no reason to call the lighter one "beige" and then the darker one "white". When you select the colours from the dropdown, it highlights it on the image, which is confusing because the L9 one looks more white when greyed out, as well as the dropdown being reversed when compared to the render.
To clarify, I'm almost certain white is L9, which is the colour you're after.
Could always just buy one of each to make sure I guess.

I need the same color space bars (L9).
Since there are only 4 colored spacebars offered I assumed it was the ones being called "white" since L9 is the closest color to white out of 4.

Coupons are for orders over $100, meaning full sets only, does that mean that orders for small kits, like spacebars and leds, should be paid in full upfront? It is not that bad really, just asking.

if you need extra orders, just re-order from the site.
if there's additional shipping charge (assuming if you have made at least an order before this), we'll refund this extra shipping charge to you as we work on the site's ordering system, BUT please make a remark on your order so it's easier to keep track of all your orders :)

Don't forget to ask YongJK91 about my order on taobao, justnits.
Yup :)
Also, it's easier to check if you provide me your taobao id.
PM me.

Just placed an order for the base set + LED caps! I backed out of the GMK Classic Beige GB because these will fit my ZZ96 better. ;)I am also planning on getting a ZZ96 and beige set. Could you educate me how this fits better? I'm a noob
Excited!

Sure!
The GMK Classic GB uses R5 for some of the extra modifier keys, which messes up the layout I want to use on the bottom row: 1.25,1.25,6.25,1.5,1.5,1,1. The keys to the right of the sidebar would be R5 and the left including spacebar R4. They did this for classic Cherry boards. I don't have one, don't want a bottom R5, and don't care or need Cherry themed caps.
This GB doesn't mess with R5 and has interesting color options, plus even more additional keys. The only thing I'll miss is the Win 95 logo, even if it was pad printed. :cool:

I really wanted the symbol mods in Classic Retro, but this is a much better set, so joined it instead! Maybe I can find someone to trade with when both have shipped. I have Caps remapped to Ctrl, so I won't have to use the handbag!

Just as a way to balance the opinions, you guys should consider that for modern keyboards that have R4 only bottom row, the approach of 9009 makes sense; however, the Classic Retro, as its name is, offer both R4 1.25u mods and R5 1.5u mods, being a classic set it should have an R5 bottom row. The problem is if you want to mix them, then this 9009 may fit your needs better, but I would not say that one is better than the other, or that Classic Retro mess with something. Just my two cents.

All the Window-LED keys,Old Windows, Menu, Cherry icon are pad printed.
Others keys are double-shot.
I rather have a crappy win8/10 doubleshot keycap than a retro win95 pad printed keycap.

Set looks great! Everyone who got in should enjoy it! I was initially torn between this and Classic Retro, but then I tried to join this buy too late and my decision was made for me =/.

Didn't give me time to properly reply here or thank Justin though, so... thanks so much Justin! You're the best and I really appreciate it!
Unfortunately, since I've already committed to retro, couldn't justify the base kit =/. I love both mods for both sets, so I really wish one buy had a mods only option, but... Oh well! Maybe I'll grab them aftermarket, or just splurge today and get two sets of beige alphas, just for the mods. We'll see!
Thanks again Justin. Also, kudos on another great buy!

I'll take the Esc pack if you don't mind splitting it up. Understand if you don't want to but would be great if you could.

If anyone wants my spot you can grab it for the exact same amount I paid for which is the Main kit, LED, and Esc pack. Message me and we'll both message justnits confirming the transfer.

I'm saying I would be willing to pay $20 for the Escape pack alone and that I would even take on the LED pack even though I don't really need/want it. That way you can just get someone else to take over the base kit. Sorry if I was unclear.

One of my friends in my MKB circle pointed out that Germans has quite a bit of public holidays during the month of May, not sure if this will affect the production time from GMK or not...
Any germans can verify this? :p Is this supposedly a lazier month besides oktoberfest, Christmas and new year?

Definitely don't take orders from Giorgio, as he likes to do chargebacks without communicating with the buy organizers beforehand.What? Is it still possible to join? It was stated that it was closing in ten days!
ThanksThe orders came in unexpectedly fast as I was quite busy over the weekends.
Will be submitting the orders to GMK by next week.
Don't lose hope, maybe we might have extras from drop outs or in classified.
Also just not a cool dude overall.
I still remember the whole Signature Plastics fiasco.

Sorry if I was a little quiet over here, I was mostly communicating a bit more on the other Cherry keys GB thread as it's coming to a closure and going to start on the leftover sales.

Yes it's true. They observe labour day like us, plus another couple public holidays related to easter (not sure how/why). In fact, it's a holiday there today (16th May).

I'm just posting here to let you guys know I'm still alive and well, no accidents, no family members struck by illness (well my bro-in-law got out from operation about a week plus ago, the operation seems major but at the same time, it seems like it's no big deal) and the same as you guys, waiting very patiently for the sets to arrive from GMK. OT: waiting for Overwatch official launch is not cool :(

+1, otherwise, people should keep checking the thread and look up for OP replies, it is not efficient.

My apologies for not updating much or sign in for the past week due to a long holiday over here in Malaysia.
I am yet to receive any updates from GMK, but since now my schedule is back to reality, will call up GMK and get updates from them in email format as well so I could show it to everyone here.
Again, my deepest apologies for stirring up some of your worries. :(
I've received numerous PMs about extra/leftover sets, at the moment I am unable to confirm the number of units available until I receive the whole order and shipped out the pre-orders.
Justin.

also, sorry for the wait, this isn't exactly in our idea of "fast time frame", but we're trying our best to deliver this ASAP.
my next update would be on the remaining payments and possible date of shipping.
in the mean time, if there's a need to change your shipping address, kindly PM me with keyword like "9009" "change of address" in the title, makes it easier to identify them.

However if there are keys in the classic retro group buy that you like then maybe we can trade.
I would like to cover a Zz96 style board so would like the R1 End, del, pgUp, pgDown keys from this and the ISO |\ and # keys. I'm also willing to outright buy those if someone wants to dump unused keys to cheapen the cost of their set! :thumb: :thumb:
Keep in mind that if you are ANSI / use this set to cover a 40%, 60%, 70%, tenkeyless or even full sized boards, you won't ever need those extra R1 keys or Iso keys!

Would appreciate if the updates came more regularly at the end of group buys rather than at the beginning, you've had the sets for 3 weeks with our sets and no updates, you obviously don't care much about the community (you're so busy right? don't try that ****) so now like most other group buys I'm just hoping I'll actually get my keyset.
The good news is I just gave the group buy leader a reason to show up, claim I'm some impatient buyer or worse lie that he's sorry when he's probably not, and everyone else will benefit by getting an update, just ****ing maybe. G'day and I hope you all actually get your keys in a timely fashion, if at all

I believe I owe everyone an apology for the lack of updates.
TL;DR
SH!T HAPPENS, FIXING OTW, MORE UPDATES TO COME THIS WEEKEND.
Unlike the Cherry Logo Packs GB, this 9009 set comes with the GMK tray, and thus, whether it’s a good thing or not, it was delivered with a whopping 6 huge boxes, weighing 20 KG each.
(http://i.imgur.com/ZNpe4pB.jpg)
So we (K, L, and Y) decided to put this boxes at Y’s house, and plan to sort the 9009 set during the weekends. We actually have scheduled to finish all of these orders in 3 weeks’ time due to the pre-sorted keycaps by GMK for this GB.
On the first Sunday, we start unpacking those boxes and start putting all the 4 separate/loose kits to each orders. It’s actually not as easy as we thought it might be, mostly because the tray actually couldn’t fit all the keycaps and GMK split out 3 keycaps (2x Numpad Enter, 1x 7u L9 Spacebar) into separate packaging, where we need to manually compile them into one of the LED/ESC packs packing bag.
The 7u space bar can’t fit in any of these bag if the buyer’s orders are without additional spacebar packs. To make it worst, we forgot to bring the cherry logo’s leftover packing bag over to Y’s house. (Unprepared, our bad)
Most of us have our own schedule, and so we only have time to meet up during the weekends. That wasn’t the end of our trouble. Since Y is living with his parents and siblings, we didn’t expect that his family have a sudden plan to travel outstation for a holiday, which make us can’t access to his house and do the sorting and packing.
Also, one of our sorting team member’s schedule is subject to his partner’s liking, that sometimes ruins our schedule due to insufficient manpower.
We realized it is the third week now since we received/sort/packing, and we know that we need to do something about this, otherwise eventually it might spun out of control and the delivery timeframe will be messed up and you guys will be unhappy.
So I (K) decided to bring in these boxes back to my home, although it is much smaller than Y’s house with limited work space, at least I am able to do the sorting at night and the progress will be much faster than everyone doing it in Y’s house during weekends. Hopefully I will be able to update by this weekend.

We didn’t inform you guys here, but we did add on the tray at the last minute of ordering with GMK.
Mainly because we are curious about the tray, whether it has any improvements since GMK TA, and also we thought that perhaps it’ll make the sorting/packing much easier and with minimal damage during shipment.
However, we do know that not everyone might want the tray, as we have no choice but to collect additional fee for it, so we are giving an option to you guys as we didn't inform beforehand as well.
The cost for the tray will be an additional $10, which covers for the tray, custom hard boxes to fit the tray, extra shipping cost due to the box’s dimension, and paypal fee.
*Take note that this is only applicable to those who order Full Set.
Please respond to this as soon as possible, sorry for messing this GB up this way :(

Thanks for all the work and the detailed updates. I could picture there being a ****load of work involved and I try to sympathize with it all but I can't deal with lack of communication which makes me a bad candidate for GBs.
yes, i won't forgive myself for the lack of update on our side as GB organizers.
i admit that there are many times we got demotivated because of the obstacles that pops out of nowhere.
there isn't any excuse for us, but i promise that from here on, we somehow manage to pick ourselves up and we will be rolling this GB out in full steam.

I know these group buys are a lot of hard work, so seeing real, honest updates and photos is brilliant. I (and probably everyone else involved) understand that delays and other issues happen, it's almost to be expected, as long as we're kept up to date, it's all good!

It's a different tray this time. GMK modified them to make them sturdier. One way to spot the difference is the different buttons placed along the tray which snap into various parts, making them more secure.

Hi, please fill in the form as well so that we know you already get the newest information. TQ!

Good news : Surprisingly, manage to get all orders sorted.
Bad news : We will need to wait for the custom boxes to start shipping.
As for those who want the tray, we will start the invoicing next week.
For those who don't want the tray, we will try and send out those next week. :)
Thanks for the support throughout the GB!
I will try to take some photo on the sorted keycaps tomorrow. :))

firstly, fill in this Google form for full set order (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScCGxtcx7zOlmPUw9EJHaPTEi7dx-35jHzkdPBaWhnMTmzZQA/viewform).
we need you to fill in this as soon as possible to make our task easier.
our priority is towards the people who orders full set and fills in the form. (please fill-in even if you don't want the tray, this is to let us know that you are aware of it.)
if you didn't fill-in the form yet, we will wait until you do so before we ship them out.
secondly, our sorting process are progressing well, once we are done with that, we'll be selling whatever the leftovers if we have any. stay tune for that.
Justin.

Hi, if your address will be changed in 1 month (2~4weeks) from now, is better to wait for the new address, caused the parcel normally will stuck between USA custom for at least 1~2weeks. :p

If I end up moving it will be on, or around Sept. 15th.
I think I've only had a package get held up in customs for 1-2 weeks like two times. Most of the time my packages only take a couple of days before they clear customs.

Sorry for this, coordination and logistics issues on our side :(
Also, for those asking for extras, I got words that we may not have any extras of Full set. :-\

I was going to post some orders with tray today, and I was surprised to find out that POS Malaysia has increased the minimum charges for normal air parcel from $15 to a whopping $30!
With that kind of shipping cost, I believe that it was way too much to ship for just a tray of keycaps, in the best interest of not inflating the GB cost, we think that we should ship 9009 orders in the good ol’ fashion way - zip lock bags.
We are extremely sorry for this to happen, and as an apology, we will include a BOW (Black on L9 White) Cherry Logo key as a gift for those who opt for the tray add-on in order to compensate the PP fees loss during refund.
For the rest of the orders, we are still working on packing up the orders as it’s actually quite time consuming to transfer the tray to the zip-lock bags with the intention of not wanting to scratch the keys.
We expect to resume the shipping phase again in near future after we managed to sort all the orders into zip lock bags. In case if it takes too long to pack them (packing doesn’t mean putting keycaps into zip lock bags only, it also means putting them into the right box, getting the address right on the labels, sticking the labels to the right box.) we might ship them in batches, whichever we can get it done efficiently.
Sorry to keep you guys waiting and thanks for the support and understanding.
For those who want to have a look on how the packing looks like :-

In case if it takes too long to pack them (packing doesn’t mean putting keycaps into zip lock bags only, it also means putting them into the right box, getting the address right on the labels, sticking the labels to the right box.) we might ship them in batches, whichever we can get it done efficiently.
Sorry to keep you guys waiting and thanks for the support and understanding.
For those who want to have a look on how the packing looks like :-

** GOING TO REFUND FOR TRAY ADD-ON, PACKING IN ZIP LOCK BAG **
I was going to post some orders with tray today, and I was surprised to find out that POS Malaysia has increased the minimum charges for normal air parcel from $15 to a whopping $30!
With that kind of shipping cost, I believe that it was way too much to ship for just a tray of keycaps, in the best interest of not inflating the GB cost, we think that we should ship 9009 orders in the good ol’ fashion way - zip lock bags.
We are extremely sorry for this to happen, and as an apology, we will include a BOW (Black on L9 White) Cherry Logo key as a gift for those who opt for the tray add-on in order to compensate the PP fees loss during refund.

Sorry for the hiatus over the week, it was a very busy week for me on both personal and working life.
I've manage to sort 80% of orders over the week and 20% left for sorting, which I will tried to get it all sort over this week.
Shipping wise, I always tried to ship all orders at once, sorry for keep you all waiting but I am trying my best now.
As for the remaining payment, I am still waiting my friend to consolidate and give me and Justin an update.

What a cluster****.
How were the shipping costs such a mystery?? ?? You didn't consider the cost of shipping they keys BUT CHARGED PEOPLE 10$ FOR TRAYS BEFORE EVEN FINDING OUT????
I'm going to ask the same thing as I did in the SmallFry thread where I got scammed and mkawa showed everyone he's a coward and not a man:
ARE THESE KEYS GOING TO BE SHIPPED BEFORE THE END OF 2016??????
If you say yes, and you should, I'll be back to ***** here in December when you guys have still failed to deliver, but until then **** this and buy from Massdrop
Ivan, CTRLALT, Mkawa, this new guy, they all ****ing suck at getting orders out and Geekhack is a safe harbour for scammers to continue doing this.

I'm fine waiting now as I've already waited this long. But my concern is I am hoping everyone gets what they wanted and nothing is missing or damaged. As I don't want to imagine how that would be handled.
Edit: just wanted to add that at the end of the day problems can arise. It seems like they've had personal problems and unexpected issues come up. Hopefully they will learn from it for the future. Thanks for even offering the group buy. As it is a wonderful set.

I remember thread starter said at the beginning of 9009. He(I guess) said he hates long term waiting and wants to change GH GB system.
It was totally awesome and moved my mind so I joined this.
To thread starter
I know you may faced unexpected matters running through this GB as we all do in our life.
You may be too busy or tired, but I suggest you to updates any progress even very tiny one.
Show us you are working on this one.

I don't get why so many is angry with his GB. I think the organisers have been updating all the time and made good progress seen to what time they have to dispose. I'm feeling very confident in the organisers and have no troubles waiting for a good nice set.

For a while there weren't any updates. This was supposed to ship out in...June? July? Only in the last month or so have there been updates, and now people are getting antsy again because shipping was so close but then the organizers realized the shipping would be more so they have to remove all the caps from the trays and put them in baggies, which we assumed would take a while.
I personally feel like this particular GB has been thrown in the dark, whereas the same keyset has been shipped to others from different sites. But that's just pure speculation based on some photos I've seen.
Also, when should we expect to get refunds for the trays since they won't be used? I still have yet to pay the other half, but at this point I'd prefer getting a refund for personal reasons.
And at least 7bit stays in constant contact throughout the process; he ships as soon as he gets the keys.

We have receive quite a lot of request regarding shipping address changes, enquiries on orders status/what have I ordered, and also refund on extra shipping charges. Please fill in the form so that I can centralize all the requests.
https://goo.gl/forms/RzekVqr1qdcbXRZQ2
In case if you don’t fall into any of the category above and have not joined my Cherry Logo GB before, please fill in the form as well because of the way Paypal works, we only have email address instead of phone number. Even though Pos Malaysia accepts shipping without phone number, we do however thinks that it is a safer way to tag the phone number to the parcel. As of now, we only have phone numbers from the previous Cherry Logo GB spreadsheet BUT we are not sure if those numbers are still in use or not.
Thanks for the help and support throughout this GB, this is our second GB (first full keyset GB, if it matters) and we are still in the learning process.
This GB has given us a very tough but good experience and we hope to improve from here on. Perhaps it is our mistake for trying too many new things into this GB and thus causing such a huge mess on top of the mess that is going to come along the way.
We got demotivated when we face with so many obstacles and there are days where we just want to
put the GB right at the back seat. We apologize that we couldn’t keep a clean record like the Cherry logo GB, in fact we created an even longer time frame as opposed to what our initial objective is, and that is fastest GB delivery record.
We failed and disappoint you guys in that aspect, but right now we are trying to wrap this up with limited manpower. Please bear with us for a little while longer, this is a beautiful set and we want to see to it that everyone got theirs.

My order was paid in full. I paid $170 shipped which is what I am asking for my spot.

Also thanks for those who have fill in the form, will reply to those who inquire for order status on tonight/this weekend.
For other countries order, I will start the shipping by next week, and hopefully I can ship this all out within one or two weeks.

I will be getting the retro classic beige set, but it missed a couple of keys.
I am an ISO user so the main thing i am looking for are the "#" and "|\" key that are not used on ANSI boards.
I am interested in one of the numpad enter keys as well - just for flavour, but this is not neccessary.
I have money or some GMK ESC keyshttps://i.imgur.com/BGUxYHJ.jpg (https://i.imgur.com/BGUxYHJ.jpg) totrade. I will also the the retro beige set so maybe there are some weird keys in there you need for your layout. :thumb:

Once these start rolling in, I would like to purchase/trade for a couple of keycaps in this set.

It does, but it doesn't have a # or |\ key. It has keys that fit in that slot, but they wouldn't match my UK layout, whereas the 9009 set does. It is only a minor annoyance, but it i can sort it then i will try!

I see, I guess you've already got spare ISO-UK replacement caps for number 2, 3 and tilde? I am now using an ANSI board with US-International keymap precisely because it's just more annoying to find caps that fit ISO-UK layout.
I managed to find a full set of OG doubleshots in ISO-UK a while ago, and those now live on my office board. My home boards will strictly be ANSI from now on, just easier that way :thumb:

Look into the email that you got from paypal with subject "Receipt for Your Payment to Tuhai & Co." and check near the bottom line the Invoice ID, that is a TGR-xxxxx number. That is the Order ID.

Yeah, I agree with that policy, sailor. However, I enjoy a lot to put together my very own sets taking advantage of some great opportunities that come occasionally from people selling old OG Sets at great prices. Investing hundreds in new sets take some of the magic out of the quest.

You should not be ashame to openly recognized that GMK Black on Beige sets are the endgame :p
I suggest you to PM the OP just in case some leftovers are available. Regarding your call, it would be better to open a WTB thread in the classifieds sub-forum; however, you should have enough posts to be able to open it.

My tracking just says it's not found. I assume other people who have received their packages have had this too? Anyone in Europe got theirs yet?
I just drop batch 4 yesterday at the pos offices, with the past experience, it might take few days for the tracking system to update. :thumb:
I have ship most of the orders as of yesterday, except for 1 which need a larger boxes, 3 which need address changes, and those who are yet to pay their remaining.

Hi, it seems I have mixed your orders with another person with same name. :eek:
I will try to send your orders together with remaining next week, sorry for this. :-[

Hoping that 1 needing a larger box is order 16799 or 16662, I neither changed my add nor pending payment since I haven't seen my Id in any of the batch.

Hey bro just a little insight here...USPS doesn't track from Malaysia so if that is what you are referring to need not worry, it will eventually get to ya! Well if you are not in America, then I am not sure what to tell you haha.

Here is our reply regarding this issues,
1st we extract TGR.my data ranging from March to April only cause this is our GB period and all orders should be there, where the max Order ID in it was #16850.
Then you mention #16864 here which make us curious and dig deeper, and found two orders was ordered on August.
At this point, we are not sure what the options we can offer as we have other plans for the extras. We will come back to you after we make our decisions.

My order is one of those two and I look forward to a resolution. Hope I will be able to get a set as I've paid already and have been eagerly waiting.

I ordered from your site which took my money and I have a receipt to prove it!!!!
I really don't understand :(
edit: I also paid extra for the trays via the Google form and *included my order number* with that form. I really feel I am part of the group buy.

This is really unfortunate. I'm hoping you end up getting a set.
I wonder though, how you managed to order in August? Considering that it closed a few months earlier and we were getting updates from GMK about the order and shipping in June. Did they really not close orders on the website?

I'm surprised too. I heard about it and went to the site and it was available to order. Wouldn't there be lots of orders from May, June, July if it closed in April? I dunno. We shall see what the keyboard gods decree...

If he ordered legitimately, and paid, and extras are available then he should get a set no doubt about it. I can't see a reason not to. Unless the plan was to mark up the extras for some profit, but if he still ordered legitimately it is not his fault the link wasn't removed from the website.
I've got no dog in this fight, but I agree as well. It would be one thing if that day, that week, that month even you contacted him back and said "Sorry, orders have been closed since April. The website accepting your order and payment was an error." and refunded him.
It's been enough time that any reasonable person would assume their order was accepted.

Hey kekkon, I have both my order. Saw a notice on my mailbox on package and that it was attempted 10 days ago. So you might be confusing my order with someone else.
Haven't checked the keys though. But anyway thanks for running the GB.

They can be pretty slow around this time of year, as package volume is high.
Basically, blame Christmas.
Any chance of a round 2? Just got back into keyboards and I missed it :( :(
I'd PM the OP to see if he has extras, as well as keep an eye on the classifieds.
Basically just typical GB stuff.
Just received mine today! I'm in the UK, and my order was on page 3 of the spreadsheet.

Yea, I usually just deal with a mis-legend for 1.25u Fn. Although the diamonds from wodan's GB (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=82845.0) would be good for this. I think there's a round 2 coming up for that.

Yes, there are some cancelled orders but not many and leftovers will go on sale after we ship out all GB orders this week.
There's a waiting list in our hand, and we will prioritize them over the others.
Note that there will be a price increment for these as we want to cover some of our expenses for this 9009, but rest assured it won't be $200 (

For those with missing 2V Enter, 7u Spacebars or kits missing, please fill in the form. (https://goo.gl/forms/DPqOlmtq2xggQlUJ2)
How do we join the waiting list? I've been asking about extras before you guys started shipping them out.
I would like very much to know this also!

Is there confirmation of Batch 5 shipping? I've unexpectedly had to move, so if mine has been sent I need to figure that out.
Shipped on 4th November.

We got some PM regarding leftovers, and here is our answer for them.
Yes, there are some cancelled orders but not many and leftovers will go on sale after we ship out all GB orders this week.
There's a waiting list in our hand, and we will prioritize them over the others.
Note that there will be a price increment for these as we want to cover some of our expenses for this 9009, but rest assured it won't be $200 (Maybe $199.99). :p

A big shout out to kekkon for taking the baton from me when my hands are full. Without him, we would probably be in a state much worse than this. He spend a lot of effort and time doing the sorting by himself when the rest of us couldn't due to various reasons. In the end, we are all very happy to see the new owners of the 9009 set proudly posting their photos!
As promised, we now will go to the leftover phase. There isn't much left, which we felt both thankful and regretful at the same time. Thankful because we manage to ship out *all* our sets, regretful because we don't have enough for everyone. With that being said, we have compiled a waiting list based on the timestamp of PMs received, and as well as posts on the thread. This may not be the best way, but it is what we decided upon.
The first link contains a list of names in order of priority to order the set.
Sheet 1 - Name list
Sheet 2 - List of extras
Link 1 - List of names and extras (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nnBwX_yBPzLt2b5xnOK2rQuTWOYu5zPxFsOXiTXKMKE)
The second link is the Google form to submit your order. Don't have to wonder how many sets are left, just submit what you wanted to order and we will send out invoice accordingly.
Link 2 - Order Form (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfsRLapHbS805L5K51q0yIcaGzRuTF0E5DiCulFCSmFhJNOEA/viewform)
CLOSING DATE: 2 Dec 2016

ah, 16th on list, only 5 base sets. Well that stinks :(

thank you and sorry about this, really wish we have more sets to sell. :(

yes, it is as duynguyenle says, the name list there is based on priority from the top. sorry for not making it clearer.
those whose name not in the list can still place your order. we will send out invoice from orders of those in the list first, top to down. after that if there's still enough kits, we'll distribute them to the orders not in the name list. hope this clears up the confusion. :)
Justin.
Post by: justnits on Mon, 28 November 2016, 20:07:15
we have to be fair to those in the waiting list, which means we will not entertain any request of transferring priority rights.
if those in the priority list orders something, we will invoice that person and ship to that person only. if we noticed the name of the person or the address is different or the paypal is different, we'll cancel your order.
we all know this is a nice set, and a lot of people wanted to get their hands on it. some asked as early as after the groupbuy ends. assuming if they are in the 6th position of the list, and one person from the first 5 didn't order the full set, it means #6 got the chance to get his/her full set. but what if someone from waaay down below in the list asked the person from the first 5 who didn't order to order for him/her, then in this sense, #6 was robbed of his/her full set. how would you feel if you are #6? we don't want that to happen, and hence we will try our best to make this a fair game to everyone.
we hope that everyone understands this and we hope that everyone will work together to keep this community a clean and faithful community of keyboard enthusiasts.
Justin.

In regards to the extras:
We will be compiling the orders today, expect to receive invoices soon. Updates on the remaining orders will go up after we done compiling the orders, so everyone knows if they got it or not. Again, thank you all for your love and support in this groupbuy! Our biggest regret is not having enough to go for everyone who's interested. :(

If you got enough entries, then do round 2 directly. I think more people (than you can expect) will jump into it, because there are photos available. That an awesome set! I was on the fence to join, but didn't. Regrets!

If the round 2 will be a lot shorter in the shipping phase, I'm down. I still think this is the best Classic Beige set out there, so my chances of getting one in another round would be better than hunting down a set second-hand.I am definitely down for a Round 2 with a faster turnaround. So sad that I missed out on this.

Yeah like 6 months too late for the main group buy and a few weeks too late for registering on the Extras list. You best wait for round 2 or if you're impatient, try and get a set on the aftermarket.

We want to ship these leftover kits out in 1 batch, but we are still waiting for some people to paid the invoices and I was out for holiday last week, so the shipping has not yet begun.
From now on, we will set the due date to 2 days, if you are not interested please cancel the invoice and we will sent invoice to the next person in list.
Also, a good and bad news. I have manage to get a few more extra sets from China GB, but these kits are missing the extra 2V Enter(Numpad enter, 2B(Green) and U9 (Grey)). I will put these extras onto the Google Sheets with some discounts, invoices will be sent according to the waiting list, if you are interested, you can pay for it.
On another note, I have collect another 3 return parcels from pos offices. After discussions, we will initiate refund to these orders and make these as extra for sales.
I plan to ship the first batch by tomorrow.

Thanks for the response, justnits. With the whole Ivan debacle a year ago, people still get jumpy when there's little to no communication. I still wanted the set (and still do), so I tried to hang on as long as I could but impatience got the better of me.

Are those 2u caps POS caps that fit onto two stems?
One with ANSI enter may work for me.

Edit: I didn't get the Escape pack and red spacebars that I paid for and both the Grey and Green Numberpad Enter keycaps are missing. Who do I need to contact to resolve this? ):

Lucky you! I think ours got shipped out around the same time but my shipping status hasn't updated since it left Malaysia. :(. Hope it's not lost.

Hey! Don't fear, the tracking doesn't really tend to update often. Mine was stuck at customs for almost half a month and it randomly got here two days ago. (Mind you, I live in the States).
When you get yours, just make sure you check and make sure everything is there.
The set is beautiful, unfortunely I'm missing the below:
-Escape Pack
-Numberpad Green Enter
-Numberpad Grey/Beige Enter
-Pink 6.25u and 7u Spacebar
Still waiting for a reply concerning my missing items but I'm keeping my fingers crossed. :(

****, I never took everything out of their bags to make sure I have everything - I will have to double check tonight when I get home. I know for fact I have the alphas, spacebars, and esc packages.
Sounds good! I completely forgot to have you check everything before selling to me.
Danke!

I don't mean to rant, but this has been quite a bad experience for me.
I'm missing a bunch of keycaps too. Waited 12 days to see if I could get replacements, and am now being told to ship my order to a different address (Not his PayPal address), at my own cost due to Kekkon's error. I really don't think that's fair since I'm not at fault here, and I rather not to send it to a different address than his PayPal one since he could keep my money that way. It's really a bummer how messy this has become.

A bunch? It is only 1 escape packs and 2 Numpad enter which cost like 10$?
If I were to keep your money and run away, I would have run away since the beginning and not this $10 worth of key caps.
I also promised that I will replace them at no cost, and told you I would send them as soon as possible when I get time, which unfortunately I can't due to Lunar New Year.
So stop ranting like a mad dog and bark every where, I have been extremely patient when dealing with 9009 cause I know it was our mistake for it to take so long but I still want to get things deliver to the buyer, though is slow.
I believe GB is based on mutual trust between GB Organizers and buyer, if you don't have the faith and trust, please just return the item to my the address I give you(which is a friend of mine in the U.S, to save time and shipping cost for both of us), and we shall refund you for the amount you have paid for 9009 and shipping cost.
And did I say in the PM that I won't pay for the return shipping, ha?

Apologies if I made it seem like a ton were missing, I just considered the whole escape pack and 2x enters as important parts of my order (6? missing all together). I can see how that could be misinterpreted though, so I'm sorry about that.
I don't mean to be rude, but your lack of transparency/communication is what caused me to be a bit wary. When I messaged you, you kind of just brushed it off for a few days at a time. Explaining that Lunar New Year may cause a delay in updates/shipment would have been great too, as I didn't know Malaysia celebrated that. I haven't been ranting like a "mad dog" either, you're greatly exaggerating. I did however ask you for updates on your other thread. In the message you sent me, you didn't specify that you'd pay for return shipping at all, the way you worded it didn't specify that.
Edit: I'm willing to wait for the missing keycaps, it just would've been nice if you were a bit more transparent from the start. I can understand how life gets in the way of things. It's a different story when there's not much communication between two people, however.

I understand extras would cost more but $50 is too much - with pp fees and shipping I'm looking at $232, which is more than people ask on mechmarket. Going to wait for round 2.

Hi,sorry for missing this. For leftovers, the $185 is actually a bundle of Base, L9 And U9 spacebars.
I am sorry for the late shipping this time for those who have paid earlier, I want to ship them out on the weekend but then when I am there, I only realise the pos office is close because it is the 1st week of March.
I will try to get them out by today.

What's so appealing about this set? You can easily get the same colour way by getting a vintage beige set + jchan's muted add-ons.
While I agree with you, I think people like this set for multiple reasons:
(1) muted colors are unique, but
(2) they also come//are inspired from the classic Cherry G80-9009

Sorry I don't get what you're saying. What I was trying to say is that jchan's muted add-on kit have the exact same colours as the vintage G80-9009.
And icon mods.
Yeah that makes sense. I wish people could see the value of moogle kits, and make more of those. A moogle kit is beautiful because it's highly adaptable and is being made out of necessity. There are valid reasons to keep them. New keysets nowadays on the other hand feel redundant, and even wasteful. I mean just think of the amount of keysets currently sitting in ziplock bags and left unused...

- Alt Gr
I actually was in the original GB because I loved it the moment it was revealed, but bailed out before they shipped. Many, many regrets.

To me, 9009 is the perfect Classic Beige set because:
- icon mods
- side-printed num pad legends
- barred F&J/5
- multi-layout support in the base kit alone
- full-touch Control
- Alt Gr
I actually was in the original GB because I loved it the moment it was revealed, but bailed out before they shipped. Many, many regrets.
I have a similar experience, bailing out once the GB actually started and it's mainly due to the price. Currently I've fulfilled my needs with a set of standard vintage ones plus the HADapter mod kit, and it has full icons mods. jchan's muted add-ons will get me closer to the 9009 aesthetic, but again due to the price I bailed out. ;D
Do you actually use Alt Gr? I thought it's more of an European thing. Also what do you mean by full-touch Control?

Totes saw that, and if it's ePBT it'll be far better in feel than GMK (ePBT is my favorite), but one of the reasons I love 9009 is the icon-only mods.

Jchan said it isn't ePBT unfortunately. It also sucks that the colors are so off GMK 9009.

Someone on slack mentioned to me that the maker is the dye subbed for epbt, but I personally don't know.
Enjoypbt is more of a brand in this sense then.
Sorry the colors don't 100% match though!

Hi, guys!
Anyone with a base kit that might sell to me?
Not sure if we connected before but I still have a set I'm looking to sell. I'm missing 2 numpad enter keys and a ctrl key that's not in the base set.

Yeah, Muted isn't really beige but more white/grey and the Oco Beige set will be only be sold without a GB, so probably for $180, which means I for one won't buy it.I have some plan for 9009R2 at January, but since then there are GMK Muted, Sherryton/Originative also bringing back GMK Classic beige to stock.

I'd bear with you any time. Nothing personal against other GB leaders, but Sherry in particular seems particularly overpriced, which may be understandable as an stock item, but nor for group buys' ones.

Yes, I didn't even think about that, it's so much more convenient to just pay taxes at checkout and get it delivered to the door without the possibility that it ends up in customs where you have to wait longer and pick it up yourself.

I also think iso users would be HAPPY paying extra for a ISO kit with red and green iso enter. The r/g colors fit so beautiful to beige.
The prices in eu wont actually be much more expensive. mykeyboard ran solarized dark on basically 1-1 euro convention. Believe it was 130 or so euro.

The demand is definitely there and I'd pay a lot of money to get a set, but with all those bots around, it's just so hard to get to talk with the seller. There was someone selling his set on mechmarket today and I contacted him like 5-10min after he had posted it and I was already too late.

FWIW those two sets didn't include the spacebar (or esc but less exciting imo) packs, so while the the price was still more reasonable than a few other recent sales they're not 100% equivalent.

9009 was a Cherry colourway, justnits did not need anyone's permission to run it (and there have been many OG beige GBs before, none of which required any permissions of any sorts).

If people are interested, I'm looking into rerunning GMK 9009. I've contacted justnits, but I haven't gotten a response yet. I'd like to proceed with a response from him first. If possible, I would like to run it with an EU proxy, and with proper kits to accommodate ISO. If I get this in motion, I'll probably post an IC on reddit before posting an IC on geekhack, just because I am more familiar with it.

My thoughts exactly. I *feel* that if you want to re-run this set, you should be able to. I am only aware of permission being needed only in original colorways(?). Correct me if I'm wrong anybody.

Post by: TerryMathews on Tue, 29 August 2017, 18:05:25
Technically, nobody needs permission to do anything. We settled the "do you need legal permission to run a colorway?" debate long ago.
The answer is "No, but you might look like a ****."
Right, but this is worse: we're discussing whether permission is needed to rerun a set that is "stolen" if you believe colorways are IP.
I'm certain no one got permission to rerun from Dolch, SKIDATA, Reuters, Honeywell, or Data General. And rightly so, because colorways aren't IP.

I think that if a set is "stolen", with an extremely heavy emphasis on the quotations... it wouldn't be worse, it'd probably be even easier tbh.
Imagine asking a certain rip-off artisan maker if we could rip off his rip-offs lmao.
In any case.. i'd say, as long as you have the knowledge of how to run a GB and the necessary resources to do so... go for it. At this point, people just desperately want the 9009
