Orion V2 Kustom TKL Group Buy

[ctrlX]

OK, this might be a really silly question. I thought the Orion V2 would come with an ISO option, or was it just a dream? Saw some nice pictures of the ISO plate and/or PCB.

ISO is supported for MX PCB

Wicked! Order placed. All black alu casing with steel plate (might change this, have to sleep on it).

There won't be any blockers, but I'm not sure if they have enough stabilizers.  I will get back to you on this.

Depending on the extra orders, if less than 30, then it will be around a month longer.

Not sure on the LED dimming question..anyone with Octagon want to input on this?

Just a quick question, after the first 30 orders are fulfilled. Do we wait for the "second round"? Or do we just put in the order now?

It is just that it will be ready to ship after a month or so after the 1st batch is ready to ship.  So you can order now and will be invoiced together.

so the rest of the orders after the 30th will be shipped later? that's how i interpret it 

[yicaoyimu]

Order submitted!

To simply put it, yes.

I will start invoicing once I know the weight of each item. Probably on Monday.

[ImDaBaron]

I thought about it but looks like there's already a bunch of people in line ready to get in the top 30.

[Fnzzy]

Invoicing next week? Wow this goes by pretty fast. Does that mean we will have our keyboards pretty soon?

THE WAITING GAME MIGHT NOT BE THAT LONG AFTER ALL BOYS!

[elton5354]

They have already been preproducing for about a month now, so maybe in 2 months they will be ready.

[Fnzzy]

That's TWO months faster than I expected.

There are always some delays, so I should've been more conservative and say 2-3 months

What material is the ALPS plate going to be in?
Already filled out the form, but I assume there is only one choice.

Only in stainless steel

[PunksDead]

looks like i missed the initial 30, dang! but worth the wait. In for a winkeyless blue silver/alum plate/mx. yummy

Nice! Situation berry najs.
I ordered just the plastic plate since I don't really care about MX on this board. Although I guess it wouldn't change the price I have to pay.

Also, since you live really close is it possible to get you to proxy my order?
I would like to save money wherever possible.

I have no problem. Are you picking up or do you want me to ship it to London?

It's a 2 hours drive to Toronto..

I'll probably just get it shipped here if it saves me money.
I don't have much reason to go to Toronto. I wouldn't count on finding a good opportunity for local pickup.

[effectiveduck]

Is there any way to have it assembled prior to shipping?

[monotagary]

Is there any way to have it assembled prior to shipping?

Not unless you send it to someone who is willing to assemble it for you. There are no assembly services available for this GB.

[FrostyToast]

You could probably have it shipped to GON. Shipping wouldn't be that bad since it would be domestically sent within Korea.

I'm only guesstimating but I checked the shipping cost would be about $14 regular parcel.

Sorry, no assembly, but like others have said you could try sending it to GON.  Give him a message first.

Nice. Just toss me an invoice for whatever you think the added cost will be for your package and whatever it will cost to have it sent here.

TIL: There's a London in Canada.  Sorry for the side track. Hah

Order submitted!

[Dreamre]

Elton, if I come pick up the KB at your house...would I still have to pay for shipping? ...

[KatzenKinder]

Is there any idea about how much more time would be needed for the extra orders? I'm considering going in on this, just want to be kind of informed about when the +30 orders might ship out.

[elton5354]

Elton, if I come pick up the KB at your house...would I still have to pay for shipping? ...

If FrostyToast is going to be joining my order as well, the shipping cost will increase about 33%.  We will have to split the shipping in thirds .  The only thing is free (or not with gas or if you're taking the bus) is picking up 

Is there any idea about how much more time would be needed for the extra orders? I'm considering going in on this, just want to be kind of informed about when the +30 orders might ship out.

It will be about a month extra.  Maybe I need to stop taking orders at 60 sets....

Order submitted!

What happened to the group buy in China?

[cmadrid]

Hmmm, need to sell a kidney or something

Do we need to add any of the case LED's (under the pcb and the dots beside esc and above the arrow keys)? Or are they pre soldered? And if so do we get to choose the colours or are they rgb? The reason i ask is I think the I'd only need switches and stabs from GON, correct?

[orcinus]

Presoldered SMDs.
You only need the top LEDs, AFAIK.

Indicator LEDs (top left and above arrow keys) and switch LEDs are needed if you want them. The SMD RGB LEDs are presolder onthe underside of the PCB

Oh you just made it.  Orders are closed for now.

You can still add in your order, but I won't add you to my official list and the public sheet. I'll put you in if there are unpaid orders.

[FrostyToast]

This is insane.
A GB that closed within the day?

[missalaire]

This is insane.

A testament to the fact that mechanical keyboards are a rapidly growing hobby

Doesn't hurt that there's cheaper options too.

Yeah, I think the cheaper options attracted a lot of would be buyers.

[HelixDan]
