[GB] KKINGKKONG 660 Keyboard | closed

[noorejji]

Oh, my bad. I just assumed since the plate supports split left shift, that the PCB would as well. That's really strange to me. Personally, when using ISO, I like to bind '<' to 'AltGr+,', and '>' to 'AltGr+.', and keep the big left shift.

[pinhead22]

Is it +$35 for top and +$35 for bottom ceratoke beige? meaning if i wanted a full beige keyboard, it would be an extra $70? or just $35? also, what kind of shipping expenses should we expect (estimate)?

I'm really excited for this GB but I wanna make sure I know what to pick on the google form!

[marshskitow]

I was still really interested but i realized that there is no ISO on this keyboard (left shift)

There is. It’s universal.

What do you mean ? So i can solder a small left shift key and my <> key instead ? Why the layout don't show this option then ?

Oh ok now i see it. Missed it because it was on the right of the picture. Sorry.

And of course i assign Fn key to Menu key on the layout picture right ?

I found the link to their Discord, where they have posted an image of the PCB, and it does not have support ISO left shift (with <> next to it as I need aswell). Check for yourself: https://discord.gg/dRQcZZ9

I really want this, but the lack of ISO shift is kind of a dealbreaker for me...

Oh i was right without knowing ahaah. It's such a shame for only one key that i don't really use....

Thanks, that’s actually a good idea, I think you convinced me. I don’t actually use the <>-key so much that it would be too bad to have them on some macro. I guess I just have to decide what color to get now.

I actually did top and bottom cerakote beige and I paid USD 70 extra. Shipping charge to MO, USA came out to USD 40 for me!

[Poesjuh]

Shipping was $40 for me as well, to EU that is.

[Aaron_92]

Congratulations.
Thinking about getting one for my young brother as a birthday gift, is there a rose gold style? and btw, how long does it usually take to be shipped to US？

[chanmin kang]

We currently have a finished brass plate.

This is the picture, and there is also a image with a supported layout.
The two are not completely matched.
We hope to be a reference when choosing.

[dbjowett]

Is there any way to check if we get our anodized board shipped July 1st?
I may switch to cerakote if it will ship in the later batch.

He would've reached out to you by now if you were in the first 20 to be shipped early.

[X_point]

2 questions

Anyone know what is the estimate shipping to US?
What color would best go with JTK Zen/ePBT Ivory?

TIA

In the google form I believe it said around September. And I'd say any of the neutral colors would look good with those sets (silver, gray, black, or cerakote white).

[h40]

FWIW I am in US and received a notification stating they would ship in July

[Corvarea]

is there a way to change form anodizing to cerakote ?

[chanmin kang]

Please modify the order form as you like and send your existing invoice number (660_0000) to kkingkkongworks@gmail.com.

[Mcnos]

Do we have a sample/example of the Rose Gold anodizing? (outside of the render)

[X_point]

Any one know how long between submitting the order form and getting an invoice? I submitted one more than 24hrs ago - still haven't received anything.

[frostfiree]

As long as you submitted the form before the GB close, you should be okay. It takes some time for the invoice to be written up, especially since time zones may vary.

[X_point]

Thank you  very excited about this..

[Kinesiologist]

can you please confirm the following:

- keycap units for the right shift
- keycap units for the bottom row
- keycap profile for the 2 keys grouped on the right ?

[frostfiree]

can you please confirm the following:

- keycap units for the right shift
- keycap units for the bottom row
- keycap profile for the 2 keys grouped on the right ?

Right shift is 2.25u, same as left shift.
Bottom row looks like 1.25, 1, 1.25, 6.25, 1.25, 1.25, 1.25, 1, 1, 1.
Top right cluster is 1 for each.

Someone correct me if I am wrong.

[Poesjuh]

Correct.
Alternative bottom row, with the blockers;
1.5 - 1.5 - 7 - 1.5 - 1.5 - 1 - 1 - 1

If you recently ordered and have not received an invoice, it will be sent out sequentially one hour later.

[Chumbee]

Is there a date or general time period for when we can expect to see shipping to take place? Excited to build it already

[musicgecko]

Are the blockers removable? Not sure if was something that we selected on the order form, but I might've missed it.

Blockers are not removable, it was an option to go with WKL blockers or not.

Were confirmation emails for orders sent out already?

Beyond anything PayPal related, there was also a email sent out on the 18th (I assume this was sent to anyone that ordered).

[nikron]

I don't think I got an email like that.

[Mcnos]

Neither did I

[Tree_]

From the email I got on the 18th:

Thank you for ordering KKINGKONG660

※ If you think you have nothing to do with this email, please let me know!

Hello. Thank you for purchasing the KKINGKKONG660 keyboard.

GB order period is over.

We are organizing data to request the factory to make a keyboard.

A lot of people have ordered it. So it's going to take some time.

As soon as the data is organized, an email will be sent to confirm the options you ordered.

From tomorrow, order changes, refunds, etc. are all impossible.

All changes will be closed completely. (Excluding recipient address)

Be sure to know the above! Coming soon with new news! 

[dbjowett]

I got this email too. Mine is also in the batch being shipped July 1st (if that matters)

[darkcl]

Neither did I

May need to check trash mail, gmail is tagging the email as trash

[h40]

I got the following email, as part of the group of July shipment. Looks like not everything will ship on July 1st, just starting on the 1st.

Hi. This is Chan-min Kang. Your ordered 660 keyboard will ship in July.

Sorry for the late mail. We received a lot of orders, and it took time to sort out 20 people who met the requirements.

We will start the shipping process from July 1st after we prepare.

Unfortunately, we will not be able to ship all 20 items at once on July 1st.

It still takes a lot of time to prepare for delivery due to covid-19.

Documents and invoices are required for delivery.
When we shipped a product a few days ago, it took a lot of time due to various documents and regulations. We'll try to prepare this in advance.
So, we hope that you understand that even if there is a slight delay in shipping.

Finally, please modify the order form accordingly. We are not responsible if you receive a different color/product due to different shipping addresses or orders

If, at the time of receiving this email,  you want to give up your right to receive it quickly, or if you think I have received this email even if I do not meet the conditions, please reply.

Regard.

[musicgecko]

Be patient bro, you're lucky to be in the first batch. It is only 4 days into July. As he stated, he'll give you an update as it comes.

I mean, I'd rather be over-updated then not?

Chanmin said early bird boards would go out July 1st and there hasn't been confirmation of that happening despite seeing finished cases, PCB's and plates in May based on the IC thread. The board was also sold on their website to Korean buyers before the GH GB (https://kkkk.works/gb/?board_name=commerce_product&order_by=fn_product_rank1&order_type=desc&vid=4) and gave a delivery time of 2-3 days from purchase - Do we know if anyone in KR has received a board?

Apologise if asking for consistent updates is a bit much; I get the whole GB process, caveat emptor and all that - But after going in on the Owl660 two years ago I'm just not keen on getting scammed again for another 660 layout board from a relatively new maker,   

[frostfiree]

No, I understand, but it has only been a few days. But I think we just need to consider we are in different time zones and often designers/GB runners do have a full time occupation outside of keyboards. This may or may not be the case here, but let's hope an update comes soon.

[Mcnos]

Oof, a Owl660 victim

Glad I didn't hop on that train

[dbjowett]

I am in Korea and haven't received any email or anything either.
