ESC PROTOTYPE
The Esc prototype turned out really well. A tad too small is all. cycloverid has made some adjustments so the final version should look even better than this.

BUY DESCRIPTION
This group buy has two components: a red Escape key and an RGBY modifier kit. You can buy one, or the other, or both. Both will have custom legends designed to match Cherry Corp. doubleshot sets like the one shown here.
These will be Cherry-MX-compatible keys sized to fit modern standard-layout keyboards like the Filco, the Leopold, the Poker, Das Keyboard, Ducky, Rosewill, etc. The red Escape key should end up looking a lot like the much-coveted vintage Cherry version:

The RGBY kit will include the standard modifiers: Control, Alt, Shift, and Super (aka the Windows key) in SP color codes RA, VCM, BDH, and YY, respectively. Control, Alt, and Shift will use cycloverid's moogle kit legends, while the Super key will have the diamond legend from the Round 1 doubleshot set.
[ Attachment Invalid Or Does Not Exist ] 31714[/ATTACH] [ Attachment Invalid Or Does Not Exist ] 31715[/ATTACH] [ Attachment Invalid Or Does Not Exist ] 31716[/ATTACH]
The RGBY kit is available in both ANSI and ISO variants. The left-hand Shift key on ANSI keyboards is 2.25x, while ISO keyboards have a shorter 1.25x left Shift. The ISO Shifts will just have the arrow legend, without the "Shift" text:

Each RGBY kit contains the following keys:
2 x 1.25x red Control[/COLOR]
2 x 1.25x blue Alt[/COLOR]
2 x 1.25x yellow Super[/COLOR]
1 x 2.75x green right Shift[/COLOR]
1 x green left Shift[/COLOR], either ISO (1.25x) or ANSI (2.25x)
SHIPPING
There are two shipping options: standard and priority.
Standard shipping means your keys will ship without a tracking number in a small bubble mailer. One mailer will fit two or three RGBY kits or an equivalent number of red Escapes.
Priority shipping means you get a tracking number and a small cardboard box. The boxes will fit quite a bit more than the mailers.
Standard shipping: $3 to US/Canada, $6 international
Priority shipping: $6 to US/Canada, $15 international
Special arrangements can be made for large orders. If you're local to the San Francisco Bay Area, we can probably work out an in-person pickup. I work in Emeryville, so if you have to take BART or cross the Bay to get to me, it's probably cheaper to go with standard shipping. :)

ORDERING
You can order by PMing me on geekhack or Deskthority (I'm also hashbaz there), posting in this thread, or emailing me at b a c o n b i t s 2 3 [at] g m a i l . c o m. You don't need a geekhack account to buy.
However you order, you must include your forum username (if applicable), country, desired keys and quantities, and desired shipping method. Also include your mailing address, either in your order message or a separate PM/email. I won't officially record your order until I have your mailing address.
To help disambiguate orders, please use the following codes:
REDESC
RGBY-ISO
RGBY-ANSI
You can also order extra left Shifts of either flavor:
SHIFT-ISO
SHIFT-ANSI
Example order:

PAYMENT
Once the order-taking phase is over (cutoff is 25 November), I will start pestering everyone to pay up. Once all payments have been submitted to me via Paypal, I will place the order with SP. My Paypal email is b a c o n b i t s 2 3 [at] g m a i l . c o m.
Paypal fees are baked into the key prices, so there's no need to send your payment as a gift or to add n%.

Thanks to aggiejy for general advice and inspiration, and to cycloverid for creating the custom legends!
hashbaz:
Ok, here's the list I have been keeping from the interest check. Undoubtedly there are errors here. Please correct via post or PM, or just repeat/change your order entirely. And don't forget to send me your mailing address via PM, and to specify a shipping preference.
I filled in a lot of ANSI/ISO based on country of origin, since many of you didn't specify. Please double-check and correct as necessary.
Sorry for the weird formatting and "AN SI" stuff. vBulletin, y u no display what I type?
edit: I've crossed out the preorders that have converted to real orders.
