The quantity is referring to the total purchased, not how much each person buys. So if 10 of buy a case, the price is then lowered for all of us.

Prelim · « **Reply #5 on:** Mon, 16 May 2016, 18:21:51 »

a massdrop on this would be very advantage as you could go even lower than $85 and sell much more cases. did you consider that?

shipping kills it a bit for me, otherwise I would be interested

Im in asking as we get enough people! 70 75 is more appealing than 100 also does this come with a plate or no? Or is it compatible with a plate?

Quick clarification (because I see this all the time): Satan (maker of the Taobao Satan GH60) obtained permission to use the design files of the maker of the GH60, and improved upon it in multiple reiterations. It's actually better than the original, with the major kicker being not needing a breakout board for enabling in-switch LEDs.

I do like the lighting capabilities of the Satan (I have 3) but on one the USB connector came off and took the solder pads with it, another had some diodes come off with their pads. These weren't too hard to fix with some bodge wires and components. So I would say they have great features but the quality is lacking....my third one has no problems (yet). Also the GH60 files are open source so anyone can modify and have some printed/assembled if they want to.

Where are you getting that $60 price from?

From thin air of course

I asked the OP about a 2nd GB around summer time last year, and he said it has been of a really low priority project for him.

The guess is actually kind of to the point $30-60 is around the cost of producing a CNC acrylic unit like this.

In between, Sentraq ran a group buy of another high-profile acrylic case at $90:

But in my opinion, Sentraq's design above with so many angled corners is not as cool as the case of this post - which makes the keyboard look exactly like a massive block of ice.

I‘d like to see a rerun of this case as it‘d probably match nicely with Laser.

I am in conversation with a company for a case like this:

Is there any legal way to avoid EU taxes for, lets say, >10 cases ?

I would buy one of those if it shipped from the EU,
