Wow, I got mine today!

Karura · « **Reply #101 on:** Mon, 22 June 2015, 17:33:27 »

Drats! I haven't been 100% paying attention to this thread and realized that people were selling their plates!

If anyone is letting go of a round 1 plate, I'd be more than happy to take it off your hands, PM me

nubbinator · « **Reply #102 on:** Mon, 22 June 2015, 17:39:00 »

I still have a few outstanding invoices and one person who has not responded as to whether they're US or international. If there are any left over, I'll PM you. Shipping to Canada should be in the $10-15 range via First Class International.

As for the outstanding invoices, I plan on offering the orders up for others to claim if they're not paid by this coming Friday (June 26).

Pyrelink · « **Reply #103 on:** Mon, 22 June 2015, 17:40:31 »

I would also like a PM if there happen to be any unclaimed or unwanted R1 plates!

cheddarbek · « **Reply #104 on:** Mon, 22 June 2015, 17:41:18 »

Same interest here. PM me please if any are left up for grabs on/after Friday.

Watching this thread closely then.

That sounds great; thank you!

I should also say that I bought two for some reason. I only want one now. I'd sell my extra one at cost + shipping. Please PM me if interested.

You bought two because Alps is life.

ninjadoc · « **Reply #110 on:** Mon, 22 June 2015, 21:50:06 »

If there are any left I will be happy to buy one, two if Cpt has already sold his extra

I forgot to add a "thank you" to nubbinator running this even if I screwed up and didn't get to participate.

This can only lead to regret dear sir.

CPTBadAss · « **Reply #112 on:** Mon, 22 June 2015, 21:59:01 »

Regret? Nah. I think I'm set. Happy to support the buy and share the love. I can't hoard all the Alps goodies.

hoarding? you mean people hoard stuff?? Wow, I never would have guessed. No comments about my basement, now - that would be rude!

FYI the plate doesn't seem to be compatible with the Pure Limited Aluminum Case. It's a tiny tad too big

Oh no, that is really bad news! I wonder if it'll fit in the Pok3r case, since they're similar in design?

That's strange...in which dimension? I'm pretty sure I used my other existing 60% plate drawings as a template.

badboybry9000 · « **Reply #117 on:** Mon, 22 June 2015, 23:54:59 »

I received mine today. It fits perfectly into the TEX aluminum case.

This is an issue I've had before with trying to fit a Poker II into a Pure case as well, the issue is in the R1-R5 Dimension. It should fit in most other 60% cases though.

Well, stainless is pretty forgiving, and there should be enough material there if you want to have a go at it with a grinder. You can probably remove enough material to make it fit. I have one of those cases, but to be honest, I've never tried fitment with one of my plate designs before.

njbair · « **Reply #121 on:** Tue, 23 June 2015, 17:43:48 »

Got mine the other day. Looks great! I haven't tried it in a case yet, but holding it up to my TEX case it appears that it will fit just fine.

That Pure case must be really small.

nubbinator · « **Reply #122 on:** Thu, 02 July 2015, 12:33:22 »

Still have several outstanding. First couple of people who respond to this post requesting a plate will be invoiced tonight and it will be dropped off next weekend (sooner if I can find the time during my lunch). I believe I have 6 plates available and you can ask for up to two plates.

ninjadoc · « **Reply #123 on:** Thu, 02 July 2015, 13:18:17 »

PM'ed. Will take 2 if available.

Thanks for running this GB

I heard mention that there would be an SGI plate buy sometime soon and that JDCarpe might be designing it. I don't want to miss out! Where will it be announced?

CPTBadAss · « **Reply #126 on:** Thu, 02 July 2015, 14:59:46 »

Just FYI, the round 1 plates currently don't fit into Pure CNC cases. Confirmed what someone else said earlier.

+1 I thought he said it would be a At101 plate, but I would be down for either.

Sorry I think he did say at101 but the layout is identical to the sgi I believe

nubbinator · « **Reply #129 on:** Thu, 02 July 2015, 22:45:21 »

Alright, sent two invoices and waiting on info for another. It looks like I have one more plate available after that.

Received my plate yesterday care of Cpt Badass.

This is a great looking plate. The finish is awesome. Can't wait to begin assembly next week.

Yep, Imgur title says Alps 60% AEKII and Granite Pure. Threw me off, too, the first time I saw it.

I imagine, Oneday I might type on this plate like a buddhist monk hitting a wooden bell to get an enlightenment to nirvana.

No, but this IC may interest you. Another Alps 60% buy is in the works, and there's a possibility that we may have a choice between AEKII and Dell AT layout plates.
