Title: Too damn much
Post by: pixelpusher on Thu, 12 October 2017, 18:09:00
If you have an idea for a cool keycap set, can you just wait a damn month or two (or four)?  Way too much dropping or about to drop at the moment.


Same goes for boards.

The solution is to have a more discerning taste filter. It's easy to save money when 99% of what's proposed is godawful.

I agree with you that there are some questionable choices out there recently .  But even after calm depths, Lime, and 9009, I’m hurting pretty bad for 1 month.  And I have to support Royal Alpha because it’s green :).  And then I think, we’ll damn, maybe I need a 40% board for overwatch so i should get the 40s 9009 kit... and I was totally going to buy some XDA extras (guess jchan MIA is good news on that front)

And then red honey shows up.  And I think, “oh that’s easy That one isn’t for me”  But maybe it’s awesome? 
Then I see mitosis, and I’m always a sucker for dark DSA sets.  And I already own pulse, but maybe I need it in DSA. 

And ****! I’ve been trying to find dasher on r/mm.  I have to have it, it’s too beautiful.

 I always feel like there is a sleeper around the corner.  Aaaah!  The sleeper must awaken! Noooo.  Now where was that spice set?

I’ll shut up now.  Just overwhelmed with options and lack of funds.  I should just be happy with what I have... except I need that rubber dome still.  F%@*!

Only getting the eclipse and 9009. For me it's not so much about being overwhelmed with stuff i want to buy, but rather having 4 ran simultaneous will hurt MOQ for all. One GMK at a time is ideal, two is fine.
