Nice. I've been wanting to see certificates of authenticity due to shadiness, but this really steps it up a notch.
Next up, Brokémon cards.
Sorry. Maybe I don't understand. Does it cost 5 Bro Points to redeem the serial? Or you receive 5 Bro Points?

So when you receive your new cap, it has 5 bro points attached to it. You can then redeem the points towards products. Those points are attached to your CTRL ALT account, so you will see a 'current points' indicator in your account info.

we are also working on a system where these points can be transferred if you trade the cap, they will only be transferable however with the cap, and not on there own
3. You can choose to not redeem the points if you plan to trade the cap.
Neat!
Looking for clarification on this point:Quote3. You can choose to not redeem the points if you plan to trade the cap.
In other words, you can decide to give the receiver of your cap the 5 bro points attached to this? Is there any real reason to do this aside from attaching a 5-point incentive to your trade fodder? EDIT: answered above... I think?
Also, will this be visible through transparent caps, assuming those are ever going to be made again?
Awesome ALTHOUGH What does it look like on a Trans coloured keycap? as having a large metallic sticker on something clear might be a turn off :X
All those Bro Point I've missed out on already! :|
BTW, I am on IRC and you can put your 'big brother' worries to rest.
We aren't tracking anyone, it's simply a way to ensure it's original source is credible. You are free to trade it outside of the system, and to whomever you wish.
Your info is already there when you purchase anything from CTRL ALT. It's not like we are taking any more information. It just shows that you were the original owner/purchaser of that product.
A lot of thought went into this, and to dumb it down with your conspiracy theories is sad. :(

I wonder if you called it a Certificate of Authenticity it might sound a little less "NSA". COA was the first thing that came to mind but it sounded a bit more like a tracking scheme than a "genuine product" marker.

I'm a pretty paranoid, "don't track me" type of person, and this thought never even entered my mind. I mean, they already know who bought the caps. This does nothing but help someone prove it is authentic. If it is the points thing that makes you go to "they are tracking me" that sounds entirely optional to move with the cap. Maybe I'm misunderstanding?
I am sorry if you are having an issue with the name, but that's really all it is, is a certificate. So you can put your theories to rest :)

Ok, so I was the primary person who brought that up that the serial number idea bothers me in irc, and I wasn't going to even bring it up in this thread cause there was no need to bring it into here.
You could have addressed it there, but since you brought it here, yes the thought of one more thing individually tracked and tied to an individual is not comforting. And this is coming from someone who uses his own name on a public forum.
So when you purchase anything on CTRL ALT, and pretty much anywhere else, your information about the order is saved into your account. This isn't any different.
The bro points are just adding points towards purchasing something in your account. Once they are redeemed, they are yours and have nothing to do with the cap
you purchased to get them.
The ID is just an authentication to its origin.
Your damn iPhones have a serial number and you worry about tracking? Your receipts from stores have a tracking number. Everything we own can be traced back to us by the government. Why are people worried about this?

This is an odd thought process and is kinda at the heart of why I personally had a very negative visceral reaction when I first saw this. Simply because much of our lives can be tracked and many people don't care doesn't mean no one should ever care.
It's like when people say "if you have nothing to hide you shouldn't worry about privacy invasions" Its a fallacious argument.
I'm not worried that Bunny and Bro are suddenly going to start becoming the NSA, I simply disagree on principle with adding one more thing to the ever increasing list of data trackable to an individual.
Are there bigger issues out there? Yeah, which is why I made a couple comments in irc (and a DeBeersCaps joke). But to just call it tin foil is completely unfounded.

But serious time now, will this trading system by chance also facilitate adding a tracking number when something is sent, so you see if anyone actually sent something just to stop people scamming others?
And AND will this now having numbers also work into a system like Baldgye and VesperSAINT made with a gallery of all the keys released afterwords? :D

We are still working out the details on this, but essentially it's just a trade facilitation. Once the packages have been shipped, both parties can enter the tracking numbers into the trade transaction page. Then when they receive them, they can mark them as 'received'. When both members mark them as received, it will mark the transaction as 'successfully completed'.
the conspiracy cry is from people pissed off they can no longer flip the caps for profit and continue to do so w/o getting caught.

Have you added support for giving caps away? Happens somewhat frequently.
Sounds pretty awesome though, I'm pretty awks when it comes to trades and always worry so I kinda like I would have a official route to do it, although the two I have traded with where stellar people!

I simply disagree on principle with adding one more thing to the ever increasing list of data trackable to an individual.
I'm sorry if this seems like I'm picking on you, but I just want to understand the viewpoint.
This seems to me to be a very opt-in program, so I don't quite understand the concern. If you don't want CtrlAlt knowing you've purchased a cap from someone, can't you just not tell them? There's no way they can force you... This is just a way to know that it's genuine. Or am I missing something here?
This seems more like a points system than an authenticity mechanism. Those hologram stickers readily available and easy to recreate. A counterfeiter would only need to buy one key and then resell that serial repeatedly.
The points are a fun idea though!
So no chance of it coming off accidentally, right?

Actually, each number is specifically tied in with the cap style and stem type. So you can't simply guess numbers and try to pass them off. Every number can be verified. I can also speak more on the holograms themselves and the distinguishing factors. These aren't cheap off the shelf solutions.

I have no problem having a rational discussion around my views, so there's nothing to be sorry about.
So the weaker version of this authentication method which would be privacy preserving would be to have authentication stickers that simply have a model ID on them, e.g. "ChemBroV2" or a model #. This would allow an anonymous cap to be verified with a few pics. I assume this was rejected because if you fake the sticker you can pass it off as genuine.
Now let's talk about serial numbered caps. Theoretically this solves the problem, except the serial numbers aren't secret, you have to take a picture and send it to someone so they know it's genuine. But here's the rub, if it's not a secret someone could simply dupe a serial number and sticker. So here's where the trade depot comes in, it's all authenticated and chain of custody is tracked! But then we're back to the previous problem for everyone else. So if you have a cap that has spent time off the grid it's suspicious.
And from the reaction to me for even thinking there's an issue, you can imagine what will be said "oh you traded off the depot, do you have something to hide???"
Again I don't think this is ill intentioned I just do not like the direction.
Personally I think the first is acceptable, but find the second not. We all get choices, happens to be mine.
i think you severely underestimate how hard it would be to duplicate these at such a quality you could get away with whilst being cost effective, even to after market prices
everyone is entitled to an opinion, but you are thinking way to hard about this, and completely missing the point
i think you severely underestimate how hard it would be to duplicate these at such a quality you could get away with whilst being cost effective, even to after market prices
Ok, that simply reinforces my feeling in that a unique serial number would be overkill to prevent successful (and profitable) counterfeiting.everyone is entitled to an opinion, but you are thinking way to hard about this, and completely missing the point
(This isn't directed solely at you and more my exasperation at the complete overreaction of some people)
I don't know how many times I need to reiterate that I don't think you or Bro are doing anything underhanded, untoward, and instead have the best intentions. I don't know why everyone is having difficulty understanding the fact that I can agree with a motive but not with a method. The examples of unintended consequences are legion.
Either way, it's no fun shouting into the wind, and it seems like the vocal majority of your customers likes it so best of luck on the new method.

Pff. I have one of those. But do you also have a Costco Executive card?

My set is available. The person who bought it off of me is trying to start a PayPal claim a few minutes after they paid, and its not worth dealing with it. If you buy it from me, I will cover shipping. 122 for the base set.
It has been fixed, no longer for sale

Definitely a very cool and innovative idea. I love the idea of having COA, I'm always paranoid when trading that I might end up getting a forgery so this is a very welcome addition.Upthread Bro mentioned that it is embedded into the switch, so even on a transparent key, it is not noticeable.
I guess my only question is, these are embedded in the plastic of the key? How will this affect translucent and transparent keys? Thinking of something like the clear BBv2 from the liberator set, wouldn't the hologram be pretty noticeable? What about the effect this might have on backlighting shining through the key?

It is embedded within the keycap itself.
It wouldn't be noticeable if its mounted on a switch, as it sits right above where the switch housing meets the cap. If you are looking at the key not mounted from the top, it wouldn't be too much of a bother, as there's a lot of plastic in between it and the outside.

Especially how would it affect the backlighting, as the LEDs are often towards the top of the switch, where the hologram is.

Bro, are you starting this with the recent GB of Cherokey? That will be awesome!
Hey guys -
I wanted to get this information out there, since the Cherokeys, and every sculpted key moving forward, will be using this system.
Any chance we could apply for certificates for older caps we purchased from you? Even if it's just the certificate of authenticity and colour/name, obviously there wouldn't be anything on the actual cap and no points. I know this would add a bit of work but it would be great for those of us with decent brocap collections already ;)

Yes, still not sure what the ID points are for, but it's exciting!
If we trade a cap like the rustler, does the id card then go to the person you trade with?
Also just to add my own opinion I would be a bit wary of people not willing to send the card along with the key, unless they have a very very good reasonIf we trade a cap like the rustler, does the id card then go to the person you trade with?
I believe that was the intent as its sort of a certificate of authenticity but ultimately its up to buyers and sellers what they do.

I think it would be best to trade it with it.
Seeing how if you have both the card and the cap with matching IDs, then it's a sure way of telling if you are the original owner or have acquired it somehow through a legitimate way.
Although, you can argue about the wear of the cards, or people wanting to keep theirs. So like Spam said, that's what it was intended for but some may choose not to follow through with that.

I'd assume the card goes with it. It's part of the cap, and furthers proof of authenticity. If, for some odd reason, you wish to keep the card, it's up the buyer to agree.
You should never trade without the card. It's the integral part of authenticity. Insist it be included in any trade.
When the Bro Trade Depot goes live, it will be a requirement for trading.
The card is just the certificate of authenticity, so it will be traded, with or without points.
But you're right, the points are tied to the original account, so i'm unsure if there's a "point transfer" system that would be needed. People who will want to trade bros might want to stick with those with Tru-Bro IDs, and at that point both parties already have their points.
But if there's a giveaway, then i think people would be happy to get a cap and shouldn't complain about some points.

Giveaway caps offer the same bonus points as any sale cap. So when you get a giveaway cap, if you don't already have a CTRLALT account, one will be created and points attached.

I think the scenario in question is a user-hosted giveaway. If I give a cap away, does that still apply?
So when will the trading site be live? I need some Topre in my life.

It's in the line-up for things we need to get done. We are first working to get the data transferred to the new site and organized so we can get the cherokeys shipped. Once
that is done, we will get crackin' on the trade depot :)
Just a quick update on where this is at:
We are currently thinking of the best way to implement this system right now. So far, any keycaps you have purchased that have a tru-bro ID on it, will automatically assign the points to your account.
We decided that trading the points is going to be a massive headache for everyone, so when you purchase a keycap, you get points, and they do not transfer. Still figuring out a point value system, as
well. You will be able to apply it towards things like; t-shirts, stickers, keycaps, etc. I promise we have not forgotten about this, so thank you for your patience thus far.
There will be some really big things happening in the next month, and I will definitely update you here when that goes down ;)
