GMK 'Miami Nights' + CMYKv2 + spacebars: In Limbo/Unfulfillment

[wlhlm]

How much for intl. shipping? Just want a few spacebars.

Also I would disable the option that anybody could see other people's responses...

Yeah, awesome! /s

SORRY for leaking the info! I forgot it defaults to doing that and neglected to uncheck the box for that option which is now deactivated.

Yes of course you can order any item you wish separate, even a single spacebar if that's all you want.

Shipping cost varies. I may suggest you can go to USPS.com and choose calculate a price to get an estimate. Each full set will be around 7oz, CMYKv2 about 3oz, each pair of spacebars around 1oz. It will show you the prices for each options of first class and priority (express).

[Blackehart]

In for set and spacebars!

Will you have an EU proxy for shipping things to people in Europe?

Better chances of it slipping through untaxed when going separately. Also probably much cheaper.

A proxy probably only makes sense with separate keys and then shipping it as mail.

[IvanIvanovich]

I ship all orders from USA. That way there in no VAT charges, and most of the time you won't have import charge either.

[madhias]

I am in for one main set.

[Joey Quinn]

I couldn't wait so I ordered.

Good man,  this is one very classy GMK set open for installation into any coloured keyboard made with any type of CherryMX switch  .

Looking forward to this one going into GMK's molds for the complete realization of all our German Fetishes  .

I just wish I could justify the CMYKv2, I know I'll want it at some point but I don't have a use for it now.

[choc]

Ivan, can I complain that the Windowed Lock keys in CMYKv2 are side printed, while the Lock keys in the full set are top "printed"? (I know it's double shot.)

I think it's very strange and inconsistent if these Windowed Lock keys were to used with the full set.

And this is why I am hesitating to get several full sets and CMYKv2 sets of "Miami".

[Puddsy]

i might need to get in on this

thanks for adding so much time for orders, june 30 is very much doable

though those less patient than myself might have issues

This sounds to me like justification enough 
Think what it'll cost you later

It's going to be an expensive summer, the $45 will be better used elsewhere. I already said no more keyboard spending yet I've bought $50 worth of Bros and this set. 

[n7]

In for one of everything (except 7u spacebars)

I bought 2 of each 7u bar and 1 of each 6.25.  )

[Joey Quinn]

To change my order I just resubmit the form right?

[naasfu]

order placed.  thanks, ivan!

order placed.  thx, ivan 

[retainerbox]

Hey Ivan I'm just wondering if the CMYKv2 here will match the PBT black keys from your other group buy? Or, are the PBT black keys much more grey coloured?

[IvanIvanovich]

This is true black, the PBTs are light black/very dark grey so it would look totally different.

[greath]

This is true black, the PBTs are light black/very dark grey so it would look totally different.

This maybe a dumb question, but do you know if this black will match OG Cherry WoB doubleshots' black? Thinking of picking up a mods pack and a couple spacebars to complete my set.

[IvanIvanovich]

Yes, should be perfect with old Cherry black ABS sets.

[Latin00032]

Ordered. Hopefully we make minimum moq.

[Elrick]

Yes, should be perfect with old Cherry black ABS sets.

You see this is why Ivan  is the Smart Man of Key-sets when organizing any GMK Group Buy.  Instead of getting a difficult or rare colour-way made by them it's the traditional Black and Coloured Legends proposal, which easily augments with every plain Black and White Cherry made key-sets available.

With these Coloured Legends it helps to highlight with subtlety, how grand this new key-set will be with any type of Cherry based keyboard.  In fact any coloured keyboard would pop with these babies installed, hence Ivan has indeed designed a key-set that can be truly universally installed across any coloured keyboard that has ever been made.

There is a reason why I love chatting with Ivan about GMK colourways, and bounce ideas back and forth

He's got the enthusiasts in mind, and tries to find a neato set to offer the community, that is not only practical but also exciting.

BTW I'm totally in this GB, placed an order a few days ago. Looking forward to getting it.

That said, I am also kinda on the bench regarding the side-printed capslock!! How come we aren't going for the pink top-printed Capslock, so we have a proper replacement for the one in the base set?

^This.

[radio_killah]

Is the best way to cancel an order to just create a new order with all 0's? Or should we PM you?

[LXXXIX]

Ivan I just wanted to let you know that you have some real "cojones" for trying out some smart and unique new ideas. I respect it and I joined this instead of the JTK debut (no offense to bunny I just don't have the funds).

I look forward to this set a lot. By the way have we met our MOQ yet?

[IvanIvanovich]

If you want to cancel, submit order with zero quantity is good.

Still a ways off from MOQ, but off to a decent start.

Is there a progress count somewhere?  Sorry,  just excited for us to reach the MOQ.

[IvanIvanovich]

I don't think I am going to publish numbers this time... I have often wondered if it is actually counterproductive. Like too many people don't want to put in an order unless it's already reached the MOQ... but how do we get to MOQ without the orders?

Understood....  Looking forward to the big WE HAVE HIT MOQ post

[DanielT]

I still have to do some math to see what I can afford and what I can not, but by tomorrow I will place my order. Not only this is a cool colorway but we are talking about the best keycaps money can buy I only have eyes for GMK and Original Cherry caps

And good call not posting numbers, people must join this GB

[jaemzp]

Hey Ivan, would it matter if I edited my order myself? I've changed it a few times.

[Elrick]

Understand your commotion here BUT PMK has been running their website perfectly with timings showing exactly what you mentioned, that MOST will not order unless the MOQ rises towards the end of the deadline posted.

Like it or not having a a clearly updated MOQ showing daily numbers, can only help to reach the final numbers needed to make this Order happen.  You can blame SP for starting this type of ordering procedure.

I'm in between you two on opinion. I wonder if the numbers play much of a role at all, or if orders are more determined by interest versus available funds.
It's always going to be impossible to tell, so speculation is fun.
At the end of the day I like to believe that everyone who really wants it will find a way to order.

[Elrick]

At the end of the day I like to believe that everyone who really wants it will find a way to order.

May be true but for us Key-set Red-necks that will ALWAYS buy a GMK set no matter the cost, some people time their purchases relating to a number of factors like for example,  waiting to see if enough numbers show that it will tip then decide when their next pay cheque will come into their possession.

Also if anything else might pop up inconveniently like rent, car payments, school fees and such like.

Add that too a mixture of hesitation and remorse as you pour your last cent into a Group Buy and wondering if it will at all happen.  You need to take away that uncertainty because that forces the young ones away in droves,  why should they care about handing over a promise to pay, when it might not ever happen?

[IvanIvanovich]

There should be no concerns about paying into something that won't happen. I don't even send invoices out unless I know it can happen as orders have reached MOQ.

[geniekid]

I really like the color choices on this GB, particularly that all the keys have the same background color.  Contrast between mods and alphas can be aesthetically jarring sometimes and it's refreshing to see something more uniform but still visually interesting.  The front printing looks great too.

It is my personal opinion that this is one of the best looking keysets ever.  Hopefully enough people agree with me

[taylordcraig]

My thoughts exactly Ivan! There's no hesitation because if it doesn't reach MOQ then our wallets were never in danger. For now it's just a dream that we can plan ahead to pay for.

[taylordcraig]

Pardon my double post but I'm bumping this because it needs to happen.

Exactly, with Ivan just put in your order now so that we can see if there's a lot of interest, so no one is asking for the money.  When it tips here on Geekhack then you produce the moolah to see this baby built, hence for all the newbies out there don't worry about producing the money for your order just yet.

[shower_king]

Regarding so many GMK's GBs have been and being launched, Ivan is so kind to make this more time than usual to leave enough time for wallets recovery
However , as a pessimist, even there are almost fifty days left, the feadback from my chinese friends show that they all are more interested in the Spacebars than other two sets.
IF only spacebars and CMYK V2 reach the MOQ , the basic set couldn't . Will this GB happen as usual or cancelled?

Alright I'm down for these amazing looking caps. This'll be my first full set of custom caps. At least the 7-week+ deadline gives me enough time to break the news slowly to the wife about how much I'm dropping on some plastic letters

It'll be hard at first. Especially when the set costs as much as that keyboard you bought that already costs too much money.

 Then they will just realise that you are possessed and insane by the GMK demons that cannot be purged.

Easy solution, take your wife out on the town.   

Nothing better than taking her to Restaurant Amuse (64 Bronte Street, East Perth) and spoiling her then later show how much you love her by showering her with gifts, with anything she likes  .

Very easy solution to convince her how much she means to you BUT also getting all your key-caps delivered to your address with NO complaints whatsoever  .

Haha it helps knowing that I'm not the first to wander down this path. May the restaurant-wooing and GMK-demon possession of those who went before me keep me safe. If not, bury me with brocaps on my eyes.
