Will ZF and monokei have extras? Or will I have to pin my hopes of snagging one entirely on Novelkeys?

All my GB orders were shipped out yesterday.

Extras went up for sale just a little bit ago, and we are completely out of base kits. Keep in mind that some people may back out, so stock could come back at some point.

Because me and another user had both bought from candykeys but have cancelled our orders this morning  because we got what we needed from novelkeys. (And candykeys didn’t mind at all).

Just received a shipping notification this morning.

Hours later, a package from monokei was delivered to my front door. Will open it when I'm home later.

Hope you get yours soon!

Throwing these on a gold case seems obligatory, but maybe seeing some greens (lime green) splashed in there as it's a complimentary color would work..

Received mine yesterday. Does look good in person, particularly the rose color and the rose on black. Set was well-designed and looks clean.

Unfortunately, the quality control is not at all what I would have expected. My spacebar has noticeable flaws on the edges. I see them when standing 6 ft away from my desk. Also a weird circular bump and a couple blemishes/marks on the front. The number keys look like they bled a bit (?). Not sure what term to use or what part of the process would cause this, but very uneven and weirdly bolder on parts of the numbers. 1 is much thicker than 2, 2 is much thicker at the bottom of the 2 than the top of the 2, etc.

https://imgur.com/a/5BUGaxc

Everything but the circular bump on the spacebar looks worse in person. I'm having trouble capturing it on camera. The pictures of the 1-3 keys look okay to me, while they look much more like a $30 set from Aliexpress up close.

Same is true on the 5 key, bolder than other numbers for some reason. Have only been able to glance over the rest of the set, but hoping it's mostly okay. Unfortunately, I'm buried at work and can't take the time to do a more complete check or photoshoot.

My luck that the damaged spacebar is the one I need hihi. Definitely the most frustrating piece as it stands out so much.

Idk, maybe this is the standard level of QC for GMK. I'll admit I'm brand new to this, but photos from others of this and other sets look like they passed a different check than mine.

Feels like this was in a b-stock stack, and someone decided to ship it anyway.

Not trying to be a downer in an otherwise upbeat point in the thread! Looking forward to seeing more pictures, as it really does look great outside of these QC issues.

The circular bumps are normal. They're always there on GMK sets from the way they're produced and then split/clipped into each individual key. As for the rest of the flaws, I can't speak much about them, but it seems like it may be more ordinary than we think.

NovelKeys feels this is all normal, including the spacebar ("flashing"). Seems to have washed his hands of this.

I do credit him for a quick and thorough response.

Just FWIW, buyer beware, etc.

GMK keycaps certainly came come with little imperfections like that. Can you take a fine grain file and just get rid of it - no harm no foul?

On inspection, the base of my 2 is slightly thicker that the rest of the number as well but certainly not material enough to bother me personally and definitely nothing like a $30 aliexpress set.:)

I've just heard that bulk set imports get stuck in Chinese customs for a long time, and there are significant delays for zFrontier shipping of such products as a result.  Many GMK sets have been affected by such delays.
