GB starting "in a matter of hours"!

And buy more (not less) than you committed to in IC phase.

Got it.

Thanks Matt3o for all of your work on this.

That day is already here?!

What a story... you can see the kind of behind the scenes work Matt3o had to bring this to us.

Big thanks!

No GB thread yet. (I've been watching that instead of studying. $:-\$ ) I even checked Massdrop.

Matt3o · « **Reply #662 on:** Thu, 21 May 2015, 01:28:16 »

Final price should be $15.50 for 2 spacebars! Plus shipping of course.

Almost there! We are refining the copy and adding pictures to the drop.

There will be 2 tiers, at 100 and 250 (orders not spacebars). If you don't confirm your order you'll put me in a very very unpleasant position with Massdrop... just saying...

Oh yeah, that price is good stuff!!! Thanks for getting this going and keeping us updated Matt3o!!!

byker · « **Reply #664 on:** Thu, 21 May 2015, 01:49:11 »

Amazing price! We won't let you down matt3o.

Matt3o · « **Reply #665 on:** Thu, 21 May 2015, 01:52:15 »

I ran the numbers on the "purchase intent" one last time.

We collected about 550 orders. I expect at least a 10% to resign, so let's say that if we get less than 500 orders I would be really disappointed

Color preference is as follow:

Red => 119
Sky Blue/Light Blue => 114
Medium gray => 104
Mint/Light Green => 93

Medium gray didn't make it for a whisker!

MarkRobbo · « **Reply #667 on:** Thu, 21 May 2015, 02:00:51 »

I think I'll be doubling my order to 8 spacebars at that price, depending on the most of international shipping with massdrop (sometimes its pretty absurd even on small items)

In for:

13x light grey
3x dark grey
3x red
3x blue

let's tip this sucker!

ghostjuggernaut · « **Reply #674 on:** Thu, 21 May 2015, 03:15:13 »

4+4 for now, might have to spring for more though. Thanks Matt3o!

RoflCopter4 · « **Reply #675 on:** Thu, 21 May 2015, 03:27:27 »

Down for two each of dark and light grey plus one red and one blue. Can't believe this is finally happening.

sorijealut · « **Reply #676 on:** Thu, 21 May 2015, 03:29:15 »

Choices, choices...

Light Gray + Blue would've been my choice, but I'm leaning towards LG + DG

hrinfinity · « **Reply #677 on:** Thu, 21 May 2015, 03:59:42 »

Just joined the drop! Cannot thank you enough for all of the work you put into this and all of your other endeavors Matt3o. Much appreciated!

Sweet titty Jesus. I actually lived to the day that the PBT spacebar was finally thought out and made. Three cheers for Matt3o! Bought all four. Hopefully this GB gets a ton of traction and more colors are done in the future (i.e. Pink/Green)!

atectatifern · « **Reply #685 on:** Thu, 21 May 2015, 06:04:12 »

In for two orders (eight spacebars total). Thanks, Matt3o!

nmur · « **Reply #686 on:** Thu, 21 May 2015, 06:36:01 »

In for one of each! Excited!

a_ak57 · « **Reply #687 on:** Thu, 21 May 2015, 07:28:42 »

Well, giving the pricing I decided to go in for 2 white, 2 black, a red and a blue. Probably won't use the red/blue ones but maybe I'll want to some day, so better safe than sorry. Can't wait to get rid of the scotch tape from my spacebars.

Game on! In for the combo pack and the 2xLight grey.

Matt3o, may I suggest another 'signature banner' to help spread the good word?

Bucake · « **Reply #690 on:** Thu, 21 May 2015, 07:55:40 »

PBT BARS!!! i think i'm starting to get feelings for you, matt3o

upped my order from 8 to 10.

and just a heads up for everyone:

option 1:
3 x 1 light grey + 1 dark grey
1 x 1 light grey + 1 dark grey + 1 red + 1 blue
price = $85.66

option 2:
4 x 1 light grey + 1 dark grey
1 x 1 red + 1 blue
price = $95.85

option 3:
1 x 4 light grey + 4 dark grey
1 x 1 red + 1 blue
price = $79.68

as you can see, each option = 4 light grey, 4 dark grey, 1 red, 1 blue
each option has a different pricing, even though you'd be buying the exact same thing. (think about it when you order!)

also, 1 x 4 light grey + 4 dark grey is only a few (7) bucks more than 3 x 1 light grey + 1 dark grey, so..... (2 spacebars for $7)

edit: made a thread in the keyboard section on overclock.net. i don't think Topre is popular there, but why not

And that also means that light gray match white HHKB caps and dark gray match black HHKB. Right?
