[GB] GMK RGBYK - shipped, received, over.

[LechnerDE]

As it stands right now, we are approximately 1/3 of the way to MOQ. 

Wow, I thought these would sell like hot cakes. Come on people, order up!!


Judging by the few posts in this thread maybe not enough people are even aware this GB exists?!

[ghostjuggernaut]

So, an update on the current state of things.  We are not much further along than we were before.  We have about 2 weeks until the GB closes, and if we don't make it then the GB will be cancelled.  I hope that isn't the case, as I really want these, but it may just be a bad time for the GB.  If for whatever reason it does not happen, radio_killah and I will just keep the idea around, and potentially plan again for it in the future.

In my expericence there is never a good time to start a GB because people on Geekhack always recover from some GB. And the next best thing is always about to launch.

Maybe it's a good idea to attach this to Photekq's Classic Beige GB and show people how good these will look with his set. Wouldn't cost anything to ask him 

[Giorgio]

The fact that massdrop ran a similar gb may have something to do with the low orders. Does anyone remember when they started the gateron gb at the same time of the gh one? They steal ideas from our forum. **** them.

Hopefully people realise they need this! I really want these aswell, thats why I ordered 3 sets just to help reach MOQ even if I only need one. I know these will have a good second hand value aswell. Have you posted on DT and reddit aswell?

Damn hopefully the big order from asia will come soon.

The problem may be to the set being too well made, I could use only one set for multiples boards, so I don't need to pick multiples like in other GBs.

Since CB doesn't close until Mid-September, you could extend it a bit, maybe?

[romevi]

Yeah, I would really like for this set to happen and I'd be pretty bummed if it didn't.

My sig has been changed for this GB support. 

EDIT. any banner for this GB like that of Classic Beige in my sig?

[LechnerDE]

Photekq linked this GB in his current GMK Classic Beige GB :

https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=74183.0

Maybe you can ask him to include a mock up of the RGBK keys in his OP. Otherwise people might not notice it.

I guess not everyone is familiar with this abbreviation and newbies might skip this sentence if they don't see a picture.

I hope this buy has seen some love over the last 24-48 hours since CB went live

Do we know what the numbers are? Do I need to increase my order :-)

[radio_killah]

As of this post we have 118 orders.

So half way to MOQ? So we're saying there's a chance... Was this advertised anywhere other than this GB thread? We may get more orders if it was placed on DT or reddit too?

Yup, been on r/MK, DT, and Enjoyclick. Might have even been posted to KBDLab.

I'm in for a pack.

Someone with deep pockets just needs to come in and order 125 sets. Problem solved. Maybe a vendor?

[skuko]

maybe we should ask geekkeys or imsto for a large order? i'm fairly sure they could make some on these further down the line.

[Pieminister]

Order placed!

[DVH]

Hi ghostjuggernaut, Deadline moved to the end of September ?

[romevi]

Yeah, any way we can extend this? I really would love for this to happen.

[ghostjuggernaut]

We will not be extending the deadline. If it doesn't make MOQ, it doesn't make it. We can always revisit down the road, when there is more interest.

[azhdar]

let us know the numbers as some point, I wouldn't mind doubling order to help it reach MOQ

[jdcarpe]

Hopefully this will see a big bump at the end, as usually happens.

[ghostjuggernaut]

Currently at 119.

I have ordered 3 sets but would definitely go for more if it would be needed to hit MOQ. I just think it's strange that there aren't more orders. With this and classic beige it's a extremely nice looking set.

[LechnerDE]

Yeah, I also thought this would be a no brainer GB, but apparently people don't realize how awesome these keys look paired with a GMK beige set

Hopefully there will be many last minute orders 

[korrelate]

and you've gotta love the legend-less shift keys... those strike me as hard to come by.

[awhitedev]

We need hype-master Elrick to hype these up for us! People do not realize the opportunity they are missing out on!

You've got clacks but don't know what a Lightsaver is?

It's a Korean custom from a group buy from the maker Duck.

There's an IC going for one at the mo',  but yes,  I am ashamed to say I didn't know what a lightsaver was,  not sure what that's got to do with owning clacks.  Custom and vintage boards are a new territory for me right now.

Owning a ClickClack is just as deep in the rabbit hole as Lightsavers are, mang.

Ha ha,  true...  At least the lightsaver is useful.

[awhitedev]

Doubled my order. Don't really want to but I could possibly triple. What're the numbers like now?  Really hope some big orders come in this week. Would be a shame to not see this set become a reality. Get your orders in people! 

[LechnerDE]

If it made a difference, I could add another kit to my order as well and sell it later.

What are the current numbers?

Not much change since last time Ghost or I updated the count. Still sitting just slightly above 50% of MOQ.

[Zensuji]

Surprised people aren't falling on this with gmk beige going on......any way put me down for a set

[bubbahana]

Ok just jumped in for 2

[awhitedev]

If anyone is on the fence because of the issues with TA... don't be... you should buy these.

The tried and true colors of these caps, and classic beige, cannot be compared to the shortcomings of that group buy. GMK has proven themselves capable of producing premium, if not the best, keycaps around. The colors used in TA were custom and they did not know how the dyes would affect the quality of the finished product. The primary colors used in most GMK sets have been used thousands of times. They have those down to a science! Also, it's pretty obvious to me that the scratches were the result of crappy Massdrop packaging... which, unfortunately, I've experienced first hand in previous buys with them.

Hi bro,I'm addicted to GMK,no matter the color-way is and profile is,I'll double my order.
From oblivetti and RA,,from the triumph Adler and hyper fuse,to Miami nights and classic beige's ，as for me,a big fan of GMK,I almost double my orders in these GB.The upcoming GMK SoWaRe and GMK skidata' replica attracted me so much I couldn't resist the temptation to double them. I think there are many GMK fans like me
As for GMK's MOD pack,MD have launched RGBY and CMYW,,in addition to Blue MOD even the less possible RED mod,there's so much GMK's full sets and MOD including CMYK V2 with high compatibility, the demand for RGBK is less. Because all these GMK'GB,have already done and running now and upcoming,split and decrease the demand to hit the MOQ. In one word,the RGBK is a beautiful and right GB happens at right place but at wrong time.

[shower_king]

In addition to,many GMK's full sets have rich and abundant MOD,which has high compatiblity with all kinds of keyboards. All this vibrant and abundant mod make the demand for RGBK decreases further.
MY suggestion for RGBK is making this GB as long as possible as Miami night even more time for ours'wallet to recover or frozen this GB after deadline and find a perfect time to make  this GB thaw and happen again.

I still have hope. it's not like these sets are that expensive anyways. Buy now, recover funds later
