[IC] GMK Fleuriste - GB JAN 25-FEB 25

[Mecxs]

It's priced reasonably with that number of keys and compatibility, Kono priced a smaller R2 Firefly Tkl base with even higher price even tho it's R2. If you compare 2 base kits, look at its version then its size then how many custome colors or molds. Fleuriste base is priced nicely tbh.

Yes. Both firefly and this set are overpriced. Kono hasn't changed and still routinely charges huge prices for the sets that they run. Glad you agree with me.

Fleuriste is priced lower than I expected at Kono, it's actually nicely priced. However, Firefly R2 is stupidly priced.

The fact that a single set with worse value exists doesn't make this well priced.

It's $167 if I want a numpad. I can get than for $135 from other sets.

It's $120 if I don't want a numpad. I can get that for $110 from other sets.

Kono's pricing is always high. This is not an exception, and you are wrong to say that it is. Keep arguing if you want, it won't change that fact.

Can you two take your debate to DMs rather than clog up the IC with your opinions on vendor pricing? If the set is to your liking and falls within your budget, consider it. If not, there are dozens of other sets in IC to consider purchasing.

set looks great, unfortunate that you cant get a 2nd 2u anywhere in 40s or spacebars.

Hey folks!

Quick update on upcoming collabs. I'm excited to announce the HIBIxFLEURISTE collab and later down the line you can expect another novelty cap from MOZIcaps!



On another note, I still don't have finalised prices for all regions but I hope we'll have those soon as well.

Can't wait for this GB to start and to actually see the MOZICAPS collab

Very nice!

This set is effing beautiful. Day one GB for me.

I really like the flair of this set! It is probably way too late to suggest something like this, but being a primarily "dark on bright" set, it could have been done in PBT. GKM lead times and prices with custom colors... I am a year in with GMK Stealth and production is still not on the horizon. ePBT would also allow lower MQOs for kits like NorDe, I assume.

Absolutely! It's been three thirds of a year since the set entered IC and a lot of things changed since then. Some things I would do differently, some things the same but I wanted to get it done with GMK from the start so I just want to go through with that. Obviously I had no idea how complicated things will get (we had to wait an unusually long time to even get the quotes) but here we are

With the GB date just around the corner, prices are coming in for the set, I'll update this as soon as I get the remaining prices:



Thank you for the compliments and the feedback everyone! See you on the 25th!

Very few keycap sets hit that sweetspot inbetween a truly retro vibe, evoking memories of the IBMs, Dells & Apple vibes from the 80s like GMK 9009 or Sandstorm do. Or, the fresh looks ranging from either pastel to vivid like GMK Camping, Tuzi or Camping. This set, GMK Fleuriste does that! It hits that retro feel, while feeling updated n' fresh. Personally, only GMK Birch has also hit this sweetspot. Incredible color choices, with wonderful accent keys.

As far as I know, the caps are still in the works. I need to talk to beancombo (creator of mozicaps) if he has progress on it, but I expect it to drop during GB. :)

THE GB PAGE IS NOW UP

these are kits inspired by france and there is not even a layout azerty fr

these are kits inspired by france and there is not even a layout azerty fr 

Unfortunately, based on the feedback I gathered, interest in a Norde kit was extremely low and mentions of french azerty layout even lower.
Despite the inspiration being Paris, I wanted the set to reach wider audiences, so I tried to communicate the inspiration through design.
I still hope you find something you like in the set.

On another note, the pages for Kono, Prototypist and zFrontier are up with the first two already live! You can find all the links on the GB page.

I know the problem, the French market is a very small market, we are the only ones to have this layout so it is difficult to find qualitative ones

Thank you for your answer
