Thanks iMav for the geekhack key! You are the best.

Here's the Cherry key, thank you iMav!
(Also featured; some wonderful keys webwit gave me for free with the purchase of a keyboard; thank you too!)

Do you smuggle your keys in coffee so the dogs can't sniff them out? I thought that only worked in the movies.

vhaarr · « **Reply #106 on:** Tue, 08 June 2010, 08:53:17 »

Actually, I smuggle the coffee in the keys; that's Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee, but I just say it's "cheap coffee used as padding for protecting the keys", and customs are none the wiser!

Or maybe I just thought it would look nice

I'm quite happy with the photo, actually.

I just got mine as well
Such a good cap
Thanks iMav

washuai · « **Reply #109 on:** Wed, 09 June 2010, 14:26:25 »

I got mine Monday. I was happy :biggrin:. I want to put in a keyboard I won't have until the 15th, but won't see until the 17th. I still haven't found my camera battery charger, either. I guess I'll put damn blurry cams of the temporary location, into the picture thread.

iMav · « **Reply #110 on:** Thu, 10 June 2010, 19:50:17 »

Just to let everyone know, this last shipment of geekhack keys is going out tomorrow. I've been busy and simply haven't had the time to get to the post office.

Everyone that PM'ed me is getting what they requested.

Enjoy.

Aaaargh. I have a friend, and his uncle has a coffee farm on the blue mountain... but he's (my 'friend') a Mormon, and won't get me any.

Sadly, the Geekhack key is sold out, at least from its originator, although some people here may have bought extras.

As I understand it, Geekhack keys were only made for Cherry keyboards. Somehow, though, Ripster has a picture of one on a model M13 IBM buckling spring tenkeyless.

Welcome, and, of course, "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn"!

The second wave of GH key giveways (THIS thread) was for Alps GH keys.

Well my only "high-quality" KB is a steelseries 7G so the Key would have fitted perfectly, that KB somehow got me infected and i need more

Lovecraft fan or roleplayer ?

Thanks for the welcome.

I've read the stories, rather than playing the RPG or the CCG, although I know they exist.

Well, at least the characters lasted longer than a clone in Paranoia... sometimes.

This one looks nice, as I thought it would...

Right on iMav, my ALPS key arrived today. If I can get my hands on those oversized font ALPS key caps I might just have a board worthy of picture posts

iMav · « **Reply #127 on:** Sun, 27 June 2010, 08:04:32 »

So, who has received their Alps geekhack keys?

I did, and I will take a photograph as soon as I am able!
Thanks again iMav!

Any idea when additional cherry GH keys will become available? Sorry if this has been asked of you a thousand times already.

dmw · « **Reply #134 on:** Thu, 01 July 2010, 20:18:03 »

Man, I'm really sorry I missed this. I would have loved to have one on my HumbleHacker Keyboard. Will there ever be another run? Anyone have an extra Alps GH key they'd be willing to part with?

TexasFlood · « **Reply #135 on:** Fri, 09 July 2010, 13:21:05 »

Another one, Christmas motif.

Flikstrr · « **Reply #136 on:** Fri, 22 October 2010, 21:18:23 »

how do i get my hands on a green set?? (G,H, GeekHack, star). I love them an im hooked already in my brief time here! Would be for a Filco on default setup.

If not the individual red one will be more than fine, just prefer green lol

thx

Moogle Stiltzkin · « **Reply #137 on:** Fri, 22 October 2010, 21:47:33 »

To be honest i too would rather prefer this key instead.

Voixdelion · « **Reply #138 on:** Sun, 24 October 2010, 19:04:49 »

I was just lamenting my own lack of foresight about this over on the Custom Keycaps thread. I am really regretting ignoring the impulse to get one of those despite the fact that I didn't have an Alps board at the time.

(Sigh...When will I learn that little voice is usually right? I tend to get into more trouble when I think too much before acting.)

And I would really get some use of that "X%&#!" keycap if I programmed it to enter that text when the key is pressed....

iMav · « **Reply #139 on:** Sun, 24 October 2010, 19:07:27 »

I have a few Alps and Cherry geekhack keycaps in red only. PM me if you are interested.

sam113101 · « **Reply #140 on:** Sun, 24 October 2010, 20:32:47 »

were they available in another color*?
anyway, I've sent you a PM

I would very much appreciate if i can have 1 geekhack red esc key

mikeruth · « **Reply #142 on:** Mon, 25 October 2010, 09:59:04 »

I would like to have one. I have missed out every time that they have been offered. My Filco Tenkeyless (BLUE) would look better with one.

Thanks.

Quote from: sam113101;238426

Of course!

I got a HUGE wave of requests for these. So much so, that we should probably do a new order (as I don't have even close to the numbers available to cover the requests). Depending on demand, we are looking at $6 shipped in the US and $10 shipped international.

Please send me a PM with the following info if you are interested in this group buy:

Subject: GH key group buy

Specify the number of keys for each switch type (Alps or Cherry). Also specify whether you are able to pay via paypal. Finally, please provide me with your name and mailing address.

DO THIS EVEN IF WE HAVE HAD PREVIOUS CORRESPONDENCE REGARDING GEEKHACK KEYS!!

ironman31 · « **Reply #145 on:** Tue, 26 October 2010, 12:15:37 »

How will the process vary with the quantity of keys requested?

I am basing this on a quantity of 50 being ordered.

I'm harvesting addresses and keyswitch type from my PM's right now. If you didn't include your name with your address, please resend (I'm deleting all PM's that didn't provide the requested info...because, frankly, they are pouring in and I don't have the bandwidth to reply to each one requesting additional information)

iMav · « **Reply #147 on:** Wed, 27 October 2010, 11:13:27 »

If in doubt, resend your PM.

And, it's only going to be an extra $3 per key if you want multiple. (no additional shipping/handling)

zefrer · « **Reply #148 on:** Wed, 27 October 2010, 11:46:42 »

I'm assuming you mean $3 per key _set_

Any cost reductions for an 50,75,100 set order?

Senor_Cartmenez · « **Reply #149 on:** Thu, 28 October 2010, 07:37:59 »

ah I needed that info, without hope for a response I included it in my PM.
3$ per extra sounds about right.

Question:

Is thise a pure red-esc geekhack order? Or would it be possible to also order the green G and H key or maybe some blank keys in lavender or whatever colour?

IF that would be possible would it be necessary/desirable to find out if we can get e.g. 25 ppl to order a set of 4 blank lavender keys so we get a order of 100 for one key type?

If iMav doesn't want to make this order get out of hand and keep it strictly red-escape geekhack I totally understand. Just was wondering if ...
