Epbt  Kuro Shiro: Sorry for the delay again. I thought the factory would send it to us on Saturday, but the factory said this morning that it is expected to send it to our warehouse next week

From Discord. One more week you guys. Hang in there.

What the actual ****... So far I am really disappointed with how everything has progressed.

I understand the reasons for the delay, but that doesn't make me feel any less disappointed at how long this is taking and how some mistakes could have been avoided.

You're yelling at the flight attendant because the plane is grounded because it's hailing outside.

I'm really happy this is getting close to getting shipped. Pretty hyped. One good thing for me specifically, about delays is that I then have the time to hype up when purchasing it, get the hype down with the waiting and then get the hype up again when it is getting closer haha.

The honest truth.
Over at GMK Peach n Cream, the GB finished in August but they are still waiting for samples from GMK for the THIRD time to correctly match the intended colors.

yeah. If most people got the options to either choose imperfect keycaps with mismatched colors and legends or wait a little bit longer it’d
be pretty clear. It’s impossible to perfectly plan these productions unless it’s mass produced. That again takes down the value of each set. I’d rather have a relatively rare, more expensive set delayed than a cheaper, mass produced set on time. Pick and choose.

You realize that the complaining doesn't make it get to you faster right? You've waited this long nothing stopping you from waiting a little more.

People know what they get themselves into. Delays are common, issues are unforeseen, you suck it up and you live with it.

If you can't do that, don't participate in the GB.

Complaining aside, I feel like the group buy process should be more streamlined than what it currently is. If group buys were a more common way of purchasing items, there would have been enough competition in the sector for there to have been massive improvements in how these drops are handled. Y'all are just acting like sheeps, trying to justify what is clearly bad customer service at multiple ends of the group buy interaction because others just so happen to have treated you even ****tier in the past. We suck it up and wait for the product, there is nothing else we can do if we want to buy sick keycaps, but those that complain have every justification to do so when a product they paid for takes more than twice as long to arrive at their door than they expected. Some of the more notoriously bad companies and group buy runners should pray that there isn't any more growth in this industry because they will find themselves unable to make any money when consumers have actual options. I do thank Gok for owning up to his mistake and being transparent about the situation, I hope this experience will allow him to better manage drops in the future.

Nah, the people complaining are just used to dealing with companies that have items for sale that already exist. These aren't brick and motor stores. This isn't Amazon. These keysets exist as intangibles and vendors are at the mercy of the manufacturers. I assure you there were set backs in the production of every single item you've ever bought, you've just never had to participate in their creation. Miscommunications happen. Delays happen. The only thing we can ask for is communication which we've been given.

I think the point was already made, but the thing is most gb runners and designers are members of the community and known by a lot of people. When they go make a set, a board, they have to deal with external things, like manufacturers, a lot of times in china. And people on this hobby are usually quite picky, so these runners can't just let some wrong colors pass, because the ideia of the set that they sold on the GB has to be met. Otherwise, people will just throw hate at them like in a lot of cases with DROP.com. And the core of it is the very fact that a gb sells items that still gotta go through production. Even though sometimes designers can get proto items before starting the gb, it doesn't ensure that the production samples will be at the same quality and everything perfect. And we get it. In such a process a LOT of stuff can go wrong. Bashing the runner/designer for not foreseeing the delays is simply stupid imo. And most gbs these days have the classic "Be aware that this is a group buy and thigs can go to **** sometimes", which is there because they can indeed go to **** sometimes.

Not a high horse, just saying that while I am sure that the GB runners look at comments like yours and try to take something from it, it can be a lot more discouraging than constructive to complain so aggressively. You get much further with sugar rather than vinegar. You do you, but I think it is safe to assume at this point in the GB it is not going to do anything to expedite the process.

I agree with the others posts though, this thread is meant to monitor for updates at this point. If you have complaints to voice to the GB runner there are other avenues to do so.

Complains about complaining while being one of the few guys actually ranting here. That's exactly what I mean when I say you two are on a high horse, a complete lack of self-awareness. Half the point of GB threads is to complain, constructively or not. I wasn't even complaining myself, I was simply saying at this point expect 5 more delay notifications and expect the worst.

On the other hand, there's no right or wrong when it comes to complaining. Are you going to go into Hyperfuse threads and tell people missing their f8 keys for years they're not justified to complain? Right now you're thinking "okay so what, this GB is only delayed for few months" and my response would be there's no universal delay threshold where complaining becomes justified. If people want to vent, fine and sometimes it indeed gets the job done. What I can't stand are the hypocrites.

Sweet lord the irony. I pointed out a fact and you started this whole rant about 'suck it up' as if I were complaining in the first place. Not too bright these kids. And in case you haven't noticed, 95% of the comments in these threads never added anything significant to the conversation in the first place including every single comment you ever made.

Just super excited for these caps. All the samples looked high quality!

Super grateful for the extra care taken to properly colormatch. Much rather get it done properly than done quickly.

Also WHITE RAMA WHEN.

I've asked KBDfans yesterday and they said that epbt are still packing the keycaps. Pretty disappointing that they're past another ETA but there's nothing I or even KBDfans can do about it.
At least it sounds like manufacturing is complete.

Regarding the shiro rama cap, I'm waiting for things to settle first. I've told KBDfans that I don't want to launch or progress anything until kuro/shiro has shipped.

Thanks Gok and I share the disappointment.  You've been doing a great job by keeping us updated.

Bless, it's coming soon. Good to hear they've been produced fully, at least allegedly.

I can resume work on it soon. When I left it, there were some alignment issues with the sideprinting because there wasn't a template and EPBT just aligned the legends however they wanted,
I'm also wanting to change the blue to something a little bit darker.

In other news, KBDfans have told me that the keycaps have started shipping to them. They have been slow to respond to messages because they are in the middle of moving their warehouse.

Not that I know of. There will be a different Rama cap in the future though.

I think people who just ordered the Rama were getting them early.

On another note, wanted to upgrade my shipping from the epacket to something faster so I talked with kbdfans' support through Discord and I also asked for an update on the set. They told me that shipping should start in a week so hopefully that's true.

From Discord:

Quote
Hello
Kuro_Shiro_Base_Set 385pcs ready
Kuro_Shiro_Number_Pad 79pcs ready
The other kits are still in production, and the factory says they are expected to be finished in a week

Wow.
For my next PBT dye sub set, I am definitely switching to KAT.
