Sorry for the confusion, how an extra becomes an extra.

group buy runners and vendors pretty much always manufacture or order more items than they have buyers for. this applies to keycaps, keyboards, etc. the idea is that if something comes in defective, they have a spare to fulfill the order. once all orders are fulfilled, whatever is left is an extra. if a keyboard has small defects, it is sometimes sold as a "B stock" extra. for unlimited group buys, vendors will buy extras with their own money and sell at higher prices just to earn extra money on the side.
