[IC] Blank Black DSA Deep Dish PBT Keycaps

<< < (3/4) > >>

Zalusithix:
Personally I was looking at GAH for grey, BCT for blue, and RBR for red.

Edit: Assuming the price breaks only apply to a single color, it might make sense to get a primary large black order and then a smaller secondary batch(es) of color(s). The colors would end up costing more in this case, but that'd probably be acceptable to most people.

I just got word that the price is per color, meaning that there would be one set of breaks for each color. So we can do as many batches of colors as everyone wants, but it won't make sense to go through that process unless we get enough interest for one (or two) specific non-black colors. Alternatively we can just make this purely a black group buy with hopes to get everything done as quickly and smoothly as possible, leaving other colors for future buys.

So can we get enough interest (>50 caps) for a secondary color, or shall we just do this with black?

I'd go for 8 black and 8 blue.

Zalusithix:
Well there's nothing saying the orders need to be placed at the same time, so fast tracking the blacks is probably the logical choice and then branching out to select colors. With over 200 blank sets of keys ordered between the DCS and DSA group buys at MD, there should be more than enough people interested in the keys to at least get one alternate color.

This especially true if you consider you can use the deep dish on other areas of the keyboard to denote the nonstandard regions.

Both of those sound good to me as additional possible options

Ooooh, good point. On my Kinesis I find that I sometimes hit the bottom row instead of the zxcvbkm,./ row and whilst I think that the curvature of that board adds to the problem, giving those keys a different feel could be a handy plan to keep me from doing so with the dox.
