Wow! Can't believe Midnight attracts me so much!

It does look really good. I just wish it was going to be DSA.  By the votes most people want it either DCS or SA.

You are correct sir!

Well I think if anything, I think you should only be able to buy either or if you get each other above XX amount of orders.

If this went SA I would be all over this in a heartbeat.  Purchase 4 complete sets plus any extras to start with  :thumb: .  But it looks like a no go for the greatest profile ever created  :'( .

hmm, sorry for asking again, u did mention that a centre-stem stepped capslock is possible, but based on the pricing or based on the number of orders?
really hope there's a centre-stem capslock for the base kit if possible!  ;D

ATM all stepped keys have stem on the left but we can change that.

it doesn't impact on pricing I guess. what do you guys prefer?

I was thinking something like what raindrop has, a normal centre capslock and a centre stem stepped capslock.

but if we have to choose which type we prefer, my vote will go for centre stem stepped capslock.

I always have issues with hitting the capslock key accidently when typing fast, so a stepped capslock key that fits modern boards (center stem) would be nice. If this doesn't change the price I am in favor of one :)

Since this is from SA SP, I assume these are going to be ABS?
No chance on these going Cherry profile either right?  :-X

I believe so.  Looks like Matt3o is trying to get some bugs resolved with the orders/templates put into SP's GB system before things go live... but that's just my guess.

Nice! Do you think we could potentially get 2 sets like hyperfuse where the DCS has cherry legend and DSA has the large centered legend? I was feeling the large centered for this set! Thanks for doing this, the color scheme is very cool.

Then it will probably be in the ~30$-40$ range.

I wonder if SP would do combined shipping if you participate in multiple GBs that end at roughly the same time. This would encourage me to order even more :D

I am especially interested in the other red/grey DSA set :p

Dear Sir, do you think it's best to go back to how it was all done before?

I don't mind paying some poor soul to sort and mail caps to me, because I feel they would do a better job than SP.  Just a subtle observation thus far doesn't bode well when dealing with SP to take and distribute everyone's orders, throughout the world.

Just have a think about it, nothing worse when they drop the ball and guess whom will get the incessant complaining?

Yeah, our crummy australian dollar is falling faster than a turd down an S-bend.  Hence everything suddenly costs more for no reason other than the fact we are stuck here in Convict Town.

Yeah, this really makes me think twice about joining this GB.

I mean I love the set and it was a no-brainer for me before to buy it, but these costs add up, especially since I can't combine shipping for Matt3o's 2 Group Buys that basically end at the same time. On top of that SP won't undervalue the items so I am looking at an additional  ~30$ of import taxes.

I am afraid I'll have to skip these GBs and save my money for Bunnylake's upcoming GMK sets :(

Maybe we can arrange a proxy solution for international shipping? I guess most of the orders will come from the US anyway so it shouldn't be too much of a hassle.
