Sorry if someone has already asked this but can you confirm what keys are in the ISO set?

I must have been confused and ordered the opposite of what I intended. My order should be as follows:
  • (1) Base CCoG
  • (1) Mods GoCC
  • (1) Tsangan GoCC

This should basically be the inverse of Round 1 CCnG

Done!

Order placed... dammit. Well, at least my girlfriend doesn't have to know about this until at least March :P

Gupgup, if you get a chance, can you make sure I ordered the regular Base+Modifier set, rather than reverse? I'm about 99% sure I did but I just don't want to end up with the wrong ones 'cause I didn't double check. I want the standard CCnG I've ogled over so many times in the past days. Thanks!

You were right! It is as it should be!

Don't worry it will.  When you saw the first Round CC&G's selling for over $150.00USD then you know it is wanted out there.

If not, they would be selling for around $50 for each set.  And you know it never has dropped below $110 thus far.

Thank you for asking, as this will help in the future.

I have a folder in my PMs for all PMs regarding CCnG and other variables, so if you PM me obviously include that and I can answer it much easier :))

I don't know where people come up with the numbers saying that sets from round 1 are selling for $150. I've seen multiple sets in the last few months selling for between $75-80 for the base set, which is pretty reasonable imo.
There were over 320 sets sold in the original group buy so I have a feeling it will be pretty difficult getting this round to 100 sets.
Just my 2 cents.

I am hoping for 75. 

These keycaps are ****ing gorgeous though. If we only reach 75 it isnt because of demand, it is because people simply didnt know about this group buy. Perhaps we should advertise this buy on reddit's /r/mechanicalkeyboards?

If there was something special about this set I think it would attach a lot more orders. There's always room for improvement! The inverse set though might be cool.

Sorry if this was mentioned before:

Will the base set include 2 "geekhack" keys in both color combinations?

I placed my order anyway, but those are always a nice addition to a set :)

Go figure, so you think that Gupgup's current Group Buy hasn't killed off exorbitant pricing by gougers here on Geekhack?  This was after Group 1 had finished and many missed out on getting them, hence the high prices had started then (Complete set including Tsangan and 17 keypad).  But now you can get these here instead, at a far lower price then going into the Classifieds section.

Brilliant Topre render, it looks almost REAL.  The green looks better than what could be bought off EK.

I know it comes down to personal taste but damn that space bar does not belong... It really needs to be the same colour as the alphas.

For those who don't own any ccng yet (like myself), i just received a WCK universal spacebar from SP and was expecting it to look like the creamish off-white from original cherry white/beige sets.
However there's a distinct red portion in the 'off' of the wck white, the cherry white looks greyish in comparison.
So it's really a vibrant - yes, cream cheese, which is nice.

"CCoG Numpad Set" is the one in the mockup right? (because it has mixed colours) thus green on cream for the numbers and cream on green for the rest.

If you take note of the pictures from SP, both the base and mod kits come with those two keys to do just that so that you can have them match either the base color or the mod color.  Standard cap coloring is how is shown in the mock up, though

My main problem with the mockups hasn't been solved by Melissa, it doesn't reflect what's on the order form. It says very nicely what is normal and what is inverted, but once you look on the order form you see CCnG and GnCC. It would be easier to either add CCnG and GnCC to the mockups or add "normal" and "inverted" to the order form.

I agree.

I already placed my order a week ago, but I was constantly second guessing my selections.

Eagerly awaiting for the traditional sets to be over 50 :)

Alrighty I emailed Melissa at SP about the Numpad situation and she said to just label one as the "original". So from this point on, the CCoG Numpad is the one that we are going to say is the original. So if you want the numpad that was made in Round 1, you'll want CCoG.

If you want to make sure you have the "original" (one shown in OP) please PM me and I will check/change for you!

Hope this clears things up!
