This GB is for $10 USED Cherry white-on-black Double Shot's from MY7000 HPBUS-2 keyboards
These are USED keyboards, so some keys may be shiny, but I will attempt to select the least used keyboards.


Here is a sample picture of the keys you are getting here for just $10. This was one of the sets from the last time I ran a GB for these keys




*** This GB is ONLY offered to people who have purchased a white-on-purple or cmyk GMK pack from the current GMK GB ***
http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=41017.0
*** If you are not on the list for purchasing one, you will NOT be allowed to purchase here. NO EXCEPTIONS ***


By combining a white-on-purple set with a $10 set from here, this would get someone new to mechanical keyboards an almost complete set of Cherry DS for a very reasonable price
-60% boards such as poker or GH60 would only be missing a spacebar
-TKL boards such as a FILCO would only be missing the spacebar and then have the Delete/End/PgDn in the wrong profile
-Full size boards would be missing the spacebar and 2x sized numpad 0 and have the Delete/End/PgDn in the wrong profile


Example image of how it would look on a TKL board when combining these keycaps plus a white-on-purple pack and Esc pack from the GMK GB



These keys will be shipped together with the white-on-purple or cmyk ones from the GMK group buy
-If you are CONUS this will not increase your shipping fee from the GMK group buy
-If you are outside CONUS, your shipping fee from the GMK group buy will increase due to the additional keys and USPS rate increases. This would add about 5oz of weight to your shipping


This GB will close on March 30th April 20th at the same time as the GMK GB.


Please fill out this form to order and make sure your username and email match what you submitted for the GMK GB as that is how we are confirming your order.
Link removed as we have more orders than there are boards  ???


I reserve the right to limit the number of sets anyone person orders. There are lots of sets available, but it isn't an unlimited number.

Flynn being the man as usual. Nice work and thank you friendo.

Note to the interested parties: These keycaps are pretty much NEVER this cheap! Cherry doubleshots are pretty much the best ABS keycaps you can get for MX Cherry keyboards. Definitely get in on this if you're looking for the best value for your buck.

If y'all don't need your various odd keys from this set (6x space, 1x mods, 1.75 shift, off-center caps), then I'm willing to take them off your hands ;)

thanks flynn, this actually did push me over the edge for ordering from the GMK gb. So there's at least one new order.

I don't really like the purple in the mock-ups, but I am willing to wait until I see it in person before deciding for sure. Never tried cherry ds before, so I am pumped about that.
I stay busy with work and family these days, but I'm still around, lurking.

They're nice for incoming GH60's and what not... oh, and for the QazPad™. Yup that's trademarked. SMALLFRY TRADEMARKED THE QAZPAD!
Also, on a serious note... the keys with the most shine are the F8, Esc (which shouldn't be a problem with the GMK buy), and the down arrow. If I had to rate each key in terms of shine, 1 to 10 (1 being a mirror) they would be as follows: Esc 1, F8: 3 or 4, Down arrow: 6 or 7. Also, the numberpad is very shiny, but I don't use it, so it doesn't bother me.

Yeah I didn't like the purple in the mockups either, but the real life pictures in the GB thread convinced me. They look a lot lighter in the real photos.

Yeah, the pic of the arrow keys looks better. So if I wanted to finish this out with the proper + and 0 keys for the numpad, anybody got a good source for those? Would like the ability to put this on a full size...

MY-8000 is best bet for missing/incompatible keys. Too bad there is not a similar source for price on the 8000, as it would be a better match for most people.

Agree with SmallFry, the Esc keys, the arrow keys, and the num pad are real shiny.  The Alphas are in good shape.

Modifiers would all be covered by the purple or cmyk sets. Only the things like correct profile/size nav, numpad, and space are left unaddressed for now.

Was your F8 shiny? It may have just been the particular place the board originated from for my set.

His definition of full set includes the purple modifiers from the order you need to have to order these.

If you've never typed on a cherry set this is the one to get in on. Granted, they're used (but at the same time, really cheap), but there a great way to discover how epic cherry DS caps are when compared to SP or OEM caps

This is great.  I wanted the purple set but don't yet have a Cherry profile set to go with it, and wasn't sure what I was going to do.
Thanks so much for going through this effort.

Considering that there will probably be a large range of conditions for these keycaps, how are they going to be distributed to the buyers? First to pay to get the best sets? Something else? Just random?
