Title: GMK Monkey 2016 Group Buy (all shipped)
Post by: feng on Mon, 25 January 2016, 16:19:32
Update [6/3] all orders have been shipped. Tracking number will be sent to you soon through PM or email.

It’s the first time to make an icon on GMK’s doubleshot keycaps. 2016 is the Monkey Year in China therefore this keyset is named GMK Monkey 2016.

Specs
Color: white keycaps and orange fonts (T9 for base color; V2 for fonts color)
Printing: Doubleshot
Thickness: About 1.5mm
Profile: Cherry

[attachimg=1]

116 keycaps included as shown in the picture above. There will also be extra key(s) for the first 50 and 100 participants.

Extra Cherry Logo (red on black) as gift for the first 100 participants.
Another GMK keycap as a pleasant surprise for the first 50 participants. (So the first 50 people get 2 extra keys)

What's included in the 116 keys:

Standard 104-keyset
7.0 Spacebar
2x 1.5 Control
2x 1.5 Alt
2x 1.0 Windows
1.0   Fn
1.75 Shift
Stepped Caps Lock
Monkey Face
Cherry Logo



Deadline: February 13th. We only have about 3 weeks to take orders. We’ll stop taking order on February 13th, and it will take GMK about 2 months to finish our order. Hopefully we can start shipping before May. The schedule is a little tight, but we are trying to push this group buy to production as soon as possible. And we will choose express shipping (FedEx/DHL/UPS from GMK to USA) to shorten the delivery time to your home.


Pricing:

$125 plus shipping and Paypal fees


Shipping:

US – USPS First Class ($3)
US – USPS Priority ($6.5)
International – USPS First Class ($13)
International – USPS Priority ($44)

There might be additional charges on shipping if your order includes more than 1 set.


How to order:

Paypal only. I will send out invoices within 3 days of receiving your order. 4.4%+$0.30 Paypal fees will be added to the invoice.

Post by: Elrick on Mon, 25 January 2016, 21:21:56
You've got some here that only want a single colour for key-caps due to having weirdo layouts in various keyboard designs.

Actually having GMK Orange on Off-White is unique and may have a cult following especially linked with 'Monkey'   ;D .

All sarcasm aside, I am really bummed that TJ wasn't able to run Orange Crush.  :(  But given the choice between this set and no set?  I pick this one.  :)

Was just looking at the pic of GMK colors trying to get a better idea of what this off white looks like, and I don't see T9.      I see L9 & U9.

Does anyone have a picture of what T9 looks like in real life?

Does anyone have a picture of what T9 looks like in real life?

And these are the photos of Cherry G80-3060 (60 anniversary)
Base color: T9
Legend color: V1

I guess it's the color of T9.

Yeah but the set is already expensive as is, I think Zeal may have picked up a bunch since Karura said it wouldn't be a problem hitting MOQ.

Back to topic on this set, I think it's rather well priced but it missing some good keys in there.

If missed Skid data,why not go with Charred orange,i think it's not much different

Feel free to visit the Skidata thread, as the keys offered are quite different. :) You can see in the mockups.

Also, paid! Looking forward towards this set!
Thanks Karura,i know,so i ordered 1 Skiddata too.My opinion just for anyone who missed out it :D
Btw,paid \m/
2 GMK in 1 week,RIP my wallet :'(

Does the set have scoops or bars? I see bars in the mockup but there have been a few with bars in the mockup when the set has scoops

I just realized the set has bars. Must get it now.

Post by: Karura on Thu, 28 January 2016, 23:21:57
I am not involved in this project in any way, but my extensive experience with GMK has been that they typically create mockups off a "US 104 ANSI" template, which have "F" and "J" flat with bars, no scoops, but will end up producing scoops.

Another reason why scoops are usually made over flat F and J with bars is because that's how GMK and Cherry have always done it for the majority of their ABS doubleshot keysets, and it is a bit unlikely for a Cherry-affiliated (Monkey has the blessings of Cherry China) keyset to change it up.

Just wanted to offer my insight into this, as I know some people are jumping on merely because they see bars, and would be unfortunate if they were misled by the mockups. The only way to know for sure is to have confirmation from the purchaser, but it will most likely be scoops.

Valentine did come with bars. I wonder if Monkey would use bars as well. Could feng confirm whether this set will have scoops or bars?

Was just looking at the pic of GMK colors trying to get a better idea of what this off white looks like, and I don't see T9.      I see L9 & U9.

Does anyone have a picture of what T9 looks like in real life?

And these are the photos of Cherry G80-3060 (60 anniversary)
Base color: T9
Legend color: V1

I guess it's the color of T9.

Thank you for pointing that out Karura. It's been confirmed, this keyset will have scoops intead of bars on F and J. I also changed the mock up picture to scoops. My sincere apology for my mistake. I did not realize the GMK also makes bars on F and J until now.

We should honestly just get the set made with black mods and white alphas rather than needing to buy two sets in order to have the combo. It would save a solid $200 or so.

Here's a very quick and sloppy mock-up. Sorry. I may do another one with full orange mods on Monday.
Also, I completely forgot to add the blue num pad Enter in the mock-ups above, so I may tweak those later, but I think those already give people a better idea of what to expect. As always, however, remember that GMK renders are never color-accurate in person.

It helps to note that all of my SKIDATA+ mockups have been colour corrected to accuracy, and isn't the same as the ones GMK sends out.

You'll get a more accurate idea from my mockups, and you may even notice a slight colour difference between my mockups and the monkey one.

Hey feng, I know this GB is closed, but I also noticed that there are still some pending invoices and the form was open. So, I figured it wouldn't hurt to fill it out and see if you can add me in last minute (or if you have like overflow orders). If you have time and it doesn't mess up the order, I should be able to pay the invoice within an hour or so of receiving it. If it messes up any of your processing and order management, don't worry about it, I understand and I'll try to get it on the aftermarket! (I did miss the announcement and life of the GB after all!)

Thanks either way feng, and the set looks awesome! Would really love to get my hands on that Monkey key!

Just for the record in case anyone is questioning - if there is ever a "perk" to buying anything early (ie, Classifieds posts which only have one item, limited release Group Buys, etc), I always give a grace period of 5-10 minutes for others to express interest before doing so myself.  Missed out on a few nice things because of this, but oh well.

So...are all the orders paid?

I wouldn't count on Feng updating the thread any time soon. The orders have probably been submitted and the set is probably scheduled for production with GMK. We just gotta sit tight now. Feng will deliver.

I don't know why I'm so antsy to find out if I made it in the first 50. I don't even know what the bonus cap is!

There are less than 50 logged as purchased,  or have not all of them been posted?

It'd be nice to include the white base orange legend from this set, as it's probably the closest to a real monkey. Unless GMK can do brown?

why is it not trackable? USPS first class international should be trackable at least within the US borders (so it could at least give an indication when the parcel left US), or am i wrong?

edit:

i am VERY CONCERNED now. i have tried to track my parcel (sent via email by xiaodian) on usps.com and got this message:
USPS Tracking™ is unavailable for this product for SLOVENIA.

that would not be a big deal, except iam not in Slovenia, i am in SLOVAKIA!!!!!!

as CLEARLY indicated on my damn paypal shipping address.

so xiaodian, since you seem to be taking acare of this for feng now, i'd really appreciate all shipping details from my package and if you sent it to the wrong country, i expect you to correct the mistake.
