[GB] GMK Classic Beige

[s3vv4]

I _really_ don't get why using Stripe is a problem.

It requires a credit card, which PayPal does not.

Nor do I! You don't need an account, you just need a card. Bam. I had never even heard of stripe until this, and just signed up, put my numbers down and that was that.

I can see that. Not everyone has a credit card.

Why is using Paypal a problem?

PayPal can be a hassle for large orders that don't ship right away. It's great for buyers; not so great for sellers of large quantities.

Also a ***** for people under 18

On EC, those who couldn't pay by Stripe have paid for this classic beige to a proxy in China.
IF it doesn't happen at last, we'll get our money returned.
Meanwhile, a BSP GB has been launched until 2015.9.3

i also wanna join in this GB, but i have to save money for skidata replic set.
If claasic beige couldn't make it, i will change this to BSP. if classic beige success, i will join this and give up BSP.So whether classic beige success or  not is very important to me.
The worst thing is that i join classic beige and give up BSP then finally classic beige fail to happen but BSP succeed.
there are half a month , i don' worry about this, we have enough time to work and make this happen. Good luck.

OTD have launched a Dolch GB of GMK two years ago.when Dolch hit the MOQ of 250, they add White legend Of Black set(WOB) orders to GMK. The WOB set  don't need  MOQ, the WOB sets will be produced even just they have only 100 WOB sets. WOB set has been regarded as a part of Dolch set by GMK.
My suggestion is that  we could link classic beige to skidata replic GMK set and make classic beige become a part of skidata. If skidata set hit the MOQ, then the classis beige don't need MOQ. Both  sets will be produced by GMK as a complete order.
ps: the alfha of classic beige is compatible with Reverse-Skidata Add-on Pack quite well.

No possibility of including the moogle kit with spacebar?

I'd buy 3 of those, but I guess this would make it even more difficult for the main set to hit MOQ.

Maybe that's a possibility with JT keycaps in the future!

I think it should not influence the number of sales of the complete set. The moogle kit is for people like me who have keycaps from a G81-1000 .
I don´t think someone will buy the complete set for 7 keys and a spacebar ...

[LechnerDE]

That's right but it will split up interest and in the end no kit will reach MOQ.

We have seen this with many GBs before, so I doubt Photekq will do that.

[asgeirtj]

I really don't understand why this set doesn't have R4 1,5x ctrl & alt.  Seems to me they would be popular?

Stripe doesn't need a credit card, you can use a debit card too if you have one.

How do I do this?

With mine, I just put in my card details. If it doesn't go through you'll have to call your bank and verify the transaction is yours.

For people who don't have cards, you can just buy one of those prepaid cards for $5.

So...
- Don't need a PP account
- Don't need any account
- Can use Debit or Credit or Pre-Paid Card

SIMPLE!

Let's get on this people, we need this to not only hit MOQ, but also 400 so we can get the 1800 support!!

Heads up before someone gets a prepaid card, it looks like only Visa, MasterCard, and American Express will work.

[Mattr567]

Is there a 2U shift key?

[NorrisB]

OMG!  After all this hype we're seriously at risk of not hitting moq?

[SL89]

Don't worry I'm sure we will hit MOQ. There are probably some resellers / merchants who will show up closer to the end. I know I am waiting myself, and will in all likelihood end up getting more then one set. The numbers almost always rally.

I guess it doesn't support Maestro, it states "incorrect card number" when I enter my debit card information :/

It seems I won't be able to participate unless PayPal is an option. Will this eventually be an option, because I don't want to get an RGBK set without this.

[sethk_]

PayPal is an option you have to pm him

I did sent a message regarding that, but I think that was just to gauge the need for PayPal, as in, if just a handful of people need PayPal, I won't bother with it.

Just placed an order, can't wait!

can someone explain why there is two sets of arrow keys?

[LechnerDE]

can someone explain why there is two sets of arrow keys?

One is Row 4 and one is Row 5 

[radio_killah]

can someone explain why there is two sets of arrow keys?

One set is row 5 like og cherry and one set is row 4 to accommodate the more modern sets which have the bottom 2 rows the same profile.

[64rky]

Edit: ^ What Radio said ^

can someone explain why there is two sets of arrow keys?

The second (bottom row) set is R5. Not sure what board layout that's for.

Winkeyless layouts that would use the rest of the R5 keys?

[NorrisB]

Whats the purpose of that 4th extra arrow key in the extra set?  Will the 3 keys in the main set support the OG cherry?

[ATXTider]

Looks like a 1u backspace key to me.

Ooo,  if only there was a R1 etc,  ctrl,  and alt,  as well,  that could sit on my 3700....

3700 top row keys would be sweet.

Selling a bunch of records on Tuesday.  I will be in on this as soon as I get the money! 

[trenzafeeds]

Feeling like this will go well with casual white LEDs behind it, really got my fingers crossed that I'll have the money in time to pick up a set!

I think it's so he can get you in on the group buy if stripe is the only thing standing between you and paying. At the end of the day, photek just wants this to happen, so everyone can have a kickass beige set. If you PHYSICALLY CANNOT pay by stripe, for whatever reason, then let him know, and maybe he can sort something out for you so you can get in on this.

I would love this set, sadly the price is astronomical for me, especially as I've just ordered a full, white, double-shot, ABS key set in the UK ISO layout, at less than a quarter of the price for this.

[Photekq]

The two sets cannot really be compared. Doubleshot doesn't mean that the quality and aesthetics come close to GMK keycaps.

Speaking of quality, no custom colors this time, right? We can keep our hopes up for higher quality than TA?

Indeed. Cody already confirmed that the caps from the GMK Hyperfuse GB, which didn't use custom colors either, have no quality issues

Hey Photekq, a new transaction showed up on my account today for $169.06. My original transaction (what should be the only one) was $168.35. Can you see what happened? I don't have enough in my account to cover this, so I'm in the red at the moment.

Edit: I'm #70.

[korrelate]

Ordered! Finally!

I know, but why would I pay an extra £100 for GMK versions, when I could replace the ABS' more than five times each time they get shiny, before they would be worth the extra dosh.

I'm assuming you're speaking of the ukkeycaps GB of Tai-Hao?
If so, Gmk classic beige would be: better quality, better printing, cherry profile, better keycaps selection.

Because of the feel of the keycaps. I don't know anybody who prefers flimsy OEM caps over thick GMK caps. On top of that I strongly prefer cherry profile for typing.

Of course this is personal preference. You should just try them yourself and then decide. You could always sell the set at cost right after you received them in case you don't love GMK

I know it's too late now, but why no 1.25u FN key? It's common (CM, Ducky, Leopold) and it's only one key, could have been thrown in with the extras.

Just use the 'Menu' Key, like folks do for all the other GMK sets.
