[GB] GMK Fro.Yo:(FIN) - [PICTURE TIME]
« on: Fri, 23 August 2019, 20:53:21 »



     
Attention, All You Beautiful People, Spring of 2020 is Quickly Approaching!

- The time of HOT, HUMID, and VIBRANT Sunny days.  And with that heavy heat, comes the foods that never taste as sweet as they do in these coming months.

- Second, only to the blessing that is watermelon, is the sweet, frosty, and creamy delight known as [Generic Brand] Frozen Yogurt.  The soft, subtle, and satisfying frozen dairy treat.


     Can you feel the rush of cool air as you enter the shop?

     Can you taste the bright, sweet and tangy toppings?

     Can you feel the wallet-shearing-pain of heading to the cashier to weigh your 4.8kg Cup of Perfection that you spent 36 minutes carefully piling as many crushed Kit-Kats onto as possible?

     It's enough to make your sweet tooth tingle right now...




This is

Please take all renders with that open perception. Further clarification will come if samples are obtainable and more diversity in renders is presented. :)

Update: January 21st, 2020

Okay I know everyone has been wondering about Fro.Yo so here is where we are at.

After Fro.Yo finished there were some communication issues and finalization of everything took much longer than I initially expected.  This is the first time I have ever ran a big buy within my single-man business and storefront and I was worried about doing everything absolutely correct for obvious reasons.

It’s now January and to be as translucent as I can be, I sat on different issues with shipping and internal business specifics that shouldn’t have been sat on for the length they did. Everything has now been finalized, invoices and extras have been paid for and GMK should be getting me Color samples in 2-3 weeks. 

Assuming all goes well in these Samples and the congestion GMK is surly dealing with right now isn’t too grand, I can’t give a Shipping date of any sooner than roughly May 2020.



I’ve learned an incredible amount from this buy and I don’t know if I’ll be doing more Keyset Gbs in the future but if I do I know that I will be infinitely more comfortable and confident in the process.

Almost all of the delays have been directly in-fault due to something on my end specifically. All external proxy vendors have been equally incredibly patient and tolerant of my ignorance during this GB and no frustration should be put on them in any way.



Anyone wishing to receive a refund from Kingly-Keys please contact me directly on Discord: @The_Royal#3000 and we can deal with that immediately.

 Thank you to everyone for there patience and I hope to keep bringing you guys continually better and better products, experiences, and support within our community and our exciting hobby.

LATEST UPDATES:
(click “more” for previous updates)

Update - August 19th, 2020:

Per Gabriele@GMK,

Quote
Yes, we are still on track [For First Week oF September Shipping]. We might even be able to get it out on Friday, August 28th.

I assume sets will reach CandyKeys first but I’m not sure. They may send some or all of my sets (Kingly-Keys) first since I am the GB origin.

In Any case, after sets arrive to me it should only take me a few days to get them all out with the lower amount.

More

GMK Fro.Yo
2-Week Update Numbers Complete with Proxies:

Base: *68 (250 MOQ)

40's: *24  (150 MOQ)

Numpad: *18(100 MOQ)

Spacebars & Int: *24 (100 MOQ)

*(Not Including Extras)

No not bad on the base kit, but not great.  Slow start but Im very confident at least the Base kit will hit that GB mark come Sept. 10th.
Im going to be putting in a lot of effort on the Promotional Front.  But not to the spamming extent.  Either people will buy, or it just wont make it this time.

LETS MAKE THIS LAST 2 WEEKS A GOOD ONE GUYS!  :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:



Update May 15th, 2020:

• Samples Arrived

• Colors, Approved!





Update June 22nd, 2020:

I received A Response Back From Gabriele of GMK This Morning to a request for estimate on production completion.

Quote From Email:
Quote
I regret to say that this week we are not able to give you a time frame (estimated week of delivery) yet. I expect to do so in 2 weeks.

 

To give you an explanation:

 

We are experiencing delays from our material supplier. Due to Covid-19 they were closed and are now delayed with shipping out material to their customers.

So all our shipments are delayed.

 

We sincerely regret these circumstances and all the inconveniences, frustration this causes for all parties involved.

Be assured, we are trying our best to move it along as fast and as best as possible.

 

Thank you for your understanding and patience.

 

Best,

Gabriele

So give or take 2weeks till we get a date. But I feel excited on this response cause that means we are right in line for our fulfillment!

Hate that it’s been so long. Thank you to everyone who has remained so patient together.



Update July 14th, 2020:

Got an email this morning from GMK. I’ve seen a lot of sets have a big setback and unfortunately Fro.Yo is among that group.

Our official queued shipping date from GMK is all kits will be shipped out of the factory (given no further (COVID 19) delays):

September 4th, 2020

So not as soon as expected but at least we have an official date now. Almost an exact 1 Year turn-around.

Couldn’t agree more - pulled the trigger last night. The more I looked, the more I started digging it. Can imagine it looking great and picking up colors from a variety of board colors.

Hope it picks up some steam - jump on in folks.

Ill have an official big update on numbers this Friday or Saturday but I do have great news! For the Base Kit anyway.

My Store Numbers went from 24 to 129 Base Kit Orders!!!

So that brings us to a total of 178 Base Kits (not including extras)!

Which is great. Base Kit should have no problem hitting MOQ. But Child kits may not make it unfortunately :(

It's a crazy busy month for GMK GBs, with 7 GMK sets (10 if you count alpha kits/mod kits and the M_ss_ng Keys adapter) all running, so it can be tough for GBs. I'm planning on hopping in, but haven't hopped in this yet, myself, to give my wallet a little breather, so I feel this.

GMK Fro.Yo
Final-Week Update On Numbers Complete with Proxies:

Base: *221 (250 MOQ)

40's: *25  (150 MOQ) (RIP 40’s)

Numpad: *40(100 MOQ)

Spacebars & Int: *36 (100 MOQ)

*(Not Including Extras)

After a rocky start, the Base Kit is looking just fine for MOQ! With extras we are a-okay! Child kits still are in a bit of a rough area but that’s just how it sometimes.

So happy to at least get a little bit of Fro.Yo into production :)

Thank you so much to those who have supported this set in the midst of the **chaos** of keysets this month.

It’s been one for the record books for sure.

Aint that the truth! lol

I wanted to really push this before it all started...but this is my first GB and I decided I just wanted to "test" the waters of the process.

It says a lot about the set that the base is doing pretty decent with almost zero advertising!

If I was doing this for profit I would defiantly be pushing it a lot harder.  But that's not what its all about! :)

ZFRONTIER will be open for a few more days since they joined later than CandyKeys and I.

So sometime next week I’ll have all the final tally’s. I still have quite a few order adjustments and cancellations that keep coming in.

Sorry for the delay. The Fro.Yo Chat within the 40% Discord is the best place to see the fastest updates:

Update: January 21st, 2020

Okay I know everyone has been wondering about Fro.Yo so here is where we are at.

After Fro.Yo finished there were some communication issues and finalization of everything took much longer than I initially expected.  This is the first time I have ever ran a big buy within my single-man business and storefront and I was worried about doing everything absolutely correct for obvious reasons.

It’s now January and to be as translucent as I can be, I sat on different issues with shipping and internal business specifics that shouldn’t have been sat on for the length they did. Everything has now been finalized, invoices and extras have been paid for and GMK should be getting me Color samples in 2-3 weeks. 

Assuming all goes well in these Samples and the congestion GMK is surly dealing with right now isn’t too grand, I can’t give a Shipping date of any sooner than roughly May 2020.



I’ve learned an incredible amount from this buy and I don’t know if I’ll be doing more Keyset Gbs in the future but if I do I know that I will be infinitely more comfortable and confident in the process.

Almost all of the delays have been directly in-fault due to something on my end specifically. All external proxy vendors have been equally incredibly patient and tolerant of my ignorance during this GB and no frustration should be put on them in any way.



Anyone wishing to receive a refund from Kingly-Keys please contact me directly on Discord: @The_Royal#3000 and we can deal with that immediately.

 Thank you to everyone for there patience and I hope to keep bringing you guys continually better and better products, experiences, and support within our community and our exciting hobby.

I Emailed GMK to check on the status.  We should be getting approval evaluation on samples in a week or two.  :thumb:
