[SHIPPED] Tai Hao 110 Coloured DS Set GB

[tgujay]

I had low hopes for these caps, so all these posts had better stop because they're building them up.  They just look killer.  Now only if I could remember what colors I ordered...

Not enough.

Just letting some of you know that I'm having the first 100 down the list picked up by my local PO on Tuesday.  I would do Monday, but they only pick up from 12pm-5pm and I'll be busy that day.

Next pick up will maybe be Thursday or Friday.  Yeah, I think this will take a bit long than a week I guesstimated.  Maybe 1.5 weeks to ship them all out, so some time next week.

This.  Breaking down an entire pallet of caps and shipping it out is quite the job.  Thanks again for all the work buddy.  Also, its nice to know that the spacebar gb will be much smaller 

[LechnerDE]

Printed about 90 labels today.. Took longer than I thought it would. Even packing boxes seemed easier

It's meeeeeeee on the label
Anyways good job elton, everyone loves you :)

First post well spent  :p

Welcome to Geekhack!

The 7x spacebar, after cutting alps mount, is not mountable at all.
It seems like the stem of the spacebar is not properly aligned with standard 7x spacebar. 
The stem of the spacebar is about 1-2mm away from keyboard mount.

Wow, that sucks.

The 7x spacebar was the only reason we actually agreed on adding 1,5 mods and increase the set price 2$ and now we actually can't use these extra keys properly.

But actually I am not really mad. At these prices there is no complaining 

But we should be aware of this issue if there is another GB with Tai Hao.

[Defying]

Hopefully that's not an issue with the 6.25x sized spacebar...

[tgujay]

Hopefully that's not an issue with the 6.25x sized spacebar...

The one that doesn't exist yet?

You know there was a GB for a 6.25x spacebar.

But like Defying said, I really hope the 6.25 spacebars don't have the same problem. That would be a complete waste

[rowdy]

Now those that ordered sets BECAUSE they had a 7x space bar are feeling the same as those who did not order because there was NO 6.25x space bar.

Wonder if anyone should do an IC for matching 7x space bars?  Tai Hao might come to the party if they realise that the space bars cannot be used and enough people want them.

[Photoelectric]

Doh.  Well, at worst, you can buy a 7x spacebar from Signature Plastics directly, even if the color/profile won't match--could try to make it work.  I got one for my LZ-GH, since I only have ANSI sets.

[CPTBadAss]

Well I just received them. Came in a skid.... They just dropped it on my front porch lol

LMAO A pallet of caps?? That's insane!

You guys want pics?

That's amazing Halvy rofl.

[esoomenona]

since I only have ANSI sets.

84/86 key winkeyless layouts are still considered ANSI. I know what you mean when you say it, but technicality and such. You mean you only had 87 key ANSI or winkey sets.

[Photoelectric]

Ah, thanks for the clarification.  I thought ANSI meant 1.25 mods.

[elton5354]

The 6.25x space bar shouldn't be a problem since it's a copy of the EK's one.

That's very unfortunate with the 7x space bar. I should've asked for the dimensions first. I assumed that the size of them were universal. Not sure what I can do at this point.

well now we know for future GB's we wont include 1.5, x1 and x7 mods keep it simple 1.25 layout with the x6.25 space bar, also we don't need to try and get that off center stepped capslock

Got my keycaps today!

A big two thumbs up to Elton, great guy, thanks dude.

I'll post some photos tomorrow for all to see

Already?  Yikes!  Mine are probably still 2 or 3 weeks away.

[elton5354]

He picked it up. I still haven't packed yours yet.

Just packed another 100 today..



I'll try to print all the labels for them tomorrow and ship them on Thursday.

Then the beginning of the next 100 batch..

[rowdy]

That's cool, I wasn't complaining

Plenty of time!

[Halvar]

Dat wall of caps.   

Any known sorting problems so far with sets that Ontarians already have,, like missing keycaps/duplicates?

+1, nice wall. time to build a fort?

been counting the caps at work, no missing caps! I did find a single strand of curly, dark hair on the inside of the 7x space bar but that didn't bother me too much 

no screens yet as I am working atm... sort of, lol.

So glad they added that in. Tai Hai really going above and beyond.

Looks like Elton decided to swim in key caps after all.

The caps come pre-sorted by Tai Hao--it'll be difficult and very time consuming for one person to determine if one in a dozen sets has a missing cap.

That's exactly why I didn't ask anyone if one in a dozen sets has a missing cap.

Is there a list of users whose orders you have already packed/shipped somewhere?

[pr0ximity]

I believe you'll get a notification by email when your shipping label is printed?

Hopefully my caps will arrive tommorow. Don't know how the crappy post manages to be so slow sometimes.

That's pretty fast considering the previous 100 boxes were picked up yesterday afternoon.

[genericsauce]

I guess it's just fun to rag on the canada post. Americans have overnight shipping and cool **** like that but it takes 2 days for the post to get something 5 hours away.

[elton5354]

Yeah..but we do have that.  Priority (1 day) and Xpresspost (2 days), but those cost a lot more..

The one I used was regular post  (or expedited for PayPal) which is 3-7 days depending where in CA.

[genericsauce]

True but I mean like amazon with there free overnight shipping and not something that costs crazy amounts of money. Anyways can't wait to see what these caps look like in person

Enjoy your fast shipping - it's going to take 2 to 3 weeks for mine to reach Australia.

@Canadians:

PICS PLEASE! / DES IMAGES S'IL VOUS PLAIT!

Canada Post estimates international to be 4-6 weeks...I hope it's much faster than that though.  Holiday rush is near...

So long as customs doesn't hear the rumour that all these key caps are actually going to be crushed and snorted.

[elton5354]

USA is actually 5~8 days

[meeekus]

Damn I just missed the cutoff for the latest pack.

[osxoep]

Why did I order so late?

[legodt]

Wow, only 8 days? That is top tier!

Kind of unrelated, but where should I buy the appropriate spacebar for my CM Quickfire Pro? I do not know the form factor, but the spacebar sold on WASD keyboards is listed as longer than what I measured my own spacebar at.

[elton5354]

Did you missed my group buy for Tai Hao 6.25x space bars?

[genericsauce]

Gah Canada post musta read what I posted cause now they are saying they won't be here till the 4th :/ .

[xpistalpetex]

i think the spacebar for the quickfire rapid pro is 6.0x not 6.25
