With the magnitude of this GB I'm amazed at how fast its all going.
GJ Elton!

Received mine! Awesome job!

berrymxblue · « **Reply #2102 on:** Tue, 05 November 2013, 13:11:08 »

Can't wait to receive my set!

thurst0n · « **Reply #2103 on:** Tue, 05 November 2013, 13:26:28 »

Can anyone tell me how these colors compare to the WASD colors? Perhaps pictures? :-)

I need to get some colored space bars that fit my board and wondering if any of the colors actually match or if I should just go with white since white matches everything.

elton5354 · « **Reply #2104 on:** Tue, 05 November 2013, 13:30:27 »

You missed my space bar group buy?

Oh, and I won't be shipping the rest until Thursday...sorry

I have space bars coming and I don't have sets. Pm me to discuss.

Elton will most likely want 2-3 months break after the space bars are delivered.

Did Elton ever say he is going to do a Round 2 in the future?

It's a lot of work to do a massive GB like this. Maybe somewhen else can make Round 2 happen - I don't think Elton would mind.

Elton can then comeback with Round 3 and extravagant colors

He mentioned that he wouldn't mind to do another GB after he cools off from the first GB. Its up to him though, but wow he is good with how he handles things, replies here etc etc etc, its like he is doing GB's for living.

Group buys are stressful, so I wouldn't be surprised if he took a year off. I'm just amazed that he's been as awesome with it as he has. He must work in logistics or something.

Yes, I've been MIA as I've been extremely busy with school and also some family stuff.

2nd This. I'm extremely pleased. Want to thank you Elton. Also these keys are extremely nice. My WPM is at least 100% of what it was before I got them

I'll try to snap some pics once I get them onto my majestouch

do_Og@n · « **Reply #2111 on:** Tue, 05 November 2013, 16:22:59 »

Having taken part in half a dozen GB's I have to say that Elton has ran the smoothest one so far.

I could only imagine the effort he's put into this and he has earned a large amount of respect from me because of it.

McWilloughby · « **Reply #2112 on:** Tue, 05 November 2013, 16:33:35 »

Anyone with a WASD sampler kit/keyset received theirs yet? I'm keen to see a comparison

I'll post my own when my set arrives if not.

If you are wondering if they match, I can tell you that they don't. The TH sets are very rich in color while the wasd keys are more pastel in color and also horrible in general.

I wouldn't say the WASD kits are horrible, pastel colours do have their place. I'm referring specifically to the red (which isn't pastel) but it's more due to the fact that I live in the UK so I need to find a matching ISO enter from somewhere

Might just end up getting white mods if the red match is bad and the white isn't though..

berrymxblue · « **Reply #2116 on:** Tue, 05 November 2013, 17:21:19 »

I think I like the red set the most, should have ordered more than one set of this.

The red will unfortunately match up pretty bad. The red cap from my sampler set is pretty much orange.

Galaxy · « **Reply #2119 on:** Tue, 05 November 2013, 19:00:17 »

My caps were delivered as well! Thank you Elton for all your efforts and for running such a smooth group buy.

Haven't opened any of the bags yet but they look great, I'll post a pic when I get them on one of my boards.

jabar · « **Reply #2120 on:** Tue, 05 November 2013, 19:40:15 »

Holy **** these guys have SP beat (on DCS) when it comes to quality! I was worried that the second shot was too thin so that the white first shot would show through (hence me not ordering Green), but damn they are Good Quality.

Anyone want to sell me an extra 6.25 Tai Hai spacebar or 4? I missed that GB not paying attention.

xpistalpetex · « **Reply #2121 on:** Tue, 05 November 2013, 19:59:05 »

salmo · « **Reply #2122 on:** Tue, 05 November 2013, 21:15:42 »

Got my sets and they're awesome. I mean seriously, what a great deal. Can't wait until the spacebars arrive.

Elton has really done an amazing job putting all this together and doing all the work to get this into our mailboxes.

If there is another round with more colors you can count me in. I'd like to see purple, orange, and a dark grey or charcoal,.... [mumbles endless list of colors].

You can't really go wrong at this price.

And the fact that they actually seem pretty decent keycaps is a huge bonus on top!

Can't wait for mine!!!

Actually, I can wait - lotsa practice waiting for stuff coming from O/S.

Very nice! After review, I will not be also doing this. It just seems redundant and silly at this point. :D

they look very nice but backlight is more likely off or it's maybe only bad picture but it doesn't set positive.
