im able to grab some of them, not sure how many and how much, just show your interest :)
-
I am interested in a couple.
- Ron I samwisekoi
-
Interested.
-
I will take 2 or 3 as well.
-
I'd be interested in one or two.
-
I'd be in for one
-
I'd be in for one for sure, maybe two depending on price!
-
the crowd will go wild if you can get them in different colours.
-
Maybe i buy 1 or 2
-
In for 1-3
-
It will moslty depend on the price of other cases available for the GH60, but I could be interested for 1. Let's say like 50% chance ;D

I'm not sure how much these plastic cases will be, but let's just say $20. The other cases (that I know about) that are being designed for the GH60 are all aluminum and estimated to be in the $150+ range. Some probably closer to $200-250. Even the basic aluminum Poker/Pure cases by Vortex, imsto, treble318, and oneproduct have all been about $100. Does that influence your decision at all?
-
I would buy one or two.
-
im interested in one or 2 depending on how cheap. would just give me an excuse to get more than 1 GH60 when/if the group buy comes up. and maybe experiment with painting and stabilizing using sugru
-
Yep! Ill take 4.
-
1 or 2 if they are quite cheap
probably 5-6 with the gh60 coming around.
-
2 or 3 (depends on your pricing).
Please!!!
8-)
-
Perhaps 2
-
in for 12 :D
-
2 depending on the final price :)
-
What are the chances of different colour options?
-
I would probably take a couple as well.
-
I will take 2 please. Would be interesting if there were other colors but I am skeptical that there would be.

**********update*********
After some dealing between KBC and KBH(keyboard hell, a local keyboard store in Hong Kong), I'm able to grab around 100 cases. And I'll provide white poker case!(EXCLUSIVE) and black as well. The price is still unknown. I'll keep you folks informed.

I'll take one in white, assuming it's not like the white eggshell case that the LE Race came in. It'll chip and deteriorate if its like that one :(
I'm sorry to inform you that the case is still like the race le case..
I appreciate the honesty tinlong :)

I'll take a white one as well. Just need to make sure to take good care of it. Maybe two depending on price.

White poker case? I'm in, depending on the price.
-
Two blacks for me please.
-
I am interested in one, depending on price and shipping costs.
-
dibs on white ;D
-
I'd be interested in a white one...
-
Depends on price + shipping
-
Lets turn this into a GB :D
-
I'd probably be in for some depending on colors.
-
mine in black, please, 2.

**********update**********
Due to the amount of my order is so little (150 cases), so this will take some time for us to get those cases. Sorry about that.

Is there a MOQ? What number were they looking for, because with the GH60 on the horizon, I would imagine that these will be in high demand soon.
-
I could raise up my order but a price would help - even if approximated ...

no MOQ. But they will do it very quickly if our orders is ten times than that......
-
I think some people would be interested in getting these for the GH60. The GH60-specific cases will be very expensive, so without them GH60 is just for Poker owners, and not everybody has one or wants to take its case and throw away the PCB.
-
I would be in for 2 black and also 2 white if the white are molded white. Painted cases would not interest me.

... I'm able to grab around 100 cases. And I'll provide white poker case!(EXCLUSIVE) and black as well. The price is still unknown...
Why 10 times more now? Sorry, it wasn't 100?
-
i'm in for one black ( pretty sure ) and one white ( depends on price )
-

i just find that im able to grab 1000+ cases.
-

Yikes!
Any price point mentioned, because I think that's one of the biggest hold ups in people ordering more.
-
Depending on the price, I will be in for a white and a black
-
If the profit margin were attractive for a vendor, I'm sure one of the vendors here might be willing to purchase such a quantity for resale. Especially with the DIY projects upcoming, including the GH60, there will be a market for that quantity.
-
I will take a couple blacks depending on price.
-
I'm interested for at least one black and maybe one white. (depending on prices)
-
I'm interested in 1-4 depending on price, and when they will be for sale/available.
-
i am interested in a white one.
-
interested
-
I'll take white one if I can afford.
-
I would take one in white.
-

do you know what the price will be?
-
So, there is any hope or we are just dreaming?
-
I was excited about white, but then not if it's painted. Why? If making an order direct from factory they can't have injection mold in the desired color?

the case I will be ordered is new old stock.
By the way, no reply yet.
-
I'll take a white but I'm still waiting to get my hands on an aluminum
-
I'm in for black one. If price is right maybe another one in white.
-
Interested in two - white and black.
-
One white here.
-
I'd be interested in 2 black ones if this works out.
-
I'd go for ying-yang if this ever happens :D
-
I'd be interested in one white case.
-
Two blacks if we can do $20 each. I'd probably sand and spray them :D
-
Interested.
-
any word on the price tin?
-
no update yet... sorry guys..
-
I am in with one molded in white, not painted. Please keep us posted.

I'm pretty sure the white cases are painted.
-
That would be a shame :( . The one we have on hand can always be painted, thus why bother buying a new one painted, maybe a black one as a backup, in case the world end comes :D .

It's just how they come - http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=40909.msg816246#msg816246
-
Ok, so I'm in for a black one instead, if that matters. Or maybe 2:D
-
Count me in for one in black!
-
In for 2-4, color doesn't matter.
-
You want this case. You need this case.
You are part of the GH60 group buy, here: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=41464.0
-
Oh, finally I found this thread again! Interested in at least one case if this will happen. Maybe a few more depending on if my friends are interested in the GH60 or not.
-
man, there is going to be a flood of interest in this case now that the GH60 GB started, hell i now need 3 of these if that will be possible
i guess the interest has already measured by tinlong, it sounds like we are just all in suspense.
-
Ok then put me down for ONE BLACK case. Thanks.
-
I'd be interested in picking up one black case. Thanks!
-
OOOOO
I'll take a few white and a black or two.
-
now that GH60 is starting , i may aswell put interest for 1 case, will help keep things within a reasonable budget :)
-
Sorry, no longer interested. Please don't count me :P
-
I would be interested for one white ,too.
-
I'd get one for a GH60.
-
Interested, so I'll pounce on one if you ever get a reply from them xD.
-
I would get 4 blacks depending on the price.
-
i would get 1 or 2. with GH60 group buy started you will sell a ton if these.
-
original poker case being a plastic one? i might be selling one if someone wants
-
Interested, probably in a white one.
Hopefully it makes a cheap resting place for a GH60 board until I save up for a fancy aluminium one.
-

I am just hoping the white paint which is used it kind of metallic, so it looks like an aluminium case.
Can live luxury without the price tag :P
-
Also interested for whenever this happens.
-
any news on this?
I think we could hit 400 on the MOQ with the GH60 out.
-
I'm in for at least 2
-
Gonna need 2, GH60!
-
I'm in for 2. One white. One black.
Any status updates on this?
-
GH60, interested!
-
registering my interest, in for two or three depending on when it all happens.
-
GH 60 put this ic/gb on trouble.
-
I would be interested in one.
-
count me in for one please
-
interested
-
GH 60 put this ic/gb on trouble.
I didn't get this. If anything the GH60 GB will make this interest check a lot more solid. Far from everyone will be paying hundreds of dollars for aluminum cases/trays.

We have Vortex scared now, that our little DIY project is going to cut into their sales. So why would they want to provide inexpensive housings for what they consider a competing product line?
-
WHITE IS MINE!! :D
BUT ANY COLOR INTERESTED. I WOULD GET 2.
-
Damn, who told them? Or do they have eyes here?
-

I'm sure they lurk.

i wouldve given them my business but, oh right, they stopped making pokers. FOOLS! lol
-
Interested - but qty depends on price.
The wood / aluminum cases are too heavy for my liking.
-

vortex cuts their own sales with sub quality products and low stock. i would never have ventured into building my own boards (something i really like doing now) if they had made better boards that were available for someone with a hole burning in his wallet.
-
GH 60 put this ic/gb on trouble.
What do you mean? If anything, their sale for these cases should increase. I would integrate this plastic case as a default with the GH60 GB, but we have no way of getting them.

I think they want to sell keyboards,not cases.If they give us cases they are most likely reducing the amount of their upcoming 60% boards they could potentially sell.Sorry for my bad English,I hope it makes sense :)

this is all speculation and not based on fact, until we hear something from Vortex or Tinlong

I am no longer interested btw.

In that case, I yield the floor to the Vulcan who clearly did a mind meld on Tinlong. ;-)

I'm too busy to enjoy the time with my gf. So I haven't posted much on this thread. I finally managed to get some time to give an update. (During pooping). This GB won't be happened because of GH60.
-

wow, sad.
-
dead. i could have used these cases because of the GH60.
-
That sucks. It's weird, but it sucks.

-
dang, it really sucks. Then, I will carve a wood block to make a wooden case.
-
Darn :(
-
why?:(
-
Disappointing. I don't know the reasons for isolating the GH60 project as being the excuse for lack of fulfilment for this IC, but even if there were only 20 cases available, I'm sure they would find 20 happy homes.
-

It's cause the GH60 project directly competes with their business.

^This.
Personally, I've accumulated two Poker PCBs and stainless steel backplates, so I need some sort of case to make these into functional keyboards. This option looked like the cheapest one on offer, guess I'll have to scout the classifieds to see if anyone is selling off their used cases.
-
If there were 33 cases available, they would never leave Hong Kong. Ahahahahaha!
:D
GH60 is stated as the reason, because it IS the reason. What other keyboard are you gonna put in this case, a Pure Pro or Tex Beetle?
-
We should just close this thread if its not happening. No need to be reminded of Vortex's jealousy at its own incompetency at building keyboards every time I get on this site.
-
And then tally now much money we give to Lego instead (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=40251.msg797333#msg797333). ;D

Man, am I the only one here with a bad feeling about all this ???

Yes, sorry.
He started the IC saying he would be able to sell a "few" cases, then 100, and then later he said that 150 was kinda too low.
I'm new in GH and I don't wanna be rude but it's weird, IMHO ...
