[MechSupply.co.uk] DSA Royal Navy Double-Shot Keycaps

[UKKeycaps]

Welcome to the official discussion thread for the DSA Royal Navy group-buy!

DSA profile double-shot keycaps available to UK and European buyers without the worry of insane shipping prices or import tax/customs fees!

ISO-UK keys included in base alphas and mods so you don't need to pay an obscene amount for an ISO-UK board.

Lots of child deals available for specialist layouts!

Here is a render of the keyset:




Purchase a set here!

[chuckdee]

Can you post the composition of the non-standard?  I think I know what the keys are from the pictures, but I just wanted to be sure.

[Zambumon]

Can you post the composition of the non-standard?  I think I know what the keys are from the pictures, but I just wanted to be sure.

1U backspace, 7U spacebar

1.75U stepped caps lock, 1.75U stepped control, 1.75U control, 1.5U Back space, 2.25U Shift, 1.75U shift, 1U FN

1.5U Ctrl (2x), 1.5U Alt (2x), 1.25U caps, 1U super (2x), 1U meta, 1U anchor (2x)

[maximm]

What happens if one MOQ is not hit? Are the other kits sent? I want to make sure i get all my kits, i dont want to get stuck with a set missing nordics or non standard.

[daveliney]

The set images show a tiny circumference and asterisk and upside-down (IMO) single and double quotes, but the renders show them large and right way up. Which is correct?

Thanks!  And was I off!  Glad I asked!

[grumbly]

Is the Ergodox set short by 2 x 1.5U? The infinity needs 12off and the layout is showing 10. Please confirm intent, since to make this up with another set makes it a little uneconomic.

[B1G_B1RD]

I just bought a leopold. The spacebar stabilizers are closer together. Will this fit?

[turbomartini]

What happens if I order the number pad set but it doesn't reach the 50 Minimum order Quantity

[My_Thoughts]

What happens if I order the number pad set but it doesn't reach the 50 Minimum order Quantity

From the /mk thread, posted by /u/UKKeycaps

"The base set and modifier sets need to hit MOQ for this group-buy to go ahead. If someone purchases a set and the group-buy goes ahead but one of their child deal options does not reach MOQ, they will be refunded and notified. If they wish to have the whole order refunded then that is no problem and they will be refunded in full."

Alright, thank you! Let's hope the numpad set reaches the MOQ.

[PriusProblems]

I'm in! Really hoping that the Non-Standard set reaches MOQ! If it doesn't I will be willing to purchase a few extra sets to make it tip, and hopefully a few other Non-Standard buyers will be willing to as well.

[My_Thoughts]

There are some renders here:

I assume the backspace homing key is 1.75x to replace caps lock?

Thanks

Very impressive!

[Felion]

Very nice kit! Ordered!

[UKKeycaps]

Thanks for all the support guys

MOQ for base and mods has been hit, so this will be going ahead 100%. I'm sure the rest of the kits will hit MOQ soon enough

What is the size of the backspace key in the homing pack?

[UKKeycaps]

What is the size of the backspace key in the homing pack?

1.75U, it is used for the Colemak layout.

Perfect thanks.  Wanted to check before I ordered

[PriusProblems]

Bu-dump.

Really want that Non Standard kit. 30 more to go though...

Novelties would be nice too, but the MOQ for those is pretty massive.

[MandrewDavis]

Is there usually a spike in people joining these groupbuys after paydays at the end of the month or towards the closing date? I really want the novelties and nonstandard kits to happen.

[seville57]

I also want the Novelties and I need the Numpad kit but the MOQ for this kit is for massive.

[UKKeycaps]

Chinese vendor has over 100 orders taken for this GB, not sure which packs that includes though. I will make a push for this GB mid-way though and also near the end and I'm sure MOQs will be hit.

Edit - Also, if you guys want to see the numbers grow, you may want to subtly mention the keyset around Geekhack, or put a banner in your sig. I'm not really allowed to post about commercial stuff outside my own sub-forum

[ninnysquat]

This might be a dumb question but can we participate if we are in the U.S.??

Really like this set and want to get in on this. Love the theme!

[nickle3246]

This might be a dumb question but can we participate if we are in the U.S.??

Shipping is £6.50 to the US, apparently

[UKKeycaps]

Definitely! I ship worldwide for a flat rate of £6.50

[morkha]

I would love this set but only with the novelty keys.
Therefore I will have to wait until the last moment because without them I don't need the rest.

[nickle3246]

You can cancel your whole order if anything you ordered didn't reach MOQ

[izilla]

Just ordered, what are the colors looks like the ErgoDox set won't make it but since they are blank I can order them from SP (assuming SP because they are the only ones I know of doing DSA profile).

[seville57]

Just finish my order, as all MOQs for the kits I wanted has been reached.

[KONATAonPC]

It slightly bugs me how a Royal Navy themed keyset is in US layout :v

I know it's because those keyboards are more common but still 

[nickle3246]

But it's not? Iso enter key and UK keys are included in the base set as well

There is also a Euro Pack with Nordic, German layout.

[omgthisnoise]

Has SP fixed their issues with DSA? I want to buy a set but when I'm looking at the last Granite drop I have my doubts.

[UKKeycaps]

I haven't heard of any issues with ABS DSA. Apparently there's some warping with PBT, but this set is ABS

[maximm]

How did it go for the international kit?

[DtEarth]

I was wondering that too with the homing kit? I'm sure we'll find out when emails are sent out.

[My_Thoughts]

I was sent an email today.  Order is being checked, Chinese buyer needs to give final numbers and then people who ordered kits that did not tip will get emails with options.  All seems to be happening nicely

[DtEarth]

Yep. Just got my email too. Ergodox didn't hit MOQ but still being produced, thanks MechSupply for fronting the cost, at additional charge.  Looks like the France kit didn't make it. The Euro kits have the option to pay more if people want it produced.

[nickle3246]

Not sure I even want this anymore after what they did...

[MandrewDavis]

I was originally going to put these on an Atreus, but I may go in a different direction. If I add the modifiers and numpad kit to my order will it be at the original GB price or the leftovers price?

[potatobot]

i want them!!! dafuq. but abs lol

ill stick with my granite

[japanitrat]

Is there an update on the current schedule? The website is saying "Placing order" for quite some time now and it's not mentioned on PMKs keycap status page, so "September 18" seems like a hard date to hit.

[UKKeycaps]

Keyset is booked into SP schedule. If there's any changes to the likely date of shipping I will update all customers.

[japanitrat]

Gotya 
Thanks for the update

[Rhym]

Number of leftover sets remaining:

Base = 50
Modifers = 50
Num-Pad = 21
Novelties = 31
Non-Standard = 19
Planck = SOLD OUT!
Ergodox = SOLD OUT!
Euro = SOLD OUT!
Homing = SOLD OUT!

This means the Euro set never made MOQ? Or it is literally sold out?

I don't really know why I'm asking that What I really want to know if its still possible to get the Euro set as that is kinda a dealbreaker if not.

The Euro kit didn't meet MOQ, however I believe the people who got the Euro kit during the GB period were given the option of paying a little bit more to get the set made anyway. I don't know how many people took that route, but probably at least a few.

I did.  I think it was only an extra £5.  Kind of makes me think for smaller group buys the tip point should be set to 10 and then lower the price from there

[japanitrat]

Seems like the shipping date is outdated? On PMK it says that completion date is 9/30 ...

[UKKeycaps]

Yup, seems like it'll be shipping in early October, I'll be updating the shipping estimates and sending an email round to buyers soon!

[UKKeycaps]

I have sent around an update email to all customers!

New shipping date is 10th of October, further delays unlikely

I didn't get an email! Not a complaint, just a heads-up.

[chuckdee]

^ I didn't either.  But I purchased from the site after the GB.  Not sure if that was the reason.

[Oblotzky]

Just purchased Base + Mods + Num + Nov. The lack of import taxes was definitely a factor in this totally-not-an-impulse buy

Though I must say the Novelty set is a bit stale compared to the likes of Nantucket Selectric, but I do love me some more red! Basically a 16gbp enter key I guess  )

[UKKeycaps]

I will step-up the novelty game for the next group-buy

[Happyham]

so... I bought this set with the intention of doing a TKL plus a Num pad... but i'm looking at these 75% and 68 key layouts and I really am thinking that is going to be the board for me. By any chance did anyone purchase additional non-standard kits they'd be willing to sell?

DSA is uniform profile so chances are you will be able to fit your board just fine, unless there's any specific keys missing? If you leave a picture or KLE layout of the board you're trying to fit it might be better.

[johntron25]

I just realized that i did not buy modifiers...If anyone would like to sell theirs, please let me know

So the big things I'll need for the 68 key board i want (https://www.massdrop.com/buy/red-scarf-ii-68-key-custom-keyboard-kit) are a 1.75u shift key and 1u Ctrl, Alt, and Meta/Super keys. Below is the Layout for reference.

[nickle3246]

Completion pushed back from "9/30" to "early October", means shipping will be delayed a few days more?

I have some extra bits coming... I have got the Base, Modifier, Novelty and Non standard set coming to make one full TKL set... so there will be plently of leftover keys including the Ansi layout stuff...

[Happyham]

Cool once you finish your board let me know what you have left over and we can work out the details

[wholypantalones]

New shipping date is 10th of October, further delays unlikely

Since it's the middle of October I'm guessing we're shooting for late October now?

[Calcifar]

Is it too late to jump onto this Group buy ? if not, how can I join ?

[UKKeycaps]

Sorry! All sets sold out. If I have any spare at the end of shipping I might auction it with a few other goodies.

Shipping will start on the 7th of November without delay (unless of course there is some major delay )

I will have teaser images of the actual keycaps for you all by the end of the week. Production is pretty much done, SP is checking and packing.

Awesome! Mods are darker than I expected, I like it!

These are actually in the UK, just in customs currently. I will need to be notified, pay the customs charge and then I'll get my hands on them. Just a little more patience required.

Of course if your patience has run out, refunds are still available!

It is unfortunate, but understandable, that you don't have control of the entire supply chain, so depend on others, and sometimes their estimates are not spot on.  But you've been communicative at every step of the way, and I have no trepidation that I won't receive it, so this has been a good buy for me.

Is it held by CCL? I have had more luck just ringing them directly and giving them the tracking reference number, they will then give you the payment ref and amounts to pay, then you can go to the website and pay it directly, their customs payment slips routinely take 1 week or more to get to me, and I am too impatient for that.

[GreyAmbience]

I can't wait anymore! These are going to look aaaaaamazing

For those who didn't get the email:

DSA Royal Navy Shipping Update 3 - The Final Stretch!
The image above is an image of DSA Royal Navy in natural light. Unfortunately the nature of this email is to inform of a further delay to the shipping of the keysets.

Signature Plastics have sent all the keycaps to MechSupply as 6 seperate consignments, 3 of these cosignments have arrived and therefore real images of the keyset can be showcased. However, shipping cannot begin until the reamining 3 boxes arrive. These packages are being held currently in UK customs, pending review of paperwork which has been submitted. Therefore the exact date of shipping cannot be estimated due it depending on how fast customs processes the remaining packages. A rough estimation of 2 weeks from this date is appropriate.
Therefore the new estimated date for the start of shipping is 28th of November 2016. Apologies for the delay in shipping of this group-buy and for any inconvenience caused. I appreciate there have been numerous delays to this group-buy, however all have been out of the control of MechSupply. If you would like to cancel your order and receive a refund, this is still a possibility. Reply to this email if you have any questions or queries regarding the group-buy.

A few more points for you all:

• There will be no more delays, the keysets are 100% guaranteed to ship on or before the date stated on the product page (therefore they'll arrive in November for most customers)
• It seems there will be a few sets left, these will be sold as special edition sets, with a few extra goodies/keys/bits thrown in
  
• More high-res pics to come

Good, i don't speak for idiots, read the previous post and grasp the context before you reply.

Always check the group-buy status page for the most recent update.

The first load of packages have gone out today. Currently 26% of all orders have shipped.

Tracking info emails are not auto-matic. If you require tracking please wait until 4th Dec to request.

All orders should be shipped by 12th Dec.

EDIT: Please note most orders shipped so far have been EU and UK, if you are outside the EU do not expect your package to arrive tomorrow!

I did.   Perhaps you should check what you're trying to say. And perhaps point that finger at yourself.

It's not like we've all been waiting since early October or anything, but yeah shipping out Freedomland orders would be great.

Sets at the postoffice now, gonna pick up my sets tomorrow.

So are 40% of us, delays are inherent when joining SP groupbuys. Not to mention the fact that for anyone not named Massdrop, sorting and shipping 200+ orders is a monumental task.

[UKKeycaps]

Shipped percentage is now at 70%.

Sorting, packing and shipping this many orders is a large task, it's true, especially getting it done as fast as everyone wants it to be done!

[DtEarth]

I for one appreciate the work you are doing to get the caps to us. Hopefully I'll receive mine soon. Excite to receive my first high end key caps. I'm sure your shipping caps to the States by now.

[benoliver999]

I once ran a group buy for a tiny 3-D printed part. Got 50 orders. NEVER AGAIN.

Can't imagine how tricky this one must be!

WOOHOO, mine just shipped today

I was agreeing with you, as many people don't get how difficult a GB is.  No reason to come back at me like that...

My bad, just didn't know what you were getting at. Lately, when I get a "QFT" from someone, they are implying I am going to change my original statement or something along those lines.

It's supposed to be Quoted For Truth.  If they're altering it, then they're doing it wrong.

Just received mine here in States. Thanks for getting this all together. I'm sure your full of complaints by now but the packaging. I really wasn't expecting to receive my $200+ keycaps in a zip lock bag. I surely hope they all came overseas alright. Make me wonder if the keycap maker just sent you one huge box of millions of keys for you all to separate. Better this than nothing right?lol I'm sure fancy keycap boxes would have been more $$$ and taken longer. Unless I missed something at check out. Anyway, there here and quick glance they look fine.

*PS For the life of me I can not find my "E" key. I've checked all the bags, the floor, the chair, and even my pockets. Now what?*

Most of the time in the buys that I've been in,  this is exactly how they've been packaged,  unless you pay extra for a tray if it is offered (usually GMK),  and even when I get them direct from PMK they're packaged similarly.

Thanks for the replay. I figured that how it was with group buys. Not pissed as I know how much a PITA group buys are.
May move some keys around but here's a quick version.

Received mine yesterday- also missing 'E'. I got an extra '8' though!

There must be some sort of secret code in these missing/extra keys.  Keep reporting.   :p

[MandrewDavis]

Just checked my order and out of the five kits I ordered, no extra keys. Not sure if it was a mistake or not but I didn't receive a blue or red escape in the plank kit but luckily they were included in the modifier kit. This would have been an issue if I were trying to use these caps on two different keyboards.

I guess you're going to make me check my kit.  And if I do check it, I'll have to check all of the ones that have come in right after each other.

*sigh*

[My_Thoughts]

My keycaps have arrived but I am away until mid January.  I will report as soon as I can.  Just hope they are all there.

It would be a good idea to do so, no extra keys here but I'm missing a 1u Super key from the Non-Standard kit.

[Porsche]

I got mine yesterday and found my "Z" has some kinda of dirt.
And there is only 1 "Super" in Non-standard set instead of 2.

[DtEarth]

Seems many are missing keys. I am missing an E, Alt, and two ESC keys. Hope after the holidays Joe can straighten all this out.

Has anyone heard on the proper way to handle missing keys?
