Sorry brother the list was up to date till yesterday. Thanks for the support!

Hmmm apparently I was looking at the polycarb sheet and have a duplicate now. My first order can be removed.

So how is it with the DHL shipping costs? I am from the EU and I have never heard about SF Express. Do they ship to the EU (Czech Republic)? I really want to get a PC non-badge solder beauty.

Has the invoicing for oc and aluminum started ? Or is it only at the end of the gb period? I haven’t seen any invoices yet...

It will start when we reach the quantity limit or 4/30. Will then provide 2 days order revision window, and then batch invoices will be sent.

Thanks! Making it standardized will save us a lot of sorting effort :)

By the way, all default gold brass badges and weights will get 18k Gold PVD treatment, will be awesome.

PC + Black badge is my choice.

Does it really scratch that easily? Do you think a wire keycap puller could leave a mark if I’m not careful?

Minor scratches on the inside when you pull scratches using keycap pulled won’t be visible, if you use sharp items against outside surface it will be visible

Sad that its not possible to remove the badge and put in the two keys :) would make decisions easier 😎
But even if i would like the two keys... i think the badge just belongs to the design

Hi during the order modification period, you can fill out a form to indicate which one you intend to keep.

Hey oldcat, are there any spots left? Looks like both PC and aluminum forms are view-only now, but the total is only 468 (not the 500 maximum stated in "Note 2" from Airpotter).

These are the GB forms that you need to fill out, not the excel sheets:

We are at 490 without deleting possible duplicate forms
I will keep the form open till 4/30, with a maximum of 500 spots. Later joiners can be placed on the waitlist for non-paid spots.

No worries I'm already used to waiting a few months. I've preemptively purchased switches and caps in other GB's that will arrive within similar time frames (assuming everything runs on time lol). Thanks for running this GB

Nice. I might switch to compatible with additional hotswap pcb when order check comes in.  Prefer split backspace.

Aluminum prototypes are out and I should be able to receive them on Monday if the courier works as it should. I will be receiving 4 different top pieces (different layouts), and 2 bottoms (same).

Here are a couple of cellphone pictures taken by Potter last night. Lighting is a bit weird so the color may not be 100% accurate. I will take some pictures with accurate exposures and white balance when I receive the prototype. Here is a sneak peek for Wavez green.
