If u do future rounds please don’t call it sa Bla_ks. The underscore makes it hard to find in search if you don’t know what the gb is called

I do have "blanks" in the parenthesis...

Can you think of any other clever marketing names?

No led windowed stepped caps either. ;)

But I did have this idea of all keys on the keyboard being windowed... Hmmmmmm.

Yes yes yes! I would be happy for just some 1u in R3 and R1 and maybe a small caps led, no need for stepped edition I take the first 10 of each in Black n white :thumb:

We are close enough to MOQ. Will post some fresh numbers on a bit. 20/25 Black Alphas.

I'm working with mykeyboard.eu for eu proxying, which will probably extend the deadline. But the amount of sets is... Large. So I'm not sure if they want to list every. single. one. Or just sets, or use the form. Etc.

I'm working with mykeyboard.eu on being the eu proxy.  We will list the sets on their storefront, kits are available in the form. 

This is all a bit last minute, sorry, but I will extend the deadline as a result.

Generally, we are now looking ok for alphas, but the modifier kits probably need some help.  40's kit, and ergodox kit are in need of some love. 

Other kits (like frow) aren't in that much trouble since they share keys with Alphas.

Current Numbers / MOQs:
Alpha Kits:
Alphas WFK: 16 / 25
Alphas NN: 19 / 25
Deep Dish WFK: 12 / 25
Deep Dish NN: 16 / 25
Deep Dish Alpha WFK: 0 / 5
Deep Dish Alpha NN: 1 / 5

Modifier Kits:
Standard Mods:  15 / 25
65 Nav: 11 / 25
40's:  6 / 15
Ortho:  16 / 25
Split Shifts: 17 / 25
ErgoDox: 6 / 15

Bottom Row:
Spacebar 7u: 9 / 15
Spacebar 6.25u: 14 /15
Spacebar 3u: 1 /15
Split Space: 13 / 25
Hybrid Bottom Row:  1 / 15
Winkey Bottom Row: 11 / 25
Winkey-less Bottom Row: 10 / 15

Etc.:
F-Row / Nav (TKL):  8 / 25
Numpad: 5 / 15
ISO Enter: 2 / 15

Small update : EU prices will increase due to VAT. Also orders will need to be placed on mykeyboard.eu (otherwise, you will pay more for shipping, and VAT will be your responsibility with customs).

Sorry, first time running an international gb. :(

Trying to get this squared away this weekend.

Yea, I'll post another update when everything is listed and ready to go, as well as emails / PM's to those affected.

I'm getting them prices incl VAT, images, descriptions, etc.

I thought they could just send paypal invoices, or drop them in the post; but I was wrong.   :blank:

Still waiting on mykeyboard.eu to list everything.

MOQ IS HIT, by the way. :). All kits will go through.

If there is a TON (like double the kits sold) more interest, I can drop prices. But that seems a bit unlikely.

'20% VAT Included' will do that (increase the prices 20%).  I set these prices, and the margins are actually slightly less (shipping supplies come out of these margins).

You have the option of keeping your order through me, paying VAT when it hits your doorstep, and paying $15 shipping or so.

Edit, looking a little more. Edit again: Ah, I see what happened.  I'll see if I can fix the prices.

MyKeyboard.eu pricing is updated to more reasonable numbers.

Note: Sets are a bit cheaper than kits.

The reason it's more expensive than just VAT is they need to cover the more expensive bulk shipping to EU, and shipping supplies.  (I was planning on 'figuring this out later' for US orders, whereas they already figured it out.)

Yes. 

Just send me a DM with your order number and how you ordered (form / Shopify), and I'll make sure to update your order.

Keep in mind, I ordered a bunch of extras, so (provided they aren't insanely popular) you will have a month or two to also pick up any other things.
