Really want to join for a Peacock set, but there are currently some issues with the website. To many printing options and "Normal 103 Green Print" costs $20 extra instead of Peacock.

I sent you an email.

Too many options, or did he add more? I just assumed he added more, but the $20 extra is on the wrong set. Post what you hear back from him please if he doesn't post himself.

Imsto fixed it already.

Now, we can buy the Green option with no extra 20$ added.

The Cyrillic...

I assume the Black Cyrillic is just mono black print, unless he's doing black on black which I'd buy in a heartbeat, need to email him.

Looks like he added Russian to the options, so anyone who didn't get one in the last gb and wants red Cyrillic can now.

The black Russina means all the English and Russian letters are black..
Just add the normal Russian layout... some people want it more than the black and blue ones.

Well you can't do more than add them to your cart now since if you try to buy one it tells you that the item isn't in stock...

Yea possibly didn't think it would meet MOQ(don't remember seeing mentioned in OP), although there were a few people probably waiting till the last minute to put in their orders, I know I was debating still on getting a set.

I'd recommend contacting him through his site to see if you can get in if it hasn't been canceled. Link here (http://imsto.cn/index.php?route=information/contact)

Is there no oversight with vendors on here? Dude runs a group buy, cuts it off early, takes payments from those who ordered and no one has heard anything? Been 2+ weeks since a few of us contacted him and nothing. He's logged in to GH a few times but hasn't posted anything in a month.

So 5.   d. Conduct all transactions ethically, with courtesy, and with proper communication.

So far zero communication. We've even contacted him outside GH and no response.

Yes, I joined this GB by Date Added: 07/09/2015.
I'm not sure if it was ended early but we should acknowledge that imsto has quite a big number of customers who did not order via imsto.cn, they did via other channels in China, Taobao, Deskthority or GB PM. Perhaps, when the stock is out, the GB will be ended earlier.

Here is the picture taken from my sets:

(http://i.imgur.com/Ht52G3c.jpg)
*The colour is strong and sharp.
I put them along with 2 ink bottles Iroshizuku Kon-peki and Shin-ryoku to have colour comparison.

I will do a comparison between BSP imsto dyesub vs Originative BSP dyesub on microscope later.
Definitely, similarly, the imsto dyesub set has strong sharpness while BSP dyesub is little bit too soft.
Nevertheless, both sets are great and you can't go wrong with either of them.
BSP PBT surface is great, it is better than Gateron PBT surface  in some aspects, at least in my opinion.
So BSP PBT is worth a try if you already had imsto PBT (Ivan Group Buy)

+ imsto BSP PBT (BSP base), this Group Buy
(http://i.imgur.com/dN2dgYt.jpg)

My thoughts:
3 sets have superb quality of dyesub, perhaps they are the best in term of modern and ready-to-market sets.
Like I said before, you can't be wrong with either of these sets.
EnjoyPBT and Imsto PBT on Gateron are pretty similar even there are some different legends printing on these 2 sets.
imsto dyesub has proven to be the best on the modern market, as we can see in the pictures, his BSP PBT dyesub has slightly different with enjoyPBT and his own Gateron dyesub. The dyesub quality on BSP is even better in term of clarity and sharpness comparing to enjoyPBT and imsto Gateron PBT.

That imsto BSP is SHARP!

Thanks for the high quality photos, phoenix1234. I'd like to get a hold of some BSP caps in the future, but in the relatively near future I may pickup the grey thick PBT caps imsto has. I think these KBC caps have seen enough use, and I'd like to get something with more thickness.

imsto told me last month that he plans on doing one again later this year, around the same time as the other GBs.
I asked if he'll include Desko this time around, but I've yet to hear from him.

Good question, I also want Desko, actually, Red Desko.

Could you help ask if he can make it? It's a really nice variant of Desko that looks amazing. :)

I feel that there's gonna be demand for such a cool looking red-legend printed set. ;)

I'll be sure to ask when he responds!

I'm mostly interested in regular Desko as I don't have a good classic beige set. Pure ol' beige is a bit too boring for my tastes; Desko adds just enough spice to make it stand out while still retaining that plain look.

Yes, just 7x (ABS GMK), but if you want 6.25x or 7x PBT (Gateron base - pretty close to Cherry OG), you can purchase freely from his website:

Thank you. (also thank you for the amazing closeup pictures posted above!)

Can you confirm that it's the same shade of white? I already ordered regardless since I don't feel like hawking the classifieds for one of these, but just wondering.

Oh, so those are by Gateron? I was wondering who made them and what profile they were. Great to know; will definitely order a few.

Great! I know Gateron is Cherry profile and makes enjoyPBT's caps, but I wasn't sure which space bars were those on imsto's site.
Neat!

I can confirm that the 7x PBT space bars from imsto that I ordered have pretty close shade of white to the BSP PBT.
They were made by Gateron and they have Cherry profile. I will take some pictures when I get home for comparison versus Cherry OG 7x PBT space bar.

Ok, here we go:

From left to right:

1) Cherry OG PBT 7x
2) Cherry OG PBT 7x
3) Gateron PBT 7x (received from imsto, need to buy separately from the GB)
4) Gateron PBT 7x (received from imsto, need to buy separately from the GB)
5) GMK ABS 7x  (received from imsto)
6) GMK ABS 7x  (received from imsto)
7) another Cherry OG PBT 7x (got from Cherry 11800 Compaq, it is slightly lighter than 1 and 2)

(http://i.imgur.com/aoQm4Fu.jpg)
Cherry OG PBT 7x Weight: 7.91g

(http://i.imgur.com/AKagUCV.jpg)
Gateron PBT 7x: 7.60g

My thoughts about Gateron PBT 7x: it has a very good quality, highly recommended if you are looking for a 7x PBT space bar on the market . It is a bit lighter than Cherry OG PBT (0.3g) but the surface is rougher than Cherry OG PBT. The colour is pretty matched with BSP PBT white.

I think everyone loves their set, but, as this is the third one of the same sets at a high price, it may be that fewer people are joining with each year as they have no need.
But seeing as there now are many more newcomers since last GB, hopefully there will be more!
