[Group Buy] Sanctuary Keyset

[hazeluff]

Sherryton/Hazeluff, could you add 1 additional base set and 1 numpad set to my order please? Thanks!

Can do = )

So the iso set actually has a 1.75x key like a tsangan kit? If this is from signature plastics maybe I can just get that one shift key from left overs, I really don't want to buy an Iso set for just one key.

You may be able to get one off someone else, but the set is $4...so you buying and paying shipping off someone else will end up roughly the same. Anyways, you'd get some extra keys with the ISO ; p.

Why there're two fengs on the order list? Did I submit the order twice?

There are two, because you submitted two. I'll remove the older one.

Why there're two fengs on the order list? Did I submit the order twice?

Don't worry because I filled out a form at DT's site and I forgot I had already filled out here on Geekhack.  I just got worried when Geekhack got attacked and went down for a long time that the orders for the Sanctuary key-set would be lost as well.

YES, I am that stupid to think that you guys wouldn't have back-up of the old orders.  )

[Rexxed]

I've been following the thread but I'm not clear on the stepped caps lock.  I thought it was included with the base set but is it a special request item or will it be included?

[mickd]

I believe the stepped caps lock in the base set is not center-stemmed, meaning it doesn't fit on most standard modern keyboards like the Filco. The one he's asking about will be center-stemmed and will fit on those keyboards

[hazeluff]

Exactly what mickd said.

The one in the image has the stem "off-centered" and is to the left of the key (where the legend is). What I am asking is about the same looking key, but with the stem right in the center, so that it can fit modern boards.

[Rexxed]

Oh, I understand now.  I guess I would be interested in a center-stemmed capslock if it becomes an option.  My current capslock is not stepped and it's been bumped on a few times because I recently switched to a cherry blue board from using a model m for 10+ years.  Thanks for clearing that up.

[NikoGasm]

So how much interest needs to be shown on the center-stemmed stepped caps lock before you can confirm its availability?

[f/64]

+1 for center stemmed caps.

[danielucf]

Center stem is a pretty cool option in my book.

[Surreal Killa]

I'm definitely interested in this, assuming they fit nice on a Filco.

Just submit my form May I ask for the shipping cost for Inter & CONUS? Cuz I hav 2 addresses, so I can choose the faster or cheaper. Thanks

Can't wait for these keys!

Shipping is from US. So CONUS should be faster and cheaper = ). Unless you are in Korea. If you are in Korea then ordering through kbdmania will have KR shipping.

I hate hazeluff. Just thought I'd remind him in case he forgot.

With that said, can't wait!

[sherryton]

Yes, it will definitely fit nice on a Filco

I can't wait to bring this to Korea!  I'm going to the USPS to pick up my prototype set tomorrow (FINALLY)!

Guys ignore this Demilk guy. Always spamming and stuff.

Also YAY FOR PROTOTYPES!

[Bim Gao]

I submitted the form few days ago but my name is not in the list, please check for me

really? i never would have guessed!

[canthonytucci]

Is it possible to just get the number row? Does anyone want to split one? I just want the red roman numeral number row....anyone?

[Elrick]

Is it possible to just get the number row? Does anyone want to split one? I just want the red roman numeral number row....anyone?

So why don't you buy the whole key-set and then cherry pick the stuff you want?

The Red roman numerals is what attracted me to this Group Buy above all else, and you want someone to sell you only that.  Sure I'll do it, but for $299.00USD.

That way I can then live with what you forced me to do, gut a perfectly nice key-set just to please you.......

You win! Ordred!

[Surreal Killa]

The red roman numerals are mad nice. I'm looking forward to pics of the prototype.

They are on page 2 already I think.

edit - just double checked and they are.

[Surreal Killa]

Ah, cool. When do they go into production?

What do you guys think?

[Halverson]

Looks a bit washed out, guess the picture is a bit overexposed.

But loving that grey nonetheless! Can't wait to ditch the stock caps on my CM storm red for those

[sherryton]

the grey reminds me of the Leopold FC700R grey.  it's just different colored font.

the colors come off a bit too strong though.  sorry, my photography skills still need some practice

[Halverson]

Photography is certainly not easy! But if you spend enough on a D-SLR, it does most of the work for you

[NikoGasm]

I really like the grey color on those. Looks pretty snazzy. The font looks great too, though like Halverson said it does look like the red is kind of washed out. Though just like previously stated, that can easily be chalked up to lighting and photography errors.

All in all, I'm loving the look. That grey is phenomenal. Can't wait to get my hands on my set.


EDIT: After looking at the color of the text, and the color of the case I can tell that the red would actually be much more vibrant when presented in person. They're a pretty close match in the picture, and I know for certain that that specific case isn't that dull of a shade.

[sherryton]

Wow Halverson... I'm real sad now.  That means my photography skills REALLY SUCK! haha

I do need some more practice.  I just got it.  To be honest, Outdoor Photography is easy for me, but products and indoors is no good!

[danielucf]

What will the differences be in the Prototype #2 and #3?

Awe, I didn't mean to say it like that! Indoor lighting is a biotch. Flash, natural lighting, fluorescent lights, lotta variables in it. When I first got into photography I think it was mostly about reading different techniques and advice.

[sherryton]

What will the differences be in the Prototype #2 and #3?

Prototype #3 isn't on its way yet.  We're still discussing.  We haven't received #2 yet.

[sherryton]

My mistake.  This is the #2 prototype set.  #1 was the individual keys: E, W, Diablo, and Tyrael key.

[danielucf]

So like....what changes will take place between revisions?

[sherryton]

Well first set.  We wanted to choose the best looking car, so we got individual keys.  We chose the best one, and we produced a set.  The red is too strong though with a few of the keys.  We might want to change it.

[ahoocom]

What will the differences be in the Prototype #2 and #3?

1. few font's size changes (^*()_-+= alt
2. color changes(for experiment) not't decided changing color yet
3. stabilizer mount changes. in old one. we had stabilizer mounting problem(only for majetouch type stabilizer, it was too loose. cherry fits).

[Zehkul]

Wait what, SP can actually do something about #3?

[ahoocom]

Wait what, SP can actually do something about #3?

yeah. i surprised too.

and... you looks like 'brony'.... if you are interested. search '포확찢' 

[AKIMbO]

While you are at it...tell SP to fix the stabilizer problem on all of the keycaps they produce.  Stabilizer inserts fit into SP key caps like throwing a hot dog down a hallway if you know what I mean.

[Zehkul]

Oh yeah. That would be so awesome!

and... you looks like 'brony'.... if you are interested. search '포확찢' 

Haha so ponies have reached Korea? (I’m still waiting for the day one of my favorite starcrafters comes out of the shed, hehe, so far it’s only TLO, and he isn’t korean)
What am I supposed to find? I found some nice comics (which I sadly can’t understand), some of them quite gory, something about the sims and a purple horse, and, strangely enough, the pinkie pie skyrim video. Now I’m curious, what does 포확찢 mean? lol (Just my little pony?)
/e: LOL and a news show mentioning bronies, hell yeah!

포확찢 means 'Must Rip that goddamn Ponies!' or 'every pony should be ripped off' (imagine when first time you visited diablo3's secret level)
I'm not a 포확찢'er or brony... 포확찢 is just recent trend of korea.. wanted to introduce and curious if US has something like that

P.S I DON'T HATE PONY! EITHER I DON'T LIKE PONY!


and you know what?.... if you see GSL 2011 tour's final round vid. you can see me
(daddy! i'm on television!)

[Zehkul]

So Korea hates ponies? Haha lol. That’s just the first step to liking them anyway.
We’ve got many pony haters as well, of course. The internet, taken as a whole, is divided into three parts: Ponies, pony haters, and a striking majority of those who don’t give a ****, lol.

Thanks for telling me, it’s pretty hilarious. Ponies come to you and Psy to us, fair trade, I think. xD

ummmm... korea also has lots of brony... why i told you that is...just that 'Word' is making issue.. (think because of word or picture is quite cruel)
just like US... we have lots of brony, and lots of pony haters..too..
don't make preoccupation or prejudice.

and it's interesting US citizens 'actually' knows psy!
Gangnam Style~~

[sth]

Gangnam Style~~

[Zehkul]

Gangnam Style, yes! (I’m quite surprised it got that popular, too, I mean, you don’t usually expect music you heard on korean SC2 streams to suddenly appear wherever you go, haha)
I’m no US citizen, by the way, I’m from Germany. And I’ve heard a lot of Psy before Gangnam Style happened, I’m a regular on Dragon’s stream. ^^ It’s just very difficult for me to search for anything korean myself, google translator produces just gibberish there. Korean is the language the translator is the worst at, by far.

Korea has lots of bronies? Glad to hear that, I always thought it just hasn’t gotten there yet. And ›brony‹ means something cruel in Korean? Interesting. You live and learn. :-)

[sherryton]

I just found out that you can transfer your money through Bank of America for free.  I think it's the same with Chase as well.  I have an account from these two banks(also East West Bank, but I'm not sure if there is a fee or not from there).  I wanted to know how you guys would feel about transferring money to my bank account instead of using paypal.  Of course it is risky, but I'm hoping I'm trusted around GH by this time.  If not, then we can just stick with paypal because the fee is pretty minimal still.  It's just that accepting money (without profit) runs a huge risk on Paypal.

We're suppose to be collecting money already.  I hope we can solve this by tomorrow.

Also, I'm going to Korea to bring the Sanctuary key caps there.  I'll take lots of pictures with members from OTD and KBDMania.  I'll try to make them as drunk as possible, so I can bring more Korean boards for you guys!

Thanks for making this happen Geek Hack!

[alaricljs]

If you need more options, INGDirect also has this.  It's 100% online.

[OrangeJewce]

Sherry,

      As you've said, the buyers would lose all protection if we went with transfers into your account unless you and I (the buyer) e-sign an agreement that the transfer is for goods (which would be a hassle for you). Personally I'd rather use PayPal and suck up the 2.9%.

Cheers,
