My 9009 R2 has the same amount of spacebar "warping" as my R3 set. I really think this is just something people are noticing now and it hasn't impacted my typing experience

I know, look how that cup bent that space bar... that's just too much.
(I have vintage boards with perfectly straight 10u and 8u bars, but the 7u tooling seems like it's had problems for a while)

Choose your vendors carefully. Here is the vendors's comment which aren't confidence inspiring, certainly not a passionate one.



And some of the replies of GMK fanbois are hilarious! "GMK always has been ****ty so it must remain ****ty. GMK has warped spacebars before so therefore they must continue." Not to mention the abysmal communication from them. Again not blaming the vendors for GMK's QC, but expected some support from the vendors.

ACCEPTING WARPED SPACEBAR REPLACEMENT PHOTOS TO SEND TO GMK

If you have spacebars from the GMK 9009 R3 groupbuy / extras that have excessive warping, making the spacebars unusable, you may submit this form for GMK to review to see if you are eligible for replacements.  Submitting does not guarantee all or any of your spacebars will be replaced. GMK will judge each submission and determine which complaints are justified for a replacement.   

If you have submitted a support ticket to us with photos, please resubmit them through this form. GMK needs the data submitted in a certain format. Also please make sure your previous photos follow the guidelines in this form.

This form is only for customers who purchased directly from the storefronts listed below. If you purchased this set on the aftermarket or from any other storefront, you are not eligible for replacement because there is no way for us to fully verify the order information.

We (Dixie Mech, MKB.eu, Daily Clack, and iLumKB) will not be making the decision.

This form will be open for two weeks to allow everyone time to take their photos and submit the form.   After GMK reviews all the submissions, we will notify each customer whether you were approved or denied for replacements. GMK will then produce and ship the vendors the replacements and we will work on sending each approved order their replacements.   

Thank you everyone for your patience on this issue.


THIS FORM IS ACCEPTING RESPONSES UNTIL 11:59PM CENTRAL TIME, OCTOBER 11TH, 2020.

Hi, Dixie, nice, but what about cafe and olivia++ spacebars? Of course you didn't run those, but maybe heard something from GMK, because they all three seems from same "batch"

Filled out the form for all my 7u bars and an off-center 6u. They are definitely more warped than a 7u space from GMK carbon R1 but we will see if GMK thinks they are off-spec.

Just to make sure: you didn't submit that pic in the form right :) Cause it breaks quite a few rules of what GMK needs haha (pressing on the spacebar, multiple bars in one image, not labelled).

Nope, that pic was special just for us  :thumb:. It seems like GMK expects some amount of warp that is tolerable, so I was curious how 9009 R3 compared to older sets.

Trying to decide if I should open my sealed set to check the space bars for warping.

This makes me less likely to buy GMK sets.  Previously, if you were privileged to have cash before the drop, you could buy GMK sets knowing that if they didn't turn out as expected, you could resell it without losing much money.  This injects uncertainty and reduces resale value, since a secondary buyer can't request replacements.

And, yes.

I've been moving around so I didn't want to ship it to me and have to deal with having it ship to an old address... so I had it shipped to my brother, we'll only see each other around the holidays and he'll bring the keyset with him so I won't be able to get the keyset until then. He's not familiar with keyboard stuff and I prefer not asking him to QC things for me as he's already doing me a huge favor (feel like this should be on GMK or the vendors), but I guess I have no choice if I don't want to risk having to use warped spacebars (if they're even usable?).

We received the replacement spacebars from GMK with the GMK Nautilus shipment. Thank you for your patience as we finally have gotten around to getting this resolved. GMK sent us all the spacebars, instead of shipping to each vendor separately, so we will have to ship out the bars to each vendor.

We have sent out $0 invoices to everyone who submitted. This is an opportunity for you to change your address if it has changed since your 9009 order. We will ship out the replacements under these order numbers. Please check your emails. You must push this order through as if it were a regular order. So please do not just ignore the email when you see it.
THIS IS ONLY FOR OMNITYPE ORDERS. We do not dictate how the other regions will handle their replacements.

Only the 6u, 6.25u and 7u spacebars were replaced. Not the shorter ones or any other keys.
