Exactly, now we wait for the Payment schedule to be released. I'm hoping it's so EASY and Complete that we can start imagining how the Key-Caps will look on our keyboards.

But then.......Again..........

I can't afford the $5000 of keycaps. Sorry if this drops all sets below minimum again.

Just a quick question, as it seems like this is going to close - with the recent cherry white sets and the Moogle buys going on, is there an option in this GB to order apple command symbol keys to match the black on white cherry sets?

hashbaz · « **Reply #4014 on:** Sun, 01 April 2012, 23:19:15 »

Deadline has come and gone with no post from 7bit.

Yes

NOIR/APPLE125
NOIR/APLETXT125

Oh... No. GB Round 4 doesn't have ANY black on white. NOIR is white on black.

To all those who have not received confirmation. Have you guy's also sent a clear all msg. the first time i ordered i got a confirmation email with the day, changed my mind-sent a clear all and then ordered again. since sending the clear all though i have not heard a peep from the good order bot. can anyone confirm this to be the issue?

metafour · « **Reply #4019 on:** Mon, 02 April 2012, 00:08:02 »

I never sent a clearall but I do recall 7bit saying he runs the script manually. Therefore you can only really expect an email when he actually runs the script.

Just order what you want, as long there is no 'THIS IS NOW CLOSED' I don't expect it to be closed.

Just chill guyz, let 7bit do his work, its a forum, but this is a group buy, i see more posts making fun of the in-success than the ones helping with the success of this buy, maybe its normal but lets make a difference for the better. Im not experienced on these matters, but i like seeing respect for the work in progress.
People love a drama story with a bad ending but try ignore the soap operas.

Lets wait for what he has to say, we owe him that, and make your orders, when 7bit runs the bot again they will be registered its always like this. As for the deadline, we wait and see. Its not like if you dont buy here you will buy anywhere else, so lets be patient and supportive.

With Love,
grik

Why doesn't anybody like the Retro/STDRGBYSYM? Or the more pertinent question would be why the Retro symbols set are not getting picked? Is there a specific reason?
I personally have issues with the geometry modifier characters. I would more accept the actual words for the modifiers instead. Better yet would be windows flag, menu icon, CRTL and ALT.

I actually like the look of that set. I ordered it, along with NOIR/STANDARD and NOIR/SPACE.

Taracta · « **Reply #4029 on:** Mon, 02 April 2012, 17:38:31 »

You guys are about the only persons who did order any of the STDRGBYSYM sets! This set is what really got me into this group order but to get what I wanted the price would be quite high with lots of spare keycaps from the additions just to get the needed keys. I am assuming that I am not the only one with this issue from the low orders of any of these sets. It seems that most just gave up and ordered the plain standard sets.

grik · « **Reply #4030 on:** Mon, 02 April 2012, 18:13:13 »

I would add to my order one of those RETRO/STDRGBYSYM set if it was to be sent from Europe, cause if it all comes from US i will pay alot of Costums Taxes it makes me impossible to buy the 2nd kit plus some extras that i just order.
Its like 35% more (outchh!! i know).

Is this possible to ship my order inside Europe? if so i will add and help a little more on this set too.

I don't think anyone knows the exact shipping details at this point, but 7bit lives in Germany, so it's probably pretty safe to say that your keys will be shipping from Europe.

grik · « **Reply #4032 on:** Mon, 02 April 2012, 20:35:39 »

If he confirms this, count me in on one extra RETRO/STDRGBYSYMPT as in Portuguese Layout.It would be mighty awesome to grab one of this too...if they ship to me from EU.

Thanks for the reply

I'm very busy at the moment. I'm preparing the order lists and all that to send it off to Melissa to get a last price quote before the order.

I may want to rescind the order depending upon the final price. How will you confirm whether or not we're going to pay?

Delphox · « **Reply #4039 on:** Wed, 04 April 2012, 15:46:43 »

Is still available the LOD (aka awithdot) keycap?

There were hundreds sold in the recent group buy, so lots of people have them and would probably be willing to sell you some. Tsangan might even still have extras in his novelty group buy sale thread in the classifieds subforum.

edit: But to answer your question directly, no, they aren't available in this group buy anymore

rknize · « **Reply #4041 on:** Wed, 04 April 2012, 16:03:36 »

For that matter, who are we going to pay here in the USA?

irjoe · « **Reply #4042 on:** Wed, 04 April 2012, 19:31:35 »

I sure hope that those who are living in the US don't have to pay to have these shipped to Germany, just to have them shipped back to the U.S after the sort-out...

I sure wouldn't want to be in his shoes. So many key-sets, too many bad tempered customers and then a Rubic's Cube way of getting money to SP.

As much as I like the idea of GB 4.0 I think it might be time to just let 7bit enjoy his Easter holiday (you know that little Christian thing that has just happened) and be patient.

Pick up a few key Christian values and practice them instead of always badgering and pestering him about when are are you going to get the Key-caps.

rknize · « **Reply #4049 on:** Mon, 09 April 2012, 09:49:50 »

Yup, expect this to fall by the wayside again. A "hey, I'm overwhelmed; please stand by" might be encouraging.

Oh well, at least we're getting our switches!
