mfw could have bought all the caps i want from these kits for aftermarket prices...

See. We can’t ever have nice things bc someone wanted two kits instead of just one with white alphas and green mods.  I bet if they knew the price they wouldn’t have voted this way

I think what they originally wanted was for the green mods to be with the alphas and for the grey mods to be the separate kit. There should also be spacebar kits too.

if this is going to be split into better kits, and some keys removed i would suggest pulling all the ISO keys into the international kit (including greens) and getting rid of centered stem spacebars, or putting green spacebars into their own kit

This is what happened with R1 on Massdrop as well (R1 total was less expensive), and that didn't even hit MOQ.

I would just like to mention that a whopping 6 out of 256 people in the interest check ever mentioned adjusting the kits in favor of the green mods. To put some perspective on that, 12 people just said they weren't interested. So twice as many people said "no, I don't want it" than people that thought I should mess with the alphas/mods setup. Hence why I ran the kits the way I did, be cause the vast majority of the responses to the IC said "no, the mods and alphas are fine the way they are."

It's all good, donut.  We'll get it figured out.  No rush to get sweet green caps

This probably is necessary since a lot of people prefer Green mods (yes, different from the survey), and even if the Green Mods Kit becomes smaller, Base + Green Mods will still be too steep of a step and not affordable for many.
In this situation, it seems better to make the Base Kit more attractive with Green mods, then upsell complete Royal Alpha (incl. Grey mods) to those who wants complete Kits.  People who lose from this kit makeup is those who only wants Grey mods--I doubt there are many.

Still waiting on quotes and renders for the updated kit contents from GMK, hoping to hear back from them this week.

4 gmk sets at the same time.... good job

That European price on MechBoardsUK is ridiculous. It's almost cheaper to order from Donut Cable and pay for shipping and VAT.
