What's the point of using an EU-proxy that's not in the EU?
These keycaps will likely be delivered after 1/1 2021. We currently don't have the slightest idea of what the trade agreement between the UK and the EU will be by then. At present I prefer a proxy located anywhere in the world except the UK to a proxy located in the UK. Given the uncertainty it makes little to no sense for me to buy stuff I expect next year from the UK.
What's the point of using an EU-proxy that's not in the EU?We might actually pay the taxes twice. We pay it now and if things go bad, again when we "import" the set.

Yes I am wondering about this as well. Any word out on how this will be solved?

There is no uncertainty. The UK is in the EU until December and shared VAT rules are in place until then. there is no transaction after that date so there will be no further payment due, your VAT that you pay will still be valid when this ships.
Joined for my set last night! Was gonna wait till next pay, but I wanted one of those Rama X artisan & had no ideal if they are limited in number or not.

They’re not limited, but you’re good to buy early so confidence grows in the kits being made. (I don’t think this set will need any help, though)
What happened to the text and icon mods? :*(We decided to change it to icon only mods based on both the IC form's results (also my personal preference as well)
Will ws2 or ws1 match e-white better?WS2

Import tax is paid on delivery, not when you pay for the item.

So its definitely not certian if we have to pay import taxes inside the eu? Thats a huge bummer I feel like..

I was kinda holding off on buying the Numpad kit till I seen if it was gonna get close to MOQ, although I already ordered the base through TX. I wonder if I shoot them an email about it, if they would be able to bundle it in with my base order so I don't have to pay double shipping?They should be able to merge the order for you so you won't have to pay the shipping twice

Has there been any info on how the WS2 Rama caps match up against a Rama MILK board?
we will try to match it with ws2-which means it will not be the same colour as RAMA Milk boards.Has there been any info on how the WS2 Rama caps match up against a Rama MILK board?

Any guesses as to why there are so many more orders of Rama X than Rama O? I thought they would be more even.

Rama as a company is known more for their "X" logo, that's probably why

So the Rama O will be more rare!

Any ideas if there will be any extras for this set?
Hi @botallu any updates as where this GB is at, production-wise?
Any updates?Jae said on his latest protoTypist update that the set will probably ship from vendors in February.

The light blue tint of these keycaps mess with my eyes.
When they are sitting in the GMK box, they look almost blue, but as I move them around the house, they seemingly change colors.
It's a bit of a trip.
Yeah I noticed that as well, it's a really cool effect, especially since I don't think WS1 would have any blue mixed in the plastic? In my warmer lighting office it is the bleach white. But like you say in the trays (guessing shadows cast from the ridges of the trays) it does appear a faint cool blue.
Dope set, wish I bought another one for another incoming e-white board.
Good news, row 2 looks fine. Bad news.....

Are the specks the issue? They appear to be casting shadows, so maybe they're removable? I just opened my base set, and no issues.

Got mine in yesterday & have a black spec showing through my Y cap, gotta hit up TX to see if they can get replacements.

This is a simple QC oversight by GMK. Let's hope this isn't their answer to getting sets out faster.
