When and how much?
Currently only in support of China because the shipping problem. If western customers want to buy some, it is better to organize some GB and ship together.

Wow, I would love to get in on some polycarb trays like this as more display-oriented containers than the foam trays I've used for storage. Extremely here for this if anybody runs it as a western GB

Since it would support SA profiles, would it also support MT3 profiles? No trays have been made for those

I've noticed that DSA caps larger than 1u fit VERY tightly and I have to store them upside down in existing trays. Do these solve that?

Thank you for making this product, it's awesome and much nicer than GMK's flimsy trays.

plus shipping, which is expensive and slow because of the volume of these trays

i've asked for price quotes and i am looking for available vendors to try and run these ASAP

likely it'll be switchmod, since krelbit and i have worked together on other stuff and he's the homie

Would there be a rectangular version?  It seems that this is an awkward shape to ship.

I am interested and willing to try 5 or 6.

The international shipping fee will be over $20 for one unit. The cheapest shipping is ocean shipping, but the weight should be more than 100KG. That is why I dont want to sell to end users because of the so expensive shipping fee.

That totally makes sense! Wish we could've gotten together with a distributor over here to get a bulk order. If I could get 10 of them for ~125 shipped inside the US I'd have done it. Perhaps in the future.

Is there even any info on official pricing? I assume comments above mentioning $10 for a single tray are guesses. Or am I wrong?

And imo $10 for a tray is fine, what I’m worried about is 1). Shipping prices 2). The fact that OP is not into answering our prayers just yet ;D

I'm pretty sure they don't want to sell to end users on different continents for a variety of reasons, one of which is shipping. My hope of posting in here is that vendors in North America (and EU) buy in bulk and sell to us. Even then, shipping (JTK to North America, vendor to end users) is going to account for a significant cost.

They're now on Drop for 7 days at $21. Whether or not vendors will sell them for cheaper will be TBD I guess?

Drop has the smaller ones for 16 and the max for 21. I am curious if 1up will end up being the same price or cheaper. I would prefer to give them my money over Drop.

It's both standard and MAX.  The screenshot im the newsletter only shows standard so understandable why one might think that, but I have MAX in my shopping cart waiting for me to decide if I think vendors will sell it cheaper

I think if you run something on drop they want you to make sure than no one else will sell for cheaper.
Hopefully I’m wrong

On 1up the smaller tray is $18. On Drop it’s $16. My guess is that Drop will undercut all other vendors.

Also, don’t forget: it’s $16 for two (or $21 for ONE for the MAX)

Edit: $21 for ONE Max

Thats what I am starting to think. I could 1up selling the max for slightly below the cost of 1 max tray shipped from Drop. Maybe 27 shipped? But, Drop will scale better with shipping costs since 1up doesnt scale their shipping and just builds into the price of their items.

Welcome to capitalism. :-) If ppl want to support small sellers they’ll just have to pay more. Redistribute more $$ in their hands upfront so later they can afford to cut margins by increasing volume. That’s how Drop did it.

Standard - $25-ish for two shipping and tax..

Max - $30-ish for one shipping and tax..

Was interested, but $30 for a keycap tray is a no go.  :rolleyes:

I'll wait and see what 1up pricing is

Currently two shipped from 1up is 36. I highly doubt they come in under Drop's price on the max

For some additional context, 1up factors shipping in with their base pricing (for US), 1 for $18. Drop will have shipping added after (~$8 for me in Midwest) so 2 for $24. It's probably the same price to ship 1 as 2 so we may find 1up priced competively if you only need one MAX tray since they seem to be pricing the OG tray ~$10 per (though that is 125% Drop's $8).

If you need multiples then Drop is the move (duh statement) but I wouldn't be surprised to see vendor's pricing around the price of 1 MAX plus shipping from Drop

/fingerscrossed

I haven't seen other storage solutions where you can keep caps in place and display/store easily besides these (and was bummed when found GB was non-US originally), I enjoy my OG tray for some keys as is but MAX would be nice for full sets

Right, which is why I'll wait instead of giving drop money now. I'm still not paying $30 for a keycap tray regardless.

I think the drop price will still be lower BUT there will be the time factor so it will be worth it to pay maybe 2 or 3 dollars more (on the one set). It would be nice if someone like 1up would discount multiples instead of charging full shipping on orders of 2 or more. Time will tell.

If you don't move the trays often, there won't be a problem. If there is a big vibration, it may be scattered.

Awesome thanks for the reply! I will maybe try and figure a way to make the larger tray fit cherry profile with a snug fit. Honest'y with the way GMK's new packaging has gone, I'm in the market for a lot of these and I think many people will be too.

Yea I would love a slightly larger size than the smaller one that could fit a full kit of GMK. Once I saw how bad the new GMK trays were I paid a ton getting the older style trays. They aren't so great either though. Until then I'm waiting to source a bunch of the smaller JTK small size. I saw a video on showing the max trays with cherry profile, I don't think it's the best match.
