Title: Geek HA CK Esc key
Post by: Roguemaster8 on Mon, 18 June 2012, 17:07:13
Been looking for this for a few days, if anyone has one that's in decent condition and would like to sell, please shoot me a PM.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]53192[/ATTACH]

I'm referring to the key on the left side. (Sorry Ripster for using your pic, hope you don't mind.)

EDIT: If there was enough interest, would it be possible to get Signature Plastics to make this key again? It shouldn't be that expensive, I mean they should already have the mold...

Been looking for one also, if you don't mind me piggybacking this thread, haha.

Not at all, I'm just unsure how common these are since the group buy was so long ago.

I never did find out what happened to him, did he make a thread about leaving geekhack forever or something?

But have no fear, you can find him trolling on Deskthority on a daily basis.

Wasn't there one up in a recent sales thread here? Might have been a red on white.

It was probably the red on white, I've seen quite a few those go up recently.

Should be part of red alert 2. If not, and if there is enough interest I can do a group buy for it after next month.

Oo, I wouldn't mind this. I've been looking for these too but can never find them. How much do these go for on average?

I noticed that as well, and as much as I'd like that whole set, I'm just searching for this particular key. A group buy would be awesome, there's a few people in this thread who already voiced interest, when can we start?! :bounce:

Of course, the one informative post in that thread was deleted, and the thread closed. We may never know the whole story. Go autoeroticise, please.

Brother RIP is over at deskthority.net, and has those keys ready and waiting for your trade offers. :-)

Good luck!

Oh, if you want the inverse, red on white, I have plenty to trade too.

I'm pretty sure that I have a white on red one lying around. I'll post again if I do.

That thing is hot as hell... Do want. I hope they do a group buy on these in red or multiple colors. I'd want like 4 of them.

Better of getting some of the new ones as they have proper kerning.

I think the OP actually wanted the cap specifically with the bad kerning.

After I obtain the cash, I would love to buy like 4 or so different colored Geekhack DS keys from someone who has them, and place them on my 4 shortcut keys on my Ducky. Lol! Unfortunately, I don't know when this will be... the life of a poor man :(

I think a yellow on green (mx) would be nice too! Unless you did it already :P

so we go ahead to make a new legend and pay a whole new legend fee but people are looking for the one with bad kerning lol

Post by: Roguemaster8 on Wed, 20 June 2012, 01:15:21
Tjwier and I are in the middle of a transaction for the cap, after it's been shipped I'll close this thread. Thanks for the interest everyone, hopefully in the future another group buy can happen for the same cap with better kerning. :tongue:

EDIT: tsangan, to me it's a bit of Geekhack's history that I was interested in, as it was the first GEEK HACK cap that Signature Plastics did for us, wasn't it?

white on red is quite classic I must say so myself
