Title: Were there ever Topre Darth Vader caps made?
Post by: HolidaySHRIMP on Sun, 14 October 2012, 02:29:49: Every Vader I've seen has been MX. Were any super special non-skull caps made in Topre?

And as a interesting little note, initially more unique Topre compatible keys were made over their MX counterpart.

I think by "initially" he was referring to in the beginning, like 1.5 to 2 years ago but I could be wrong.

I twas just kidding. I do however wish that I could get my hands on a few more clacks. I shall bring tradeables to the next meetup to hopefully fix that!

Post by: IvanIvanovich on Mon, 15 October 2012, 16:44:01: I think it would be very interesting if CC disclosed some numbers of how many of each are made, but somehow I doubt they will. Most artists number limited runs, just saying, might be nice for the buyer to know if they paid $500 on something there is 6 or 6000 of for example.

Post by: rowdy on Mon, 15 October 2012, 16:50:08: Not knowing how many of each colour have been made can lead to some frustration, like after the recent Hack Orange sale.

But I prefer it that way - it adds to the mystery.

What, did the market flood with Hack Oranges or something? Are they not worth that much?

Truer words never been spoken. The simplest law of economics!
