Title: Re: [WTB] Round 3 KeyCap Set
Post by: tricheboars on Wed, 13 March 2013, 16:27:08: WOW i am insanely confused at this point. But encouraged at the responses. The Beast are you offering to sell me your Round 4's? or are you saying you are going to think about selling them next year?

OK so let me explain what i want to do. a while back i saw a photo of a Korean 356mini Kustom with retro dolch like keys and a giant font. I thought it was the coolest looking thing I ever saw. A tiny modern 60% board with a retro keycap set? Yes please! That is what I want. In that photo the Korean dude had some orange WASD cluster and other keys. I am guessing that is why orange was brought up. I would be down with that. But before i go and start customizing the keycap layout I need the keys themselves.

As always thanks so much for any assistance! keep it wu-tang clackers!

Sorry, I'm back to clear up the confusion :) Beast may sell off his R4 set. The joke about it being a year is that R4 has taken so damn long, but hopefully will be shipping in a month or two...maybe 3.

Oh and the R4 set is an exact replica of R3! Which is big font dolch replica :D

wait. round 4 hasnt shipped yet? i thought that group buy took place a year ago. hmm that could be good news for me. that means more keycap sets will start to populate our user base here. i need this retro. thanks for clearing that up.

now what is this pineapple/wads joke? or do i not want to know.

would you be willing to sell the round 3 set without the TypeNow board? I do not need a new cherry board, especially with the GH60s i have coming my way.

Post by: tricheboars on Thu, 11 April 2013, 11:03:27: please sell me just the keycaps. i have purchased 3 mech boards in the last month alone that i do not need (and that does not include my GH60 orders), and a few broken pokers for parts. plus, MX brown is the only mech switch i dislike and i made a deal with myself not to purchase another mech board for 6 months (unless i find a Realforce 104UK-HiPro).

what is the cost breakdown of the board and the caps? please list so me and Perm can figure out payment.
Title: Re: [WTB] Round 3 KeyCap Set
Post by: mmmty on Thu, 11 April 2013, 13:18:58: tricheboars cost = $RD3 caps + $6

You'll have to work out $RD3 caps with Permeability.

Title: Re: [WTB] Round 3 KeyCap Set
Post by: tricheboars on Thu, 11 April 2013, 13:26:35: damn. so close. i could almost taste it.

any takers for a typenow solid board? ~~I am willing to pay $125~~ for the caps which will leave someone with a ~~$200~~ TypeNow Solid with Cherry MX Browns. Pretty good deal. Come on. you know you want it.

Edit: It has been suggested to me by a few people not to pay this much for these caps. I may wait as something great is in the works apparently. Lets just say smiles smiles smiles for what i want! :p :p :p

In the meantime I am willing to revise my buy to $90 as the "other" option may not see a delivery for quite some time. Still pretty good deal since Round3TKL kits were going for $66 on the leftovers sale. However, that was the round 4 leftover sale and these caps are the original ROUND 3 set i believe. I will buy them buy them buy them.

I AM SORRY mmmmty and others about this confusion. Let's just say some wiser people around geekhack have been friendly! PM me if you have any questions.

Post by: Tylerbrainerd on Mon, 15 April 2013, 19:07:11: I'm also looking for a round 3 set, preferably alphas only, as I use a 60% kbt pure (which has a weird shift on the right and won't work with the plain modifiers).
