He says the caps will come in at $80, but they appear to be $95 on his site, will they continue to go up at this point, or does anyone know if the price is different when you check out?

So I am about to order the Dolch keyset. I just have one question. There is this warning at the bottom "Note: Not all of the keycaps in the picture will be included.  Many of the extra keys such as the 1.75x right shift, legend tab, and 3 1x blank key (for Row B) will be included at a later time."

What exactly does this mean? I am not super into keysets so I do not know the specific sizes etc etc, will this effect me if I am just ordering it for my TKL board?

Yea. I was going to consider buying this but I didn't know what this last part meant.

they're probably being manufactured//sourced "currently" and they'll be selling them to you "eventually"

The Dolch set contains both types: 6.25 wide space bar for Filco/Ducky and 7 wide space bar like the original Dolch keyboards.

Includes both 6.25x and 7x spacebars. Your ducky/filcos use 6.25. The dolch keyset on originative will work with either of your keyboards perfectly.

But it doesn't say that on the description. I'd get it if I knew it would work with my Filco. It says it has a 7x space bar. It doesn't say anything about a 6.25x.

No need to doubt, originative's Dolch replica set definitely includes a 6.25x spacebar:

When will the Dolch be here? If I order some stickers with the dolch, could you ship them together to save on shipping? Can we order extra spacebars?

The Dolch will be here in about less than 1-2 months.  I added the information in the pre order saying that I will ship your whole order at once.  Extra spacebars will not be available.  Were you looking for a 6.25x and a 7x space bar, because they are both included.

So when you get a happy, you would still need to purchase the switches and caps (and leds if you want them), yes?  The happy kit just comes with the case and pcb?

Clearly says : 'Includes 104 keycap for modern full size keyboards (ie. Filco, CM Storm)' which means it has 6.25x
