Not expecting mine for another couple of weeks (mind you, it has got a long way to swim ...).

Mine will be here on Saturday, also got a local friend who ordered two bags.

Its my first crap bag, what can I expect? are they all just missprints and mess ups, or are there actually any good caps in any of these.

Most of them will be good, but odds are you will never find a complete set! There will be several messed up caps, which you will either want to throw out or keep as souvenirs. Also you may find some lovely one-off caps in there!

Post by: Jixr on Fri, 28 February 2014, 09:45:22

yeah, i'm not expecting full sets, but I guess depending on what I get I'll order another bag if they still have some.

I really like the idea of making a unicorn board for the lulz, though I just sold my last extra board I had laying around.

The two that come to mind are the plum retro dsa geekhack key and the geekhack backspace key and a deformed key that reminds me of a crowbar.

And the pile of keys made for a cool pic for a mousepad.

Those are some seriously cool pictures.

The one killer for me was the shipping to the UK. Combine that with the customs charge I would have to pay, and it would cost me like $80/90 for all that stuff :(

Here's the ones I found kind of interesting.  I have a ton of boring ones too and a bag of useless stuff and ML, but didn't shoot that.

To start, the perfect cap for Spamray and a potentially kinky cap.  Too bad they're ML.

(http://i.imgur.com/rEOMozl.jpg)


What are these abortions of caps?  I mean, seriously, what are they?  They're thin as hell (at least the grey ones are) and are no bigger than a switch.  Also got one of those weird "gamer" caps and a clear top to something.

(http://i.imgur.com/0KfjZii.jpg)


German caps?

(http://i.imgur.com/rSORpOm.jpg)


DCS "jellies".  They've got a jelly look to them and are semi-translucent.

(http://i.imgur.com/I2FyHLF.jpg)


Bunch of SA and maybe SS profile blanks.  Have I mentioned how much I despise this profile?

(http://i.imgur.com/ocuLkFX.jpg)


A bunch of DCS and something that seems lower than DCS blanks.  Some wonky Cherry MX stems there too.

(http://i.imgur.com/1bqfTVU.jpg)


Bunch of DSA blanks.  Some seem thinner than normal.

(http://i.imgur.com/cmSVotv.jpg)


Stuff from GBs.  Hyperfuse, Valentines, and the Lavendar are sexy. The Blue and Charcoal in the back is sexy as hell too, but I hate the profile.

(http://i.imgur.com/fTin5Pk.jpg)


Some cool windowed DSA.

(http://i.imgur.com/fssQtPZ.jpg)


Some interesting legend caps in various profiles.  I don't think Bill Gates would approve of the Windows logos.

(http://i.imgur.com/GvIBgnT.jpg)


Change with a little red dyesub (maybe?) shooting star and a mu key.

(http://i.imgur.com/yBSGW6j.jpg)


2.5 lbs and only two Alps.  I am much disappoint.

(http://i.imgur.com/ekpw0qH.jpg)

(http://i.imgur.com/SWiFAiG.jpg)


The interesting novelty caps and such.  Love the lotus and the hands are okay.  TGIF is some weird square mount.  The anchors are interesting, but I have no clue what they're from.

PM me and we'll figure it out.  I'm a cheap date for those who want something that I don't really need or want, not someone looking to charge $1-4 for a cap.  I'm even cheaper if you have something you're interested in trading from your bags.

Ok, I must have that lotus cap.  Translucent pink lotus? So sexy, so awesome.

It's sad that that's the only awesome stuff you got in your bag though.  No cool random text caps?

And I just realized, I got the RSS cap in translucent red instead of orange like it's supposed to be.

The "Halten mit Notiz" and the "Wiederherstellen" ones are German, but the rest is definitely not German. It looks rather Scandinavian to my untrained eye.

"Wiederherstellen" means "restore" and "Halten mit Notiz" is hard to translate for me since I don't really understand in which context it is used here, but I guess it means something like "hold the transaction (or whatever) and add a note to it".

Like nubbinator, I also wish there were more ALPs keys.  I managed to get two.

Aside from getting only a few novelty keys, I've had some cool pulls. 

Here are a bunch that I set here for show (ignore the giant wooden space bar)
(http://i.imgur.com/trGrmNh.jpg)

German? Scandinavian? caps and black DSAs
(http://i.imgur.com/OxTGoKO.png)

Moar DSAs.  Subscript keys are quite interesting.

Two ALPs keys and a few MLs.  The teal, camera, and Impendance ML are cool; however, I'd rather have these in ALPs.

Like nubbinator, I also wish there were more ALPs keys.  I managed to get two.

So basically, the world needs more Alps DSA cap group buys, so that there’ll start being more random ones left over in next year’s crap bags.

If only there wasn’t a mismatch between caps for Alps-style stabilizers and Costar-style stabilizers, I think Alps caps from SP would be more popular. As it is, you almost have to have a custom plate + pcb to use the larger SP Alps caps.

Or even on the existing Alps keyboards which use Costar-style stabilizers, so many have those stupid “bigass” enter keys (usually thin ABS with a shoddily printed legend), which are mostly impossible to replace with anything better looking.

There’s a sort of chicken and egg problem here. But since Matias switches are pretty cheap and easily available (and not bad to type on), here’s hoping that some custom Alps plates + pcbs will come into fashion [e.g. Alps ergodox, etc., would be great], and people will start buying more keycaps to put on them.

Have there even been any group buys for DSA Alps caps? I’d even love a batch of PBT blanks, since SP’s inventory only seems to have ABS blanks in some gray color. But pad printed PBT would also be nice, as would double-shots of decorative elements in nice colors.

There have been some ICs for Alps GBs and I've said give them to me, colors be damned in every one I've seen, but none have actually happened.  I'll need some for my Sprit Alps board when that finally happens.

Alps are just fun in general though.  Maybe I'll do a random Alps Geekhack or novelty key group buy.  Something to think about.

There might have been some interesting random text caps but I didn't stick around long and left the rest to my buddies.  The pink lotus cap is actually my favorite.  It's also glow-in-the-dark.  :)

Now I secretly hate you, but don't really.

behonest, you still secretly hate him

It's more of a respect hate...but yeah, you're right.

The "sök kund" is Swedish I think. It means "Search customer".

No idea :o

Some of the caps I really liked are SA caps in colorways I've never seen before. There were some brown on beige and beige on brown I think, maybe a variation on the coffee set. And there were some of what I'm assuming are the filco SA caps and they are really nice.

Nothing amazing, not bad though. I didn't really get any WoB keycaps though, which is a plus. This is only about half of it, the others are either non mx, bad, or ones I missed and didn't pick out. I got some "single shot" doubleshots though, pretty cool imo. Lots of dsa, and more than enough blank dsa keycaps for alphas. Lots of these tiny mx keycaps in random transparent colors. I'll look into what I got more later.

I've got a bunch of the POS keys that I can't use on anything else due to their stem locations if you're interested in them.  PM me if you want some.  I can take some pictures for you.

Here's the ones I found kind of interesting.  I have a ton of boring ones too and a bag of useless stuff and ML, but didn't shoot that.

To start, the perfect cap for Spamray and a potentially kinky cap.  Too bad they're ML.

What are these abortions of caps?  I mean, seriously, what are they?  They're thin as hell (at least the grey ones are) and are no bigger than a switch.  Also got one of those weird "gamer" caps and a clear top to something.

I'm rearranging all of them on my desk, i didn't even realize. Literally 99% of my keycaps are cherry mx, pretty good, I am going to see if I can make a good unicorn board with all the same profile. I am actually pleased, I didn't get but a few novelty keycaps though. They will go on my poker I guess, I don't have any QFR's anymore.

Someone on reddit got a keycap that says "Mega Millions" lol I want that XD

I'm the lucky guy who scored that "Mega Millions" cap.  I've seen a few other people get similar keys.  Looks like they went on the register at a gas station or something.

And you can't get them anywhere through conventional means.  Occasionally, very occasionally, they might be featured in a GB, or as a giveaway from those who make them, but otherwise very difficult to find.

They were THE keycap to look out for in last year's crap bags.

Went through my Non-novelty keys.

Managed to put together some relatively symmetrical DSA and SA sets for the poker2.
Only missing a few modifiers and space bars for both profiles.

Okay, just spent half an hour going through my bag. Seemed to get a lot less symbols than most people but did get the RSS feed poly and a cute little duck my wife has already claimed. Only other symbols are usual OS keys.

(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-ves6xnY6EkM/UxRKIN1-IYI/AAAAAAAACoA/LCD_1LL-o3w/w1336-h1002-no/IMG_20140303_011511.jpg)

Did get a lovely quantity of plain DCS caps in a variety of colors including some clear and jellys, four alps and two of their rounded gamer keys to try.

(https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-u3DMKh1J02g/UxRKPVHWa5I/AAAAAAAACok/YPRjJ717FoA/w1598-h711-no/IMG_20140303_011534.jpg)

DSA is what I'm using these days and did get a fair amount of them to play with. A few more colors and maybe a couple of clears/polys would have been nice but I guess they just haven't been made. Did get a bunch of unusual legends, a number of windowed and a few different fonts on them though, see below :)

(https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-tOt5LGZo7To/UxRKUWf8lfI/AAAAAAAACpA/xSGD7nb53mQ/w1598-h755-no/IMG_20140303_011459.jpg)

Also a large quantity of SS/SA profile to try. Very heavy and slick, unlikely to have enough for a TKL but will be fun to try typing on. About 5-6 of them were semi-clear with a colored red, green or blue transparent center. Probably look cool on a blacklit keyboard.

Unfortunately also had a handful of broken/malformed stem caps and 3-4 handfuls of non-MX mounts including a couple of stem-types, some Cherry ML, a couple of that seem to pinch onto something and some Cherry-MX but-very-small-caps others have already mentioned.

Overall a fun $30. Would be nice if future sets let you choose a profile but I think that's unlikely :)

This is just pics of what people got.  Really it should probably be in the media section (the last thread was, for last year's crap bag).

You'll probably get people posting pictures of what they got here, and someone sees it and immediately posts "I want that".

I imagine the classifieds thread will see a bit more traffic once the excitement has passed (probably about a week before I get my bag *sigh*).

Anyone get blank colored keycaps? (not DSA or SA or any of that)

I got quite a bit but I was wondering what colors everyone else got. At the very least I want a new green for this since the one I have is a bit defective and wavy on the top so it reflects light really weird.
I want it to be the same color though, not a different shade.
(http://i.imgur.com/pLL9EJz.jpg)
The defect is impossible to get a picture of, but trust me this is not perfect and the light reflection is kind of driving me nuts.
Here is the "rainbow" I have right now.

I so want one in toxic colors now.  But I don't want to ask bunny if he can request it.  I sent mkawa a pic of it with a comment to the extent of it looks like they ran out of one color and another color started in the middle of this cap.  He responded that they actually have two colors of plastic in separate hoppers with something else that prevents the colors from mixing into a third color during the pour/injection process.

After looking at just this last page in this thread, I've come to the conclusion that SP screwed me on my grab bag. Only a couple interesting keys (lots of "Other Fuel" and "Auto Probe" keys, as well as LOTS of white-on-black keys, unfortunately not enough for a full keyset...), and lots and lots of utter CRAP! I suppose that's why they're called crap bags though, so I can't complain too much...

If anyone is looking for anything in particular, let me know, I'll see if I can help you out. Otherwise, most of these keys are going to be ****-canned...

So I think I did alright. I got 3 alps keys, which is awesome. I have no idea what the hand key was supposed to be for, but it's interesting. The pink exit cap is my fav out of all. :3 Too bad I don't have an alps board.
I also got 2 linux 1.25 caps, which are not pictured.
AND white/green GEEKHACK!!
I'd be interested in trading anything in the pics for other cool keycaps or keyboard stuff.

So I think I did alright. I got 3 alps keys, which is awesome. I have no idea what the hand key was supposed to be for, but it's interesting. The pink exit cap is my fav out of all. :3 Too bad I don't have an alps board.
I also got 2 linux 1.25 caps, which are not pictured.
AND white/green GEEKHACK!!
I'd be interested in trading anything in the pics for other cool keycaps or keyboard stuff.

Very dull showing for me this time round. No day 9s, no spacebars at all, very few modifiers. A good selection of the Dark SA and SA blanks, not much else to speak of.

A couple of stoner smileys here, Mana bottle, RSS, a weird diamond, black on red spot 1.5, and a couple of alps. nearly a full set of anchor arrows. One relegendable with cap.
[attach=1]

Nothing much in the partials, nor the DCS mods.
[attach=2][attach=3]

Big damn heap of SA, lots of various coloured blanks, lotus, a BEER Break and a salvo, and a couple of the blue transparents
[attach=4]

About 30 DSA and 100 DCS blanks of varying colours. Only 20 POS this time (about 100 last time) but loads of the non-mx stuff, 40 of the long spouts, 30 ML, 20 other odd ones.

Im content with it, the SA is very useful. But utterly dull, nothing surprising except a misprint shift with what looks a bit like a space ship.

yes, mismould seemed rather gauche, it was an error in the fabrication of the structure of the outer layer. You know, a misprint :) Last time there was a stack of WoB G keys mis made, and this time some BoY G keys with the same problem. I suspect their G mould is a bit borderline.

Welcome to Geekhack!

No, sadly they are somewhat limited (although you might think otherwise based on how many people post pictures here), and this round has finished.

Judging by previous years, they might do another one nearer the end of this year.

2 bags sorted

i could like write up descriptions of what is in these pictures but :P the pictures do suck though cause my camera just seems to be taking bad photos and i already packed everything up. 1/3 of the 2 bags was garbage, either not MX, defects, not part of a normal key cap set (keys like PROBE), or a combination of the above

more than 1/3 of the bag was either white, grey, or black(mostly black) DCS Blanks, enough blanks that i could make an entire ergodox set and TKL set twice with just with a few bucks filling in the blanks via SP's blank inventory outlet.

Sorting that entire bag was way more tiring than it should have been. I got lots of WoB/blanks(DCS,DSA,SA,SS?) not a whole lot of color unfortunately. Too lazy to go back and take a picture of everything so here is the one Alps key(PBT dye sub!) I found and most of the non-standard key caps.

Found a few alphas from some previous group buys(Raindrop, CCnG, and maybe one or two more)

I decided to not be lazy any more and got all the keys back out and took pics of stuff. This is, for the most part, all up for grabs if anyone needs any pieces to complete their set. I was so close to getting a complete ten key set of WoB's to replace the worn ones on my Rosewill. :(

I remember someone mentioning they wanted that set of dark dark brown SA's. I have some of those, including a couple of the ten keys.

^ Are those black and white keycaps blank?  DSA or DCS (they don't really look DSA)?

Title: Re: What'd you get in your grab bag?
Post by: Euf0ria on Mon, 10 March 2014, 02:16:35

^ Yes they are all blanks. Im guessing these will end up on my future plan for an ergodox=)

The Profile is a big question to me as well and if you look at the photo below you can see a cap taken from a Steelseries 6gv2 and one from SP. SPs seems lower in general?

I split a bag and for the sake of sanity, these are the only keys I picked out.

Not as many point of sale caps as last year which is nice.  TONS of WoB/Blank SA profile keys and the usual DCS/DSA stuff.

That pink lotus cap is so nice looking!

The SteelSeries keycaps are probably OEM profile, which is higher than SP's DSA.

I think you mean DCS? The pic shows cylindrical keys, DSA are spherical.

DSA are the low profile spherical ones - most other sets are taller :)

SA are the tall spherical ones.

Finally had a chance to sort mine, more or less.

Three pink (all claimed by my daughter):

[attachimg=1]

A few brown ones:

[attachimg=2]

A little bit or purple:

[attachimg=3]

Some orange, but no GH60 backspace :(

[attachimg=4]

Depressingly few yellow:

[attachimg=5]

A bit of red:

[attachimg=6]

Lots of green, mostly SA from Commando set:

[attachimg=7]

Some blue, with quite a few SA profile:

[attachimg=8]

Not that many white on black, lots of SA again:

[attachimg=9]

Various on white/gray:

[attachimg=10]

My favourites in this bag are these ones:

[attachimg=11]

My top favourite (which says something about what I got in my crap bag) is the silver Esc:

[attachimg=12]

And hey look, an upside down Awesome Face ...

[attachimg=13]

Lots and lots with non-MX stems, like large round stems similar to BS but not BS, a few with those two little spikes underneath, and few random ones I had no idea about, and one Alps.  Oh, and no space bar.

These keys were the ones that stood out for me. The first three are useless and the dark grey ones are my only two Alps keycaps... and it's a shame that the relegendable caps come with the wrong window so it is useless too.
Cool keys are the polycarb red Capslock, the old windows logo and the SA and DSA keys.
The bottom row I will use to put on my switch tester, matching the MX switches underneath. :)

Sorting that entire bag was way more tiring than it should have been. I got lots of WoB/blanks(DCS,DSA,SA,SS?) not a whole lot of color unfortunately. Too lazy to go back and take a picture of everything so here is the one Alps key(PBT dye sub!) I found and most of the non-standard key caps.

Found a few alphas from some previous group buys(Raindrop, CCnG, and maybe one or two more)

Notable keycaps:
5 black flat keycap http://keyshop.pimpmykeyboard.com/product/family-g20-esportsgaming
1 hearty apple http://www.keypop.net/product/hearty-apple-keycap
1 lotus
1 flat square button
3 arrow keys with bump
3 glow in the dark http://www.keypop.net/product/gid-glow-in-the-dark-esc-key
1 commando Enter & backspace http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=45655.0
Some jackpot keycaps (Mega million, mega-flier, lotto, little lotto, pick4)
2 DVMS (what does it means?) orange
1 P jeans
1 Shoe repair
1 Sea food
1 EU US
5 ALPS keycaps (I think)

Overall, I'm fairly satisfied with the fast shipping to Canada and the content of my bag.

Quote from: elttaboi on Wed, 05 March 2014, 04:49:37

So I think I did alright. I got 3 alps keys, which is awesome. I have no idea what the hand key was supposed to be for, but it's interesting. The pink exit cap is my fav out of all. :3 Too bad I don't have an alps board.
I also got 2 linux 1.25 caps, which are not pictured.
AND white/green GEEKHACK!!
I'd be interested in trading anything in the pics for other cool keycaps or keyboard stuff.

A lot of blank colors. ML caps top-right.

Just curious - what would be the ultimate way of sorting all these keycaps?

I'd guess first by colour, then by stem within each colour group, then by profile?

So you'd have one pile for yellow MX DCS, one for yellow Alps DCS, one for yellow random DCS, one for yellow MX SA, and so on.

Lots of little piles, but I see lots of people sorting by colour, profile, stem and even arranging them in legend order.

How do you sort yours?

When Sifo, Elton, Halverson, and I sorted Halverson's three(?) crap bags, we sorted them into piles of matching colors and stems types.

Depends on your bag I guess. I went for the stem first, then sorted by colour, profile, blanks and misfires.

Curious as to who ordered those Swedish caps from SP. A few others have posted in this thread as well. A Swedish company/retailer probably must have ordered them which is quite notable considering the relative size of the country. Probably quite a large company who has decided to get mechanical keyboards in larger numbers for their employees.
