Title: Mass Drop - WASD Code MX Clears (Full size) link - VOTE NOW
Post by: zig_ziglar on Sun, 04 May 2014, 04:57:42
https://www.massdrop.com/vote/gaming-keyboards (https://www.massdrop.com/vote/gaming-keyboards)  VOTE: WASD Code MX Clears (FULL SIZE). Come and help improve the likelihood of the Code with Clears becoming a reality on Mass Drop! Should be the last option in the list as I just submitted it.

Cheers

Didn't they just sell a code with clears?

They sold the green mx variant.

Correct. I don't know for certain whether or not WASD have produced enough keyboards to support a Mass Drop in addition to supplying the rampage of orders they should expect directly through their website, but hey - it's worth a shot. I definitely want one of these guys.

good luck

wasd won't sell clears at discounts. they saw that clears sell out in 5 hrs but greens never sell out, so I highly doubt they will do something with massdrop for clears unless they somehow don't sell a batch

I know, right.
I was expecting some clears that were easily purchasable, not a vote

Sorry dudes... definitely not a great find - more of a HOPE. Not sure who moved it ... it's a bit ambiguous as to which thread it belongs in I guess.

Voted for you although I'm more interested in the 55g topre (apparently no one else is though lol).

Still hold out for a novatouch myself.

no no no. people are very interested in a topre drop, its just that it isnt ever going to happen... so why bother voting.

novatouch maybe could be in a drop someday.  but only because it isnt sold by PFU and isnt considered part of the EliteKeyboards monopoly on US distribution of topre keyboards.

no one but elitekeyboards can sell topre boards here in the us legally.  hell even when someone did a group buy for a topre board on this site it caused a little controversy with elitekeyboards.

not that i blame elitekeyboards. i am sure they paid good money and effort getting the distribution deal with topre/pfu.

You do know that massdrop has already done a successful topre drop right?

@tricheboars that was boost's FC600C group buy. Brian from EK stepped in and asked that he not go through with it because it was a brand new board and form factor that he'd been working with Leopold for a while to get distribution here in the states.

The RF 55g has been out long enough that it probably wasn't a problem from EK's perspective that MassDrop do a GB for it.
