About This Deal
Please Note:

You had me at hello.
Being a cautious buyer, I'll hold off on ordering till there are more details nailed out, but I'm glad to see this set go to group buy.
-
Will buy when I return from my trip.
-
I have much to learn in the way of Group Buys...good thing SP is here to help...
-
That spacebar.. Such sexiness!
Now.. if only I had a keyboard to put it on, or it fit the Granite set.
Best of luck with the GB!

DCS PBT Spacebar from SP, that is new. Cool looking set, will probably pick up a set in early to mid June.

Nice work! I especially like the language in the description for the flipped spacebars.

Actually its a little embarassing...the wording could be better, lol. I do have an English degree, but that should say "this set of two flipped side printed spacebars if for those who like to type comfortably and live dangerously."
Not worth the trouble of having to resubmit it to do it all over...chock it up to me being a GB newb, lol.

What size is the spacebar? (Is standard 6x or 6.25x?)

Based on your question, the group buy has been changed to inform the general public about the spacebar sizing. Thank you very much! :thumb:

I don't like DCS any more but I do like Firefly so I am on the fence.

That's the beauty of this set. They are novelty keycaps, so you can either put them all on the number row, F row, or just one at time on the escape key. How novel!

Check it out...SP's PR dept. has done a nice job of making a banner to showcase this GB:

Did I really say this, because it is looking more like it's being land locked... :eek:

With 7 days left, it doesn't look like this Group Buy will be going anywhere...is it really the DCS that turns people off?

I think a lot of people have issues with SP's checkout system and give up.
And maybe there aren't that many people interested in this.
You'll find lots of people are interested at the IC phase but balk when it comes to GB phase.

Sorry that your efforts came to nothing. I ordered a set without any real SP problems. Mainly it was for Jayne's hat which someone wanted from it. I was hoping a few more would be sold once the end of the month payday showed, but I guess not so. I doubt non-DCS would have sold many more though.
Good luck with future themes :)
