Title: Anyone else have trouble with their massdrop DSA Dolch keyset? wrong keys?
Post by: roksprok on Sat, 13 June 2015, 04:06:01

Today my DSA Dolch set came.  Its great, except that I got 2 2.25 and 1 1.75 shift keys.  Ended up getting no 2.75 keys.  In the pics of the keyset it clearly comes with 1 2.75, 1 2.25, and 1 1.75.  Anyone else have similar problems?  Is this going to happen with my granite set too?

Random missing/duplicate keys are an issue with every set - most people get what they should, some people get lucky and get useful extras, but sometimes an important key is missing like in your set.  Hopefully you'll not be unlucky with granite too but there are no guarantees.

Did it ship from massdrop or direct from Signature Plastics?  I expect whoever shipped it to you sorted the caps so you need to contact them to request the missing shift, hopefully they have spares.

Oh and welcome to GH :)

Thanks for the welcome!

The set was shipped from massdrop, but I'm not sure who bagged it up and would have the extras.  Seems like the best thing to do is just ask Massdrop support for the extra key, hopefully it won't take too long.  If anyone else had the opposite problem, PM me and we can do a swap. 

Its good to hear its a pretty normal thing, as its my first keyset I thought I was crazy for a bit.
