Title: Troubled minds Keycaps ?
Post by: DillonHightower on Wed, 14 June 2017, 20:54:06
So,
What is the deal with no one doing round 2 On the troubled minds key cap set? Lots of people are saying the time frame is to far, Or they will do it when extra time is available, but it has nearly been a year and a half, with tons of interest. And yet no one has pulled the trigger to get the buy going?
Is there something I am missing? There are 100s of people on mass drop begging for round 2 with SA, Tons of people interested in a variant of GMK.  I have been searching every day on multiple forms for a set to be for sale with no luck. So why are we not making this happen?
I have no clue where or how to start, I am just a buyer that wants to jump on the train. Or I would be pushing this as we speak. 
So for the love of the keycap GOD, please someone make this buy happen again . Preferably with SA caps . But if GMK is the only option, Ill even partake in that buy. I just want a set for my own build.... IS that to much to ask ..  :-[ :-[

At this point there's probably multiple factors involved.  SP SA is heavily backlogged to the point right now with 12 months of backlog per current check of PMK.  It might also be that thesiscamper is busy with other things. 

A GMK set might work if someone wants to run with it.  That person would need to either get the vector info from thesiscamper or recreate them for any novelties.  You'd also be looking at a slight color difference given GMK instead of SP ABS colors.  You'd also need to line up a vendor and get pricing into or have the vendor handle those elements.

GMK's backlog isn't much better. I think it's between 3 and 6 months right now.

Throw up a post on mm and here on gh.  Had mine up for a few days and got a set with novelties.  Just takes a little patience and luck dude.  Gl

GMK's certainly more popular these days.  They've lowered their MoQs, added colors, and don't have the lead times of SP yet.

I did both . Had one offer to sell for around 400.00. Little more than I was down for. now post is lost in the mega thread. But I re-post abot every week with high hopes.. For now I am settling on the massdrop carbon set. Just wanting someone to step up and make it happen . I like SA a little better , but would jump on a GMK version as well if it happens.
