UPDATE 8/24/2017
It's official - The GMK LedZep GB (https://thekey.company/collections/group-buys/products/gmk-ledzep) is incoming this Saturday, 08/26/17!
We are working on an EU proxy, should have it sorted by Saturday. We also have a proxy set up in China and Vietnam.
A lot of this is mirrored on the website, but since you're here:
The FAQ
Who designed this? JPJ?
GMK LedZep was designed by the mega-talented /u/thesiscamper.
How long do I have to participate in the GB?
The GB will run for one month, ending at 11:59pm EST on 9/26/17.
Who am I trusting my money with?
TKC. We designed and ran GMK >Terminal_ (https://thekey.company/collections/group-buys/products/gb-gmk-terminal_-preorder) in case you missed it. =)
$169?!?
While it's awesome for our fellow Europeans, being a US-based company we are fighting a much stronger Euro this time around versus >Terminal_. There's no way to sugarcoat that unfortunately. It's a comprehensive set and we hope you see the value in the coverage. Please also note that just like the last rodeo, we are -not- padding shipping - upon checkout shipping will auto-calculate based on destination.
Speaking of shipping, I'm international and I don't want to wait weeks like I did for >Terminal_. Please?
We got you fam. DHL has been implemented for international destinations, with very little additional cost versus slow as molasses USPS International Parcel. It's safer, faster, and trackable to all destinations, something USPS was not.
Does LedZep cover my board?
See the product page for a roundup, and here is >Terminal_'s coverage on various layouts that should give you an idea of what proper profiles will look like with LedZep.
I don't need most of the keys. Do you offer a "base" set?
Due to MOQ restrictions, this -is- the base set. Don't fret though, as we will have more affordable options with less comprehensive coverage in the future based on some upcoming designs we hope you'll enjoy.
Is there fun stuff again?
Of course. We have some great accessories that would aid in decking out your LedZep set up, and every 20th base set sold will include...drum roll...a LedZep themed HungerWorksStudio artisan! Oh yeah baby. Big ups to Robert and his team for working with us again on a great giveaway to LedZep supporters!
I have questions not answered in this FAQ.
Reply to this thread. We're here for you.
Thanks all.

Hey everyone! We hope you all are having a great week.
As we're sure many of you may have read by now, GMK Led Zep (https://thekey.company/collections/group-buys/products/gmk-ledzep) will be entering GB! We are beyond excited that after working with /u/thesiscamper on renders for GMK >Terminal_, we're now privileged to feature this awesome keyset he has designed. You know the drill: 1 month group buy period, manufactured by GMK, available accessories (https://thekey.company/collections/group-buys/products/add-on-gmk-ledzep-mousepad-sticker), and unparalleled coverage for most of your favorite layouts.
As stipulated on LedZep's product page, we have moved the GB start date to 08/26/17. Instead of boring you with the drawn out reasons why, here's the nitty gritty - as we discussed in our blog post blog post here (https://thekey.company/blogs/blog-updates/its-time-for-us-to-sit-in-a-circle-and-have-a-serious-discussion) (56K warning), >Terminal_ is 98.8% fulfilled. Offering USPS International Parcel as a shipping option is a huge reason why we're still shooting for 100% fulfillment. The endgame is near, as we've negotiated with DHL to offer comparably priced shipping to international destinations, with much less headache and tons more security and ship-to-delivery tracking. The automated shipping quotes on the site will not be implemented in time for GB launch this Saturday as originally planned, hence the 1 week reschedule. We hope you understand that the GB start date was moved to accommodate all our fellow mech heads worldwide!
Alright, enough of that drivel. We care that everyone gets their order, now you know if you didn't. =) Here's the VH1 *Behind the Music* inside scoop on GMK LedZep - continuing the clean, classic inspiration that produced 1965 (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=86143.0), /u/thesiscamper took Led Zeppelin's Mothership (https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61b1-XRK4hL.jpg) vinyl cover and spun it into this rockin' keyset. True to form, the Pantone color selections were carefully curated as an homage to this classic album design. Nine novelty keycaps are included to aid in customizing to your heart's content, with red alternates to bring it on home. See what we did there.
Just like last time, we have a couple of treats in store for GB'ers, so keep an eye out. Visit The Key Dot Company (http://thekey.company) to sign up for our mailing list if you haven't already. We appreciate you all! Thank you GH!
