Lmao. Coming from you, whose only purpose on this forum seems to be making cheap jokes and taking out your frustration on whoever happens to be around, I'll take that as a badge of honor.
I think I'll frame it and hang it on my wall.
What would be amazing is if GMK shared the MOQ across variants of basekits that work for the regions involved. Some regions are ISO vs ANSI. Some are 6.25u vs 7u. I would never use ISO in my case, but still pay for it, to get the base kit.
I’m more than happy to pay for extension kits, for more niche layouts like HHKB and Alice. Also okay with a numpad child kit. And accent kits.
I think that would be a better outcome for a customer perspective. Probably a nightmare for SKUs though lol.
Exactly. From a vendor's perspective, it's usually not worth splitting the Numpad from the Base Kit for GMK runs. It has been experimented with over the past few years on a handful of sets, and it worked better for some than for others depending on the colorway. The main issue is that if the Base Kit sells out, vendors are often left with dead stock of Numpad Kits, which usually translates into lost money.
Again, this isn't how I would normally kit a set. This was an experiment on my part because I firmly believe that most potential buyers and MTNU fans already have an MTNU WoB set lying around, and a large portion of those who don't simply aren't interested in a numpad.
It would be great to have accurate statistics, but based on my understanding and conversations with vendors, 6.25u bottom rows are used far more than people think, and a significant portion of European buyers have transitioned to ANSI (myself included). Of course, it's still important to offer ISO support and an International Kit for that niche of buyers.
