RETRO Group Buy Info

[OnTheBrink]

Is there going to be another RETRO group buy at any time soon. This one I am talking about:

Or maybe if someone has the RGB symbol version for sale?

i ran a interest check earlier but someone said that the soware replica is close enough, though i think they look different enough to warrant another gb.. if you start a group buy for RETRO ill def be in it

I'm new to doing such. How would I start a group but and who makes this set that I can order from in bulk?

I really want a Round 3/ Round 4 looking set of Keycaps. I will DEFINITELY purchase a set if we start a new Group Buy. Hell, I have been offering to purchase a Round 3 set on the classifieds for some time with no luck.

Something like this:


or spherical retro/DSA style caps.  Really i just want something old school mixed in with my custom poker.  The CCnG look good...just not good enough.

If I can learn how to start a group but or someone can give me information on where to purchase the retro sets at bulk, I will definitely take the time out to create one.

I'm sure creating an order can't be hard and I can study the previous GB to use as a template, but where are we buying them from?

I sent an inquiry to GMK. I will see what they can do and once I receive pricing and information, I will begin the group buy.

Most of the hold up is over the fact that 7bit is wrapping up his Round 4 Group Buy, which includes the Round 3 set. It's been going on forever to hear people talk. Since additional Round 3 sets are just around the corner and so many orders have already been paid for them, there's nothing to do but wait. 

I too have been wanting a set since I first saw them back in November of last year.

fair enough about the round 4 nonsense. but we can offer a retro group buy that separates us from Round 3/4 group buys.  DSA Spherical with Dolch colors, old school typeface, center legend, large legend, etc.

we could even do a retro style keycap set with more modern coloring to interest others. i am not as creative as some of you here but i hope you get what i mean.

all i know is i need a retro set of keys for my 60% with an aluminum case. there is something about the mixture of modern and retro that i just freaking love. and while i admit the hunt for hard to find keycaps etc is fun, my quest for the round 3 set is a little tiring.

plus my [WTB] Round 3 Keycap Set didnt go anywhere...

should we move this to the Interest Check forum?  i have never done a group buy, and i have no idea how to do one. but if i can help in anyway to get this moving it would be my pleasure.

Retro Blue and Retro Green are coming soon, and are nicely described above.

that sounds dope and all but i really like the idea of a dolch retro set or something either grey or blackish. at least with an aluminum case.  of course if beast sells cases that have some color to them i will buy the **** out of a blue and green retro set.

i wants to see!

I have already created an IC thread and waiting on 7bit for the legends as SC is on deck waiting for it to start. A lot of people expressed interest so I will be doing a GB as soon as possible.

YES! Exactly the look I've always wanted! How do I subscribe to this thread? I want to be part of a group buy for Retro keycaps! (but not black-white)
