Thanks for all of you who are quick payers.

I'm not in dire need for the dyes so you can wait until they stock up on the colours I want.

This is probably the one time I'm doing this unless interest gets big again, then I'll wait until their next 25% off sale.  It just doesn't make sense for me to keep going down there to try and stock up for people.

That makes sense. I can deal with that.
It shouldn't be too hard to get the rest of the stuff I want myself.

Thanks everyone who paid promptly.  I know this going live was unexpected, but I couldn't pass up the sale, especially since I doubt we'd get a better price than that.

And thanks again for doing this for us. I'm going to have to find some IBM spares from unicomp to see how good this stuff is.

Since this is an interest check, I would like to express interest for another group buy in the future if another sale comes around.

Nubbs motivated me to try out the idye poly.  I dyed my alphas this weekend with the gunmetal dye and it turned out pretty good.  I think I'll dye them some more to get them a little darker though.  I actually sucessfully dyed the ABS spacebar by just dunking it in the dye for only about 20 seconds after bringing it to a boil and taking the pot off the flame.  Its a bit splotchy but I'm sure it will look better if I hit it with the dye again.

The gunmetal looks more blue that I hoped, but maybe because its next to your blue mods.

I would probably describe it as a blue grey myself.  It reminds me of the blue grey anodized case that the Duck Viper/Eagle just released.  I'm not sure why, but for some reason the 'N' key
and '6' key came out darker then than the others for me.  Hopefully, when I hit it with another round of Dye they will all be a similar shade.

Alright, everyone who I was able to cover their IC for is paid and shipped.  Locking the thread.  I may have some extras to go out to some people or to put up in the classifieds, but that's something I'll figure out later.
