[IC] Color Packs
« on: Sat, 31 October 2015, 10:41:21 »
This is more of a suggestion than an actual interest check precursing a group buy lead by me.

I think it would be really cool to have a single group buy that has several color packs bundled into one.

I'm not sure if this hasn't been done yet because GMK counts MOQs in single colors, please tell if that's the case.

These are the mock-ups I have done, showing the idea:





I don't have any reputation to run a group buy, but maybe someone else would be interested to run this.

For something like this to succeed I think you would need someone to buy out the MOQs and resell them on-demand at retail.

Elite keyboards already has many of these type caps for sale.

I would personally love to see a GB for GMK blank mods, but I have no idea about the demand for that.

Most of the keys in your mock are in previous GB. I don't think there is a large demand for those to hit MOQ.

These colors are just what I like, people can suggest different ones, if the general idea is something people are interested in.
