[GB] Round One, “Go-popper”, A 2-in-1 Aluminum Switch Opener

Round One Group Buy on Go-popper

For those who have not notified the IC page for Go-popper, it is a compact, portable, handy, and durable switch opener that helps mechanical keyboard lovers to open the switch FAST & SAFELY and with 200% convenience. This idea was heavily driven by our personally experienced difficulties or unsatisfied experiences with opening switches with tools based on demands of lubing/replacing switches and replacing keycaps. It was the point that we realized we could not find a truly beneficial and useful tool for opening switches.

Secured by non-slip o-ring rubbers, Go-popper has two sides: one for Cherry MX switches, the other for Kailh BOX switches.

Features

-Both MX and Kailh box switch compatible
-Made of Aluminum, CNC processed and anodized
-Texture: Matte
-Packaging: Paper box with environmentally-friendly recycle paper & custom EVA foam

Feb 17, 2021 UPDATE

Hey guys, Happy New Year.

The Group Buy on Go-popper officially ended on Feb 09, 2021, EST. The final confirmed collections based on the responses we gathered are far away beyond our expectations. We couldn’t say a word or several words to express how appreciated and thrilled we are. We cannot walk this far without every one of you in the community. Because of your undoubted support and trust, although the group buy was just ended, we still receive several messages regarding how to purchase it.

Therefore, we decided to make it still available for purchase, but the price will not remain the same. We didn’t want to make any profit on the just-ended group buy because to benefit the community with things we have was and will always be our primary purpose. After several revisions and adjustments to the design, we now firmly believe that the Go-popper has its unique value and even can become a prominent tool. That’s why we are here to announce that Go-popper will be one of our first products and will be always available for purchasing.

Accordingly, the regular price on each Go-popper will not be the same as that over the group-buy. The price of each Go-popper will be added on for US$5.00-US$8.00, depends on the colors. The cost of the raw material of the e-white Go-popper is relatively higher than the others. Hence, the regular price of an e-white go-popper is slightly more expensive.

Another thing that needs to be noticed is that the navy blue Go-popper will temporarily no longer being put under any mass production after the group buy.


Since Group Buy’s form is no longer receiving responses, here is another form we use to collect regular purchases on Go-popper

The regular price of each Go-popper is listed as follows:

Regular Price of Go-popper
Color               Unit Price (Shipping Fee excluded)
Black                US$35.00
Space Grey       US$35.00
E-white             US$38.00

The shipping fee per order will also be adjusted for regular purchases. We’ve learned that due to COVID-19, worldwide logistics are experiencing unprecedented difficulty in transporting products across borders of countries. Meanwhile, the limited employee availability restricts the situation and even makes it harder. We have to admit that under this situation, it is challenging for us to waive shipping fees of the delivery to some countries that we need to apply more attention and efforts to local logistics, of which policies are always changing, revising, and updating.

The list includes all the countries and regions where we can provide a free shipment. If your current residence is not on the list, the invoice received will be added on with a standard shipping fee range from US$5.00 to US$10.00.

I got 3 invoices emailed to me, but I'm pretty sure I only asked for 1 switch opener. Should I just pay for one of the invoices?

Just paid the invoice and realized the shipping address is wrong. Could we update it to match the billing address (I'm in the USA, not Uganda )? The Invoice ID is INV2-3XT6-ZX53-2KDP-L5EU. Thanks!

Hey Buck, oops sorry my bad . The shipping address went wrong, probably because Paypal did not identify the address appropriately. Since the invoice details cannot be modified once it is paid, we will use your billing address as the actual shipping address. No worries!
