Love GMK above and beyond, but those lead-time are becoming surreal. Need to wait longer than for a hypercar

Many vendors have said that GMK leadtimes will not be as long people are speculating. Should be around the standard 1.5 year timeframe.

The GB is officially over! Some vendors will keep the group buy up for a couple more days, so you can still get it if you missed it. Otherwise, it has been a VERY successful group buy and final sales numbers will be announced in the coming days. Thank you to all!

Excited to see numbers, this set really rallied in a market that isn’t particularly friendly to GMK sets lately

Alphakeys customer here.

Alphakeys have gone radio silent and it doesn't look likely they will fulfil their Nimbus orders. Is there any way to find out if Alphakeys paid their bill to GMK for Nimbus?

I emailed alphakeys with no response and filed a paypal claim in order to get refunded - which they didn't repond to either.

For gmk nimbus buyers, it seems that vala supply will be filling for bankruptcy and will probably not be fulfilling orders if there are still some outstanding. Would recommend warning people not to buy from vala and doing the same of course. It's not confirmed but if they are ghosting designers it's a very good sign that something is going wrong.

edit: this is something I posted to make people aware that things could be going wrong for people with outstanding orders if there are any, this was just a recommendation to not buy anything as well, just in case of a worst case scenario. Please be careful and alert about things. Also if you do have an outstanding order, I would recommend a chargeback if possible, better to be safe than sorry.



Update - Vala has responded on discord and says that designers will be paid and that orders are still being fulfilled. Would still exercise caution and not order from vala without a way to chargeback but If they actually follow up on what they say than it's a good sign that they are gonna keep afloat.

cherry blacks - unlubed - filmed and springswapped with tx 55g mediums - alu Plate | pretty happy with this, the blacks were cherry picked so they weren't that scratchy to begin with, but currently breaking them in, may lube them with a dry lube like ro59 or ptfe powder.

lubed with tribosys 3203 | like topre a lot, prefer it lubed but did make less tactile but that might have been a skill issue. probably will get more tactile over time as the domes age.

bad orange alps lol | definitely needs a restoration. planning on wax boiling them and maybe a replacement pcb because the board has only 2 key rollover apparently.

gateron yellows - lubed with 205g0 - 62g tx mediums - pc plate | probably my favourite keyboard already, feels super nice and sounds pretty good, it's got a great layout as well. probably gonna build this with mx browns, I feel like it would suit the board more.

stock with silent reds | Pretty cool looking board, the silent reds are actually good, they are smooth and I don't mind the mushiness (it's not even that mushy as well). the layout is pretty weird, but is useable. will probably mod this in the future. maybe a pcb and plate swap, change the keycaps to something dolch like, and also spring swap the springs in the silent reds.

Vala’s been shipping in stock stuff till recently -I got something 3 weeks ago - and they haven’t paid designers at least some of what they were due for years now. Id make sure to use a credit card where they’d have your back about not shipping, absolutely, but I don’t know this is actually a significant change from who they always were.

I haven't been aware of vala for a while, so maybe that is the case. I still think it is important to make people aware somewhat, cause this is a pretty big red flag for me, especially when ordering stuff.

Also yes it's good practice to use a credit card, absolutely.
