[GB] GMK Purple UWU | A Purple Weeb XT-Addon | FINAL NUMBERS IN

[twitchytheinsideman]

GMK Purple UWU

Welcome to GMK Purple UWU GB, something that I have really been longing for to enhance a certain purple weeb set. And low MOQ of 42 kits was ensured.
Fill GB form! Payment due once GB closed!

Kitting
Purple UWU will feature 24x UWU keycaps, 6 keycaps per row 1, 2, 3, 4. This way you can equip your macropads, F-row, nav clusters or XT macro-columns with this set. Or even build a complete keyboard with UWU only!
Additionally, you can add a custom amount of columns on-top of your base-bundle order!

Disclaimer:
Renders are NOT color-accurate, they are just trying to recreate the look of a certain purple weeb set and may not look the same as Oblotzky’s renders, but the colors will be the same. It will be in the same production queue as that set.

GB FORM & Sales Format
If you want to participate in this GB, fill out the GB form.
Fulfillment is going to be made-to-order. Returns and refunds cannot be accepted. Please only fill the form if you are going to follow through with your payment.

GB participation form will be closed once 60 kits are ordered (or June 1, 2023), thus ensuring this GB I can handle shipping of all orders.
I will post a list in the comments of all GB participants, akin to early day group-buys.
If 60 orders are hit, payment requests will be sent out via e-mail, you will have 48 hours to pay. (Please check your spam folder!)

If you have any suggestions or questions or wishes, feel free to message me.

Update 4/18/2023
- GB staying open until equivalent of 60 kits are sold instead of closing at MOQ, to ensure that MOQ is met even if people jump the train, although they claim not to

Wooooahhhhhhhh I need! We allowed to buy 2? I dmed your discord tag w/ a question.

GB closes when 60 kits have been ordered, but there is no limit on how many kits any one person can order while the GB is open.

Exactly.
I am capping at 60 kits because of my human limit with shipping.
You can order as many kits as you want, as long as I do not have to ship too many orders for my capacity.

[dvorcol]

[twitchytheinsideman]

Might be distributing CONUS orders through dvorcol so that shipping cost is lower for peeps that ordered more than 1.33 kits.

Also consider buying into this so we can reach MOQ 

[dvorcol]

MOQ met!


Edit: updated 24 May

[twitchytheinsideman]

- MOQ met
- GB open for 9 more days - until June 1st

Thanks for participating!!!

Thanks to everyone who joined!

Will send the first invoices later today.
Check your mail inboxes once you see “invoice sent” next to your name in the list.

Also check your spam folders!

CONUS orders will receive invoice emails last as I still need to count together if sending all orders to dvorcol as a proxy would save a significant amount of shipping for the customers (you).

All invoices sent, except:

• When shipping information was missing
• CONUS orders

Why CONUS orders?
Dvorcol would proxy these orders. However, this might not be the best option. I will have to calculate, estimate the size and weight of the parcel. There is multiple factors that play a role. And it is harder to calculate the shipping cost this way. As it currently stands it would differ for each order size to make it most fair.
I am thinking about this proxy-method as this could save a handful of people shipping cost (if they ordered more than EUR 50 worth of keycaps and want it insured).

4 of 18 people would directly profit off it. The other 14 would profit from faster shipping.

Edit:
I tried calculating and estimating costs as well as possible. And came to this:
Every small CONUS order pays the normal shipping cost of EUR 14.99.
Every big CONUS order pays EUR 24 for the shipping cost.
Everything will be shipped MUCH faster. And insured for all!
Waiting for dvorcol to get back to me if he is SURE he will handle the CONUS orders.

Edit 2:
Will send out all invoices for small orders at EUR 14.99 shipping now. And can do the others later.

Edit 3:
Will be flexible pricing for the 4 people with a big order. Biggest order pays most. Smallest of them pays the least.

[dvorcol]

Edit: added extras

[twitchytheinsideman]

I put the order of 66 kits of GMK Purple UWU with Zitres from Candykeys.

He will write me an invoice after reaching back to GMK.

Will probably transfer the GB-money next week then.

[twitchytheinsideman]

Due to different people vacationing, I have not yet received the invoice. Should be soon though as I got asked if the information that I previously provided, is correct.

[twitchytheinsideman]

Still waiting on invoice.
