So you can only bid once on one cap?


MX or Topre?

It does kind of sound like that, but my guess would be you can bid an unlimited amount of times, but only on 1 of the designs (for 1 keycap).

All keycaps are MX only. Sorry my topre peeps :(

Next time, though :)

If you want to bid on a different one, that is ok. But you will obviously lose your place on the one you bid on, and will need to outbid the person on the next one you want.

One keycap per person, period.
