I keep watching and nothing happens...
Well, not THAT soon.
Seriously, with the completion of Retro DSA shipping (hooray!) I'm going to try to get this one in and out as well. I have requested a quote for a full set (plus 13 extra spacebars for Mettaliqaz) with an expected MOQ of 25 sets, although 50 would be better. For that few sets, I'll just set out 100% of the keycaps on a Sindarin key-checker so that I will know in advance that every set is complete.
Then, to control costs, I'll have them shipped to me, I will check them, and then transfer ownership to the buyer here. Then YOU will have an Elvish keycap set HERE, and YOU can decide how much YOU want to spend to get it to you THERE. I'll send it to you via whatever method, speed, and insurance level YOU prefer and want to fund. Want it expressed with full insurance? Fine by me. Want it sent first class on a slow boat around the world? Also fine by me. Heck, come by my office and pick them up in person.
Anyhow, I'll get a fresh quote, we'll see if people actually want to pay for these, and if so we'll get them made.
Thinking out loud here, I think a RainDrop-style sign-up and pay order form is the way to go for these. That way we will know who is serious and who is just kicking tires.
Now, to set expectations more clearly, no MORE updates until Monday at the earliest.
