Welcome to Originative!

[bellol]

I have the same problem. I'm also not getting any shipping rates to Australia.

[LechnerDE]

Maybe I missed in another post, but what is meant by "regular price"?

For example the classic beige with blue set cost 95$ with a regular price of 130$. Does this mean those are limited offers for the launch of the site and will go up soon?

I am interested in a couple of items, but according to other posts here international orders don't work yet

It means prices can be changed, with the initial selling price being 130 but currently selling at 95. Sherryton has mentioned that prices may increase/decrease in coming weeks.

Hi there, I'm interested in ordering as well, but I'm getting the same error:

"No shipping rates found for your order. Please continue the checkout process."

I'm assuming that doesn't mean that shipping is free?  )

PBT RGB sets are up

Orange on Charcoal will be up this week.

Dolch will be up in two to three weeks.

PBT Full sets will come in next month.

Can we see photos of the Orange on Charcoal?

PBT Full sets in the next month? Oh the horror
Can you at least tell us what colors of blanks you'll be getting it?

[alixinhzai]

full set? with spacebar?

[redeye]

Also having problems with no postal charges and cc info.

Except for leewei has anyone successfully placed and received an order from the new web site?

[Rendom]

placed an order. Doesn't have shipping charge as well and it has been 2-3 weeks. Would love to hear something from the man. Thank you

[Tempy]

Order page keeps re looping instead of taking CC info, going to try chrome

Doesn't work on chrome either, wanted to pick up a hangul set

[ninjadoc]

What is the final conclusion with Originative? I want to buy the charcoal with orange legends but I'm afraid I eiother can't order or I won't get the product. Any comments?

Lately many have had good success ordering from sherry, I'm not sure what's going on at the moment he said the other day he was having internet trouble.

I have purchased a few small things and am planning on purchasing a few more soon.

[mashby]

There may still be a few bumps in the road for his online presence, but he's always delivered everything that I've ordered quickly and efficiently.

[ninjadoc]

Ok. I bought the set; got the invoice within an hour and shipping notice shortly thereafter. About an hour or two after that I got another message that it had been shipped. Guess he's up and running now.

Hey ninja,

I contemplating a purchase off of the originativeco site and am curious to know if the site is working and whether or not you've received your stuff in anything like a timely fashion.

Also, what did you order and how do you like it? You satisfied with quality, etc?

Cheers,

K

I ordered this morning and already received a shipping notice & tracking #

[Sent]

Sent you a PM and e-mail regarding my Dolch order, Sherry.  I know it's back with you according to the tracking number.  I don't even need it shipped out right now.  I'd just like some acknowledgement that it will be shipped to my new address and I won't be out a Dolch set.

the new website is looking good! Just wondering where the button is for registering a new account? Or would that be available during actual official launch of the new website? thanks =)

I think the issue has been fixed!

During checkout you should see checkout as guest, or you can register using the create account link in the top right.

[kenmai9]

Whats the link to the new website?

I have color accurate monitors at home, if you want I can quickly sort out the white balance issues for you. You have my email, hit me up if you need help.

Love the new typeface for "Originative" on the home page. Perfect, I think, for this shop.

[zenuty]

I hope sell to gmk dolch soon 

[sherryton]

It is official.  We have launched our new web-site, and we want to proudly welcome everyone.

Hey Sherry,

You wouldn't happen to have any keys in function row profile, blank, in either of the Dolch colors, would you?

What about either of the Dolch colors in F13 - F24?

Cheers,

K

Congrats on the new Site!!! Dolch all over the place!! Sweet!!

We do not have not have any keys to fill the function row unfortunately.  We do have blank white-beigeish keycaps, but not in the medium / dark grey colors.

[korrelate]

These are for a TrikX from Redline (extra four function keys) and I'm thinking that non-matching would work just as well as matching.... the profile is really the most important thing.

If you don't mind, could you post a pic of any of the blank keys in function row profile that you would care to part with and PM me a price? Cheers!! And if I'd have known you were going to sell Dolch sets (I've been following your posts for a while) I wouldn't have had to watch GH like a hawk to pick up a used set.

Anyway... I really can't wait to see what's next. Totally interested in Handarbeit and the mod packages that you're been talking about.


Cheers,

I don't know if I should give website feedback here. I can move this elsewhere if you'd like. I really like the new design. One thing I don't like is ultra petty, but I cannot unsee it and it is bothering me.

This thumbnail image does not look like a proper keycap. The top profile of the cap looks weird when it goes to the edge. I am no artist but I modified it to show what I mean and show what I think would look better. Once again, this is ultra petty, but I have nothing better to do.

Something more similar to the GH key icon may work as well, but the current one just feels "off".

Other things: there is no description of what exactly the extension set and other addon sets to the dolch keyset contain. Also, the pricing seems a bit extreme. For example, the winkeyless set likely being just 4 or 6 caps is priced at $25. I know that these caps are premium and you are pretty much the only way to get them, but that is over $4 per cap. They are probably still going to sell, and I am by no means complaining about the pricing just providing feedback for how a lot of people would react to seeing the pricing.

Thanks a lot for the feedback.  Description and favicon needs some fixing.  As for the sets, these items are really expensive with a high MOQ.  Purchasing these sets from Signature Plastics is cheaper , but it just depends on which you prefer.

[nubbinator]

Congrats on the 1,000 likes.  You skyrocketed to that.  I don't even remember seeing you hitting 500 where your last giveaway was supposed to happen.

[SpAmRaY]

I have a bunch of geek hack keys with black font on a red keycap in lowercase cherry font.

If you enter "geekhack key" on your note, then I will most likely send you a cap for free

Thanks for all the support geekhack.

I will keep this promotion ongoing.  After these colors run out, I will produce new colors.

And if you donate to geekhack, e-mail me the picture at sheraton@originativeco.com, then I will send one to you free of charge.

Sherry is this still happening? I put the note on my last order but didn't get anything.

100% forgot about this even after staring at my cart for 30 minutes straight... 

[sherryton]

So to who do I owe a geekhack key too...

[Pacifist]

I can't believe I didn't hear about that when I ordered all that stuff.....time to use up all the lube as an escuse to get more!

[Michael]

Me?

+1, I sent an email,  but didn't get one either...

[SpAmRaY]

Sherry log on and let us know what cool stuff is going on with Originative!

[gh_pp]

I think I'm being patient but 3 months later I still have no update for my $150 order of beige set + a bunch of other keys.

I'm not sure if this is a full time business or not, but if the stuff are not available it shouldn't be listed on the website (you can add those to your cart, checkout and pay with your credit card as of now).

Or maybe just refund if it's never gonna be shipped.

But I agree that originative has some unique hard to find stuff. I just wish it is more transparent.

Hopefully we'll get an update soon.

Have you sent them emails asking about your stuff??

[gh_pp]

yeah,  sherry said he's back on dec 31.

so I gave him the time to decompress since I think a lot of people are waiting for him

then I send an email to sheraton@originativeco.com on Jan 29

still no reply. I have been communicating with him using that email when I placed my order

Yeah I'd say contact him on skype but he hasn't answered me on there in a while either.

Maybe try facebook? https://www.facebook.com/Originativeco

I know real life happens etc but if your going to have a 'keyboard' store and sell items you need to take the time to fulfill the orders and respond to people.

[dorkvader]

He's working through the huge pile of e-mails he no doubt has. I got a good response from him just the other day!

[gh_pp]

I guess he really has a huge backlog.

He just replied to my second email saying that my order is not cancelled. However still no ETA.

It's already 3 months I don't mind wait for another 4 weeks or so as long as it arrives eventually.

BTW, have anyone ordered a KMAC2 kit from sherry and *received* it?

http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=39627.0

I am considering buying a kit and have someone build it for me, but reading all the posts in the thread, it doesn't seem like anyone got one from him.

The product page is still live

I ordered one from them quite awhile ago and received it in about a weeks time. It did not ship with the hardware to put it together though, that took about another month to get from them.
