Question:
It seems to me that the alpha & other 'gray' keys in the OP's photos have a much bluer hue than the Originative set or authentic Dolch caps. The latter two sets are yellower, at least judging by pics I can find online.
Is this likely a real difference, or just a white balance artifact from OP's camera? When group buys happen, how are the colors specified to the manufacturer? As I understand it, GMK made the original Dolch sets, so they should already have the right color on hand, if they source it from their archives. Is that how they work, or did OP likely specify himself?
I know this is picky, but the Originative/authentic caps seem a bit more contrasty to me and I like them more. Considering the price, I'd like to feel I got exactly what I wanted.
Can anyone comment on this? OP?
