[WTS] ClickClack, BroCaps, BingeCaps

[danielucf]

I know it is a long shot, and I have other BroCaps, but I'd like to take a shot for the Reactor Core Green BBV2 (GID) (MX).

I have many different shades of green BroCaps and missed out on the toxic sale completely. I have a green anodized GON MX Mini where I am going to put my Toxic set and other green artisan caps. I don't sell my artisan caps for obscene prices the few times I've sold anything, and twice now I've given away topre caps. I can also pay it forward by selling either a fauxluminum V2 topre and/or spirit blue reaper topre at cost.

Pick me, the caps must flow.

[Distilled]

Awesome thing you do here,

I would like to throw my name in for the Summer set. This would go perfect between my candycorn and hack orange. Obviously I cannot claim to be void of artisan caps. All I can claim is that I will love these in the way that they were designed for.

[coldpizzaa]

Very nice of you to do this,
Hey I would love to throw my luck at a chance at the Angry Summer Set BBV2 (MX).
I recently am trying to  grow my MK collection by buying a Poker II from a friend, I got the Yellow blank caps on massdrop recently to go along with it as well, and having the Yellow Brocap in there would be an amazing plus for it! Would also be my first purchased keycap of any sort!

I know breaking a set is something you probably don't want to hear but it's worth a try.

The close 2nd would be the Reactor Core Green BBV2.

thanks, pizza. 

[KatzenKinder]

Hi Hoff, thank so much for offering these all at such reasonable price! I would really love to get Hot Lips Grizzle key by Binge!  but really any Binge!

It would bring me endless happiness to possess any single one of Binge's works, as they are what inspired me to start my own cap-making ventures! I've always been obsessed with artisan caps I've seen from GH, but IMO Binge has the most expressive style that really shows through in his work. Unfortunately, I have yet to acquire any artisan caps aside from the ones I've made.

I started making caps approx. two months ago, and have offered them out at the lowest possible prices, because I know the joy of getting something crafted with that obsession (even if my work is lower quality) and wanted to share that with others. I documented the whole process and shared with any interested people here at link https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=62696.0

I even made a cap dedicated to all the beautiful beards of the world :v

I know I'm late to the party, but I'd love to be able to buy a Bro MX , or even any other MX cap. But would really love a Bro 

[MassiveAggresive]

I'm interested in the steel Bro Bot mostly because it'd look great on my Poker 2. I've tried, with no success, to get in on several artisan cap sales. Usually the only way to get one through the classifieds is to trade. It seems like a chicken or the egg kind of situation.

[Bromono]

The suspense always kills me! 

[strict]

You should sell me the Steel MX Bro or the Mint Gum clack because I've got money in my paypal account that I can spend without my wife knowing its being spent on more artisan keycaps  )

Seriously though, I think I'm a good choice because I'm a die-hard collector and fan of the BBv2 and am staunchly opposed to artisan key profiteering. I've got a decent little collection of BroBots and would really love to add something as unique as the steel v2. I've got the beginnings of a CC collection (2) that I am desperate to grow and the Mint Gum would be an excellent addition.

Even if I dont win anything, I'm glad to see you handling sales and pricing this way, Hoff. You're doing a good thing here 

[00zeRO]

I am interested in the Steel Bro Bot V2 because it is the coolest one you have available IMHO.

I have not owned any artisan keycaps, and right now seems like a great time to start.

After taking heavy criticism for multiple open IC's (which I have since closed), I think I deserve a break, Reverend Mister Hoff Sir...

Thanks for putting on this sale, and sharing your joy with others.

[Rotaku]

I don't own a artisan keycap of any sorts (unless you count the lambda keycap), and that orange brobot in the summer set looks so nice! My DSA dolch set should be arriving soon, and with the orange part of the gamer set, i think my life would be complete. Really appreciate the chance at this sale, and thanks for giving people a shot at getting these keycaps at great prices too.

Probably just busy irl, or waiting for more entries to choose from, or for all of the caps to be requested.
There's a method to his madness.

I would like the mint green clack because I just bought the mint green Leopold keyboard from mass drop. I have a topre key cap that was sent to me mistakenly and I am trying to get rid of. I sent you a message!

Yes. I wouldn't really consider it a scam so much as a shipping mistake. I still have the cap and tried clearing the guy's name on my behalf but apparently some other people were scammed by him. I tried returning it to him but the package was returned for a bad address. So I still have the cc.

Like I said on the original thread, it's still a scam because you didn't get what you paid for. Also Hoff said not to PM him as one of the rules

[HoffmanMyster]

Hey guys, no skam, no trolen. I was going to make selections on Wednesday but then I realized I couldn't ship until after the weekend anyway so I extended it without saying so. I am indeed busy with family and stuff this weekend.

Carry on! 

[Rotaku]

didn't mean to comment :/

[Rotaku]

Made the same mistake again ._.

[Hordak]

I do want to relieve you of your High 'C' BBV2 (Topre) because I have the HHKB and a Realforce, but not a single novelty key

As you can tell I don't come on GH very often and I was very ignorant to not read the rules. I just had seen the mint green cc in the pictures and sent an impulse message because I was excited to see one even being sold!

If it disqualifies me then I'll have to deal with it.

Sorry for the PM HoffmanMyster   .

[Buckling]

I would love love love the Blue Slushy Lion Keyng.
I think I should have the chance of getting this cap because, well I am not really sure. I guess I am just completely in love with the design of this one and the colour it is means it will fit in perfectly on the ESC key on my poker . I have a HOTKEY cap but I would love one from a different artisan. I am international so that probably rules me out, but good luck to everyone else entering.

[calvinhousecat]

Hey Hoffman

hope I'm not too late! I haven't been able to check Geekhack lately due to family vacation and other Thanksgiving craziness. I would love to take that Champagne Lion Keyng or Tang Lion Keyng off you! Why you should sell to me is because I don't own any of the keycaps from the popular guys yet (ClackFactory, BroCaps, Binge, Hipsterpunks). I either was a loser from the raffles plus I wasn't in the hobby yet to buy from them. Ive only been into this hobby for 3 months. Hopefully you can make me a winner in this sale. The only artisans I have are from Kindercapz and it was to help him fund for future keycap production + they look good!

Thanks for reading

[gooseta]

Hi,
I would love to have the
Reactor Core Green BBV2 (GID) (MX): $57

As I have never had an artisan keycap and I just ordered the FC660M off of massdrop in mint I wanted a nice green cap to go with it. I'm in the UK, though, if that's a problem let me know

[sundin]

I want really this reaper brocap for start the custom of my HHKB!

I have never had of artisan keycap and i'm jealous of all this beautifull keyboard...

[pesky brat]

Hey Hoff,

First off I want to thank you for taking part in this trend. I've said it before and I'll say it again; it's great to see people being so generous and giving people opportunities to get their first artisan cap.

The cap I'm interested in is the Mint Gum MX skull. I definitely wouldn't say that I deserve it - that would make me seem pretty entitled. However, I do have my reasons for wanting it. The keyboard it would live on would be my very first mechanical keyboard - a Filco Majestouch 2. At the moment, I have no artisan caps for any of my boards. I plan on taking part in CTRL[ALT]'s upcoming Hyperfuse buy through GMK, and the Mint Gum clack matches the color scheme of the set so well. Example:
 
(Credit to kenmai9 for the image)

I've entered the last 3 or 4 bro cap sales and the last clack sale, but unfortunately I've had no luck. Of course, people around here have had worse luck, but it is a little discouraging to see other people's collections grow while mine remains non-existent. I also entered demik's raffle for his Candy Corn Skull, but the generator placed me second (so close! ) Congratulations again to carinaguts on winning that, hope it's enjoying its new home . Maybe if anything, you would let me purchase this one out of pity? jk.

Anyway, to wrap this up I just want to say thank you again Hoff for doing this and thank you for taking the time to read this.

Regards and happy holdays,

pesky brat

Hello, I have a passion for keyboard design.
I love the fact that you can make a object unique and rare and even turn it into a piece of art an extention of yourself.

I've been lurking on geekhack for 2 months now I saw a lot of custom kb creation.  It has encouraged me to do the same.
The project is a 60% board with aluminium and carbon body I'm already far for this.

But, the hardest part for me is to find keycaps which can make this board really stand out.
When I looked at the pictures of ClickClack, Brocaps etc I knew that it was what I needed, a unique custom creation that I can attach to my board to make even more unique.

Then I saw that you have your WTS thread I jumped on the opportunity to have my first clack keycap the Mint Gum (MX)

Keep the good work,
Malicium

[unipsykal]

I think all these artisan keycaps look great, and a real good job done by the creators. I don't own any unique keycaps and personally I can't justify myself spending too much money on a single keycap. However I do like the idea of owning one so that whenever I sit at my desk, I'll remember that there are awesome people out there in this community.

If that sounds reasonable, perhaps you could help me decide what would go with my KB:



Much appreciated!

[Dakine234]

Aloha,
Just wondering if your steel bro V2 for sale is brownish in color?  I've been looking for my first bro cap and have been looking for one in a dark brown/bronze color and noticed your listing.  If its the bronze/brown color and your alright selling to me (located in hawaii) i'll gladly take it.  Also does the weight of the cap make any difference? 
Mahalo!

[Sissy]

Would love to have the Reactor Core Green BBV2 for when I get the Toxic keycap set, so looking forward to getting those caps and the brobot would look perfect with it

[cephelix]

looking through the pictures, I rather fancy the Blue Slushy Lion Keyng. Would look good as a replacement of my number lock key....going for the blue on black theme for my ducky premier.

[YoJinBro]

Hey Hoffman,

I'm a longtime lurker, and just wanted to stop in to say that I really like what you're doing with this sale to be a community builder. It resonates with me as I've discovered that one of the best ways to enjoy a mechanical keyboard is to share it with someone else - over the past couple years, I've owned an embarassingly high number of keyboards, but I've kept about half of them, and the remainder were customized and gifted to close friends or family. I don't want it to seem like I'm giving away used and abused toys - these were all beloved children who I decked out, gave a proper cleaning and loving before saying goodbye. I'm especially proud of this cowprint DasKeyboard: http://imgur.com/sGKqOlM (my girlfriend loves cows. now she loves that mechanicalkeyboard!).

As weird as it might sound to other people, I enjoy sharing mechanical keyboards with people as it gives us something else in common that I enjoy; to create another sort of bond. I feel like you're doing something similar, except to an online community, with people you don't really know or may not have met, which makes it much more difficult, and usually less gratifying. Well, I hope you know that we appreciate this sale you're doing for the community, and not just because we're a bunch of greedy kids who want fancy key caps!

... or are we? *turn on Santa Baby*
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFMyF9fDKzE

I've never owned any artisan keycaps, but I would be thrilled to purchase a brobot v2 if given an opportunity (Topre Hi-C, MX Reactor Core, MX Steel in that order)! I'm fine with doing a PayPal gift, since I have a low post count.

Thanks again for doing this - good luck with the sale!

Sorry for the PM HoffmanMyster   .

I don't think he's legitimately upset that you made a mistake. He was probably just trying to avoid an inbox full of offers, because the sale isn't really money related.

[Paeka]

Hey Hoff,
not really sure how this works, I'm very new to the keycap scene (started this weekend   ) ) but anyways one of my buddies who is into it told me this is a very rare opportunity to possibly buy one of these caps, so I just thought better not miss my chance. Anyways, I just received the Poker 2 in the mail and was hoping to start to customizing it over the Christmas break. I am a huge fan of the Champaigne Lion Keyng B-Stock and was wondering if you'd be willing to sell that me as my first bingecap (I do not own any keys atm).
Thanks again for the opportunity, Paeka

Btw to add to my post prior, this will be the board will be the one I am placing the cap I win on




or maybe on the octagons I ordered.

[bowji]

Im posting my pitch to this thread. Im fairly new to the world of keycaps and Im intrigued with what the community here has showed me of the possibilities. Before geekhack my knowledge was limited to color and type of plastic, but the collector mentality of custom keys has opened my eyes. Honestly, I have joined this community in hopes to collect a few of these artisan keycaps in groupbuys/classified sales. Notably, Brocaps Clickclacks GirlDC made me want to collect a handful of artisan keycaps. Nothing too greedy of around 5 artisan keycaps total (one for the esc space, 4 to sit on my tenkeypad and switch as I please with the esc space), 2 more if I ever decide on a topre(leopold 660c). I currently dont own any artisan keycaps although I am in the process of acquiring a girlDC keycap through PMs. Im still learning and my interest is growing, so I dont have a specific keycap I want but any collectible one listed would be a good start. Thanks for your time <3

[HoffmanMyster]

OKAY.  Wow.  Love the responses, guys.    And just in case anyone was questioning my intent here, this was not some weird way to get people to suck up or kiss my ass.  I prefer to let these caps, that have become a part of who I am, go to people that will appreciate them as I have, and give them a loving home on their keyboard of choice.  You can choose to believe this, or assume that I'm only in this to look like a "good guy", I don't really care that much.  But that's neither here nor there, because I've made the selections for who to sell to...

You may notice that some are listed as simply "SOLD".  That's because I was contacted on the side for some...surprise...purchases.  If you can imagine an upcoming event that might warrant a surprise purchase...   

PS, I was going to include a little write-up about why I chose the people that I did, but there were too many to do that for, so I just gave up.  )

Anyway, I will send out PMs to the above users tomorrow to discuss payment.  In the meantime, if you see this and have decided that you're no longer interested in purchasing the cap, please PM me!   

[byker]

Thanks so much hoffman! Super excited for my first sculpted binge cap. Looking forward to your pm! 

[Quackles]

Kind of a kick in the gut for the ones which say SOLD, as I assumed it would be going to someone posting in this thread as originally intended. Nevertheless, congrats to all those selected! Enjoy your keycaps

[jackalope]

Congrads to those who were chosen, and thanks Hoffman for opening up your collection.

[Halverson]

Kind of a kick in the gut for the ones which say SOLD, as I assumed it would be going to someone posting in this thread as originally intended. Nevertheless, congrats to all those selected! Enjoy your keycaps

Just to be fully transparent, I purchased the High C topre and Youngmichael88 purchased the steel bot(at cost, no secret pm deals).
