[IC] GMK White on Black and Magenta Mod Pack [LIVE!]

[effectiveduck]

Hey everyone!

And it's live everyone!!! 

After a long wait it's finally time!

http://www.kbdist.com/gmk-originative/

Thanks for posting while I was asleep 

How much the group buy fee is?

$3 per item

Is there any way I can order extra GHB keys with the set? Will need those for my trackpoint mod if possible.

AFAIK there isn't without ordering an extra set, you could potentially buy them of an ISO user whose using OG wob alphas but that might be pretty difficult.

Also the render is not 100% up to date, barred f and j keys are included regardless of MOQ.

Christoph had been away from the past few weeks but is back as of yesterday I believe, so hopefully he'll get back to me soon with the updated render.

Congratulas
the price and lay-out is pretty competitive
haha, i think there is no need for render of WoB, since it is classic pure white and black that everyone knows what the real one looks like

As you've mentioned it is possible to cover a 1u bottom row but the legends will not be correct, however 1u menu keys (R4 and R5) and a second 1u Alt and 1u Ctrl will be added at 250 and 500 MOQ respectfully. So if we hit 500 then it will support it 100%.

Hi effectiveduck, can you confirm the 2nd Ctrl and Alt keys at the 250 and 500 drop points respectively, like you mentioned earlier? I don't think I saw this mentioned on the kbdist listing. Thanks!

[kenmai9]

would be in for magenta if there was like one more r4 1u blank or ctrl/alt or something

[KetchyKech]

In for the base set, thanks so much for this~!

I completely forgot about this, so it wasn't planned but sherryton has agreed to have them added at 250, no change in cost

Base set ordered! It's gonna be great!

Should I order two sets, or a set plus modifiers?

First world problems.

Thank you very much for the confirmation. As this GB will end at the same time as the now-extended Keyboard and Co, I will be grabbing one of each set in 2 weeks. Hype!

When is the last date to order?

Edit: nvm 30th Sept

[effectiveduck]

When is the last date to order?

30th of September, so plenty of time to order

I like it will be open the whole month. It gives everyone a chance to order and hopefully result in a high MOQ. Has op also created a thread in GB section? I don't see one. Could be a good idea to spread the word.

Good stuff!

This is a fantastic looking set. Plus I want to help an Aussie! So much amazing GMK sets popping up recently, going to have to consider this one seriously.

Thanks for bringing us this WOB buy man.    The colorway is classic as hell. The price is also damn reasonable. After hearing not-so-good things about JTK's legends it's only natural that WOB comes back GMK  ).

It's nice to see a GMK set that doesn't feature gaudy neon, not a big fan of DSA-esque colorways with every shade under the sun coming to cherry; apparently GMK GmbH has really opened up (with Uniqey and all) to allow all these formerly DSA/SA keyset designers to bring their ideas to Cherry.

I've dealt with Originative a couple of times already and although the regular non-GB prices that sherry puts out are a bit hard to swallow, this one seems perfectly reasonable (as with Carbon a while ago on MD, nice to see this trend for GMK sets) and in my experience sherry & co has always been good with shipping and replying to emails.

Since I'm not sure how long it will take for the GB thread to be approved I'll announce it here...



I'm giving away a Starcluster v2 (mx) and a Rustler (mx) from my personal collection to 2 lucky participants.

* The Starcluster will be available to participants of the main set and the Rustler will be available to all participants.



Good luck!

OMG!  Do I need to opt-in? I have already placed my order.

OMG, I really would like to get the stars cluster, I am not really into artisans, but this in particular is one of the finest examples I have seen of an artisan's so far.
