I only send payments to 7bit twice a week, after that I'm not sure how long it takes him to update your invoice. I got yours on the 13th, and it was included with the payments I sent to him yesterday morning.

I'm glad payment was successful.
I wait for contact from 7bit.

The only "confirmation" you will get will be an updated invoice showing your payment. It will probably take a day or two before you get that (it depends on when goddard sends the payment info to 7bit, followed by when 7bit gets around to sending out updated invoices after that).
I also paid goddardm@gmail.com 2 days ago and got 2 invoices since then not registering my payment? How long does it take? I'm a bit worried.

You paid me yesterday, 12/15, but after I had sent payments to 7bit. Yours will be sent to him with the next batch on Monday.

Thanks for the quick reply mate. I appreciate it.

People need to stop panicking. Every single aspect of a 7bit group buy takes a LONG time. This isn't Amazon.
If you have made a payment but have not received any kind of confirmation, wait a few days. There is absolutely nothing time-sensitive about 7bit's group buy process. The smallest step takes days to complete. The whole group buy takes years to complete.

Hello 7bit
On November 15th I've added a few items to my order. I've received an invoice for the extra items on that same day.
I've paid the outstanding amount to the Sparkasse Bayreuth bank account the next day, including the "this text is important" text.
However, 2 days ago I received a notification that there is still an unpaid amount. I'd like to clear this up to ensure that this won't mess up my order. My order number is 0771

Precisely.

MaxKey won’t do it because it’s pretty much an unknown market.
It all depends on Signature Plastics and they made it for DSA Granite, but blank SA caps for Alps do not even exist on their pimpmykeyboard website.
My hope for Alps caps is on Matias, a Group buy project even more patience-testing than this one. Hope Matias can get some laser-engraved PBT, because I don’t like printed legends. Only dyesub, or Doubleshot like the Rounds.
Spoiler:
One Per Desk has some of the best looking high profile doubleshot keycaps for Alps.
Don't know who manufactured these caps for the ICL One Per Desk in the past. https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=81879.0
A real "harvesting" dilemma.

It doesn't really, all you need to do is make a group buy for Alps caps and order them from SP, they'll happily oblige

Which means mine is somewhere between 20th and 30th in line for packing. Fine by me. I never expected to receive mine until after the New Year anyway (bearing in mind that it's roughly a two-week journey for keycaps travelling from Berlin to Los Angeles).

Wow, didn't know they (SP) can produce SA for Alps.
I hope the SA Alps caps can make a keyboard a step closer to be as nice as the holy grail of Alps keyboards (for my taste) - the IBM 5556.
No where near for me to reach the holy grail or the trinity - I am not baptized.

I doubt they can, or will. Reach out to Melissa and see what she says.
Last year when I asked her about this, she said:
"We do not make an alps mount for the SA family, but it is available for all sizes in the DSA family."

It means you can't cancel your order by clearing them from your invoice. They are "locked" and you are committed to their purchase.
Not cheap, but then neither are SA sculpted keycaps.

Hi - a year later, just following up on order #0850 and the BLACK, RED, GREY, WHITE caps.
I could see some people posting photos of those colors already.
Should I be expecting my order to be completed soon?
Do let me know please.
Thanks!
rfja wrote: Hi,
I got a portion of my order (SPH/CREAM/BLUE) and all BLACK, RED, GREY, WHITE were not shipped - screenshot attached.
I am all lost with those phases and rounds. When the remaining caps will be shipped? Order 0850 from March'16.
Wow, you gave me a little heart attack with quoting this post from 2016. I was pretty hyped, then I could not find my order number in the list and then I luckily realized this is an old post.
Please consider not doing this to me again!

If I ordered gray, black, white, SPH now, when will shipping be around?
I've heard it takes more than one year to ship, because 7bit is doing the shipping procedure alone, is it true?
