This makes me so sad

7bit, could you please update the payment information ? I would like to make sure you have received my payments and to see as well how much I still owe you.

updated.

Hey 7bit, I sent in my payment via bank transfer on Jul. 25, but when I check my status via the bot, it still says I have made 0% payment, is there any way to check that my payment has gone through? It's a bit unsettling to not know where my money is if it still hasn't been acknowledged by the system.

Thanks a lot!

I got your payment. Just send a dummy message to 7bit_R4.

I'm posting these payment update lists here for your reference only as a curtesy. No action is necessary.
I "x" out the dollar amount for your privacy and leave the decimal amount for you to check against your records if you wish.

*Note: When I process your payment I mark them in Paypal as "Mark as Shipped". Paypal has been known to lock accounts where "Goods" payments are not marked as shipped within a certain amount of time. Since these GBs take so long, to avoid your payments being frozen up by Paypal, I mark them as shipped. Paypal will send you an email saying your order has been marked as shipped. * The shipping company will show as "7bit" and the "tracking number" will be your invoice number and username.

**Note: Your actual caps order has not shipped yet. The orders will ship after SP manufactures them, sends them to 7bit and he will ship them to you and notify you of the actual ship date and tracking information.

Thank you guys for your timely payments.

Yet another question. The Danish layout has a wrong key, the key with the tilde, has got a " when it should have been a ¨. can it be changed? and a R2 150 cap with ' and * be added?

Sorry for the annoyance, but I have to ask, even though it's late.

Is it possible to get a refund on this groupbuy? I paid a few months ago, but with no end in sight, I just can't wait for these anymore.

FYI, the end actually is in sight. I just made a wire transfer of over $10K USD to Signature Plastics yesterday. If you wanted the keys when you ordered them you're going to hate it when they come in and you see how awesome they are and you HAD them and gave them up.
7bit or someone else with more experience with SP may know how long manufacturing the keys should take from this point. This is my first time dealing with them, so I couldn't guess.

5-6 weeks seems to be about average for smaller group buys (a bit longer once the inevitable mistakes are corrected), no idea how long this one would take though.

If only there where any ROUND3/TKL or SPH\TLK left

There's actually one of each available.

Last attempt: I need someone located in the USA who can collect PayPal money!!!

Since they seem to be in stock, I'm tempted by the ROUND3/TKL/BLACK and NOIR/TKL kits. Are there any pictures around of actual key caps to see what they look like?

ROUND3/TKL/BLACK comes with very dark grey keys only (all keyx shown except 1-9).

NOIR/TKL is just white on black like Cherry key caps but thinner font and thinner caps.

I understand thinner font, but how are the actual caps thinner?

Staffan

They are manufactured by a different company.
Cherry are always vintage ones because they don't do such caps any more vs Signature plastic which are doing almost all double shot custom orders for the group buys.
Cherry DS caps have thick walls, which you can see here:

bottom line: less heavy caps with the according key feel change you may notice.

also, quoted for importance:

Thanks for picking up the slack of this group buy and collecting money megnin!

My keycaps cost me twice as much as the Filco keyboard they're going on.

I sent you a message last week 7bit offering to collect money if needed, but never received a reply. Let me know if you'd like me to do so.

Give that guy all your moniez, I want my keycaps!

Well, why don't you go collect the moniez then? You even have 25 posts!

You do realise we would trust over 10k$ to a complete new member, do you ?

I was a fairly new member when I proposed myself for collecting. I'm not US located, though. 7bit wants only dem Americans!

And no, not we (which includes me). Those, who don't pay via SEPA/IBAN!

Yeah, I told 7bit the same thing in my message (that I don't post), and would understand if he didn't want me to help, as he has no reason to trust me. But since I didn't receive a reply, I just wanted to make sure my message didn't get buried in the masses of messages that I'm sure he receives. I put my own order in for two sets in Februrary, and just wanted to see if I could do anything to speed the process up.

Oh, I guess he needs someone to send the money out of country?
