Sounds like what ERGO/WHITE's boyfriend would say in a cowardly break-up text.

Here are the new prices:

Code: Select all

old HONEY/ERGO/WHITE        | 76| 89 USD|ErgoDox white kit +
new HONEY/ERGO/WHITE        | 76|149 USD|ErgoDox white kit +

old HONEY/ERGOBASE/WHITE    | 36| 59 USD|ErgoDox base white kit +
new HONEY/ERGOBASE/WHITE    | 36|129 USD|ErgoDox base white kit +

old HONEY/ERGOBASE/WHITE/R3 | 36| 59 USD|ErgoDox row 3 base white kit +
new HONEY/ERGOBASE/WHITE/R3 | 36| 99 USD|ErgoDox row 3 base white kit +

I misread 36 as the price before since Tapatalk cut the USD to the next line. Then I got an invoice for 129 dollars

Currently there is only one order for HONEY/ERGO/WHITE. There where at least 4 orders in total. Prices for blanks go down quite rapidly, with a few orders.

thanks for adding HONEY/FORTY/BLACK

how many orders does it need to get the price down a bit?

Hi guys, I hate to fill the thread up with seemingly inane questions; But once I've paid via PayPal should I expect any confirmation email (other than the one from paypal?).

In a few days I send another spam wave. If you are lucky, your payments shows up in the invoice.

Hi guys,

I'm new to DT and also just started getting into mech keyboards. I'm about to place an order and was hoping someone could please help double check that I'm not missing anything here.

I'm thinking of this layout for a standard ANSI TKL board (probably Filco), and I also want to make sure I can reuse these same keycaps for a 60% (possibly Poker 2) later on.

Here's my list:

HONEY/TKL/GRAPHITE (TKL black/grey kit | $79)
HONEY/SPACE625/GREY (Space (6.25 units; grey) | $2)
HONEY/SIXTY125BASE/RED (60 percent 125 base red kit | $21) (includes esc + backslash, no tilde)
HONEY/TILDEBPRIME/RED (tilde backprime (row 1; red) | $1)

It's possible to make things a little cheaper if I get components instead of the TKL Graphite set, but I went for the full set just in case the reds are too much and I want to fallback to the basic Graphite layout.

And I'll probably throw in HONEY/FUNCTION/RED for TRANSMIT/EJECT/PANIC goodness.

I think I've got all the key sizes and profiles covered for both TKL and 60%, but just want to make sure. Thanks, guys!

Hell, since we are adding random kits way past the supposed deadline, how about standard kits for all colours? Or at least red and white kits? I'd say grey too, but if that was added, I'd drop kits that I added to make my own standard kit.

Random note: new year, so US paypal collectors paypal accounts reset(i.e. new tax season so transactions and cash collection numbers reset) maybe you can spare someone else the stress of collecting for the tail end of the buy, assuming the former/current collector's are okay with it...

Well, the first one (megnin) has no time, the 2nd has a locked PayPal account and the 3rd is still collecting money.

I've added the SPH/STANDARD/WHITE kit.

Looks good to me. You're relying on one set of alphas (the greys from the TKL/GRAPHITE) and one space bar, so you're stuck to getting just one keyboard out of it at a time; which I'd find crazy making. But then again your order total looks sane compared to mine!

Definitely smart to go with 1.25 mods and 6.25 space bar. You've got a good pair of colour options for both standard TKL and 60%.

Kits of the day:

HONEY/SPACE150/RED
price: $7


HONEY/CURSYM125/BLACK
price: $5


HONEY/TKL/BASE/BLACK
price: $36


HONEY/FJ/BLACK
price: $2


HONEY/KBDRUNNER/RED
price: $1


HONEY/FUNCTION2
price: $24

Thanks much for taking a look! Hm, so that's a very good point. If I just add another alpha set and spacebar, then I can cover both keyboards at the same time. It's a slippery slope, haha.

Whats that sign on the lower right? Is it possible to get a lambda (λ) key?
Like this without the ring and with a sane serife font:

⸘Interrobang‽

I'd love lambda too, but then some of us want the whole Greek alphabet…

Maybe Round 6.

can you believe these are part of UTF-8 standard?

And one day, so will be Emoji. Mark my pile of poo. I mean words!

I recommend you run your own PBT-group buy if you want these symbols on your key caps.

BTW: I tried to insert the pile of poo into a post. It shows up in the preview, but is considered an illegal glyph by the forum software.

BUT: thumb up and thumb down are missing!

it will come as soon as SP gives me the green light

but I might veto on pile of poo

I bet they're all black squares on 7bit's screen.

I'm not after all that stuff. Just Greek. Greek PBT would be completely awesome, incidentally…

No, all of these display well, except for the pile of poo.


I bet it is because it is too fresh, it is still steaming!

oh dear

How soon should we expect updated invoices? I haven't changed anything in my order, but with the new deadline and price reductions, it'd be nice to see how much extra I have to spend from my original order (which was not insignificant).

You can send a blank pm to 7bot and you should get an updated invoice.

I do not know if people will follow me on this subject... but don't you think that it would be more usefull to have one FUNCTION in 1.5 R3 instead of one of the two META in HONEY/TENKLESSISO/BASE and HONEY/TENKISOBASE/WHITE

It would be a good way to choose between different keys because i am pretty sure that there is low chance to use two META in 1.5 on the same layout.

Might be a good idea. I will think about it.

Anybody here who needs 2 META keys in 1.5 units?

I made a payment on the 13th, but haven't received an updated invoice yet. Should I do anything about this?

Also, what is the new deadline for adding things to our order?

The spacebar for the FORTY is 6.25u, correct? Still tempted to get this, just in case...

Yes.

HONEY/HHKB looks sweet!

Out-of-curiosity, which boards are people buying this set for (as we are talking MX here)?

Good question! I can't help but think those kits are going to break a few hearts when people get them and try to put them on their actual HHKBs.
