I'm preparing my next addition to my order! Good to hear that the white stuff made it!
I'm wondering if there will be trading afterwards. For example i would need or like to have a row 1 grey "PANIC" key (that's for sure always a nice to have...) - but do not need all this media keys from the HONEY/FUNCTION/R1 set.

Not much, because you already paid most of your order.

7bit always wants more. Unlikely from me, I'm well deep into this one already. But still suggesting Round 5 to everyone who asks, as it is indeed the answer to all questions! By design.

had a change of heart and this color scheme (IBM's Beam Spring 3277 by scottc) looks really great:
http://webwit.nl/input/ibm_beam_spring/rojon/1.jpg
So, here's what I have so far for my Das3:
HONEY/TKL/BASE (TKL base kit | $31)
HONEY/ALPHA/BLACK (ALPHA kit in black | $39)
HONEY/NUMPAD/BLACK (Numpad black kit | $19)
HONEY/SPACE625/GREY (Space (6.25 units; grey) | $2)
HONEY/APPLE125 (APPLE kit (1.25 units) | $4)
Am I missing anything?

The amazing thing about this group buy is, that it took only 5 seconds until the Honeywell color-scheme had been suggested for Round 5:

I'm quite sure this is the shortest time for an an interest check, ever!
ps:
After Daniel Bearsdmore added the infobox to
wiki/Round_5, I've made some changes ...

That
"Follows Round 4
Precedes Round 6"
scares me

As if it was a surprise. :p
What would 7bit do without an currently open keycap group buy with endless options to please everyone?

We still need more orders for white stuff, but because of the high volume of other keys, I've decided to definitely keep them in the group buy.
I guess that means it's time to pay up!

Yes!
First order more, then pay up.

@7bit: I'm not sure where I could find this answer, but if I order something from CherryMX and 7bot, is there a chance that shipping could be combined?

Definetly thinking about it. An all white layout would be rather classy... *wallet screams in agony*
Regarding shipping - Will european orders ship from within the EU? I'm thinking about the lovely swedish 25% VAT and additional customs fees here?

That's a bit nasty. Paid up and the bank takes 10 EUR off. Really? That's VERY high for a transfer charge (and my bank already did the conversion to euros). Warning for anyone else: don't use SEPA when paying.

Erhem!
You are not in the EU and not in the EUR zone.

Any news on the R1 2u key tooling?
Posted: 18 Feb 2014, 22:32
by 7bit
Nothing yet. But I'm quite sure if everybody pays until the Monday following the 28th, production can start quite soon.

Do you have a plan yet for shipping, 7bit? Do you know what carrier you will use and where USA orders will be shipped from?

US orders will be shipped from Germany, while all others will be shipped from Germany.
Shipping will be by Post/DHL, which will be locally delivered by national postal services (like USPS).

Nice monitor stand you have.
I recommend you to order 2 sets of HONEY/HHKB.

That's like asking an old woman if she has any pictures of her grandkids.

I saw HONEY/HHKB in the Wiki, but I didn't see any reference to there being any Topre keycaps. Aren't they only available in Cherry MX? Did I miss something or is SP doing Topre now? That would be really cool, if so.

You're not the first to be fooled by that kit's name. But there is hope:
Matteo might have a little something for that!
