Please make sure to check your sets and let me know if you have anything missing, or duplicate keys you shouldn't have more than one of. I did my best to make sure sets were assembled correctly, but mistakes will happen.

Last orders that were waiting on stab parts have finally been shipped.
NOW... what some of you have been waiting for...
THOSE THAT DID NOT HAVE AN ORDER IN THE ORIGINAL GROUPBUY WILL GET PRIORITY.
I have TWO 'full' sets available, at the discount price of $100 shipped US, $105 shipped international.
All will be missing the $4 and F5, but have JOKER keys as stand ins.
Some may also be missing 2.25 left shift key, and/or some cursor key so you will need to pick up something to replace those from EK or elsewhere.
These may also have keys with small scratches or other minor cosmetic defects.
Miscellaneous single keys will be listed sometime later this week when I have more time.

It's a dual language US/Spanish set so it has the Spanish legends side printed.

I really really really like the text only legends as well. Even I'm surprised by that, I'm usually a symbols only guy.

No, euro is weak, so it's a bad time to spend euros, hence my question.

EUR-USD rate is so close to 1.0 that it makes international shipping very painful

I like the color a lot, but I have a very bad gut feeling regarding the Spanish legends vs. the GH / US ANSI crowd.
Also, I don't really like that the Spanish legends on the modifiers are in second colour, which means I can't combine the mods of this set with the alphas of a WoB or Dolch or Skidata set of my language layout, which would have been awesome.
Ivan, I had hoped that you would have taken away from the last buys that an interest check can in fact do some good now that you are experienced enough to read it properly.

Surely some will fuss about it, but since standard US legends are the primary legends, and it doesn't add in additional keys I have a feeling most people will be OK with the side printed legends as it was with Dolch and GB layout.
I would like to move through various 'major' languages in this way, so while it's not cost effective to get full doubleshots when it adds a bunch of extra keys, adding pad printing is fairly trivial cost wise and adds more support for various users. I also think it looks visually interesting too (which is why the Spanish is opposite color for alphas and mods, more visual impact), but that is my own opinion.
I think the text only legends for the modifiers are quite nice too, it's all pretty much totally uniform (except for the Windows and menu key being oh so special and having an icon).
Consider this as the interest check. For now.

I really like the idea that the side printed legends are in the color of the modifiers. Fits perfect!
It would not be the colorway I like in general (too much disco) and prefer more the rather boring colored group buys like Round 5, 80|15, Beige GMK, etc.

Not plans to split alphas, mods+extras and numpad or something like so ISO people could order more just what they'll be using ?

I agree with this, from the render anyway; cool idea but might wait this one out.

For whatever mysterious reasons, with GMK pricing goes very different when you split things up. It's cheaper to keep more stuff in a set.
From some discussion at GH for those that don't go over there...
Lots of issues about having mix of A/B profile for 1.25 winkey user. Suggest to make the base set A only, and add cursor in B profile to the CMYK v2 kit to take care of it. Perhaps offer alternate stand alone numpad set in another color, such as bright green for example, on black with B profile not A.
As always, colors and legends will not be to everyone taste. It's always about tailoring kits to most use cases as is feasible for the lowest possible costs.

If possible, add some blank keys, this way you will make happy all those who prefer blank keys to wrong keys

(all the ISO users).
3 R4
3 R3
2 R2
2 R1
What color are the legends of the alphanumeric keys? UN6037 Cyan?
Blue would be much nicer

perfect to complement this wonderful modifier set!
