Jesus, i have 2 undergrad degrees and a MBA and i cant figure out how to order keycaps.

The wiki for Round 6 explains it pretty thoroughly. But you have to be good at writing messages to the 7bot formatted without any errors. Which is dumb because humans make typing errors all the time. The 7bit ordering system is not intended to be user friendly, only 7bit-friendly.

Yes, they will stay there forever.

The bot is only reading the notification.

The bot is ignoring my order and my wassup.

GriffDeLaGriff wrote: The bot is ignoring my order and my wassup.

I was able to cancel an order earlier today. :/ Not sure why it's not working for you.

Hi, I'm still trying to wrap my head around how this works.

I got an email from the bot a few days ago saying

Dear pvd,

here is your invoice:

================== Shipping-address ==================
[shipping address]
======================================================


Invoice [invoice number] for pvd

Order-ID |Description | Price|Qt|Pcs| Total
| | | | |
LOCKED |items can't be cleared| | | |
[kits I ordered]
Amount Due | | | | | 0.00


Everything has been paid up to the penny!

Thank you for your order!

==============================================================
Your order will be shipped uninsured, without tracking,
in 1 pack, at a weight of 0g.
==============================================================

So... does this mean my kits have already been shipped? Are all the kits that have been ordered shipped out at some regular interval? Is there anything I have to do on my end? Is it just time to play the waiting game?

Thx for the help

It looks to me like the order simply doesn't contain anything at all.

still nothing

I ordered the Hyper 7 Space Cadet kit, I just edited that part out of the quote I posted earlier.

._.

I think 7bit has to actually run the bot, for the WASSUPs to get responses.

I sent one too... after all this time, I honestly have no idea what I ordered and what I haven't gotten yet. Luckily, eventually, the bot will tell me, rather than me having to actually find the old invoice emails!

7bit run the bot rq k? tyty!

I have already paid for the round 7，I received an e-mail yesterday，it makes me pay for another 27.49usd for round 7

why???

Perhaps that question is better suited for the Round 7 thread? Or better yet, a PM to 7bit.

You should be able to find out what has happened by looking at the mails from 7bot. For example, If prices on some kits have gone up that might explain owing more money than you previously paid. And if a payment has been registered and then somehow forgotten by the bot, that should also be readily apparent in your invoice – it contains a list of your complete payment history.

Just got the message that production is almost finished, except for those little mistakes such as the wrong legend or so.

I will get photos soon.

Because we need some money to pay for shipping, please pay everybody their bill within the next 10 days. I will also clear orders which had been unpaid for too long. If you want your money back, please wait a few more weeks until we have enough funds together.

For all those who got 40% summer sellout rebate:
I've made a mistake and calculated 50% rebate and have now corrected that error, so some people indeed have to pay a little bit more than they thought they have to pay.


If you want to check for yourself, the formula is a bit complicated (involves solving a differential equation which contains an integral with boundaries that depend on non-continuous functions which in turn depend on time ...)

Let p be the amount you paid including the PayPal fees (f=1.04) and r the rebate, then R=p/(f*(1/r-1)) is the actual rebate.
1.04 is the 4% for the PayPal fees. If you paid via Google Wallet or SEPA, then f=1.


Example:
You paid $100 via PayPal, the 40 Summer Sellout rebate is $64.10 .


If you think it is wrong, here is the test:

100/1.04 = 96.15 (amount without PayPal fees)
(96.15+64.10)*0.4 == 64.10 (40%)
(96.15+64.10)*0.6 == 96.15 (60%)

If any of the cleared out orders have the following items, I can pay in full as early as Monday eastern for them.

great news on the production! thanks 7bit!

regarding the calculation error... if i send a wassup to the bot will he do the calc for me? i trust him. somewhat.

I extremely new to the keyboard game and I was wondering what would be the best way to get Honeywell keycaps for my KBT Pure Pro keyboard.

Just like this picture below



Thank you!

^^^ most kits you would need are still available ^^^



I've uploaded all pictures of the already produced keys:



Please let me know if you spot any errors.

SA Dasher&Dancer recently shipped from Massdrop and you can see in everyones pictures that the 5 key is too high aligned



It looks like it is for your keys as well. Both sets are WFK so I assume they produced the first shot at the same time, so the erroneous placement of the legend plate is affecting both

Edit: XMIT 1u also looks way too high
NO and GO are also on the verge of being grab bag material

Thanks!

Here is a picture of Round 5 black keys: It seems in Round 6 they already used the higher up %5-legend:

they look super lush 7bit! that deep red is absolutely gorgeous...!!!!!

looking at the leftovers list, i don't think there are... but any chance there's a spare set of grey honeyb keys for row 1?

I can't believe it's finally happening!


I noticed that the quantity for some common letters from the same color are vastly different. (see picture below)
Is this expected? Where do the differences come from?

I've ordered extras to go with Round 5 grab bag keys.

If there is a black numnum in the soon to be cleared orders I can pay it ASAP!!!!

But also please run the bot so I can see if I ever got the standalone keyes I ordered and so I can pay for those atleast.

Are there going to be any extras produced? I am looking for a 225 shift in black.

And I'm on the special waiting list for a HONEYB/BLACK/NUMPAD or HONEYB/BLACK/NUMOP kit. I think we're all going to be disappointed...

Special list! Mama needs red modifiers.

Wo0t wo0T! The arrival of my Round 6 order might well coincide with the delivery of my Katana60 PCBs, wow!!!

quick question re the colour matching...

i saw this part of the thread which talks about the cadet and r5/r6 greys... could someone just confirm that the R5 and R6 grey is exactly the same?

post384552.html?hilit=r5%20grey#p384552

many thanks!
