You can send them in the same message

Don't worry if you haven't got enough to make a full on TKL layout, then order some MORE .

Round 5a is still running, so don't miss out on this before it's too late.......

I already have a paid Round 5a order. But with the Round 5 extras it looks like I could get something earlier.

Also, do you order round 5 leftovers and round 5A stuff in the same message to the bot?

I apologize if these questions have been asked a thousand times, 284 pages is a lot of pages

Edit: Is 5A going to be a quicker turnaround, or am i looking at a 2 year wait again? lol

Yes, they are still open and yes, you can mix them together.


Edit: My plan is to sort and ship before Christmas.

For the uninitiated, notice there was no specific Christmas mentioned, just a Christmas...

Just got mine today, a package on a saturday, I would never have expected that from the danish postal service.

Everything is there, with one error though, unfortunately.

I got a UK style 2 button ( " and 2 ) but not the danish ( " 2 and @ ) so if anyone is expecting the UK style and got a danish let me know, and we can trade.

I'm going to send a pm to 7bit first though in case he is mising one and has one too many of the other.

7bit, is it too much of a pain to ask for an address change on my order? It's 0065

Just pm the bot:
ADDRESS
your now address

I am curious how many people have selected the cream and violet color scheme in Round 5a. I decided to go out on a limb and select a non-traditional scheme for my Honey set, and the color combination looked quite attractive to me.

From what I can tell, nearly every set that was offered in Violett or Cream has 5 or fewer orders (and many sets have 0 orders). The Cream TKL kit has more than 10 though.

Hmm. Let's see if submitting a new order clobbers my old one. I really hope not.

Now that SA Retro has been delayed (due to SP running out of plastic ) Round 5 may even show up at my doorstep first.

EDIT: Not quite enough spare keys here to nicely populate a TKL board. I'll wait to see if there are more leftovers.

Spamming 7bot with order messages hasn't clobbered any part of my order so far.

Seriously? Where did you read this? What a disappointment.

It's in the GH thread, Matt3o said they ran out of brown plastic.

Oh, shame nobody posted it in the DT thread... Maybe I should've stuck with Round 5a after all, if SA Retro is going to be delayed!

Was there any talk about extending the deadline for people who are still waiting on their Round 5 orders to ship? I suspect I'll order a lot more when I see how good these caps look in person. It's also a little hard psychologically to spend more money after having thrown in several hundred dollars without actually receiving anything.

So does the fact that a price quote has been sent to SP for Round 5a mean that the keycaps for each set are locked in now and can't be changed?

Was this ever a choice? I'm in for both.

It was for me. >€100 each on two sets of keycaps in the same profile and the same mount isn't interesting for me -- I'd much rather get one great SA set and then spend the excess on another interesting profile or mount.

At the same time, Cherry boards aren't all that interesting
I'd need so many boring, standard keyboards to fit all of these keycap sets!

I'm surprised none of the FUNCTION set keycaps have a "HELP" legend. Anyone else feel this is a good/obvious alternate for F1?

Has 7bot been responding to anyone else? Trying to get an updated quote so I can pay but haven't heard anything from it in like a day I think I'm just anxious/impatient but it'd suck to miss this...

No reason to worry, 7bot is busy! You'll get the mail soon enough, and you're not going to miss R5a unless you hibernate for a year or so!

Screwed-up newspaper also works quite well as a packaging material. It's usually free too.

I've added DVORAK and COLEMAK kits, plus some |\ kits.

Good to see I'm not the only one who can't get through to 7bot
