Oh boy. Already at 88$ with nearly six days of bidding left. That beam spring is going to go for a pretty penny.

Edit: Never mind. Bidding started at 88$ -- I thought it was one of those 1$ no limit eBay listings.

Did someone say beam spring? http://www.ebay.de/itm/alte-Computer-IBM-3741-Data-Station-von1974-/161510080045?pt=Antike_B%C3%BCrotechnik&hash=item259ac03e2d If anyone seriously wants this I can share info on how to organize a transport. The notorious beamspring desk! http://i.ebayimg.com/t/alte-Com...

At that price I'll grab a set!

Just picked up my order yesterday Ivan -- the keys are great! If there are any extra 'Skeletor' or 'Esc strikes back' keys, I'd be interested in one of each.

Might help if you defined what exactly you mean by 'a whole set'.

Anyone live in Virginia comfortable with running a group buy for the 6580s? I'm sure there are people around here interested in grabbing one of the keyboards and perhaps a monitor or the main computer body. Personally, I'd jump at the chance to grab one of the up-arrow keys. That's the only keycap I...

Don't let it become a planter

Thanks for posting about this -- I ended up grabbing it.

And don't worry, it won't become a planter!

Neither! You buy six keyboard's worth of keycaps.

On a more serious note, I think I'll hold off until the prices stabilize. I'm pretty tapped thanks to recent car maintenance.

:lol: And you know, Mr. binary 120 over there asked for some pictures from previous rounds... a little surprised we haven't seen a picture of your round 4 keycaps yet! < Whistles …> :roll: We should add a new category to this year's DT awards: User most responsible for advertising Round 5 . :) I sw...

No, we're invoiced up front. As if things would be so simple! The key to every 7bit group buy is uncertainty… ;) Hey now, the uncertainty is part of the charm! :lol: And you know, Mr. binary 120 over there asked for some pictures from previous rounds... a little surprised we haven't seen a picture ...

I'm new here and I'd like to order a set but I have a few questions. 1) I see that this is Round 5a. Where can I see pictures of the previous rounds that were run? Rounds 1-4? 2) I'm very interested in purchasing a set. But why are the prices so expensive? Is it because the amount needed for produc...

Does this rebate apply to Round5a orders as well?

Whelp. Another month on ramen.

Annddd... they're up for general purchase now! Just grabbed three for myself, and a few of those cherry stabs.

Can't wait until they arrive!

QWERTim wrote: ↑ Should be plenty. They'll be on sale shortly after the group buy has gone out.

Then I'll keep on the lookout for them. Thanks!

They have arrvied! They look amazing! http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20/mammatt/2014-09-09101519_zpsa0938ee0.jpg Now how in the world did I miss this? I assume there are some number of extras that will be up for sale at some point in the future? Edit: ;) Probably should have read the initial pos...

:? Another heads up for those involved in this group buy who don't frequent Geekhack. :) GhostofHarry is initiating the second round (colored keysets) and is holding a poll in order to determine which colors will be up for purchase this second time around. You can cast your vote and see the availabl...

Now those keycaps look cool!

7bit should separate those from the grab bags and bid them off as one-ofs this time around.

You got a deal. 1U sun key for 1U Alt key.

Sounds good to me. I'll shoot you a quick PM to get shipping details and all that ironed out.

I have a left shift from a .de model M . Will that work? Not really -- but thanks for making me check! I have a spare model M left shift lying around here, never thought to check to see if it matched up with the AT's keyset layout.

Interested in your Tab and Backspace keys! I bought the Gamer Kit from Round 2, but I don't plan on using the colored arrow set, so let me know if you think that'd be an acceptable trade for the Tab/Backspace keycaps.

Just a heads up for the rest of us that don't browse GeekHack regularly -- GhostofHarry has finalized the order with Taihao, and we've entered production!

Whooooo!

Here in Canada, nearly every processed food is now toxic - filled with chemicals and/or genetically modified ingredients. Unlike Europe, there is no required GMO labelling here, so it is impossible to avoid unless you make all your own food with carefully selected ingredients. It's like a giant con...

Check the original post, there's an ISO enter key available in the Add-On pack, although none of the Add-On packs have yet met MOQ. The Dolch Add-On pack is the closest, with just under 70% of MOQ met. Add-ons have an artificial MOQ of 100 through price tiers, see original post: « Price In Tier (Ea...

Can I still place an order for this by the end of today please? Just go ahead and submit an order -- my bet is that TaiHao won't let us go into production for Granite or Olivette without hitting MOQ, and we'll extend the deadline by another month.
