Your french kit is wrong, the AltGrlegend on the =+ key should be } not ).

Is it just the render that's wrong or the real kit ?

French kit has been amended.

DSA ROYAL NAVY R2 IS NOW AVAILABLE

What's the timetable for this set? i.e. When does it end? What is the target for payment to the manufacturer? I'm assuming the manufacturer is SP? When is it scheduled to start production? What is the target for it to be shipped?

Cancel that, one of the 2 proxy GB runners just let me know the numbers, the chinese have bought a lot of everything, including 15 French kits. Not quite 20 but i've counted it as close enough.

So yeah... all kits have hit MOQ!

Ends tonight, midnight GMT

It looks like i can still can buy kits, or i am wrong ? At least MechSupply lets me add to cart..

Edit: bought !

UKKeycaps · 21 Nov 2017, 22:52

Yup, plenty of left-over kits available

Guys, either I'm going crazy or I have now two (2) acute accents on my keyboard.

Also, the printing on the alphas seem inconsistent. Some look bold, while others look normal. Will post pics tomorrow (today).

cml · 07 Mar 2018, 16:30

Number keys "1", "4" and "6" look bold to me. Also do "," and ".". Compare them to letters "P", "R" or "D".

Is this normal?

@cml, yep that looks inconsistent, also SHIFT..
If mine will come like that, i'll be forced to send it back. Coming from SP and the price paid this is not acceptable to me.

UKKeycaps · 13 Mar 2018, 22:07

Seems like an error by SP, this doesn't effect most kits. Email via the contact page if you need any replacement keys.

cml · 14 Mar 2018, 21:09

I really liked this set but I opted for a return.

If it was one or two keys I'd waited for replacements, but there were half a dozen bad ones: small left Shift, red Sail, the South in the 1.25u wind roses, Pause and Scroll, reverse acute grave accent

At least the return process is being seamless so far. Thank you.

rundeploy · 21 Mar 2018, 17:28

Just got mine. I have the same "!" and some other keys looks awkward .I don't know what to do, to think "it is not a defect, it's a feature"

or to ask if is it possible to substitute some of the strange lettering keys like this one:
look at the SUPER and SHIFT, the S of the super is not the same
