'Barebones Stormtrooper'
MaNiFeX's Group Buy #01

Goals:
- Quality
- Reasonable
- Transparent process

Features:
- GMK Keyset with Black on White color way (CR on CP)
- ANSI, ISO, TKL, 60%, %40, HHKB, and Winkeyless layouts
- Traditional legends

Information:
Barebones Stormtrooper (BBST) is a low-cost, full featured keyset using the popular black on white color way. Like a stormtrooper, it's mostly white with black accents, simple, easy to read, and won't be very distinguishable. It will get the job done, though!

Pricing:
$110 USD

Shipping:
All shipping done through USPS using PayPal address. Shipping prices will scale depending on quantity ordered. To be reflected on invoice.

- Domestic: $5 USD
- Domestic with Tracking/Insurance: $7.50 USD
- International: $15 USD

3rd Party Adjudication:
fknraiden has graciously volunteered to be my adjudicator in the case I become unresponsive. We have known each other, personally, for over a year and run a club that hosts workshops regularly. He also knows where I live, so... you'll get your set!

I thought we were quite a bit above MOQ when you started invoicing? A lot of people must've dropped out when the invoice arrived. That's not very nice...

Quick Update: Everyone is paid up, sending money to GMK this week. There are 8 spots open from people who dropped. Send me PM here or on reddit if you'd like a spot. Thanks!
