PLEASE READ EVERYTHING BEFORE POSTING
Tsangan kits are all the rage lately, due I suppose
to the influx of Korean keyboards which tend to use 1.5x
modifiers. Lots of people are trying to buy used or leftover
tsangan kits from recent group buys. Why not see if there is
enough demand to just run some more? To be honest, I’m not
confident this will get off the ground. But I’d like to give
it the old college try. Interest checks are pointless, so
man up and fill out the order form!
For the
uninitiated: Modern, standard-layout keyboards like the
Filco, Leopold, Rosewill, Poker, Quickfire Rapid, etc. use
1.25x modifier keys, a long right Shift, and a center-mount
Caps Lock. A tsangan kit adapts a particular key set for use
with a keyboard that uses 1.5x modifiers, short right Shift,
and/or an off-center Caps Lock. Kind of like the inverse of
a moogle kit. There are some gotchas to a set like this
(e.g., the off-center Caps Lock). So noobs, please:
if you’re unsure about something please read the thread
and then ask if you don’t see your question
answered.
I have five versions in mind. Chime in in the thread
if you want to add a different variation. The ones that
don’t get many orders will be dropped (possibly all of
them!)
- Cream Cheese & Green
- Red Alert 2.0 (red, white, and grey versions)
-
Cherry replica (white on black)
The RA sets will include an off-center Caps Lock key. CCnG and Cherry replica will not. Melissa gave me the following breakdowns. The final cost of your order will include a fee to cover fixed costs such as packing supplies, shipping from SP to me, the legend fee for the Cherry replica “Fn” key, etc. -
RA sets*
25 sets $25.92 50 sets $17.77 75 sets $15.05 100 sets $13.69 150 sets $12.33 200 sets $11.65 -
CCnG and Cherry replica*
25 sets $25.02 50 sets $17.16 75 sets $14.84 100 sets $13.10 150 sets $11.89 200 sets $11.05
In the interest of transparency due to recent and ongoing discussions on this forum, I will say up front that I am not running this to make money. The quotes above are the real, raw production cost. That said, in order to help ensure that I don’t lose money (and to simplify invoicing), I will be rounding up the final prices of each set to the nearest dollar. Depending on how robust the ordering feels, and the final number of orders we reach, I may also buy up extras to the next price tier in order to provide extras after the buy, and to cover lost/damaged keys. If this happens, I will not mark up the extras after the buy.
Standard shipping options. Bubble mailer and small USPS Priority box. I will be using small bubble mailers that will likely fit at most two kits. More than that will need to use priority shipping. If you have an extra large order, we can work out shipping to fit your needs. -
Bubble mailer* Priority
US $3 $6
International $5 $18
To order, fill out the fancy google form. If you want to change your order, fill out the form again and PM me to remove your initial order.
