Sadly due to SP’s new pricing structure we will have to look
at other avenues to have this set produced. Community run SA
sets are no longer affordable or reasonable, see below
As
long as you’re not buying from Massdrop or PMK so they can
make money, it’s gonna cost them the same amount of money
for them to produce but cost you more to get your set so
they can make up for the money they lose out on without
marking up the sets.

If we take a look here at a set run recently which
should have been after their supposed price increase, Base
kit + ISO + nonstandard + numpad = $150.96 at 100 MOQ (which
not every kit even met that MOQ, some of the numbers are
abysmal)
That includes Massdrop + designer mark ups in
pricing, has significantly more keys involved than my all in
1, has kits split up, and even custom legends novelty and
dyesub which cost $45 each, AND includes shipping costs to
Massdrop.
The quote I was given from SP was the
following:
25 sets $237.61 per set
50 sets $171.32
per set
75 sets $149.23 per set
100 sets $138.18
per set
150 sets $127.13 per set
200 sets $121.61
per set
250 sets $118.29 per set
The set I’m
quoting is 138 keys with 2 space bars and 2 blanks, no
custom legends, and does not include ANY additional fees,
not even shipping to our distributor and then shipping to
you guys.
Yet both of our sets are $1/key at 100 MOQ
Hm……….

So dusk was $169 for 130 keys split into 4 different kits,
they got it even worse.
Official response was
“Sorry
I wasn’t clear - Massdrop gets a larger discount because of
the overall volume that they purchase from us. We use the
same price formula and the same set volume discount scale,
Massdrop just has earned a larger discount.”
So
basically all these GB’s we’ve run giving them money all
these years earns us a big ////
you.

WELCOME TO FLATLINE
This will be a fully sculpted SA set (1-1-2-3-4-4)
with whatever the stock font is. Colors used will be BBJ and
NN. It will be all in 1 with as much support for other
layouts as I can without jacking up the price too high to be
unreasonable. Not sure if there are plans for other kits
atm. No novelty keys. F and J are dishes.
If you have
questions or suggestions feel free to post.
This will
be run old school GB style, no corporate backing and no
profit. Just some enthusiasts dedicating some time and love
to creating a set the community wants.
Also stayed
tuned for some matching Classic Reapers.
NOTE: THE REAPER WILL NOT BE INCLUDED IN THIS GROUP
BUY AND IS A STANDALONE SALE UP TO BRO’S DISCRETION. I am
however getting him the SP color swatches of NN and BBJ so
it will color match this set
