Any interest in a group buy for the let’s split?
In case you dont know the let’s split.

//The 2nd part of the interest check for the let’s split.//
So this is a 2nd interest check. I have some more updated part quotes to give people a more accurate price point.
Also, you will be able to order just PCB, PCB with parts, or just a case! Multiples will be allowed!

/* PCB - $6
/* Pro Micros - $8
/* Acrylic Top/Bottom - $15
/* Aluminum Top/Acrylic Bottom - $28 (aluminum with bead blast finish)
/* Aluminum Top/Bottom - $36 (aluminum with bead blast finish)

/* Gateron Switches - $.28 a switch for less than 2000 switches ordered. $.24 a switch over 2000 (trying to track down others. But gateron for sure) (Orders will be in sets of 10 just to help me out.)
/Matias Switches. Read below.

Shipping CONUS will be about $9 (shipping cost+ some extra packing materials) unless I can find a cheaper way to ship :)
//Some Quick Price Estimates//
So… the cheapest package (Acrylic case + parts + no RGB + shipping CONUS+Paypal fees) would come to about $57 shipped.
The most expensive package (alu case + parts + rgb + shipping CONUS + Paypal fees) would come to about $83.
//CASES//
So… just to go over more about the cases. I will only be choosing 2 of the 3 listed more than likely(unless interest becomes huge).
The 2 most popular choices thus far are aluminum top with acrylic bottom and aluminum top and bottom. Aluminum parts as of this moment are only going to be bead blasted. I may offer powder coating for an extra fee or anodizing. The Acrylic parts will be able to be chosen from 5 parts.
//Cases with better underglow//
For those wanting RGB Underglow, I will be offering frosted transparent acrylic bottoms as well. ($1.50 extra probably)
//International Shipping//
I will be offering international shipping. The shipping cost will be higher.
I have an offer from /u/mechboards to ship all UK parts to him and have him ship to people over there. That will greatly reduce the price of shipping for the UK.
I will be reaching out to other vendors to see if I can get more deals like this going.
//Switches//
Gateron switches will be available. I’ll probably limit it to 4 different types. We will see….
Kind of big news, If there is enough interest, I will offer Matias Quiet Linear switches. MOQ for this is 2500. They will be $.35 a piece. If we hit 4800, it will drop to $.22 a piece! Right now, they only have the linear switches in stock. The others will come in to stock in july, and I will be doing a group buy then more than likely!
//Keycaps//
Right now, the cheapest keycap set I have found is a $27 set of DSA Keycaps.
I have contacted a couple manufacturers to see if they can offer a set for us! Will keep you updated!
/Keycap update/
We can get this keycap set for 30 each + shipping! MOQ of 50
//assembly//
Assembly will be $10 :)
//Timeline//
GB will hopefully open in a week and will run for 2 weeks.
After it ends, 3 days for invoices, shipping will start in a month after hopefully :)
