PLEASE READ EVERYTHING BEFORE POSTINGTsangan 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.

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.
