Love the look of the set, but it's so expensive. It looks cheap until you realize that you need to buy 3 or 4 sets just to be able to cover a standard board. Will there be a price drop point? I want to buy but not at this cost.

cassidoodledooThat's how pretty much all of the custom sets work. This one is actually quite cheap by comparison even without the drop points.
RashkhNot really. It's almost double the price of the XDA Granite sets, the ortholinear set is more expensive than the SA Godspeed set. Someone on Reddit quoted, "Costs me $115 to cover my 46-key 40% keyboard with this set. XDA Granite was about $60 to cover the same keyboard." It's crazy that I have to buy a $30+ kit for a few keys to fill up a board.

cassidoodledooLOL for cheap... GMK Carbon was like what $100 and it covered a lot of layouts.. for this set it will only be for a TKL if you want colored mods it will be $108 shipped to me. And this one is made in China, TF is up with the prices?

cassidoodledoo" Costs me $115 to cover my 46-key 40% keyboard with this set."
That's the price of using such a niche board. It costs $106 to kit out a standard full size with the beta kit. Under $100 with the cheaper alphas.

punksinatraThis set is $97 for a full sized board including the num pad. That $100 Carbon didn't cover full size standard. I know because it would've cost me about $140-160, I don't remember exactly how much.

RashkhGMK Carbon covered full standard. Here is the compatibility for the GMK Carbon: 100%, TKL, 75%, 60%, WKL, US ANSI, US ISO, G80-1800 lookalike layouts (ZZ96 or Duck Lightsaver), Leopold FC660m or Clueboard, HHKB with MX stems (excluding space bar)
Even if I paid $140 for GMK carbon it will still cover more layouts for less compared to this keyset

punksinatraWow, when did this drop happen? I might be thinking about a different Carbon drop.

RashkhThere's only been one Gmk Carbon drop and it was $140.
The SA Carbon drop from 2015 was priced pretty high, as are all SA drops.
