As someone who lives in the UK, the division of keycap sets seems incredibly unfair to anyone outside the US. For me to get the standard UK windows keyboard - which I'm sure a sizeable number of people here will want - I would have to buy the common kit, the standard modifiers, the pro modifiers (just for alt gr), ISO enter, the International keycap set (for only 6 of the 86 keys) and a windows kit. With $15 shipping, that's a kick in the arse of $150! Surely I'm not the only one who thinks this is a little steep? Would it not make more sense to offer more kits tailored to each country's needs, even if each kit ends up a little more expensive per key? It would allow people to avoid paying ridiculous amounts of money for hundreds of keys they don't want.

sirroy12You don't need a windows kit. The text set comes with "super" keys and the icon set has diamonds. As for Alt Gr, you can just use an alt key, no? I know this might be a little annoying. But it saves you $25. The international kit I'll agree with, and there are multiple people trying to work together to split sets. The reason we can't offer individual sets for each language/Country is because there is a minimum order quantity for each set to go into production.

sirroy12I know. I'm sorry about that. We made Round 2 kits projecting the numbers from Round 1 and we thought that the international kits were quite risky. Actually MD didn't want to run international kits at all, but I sneaked them anyway.
R2 is going better than expected so in hindsight we could have split the UK kit (that was the original idea actually). All I can say is that hopefully MD will lower the intl kit price considering the success of this drop.

matt3oEdit: Nevermind, just noticed the "add another selection" being available from inside the transactions page. Do you know if it is possible to add more to an order if the price drops?

chrisqYou can add more before the drop ends, just go to your transactions page and hit the add another option button.
