The "group buy" concept just doesn't seem to be effective for widely available mechanical keyboards. I know this would greatly reduce the selection here, but it would be great if only true group buys were represented, where a real savings or even access to a usually hard-to-find product is offered because of the group buy concept. We are enthusiasts anyway. We know where to find these keyboards and where they are cheapest. Give us the hard-to-find, unusual, quality items that are made possible by our participation.
KellyHIt seems to be more effective with the niche items, like you state. I assume it’s hard to compete with amazon; better prices and faster shipping. The massdrop Ctrl keyboard drop was amazing...the quality and passion of the massdrop products overall is what keeps me getting in on drops.
