I really hope there wont be any missing / duplicate keys as in previous drops. Good luck sorting this amount of keys :)

dnajaxI imagine it will be how pharmaceutical companies sort medication. Lots of conveyor belt systems and 80s montage music playing in the background. Ahhh, manufacturing. So intricate to make simple processes fast, cheap and effective.

AElric22I'm curious how this works. They ship bags of unsorted caps in bags and you have to sort them out manually i guess.
I mean, how do they know they sent the proper amount "A" keys for ex.? They don't ship 851 ready/sorted package which they would sell/produce anyways?
Or simply this is the discount deal? "We give you a tons of unsorted product and you deal with the sorting / boxing etc so we can give you X% discount." - Which creates the chance that you put two "A"-s in one pack and another misses one? :)

dnajaxWhat happens is, all the keys are printed/molded as a single set, and they're put into a single bag.
Massdrop, is a group buy sort of deal, so you have 300 people buying a single product, so they can send it out as cheap as possible, bulk buying in other words.
