We know that it’s a long wait for people that didn’t make it into the first Batch of Pok3rs, so we’ve worked it out so that everyone in Batch 2 (Estimated July Delivery) will be receiving a special modifier set with their keyboard.
AndrewLekashmanWHAT?! Come on, you knew it would sell it out, and so now everyone who got in early gets a lesser deal than those who get in late? That sucks.
People in batch 2 have no reason to stay in batch 2 because other vendors are going to receive stock within the next two weeks. This is an incentive to stick with your batch 2 order.
I for one appreciate it and don't mind waiting for my white board w/browns.
retainerboxPoor planning, last minute decision making, limited supply, loss of profit. I'm sure there were a lot of factors that went into this decision.
Your comment makes me sad, you're even given the choice to decide which favour to take. 10 weeks earlier the pleasure of this keyboard or the extras given to keep the second batch although happy.
Would be different if you couldn't choose. But you want it all, sound and behave like a little kid.
Yes, this is selfish and greedy.
retainerboxCake. Eat it. Mutually exclusive.
I don't see anyone getting stiffed (and I'm in the first batch). All those who got in on the first batch got in early knowing what they're getting, what they're paying, when they'll get it. None of that changed. You can always trade some caps and a wire keycap puller for 10 extra weeks.
If you have a first batch grey with clear switch, I'd be very grateful if you opt for second batch :)
I see it more as a consolation prize for the second group, seeing as how they are waiting 2.5 months longer than the first group to get their keyboard. They are paying the same amount and waiting much, much longer to get their keyboard. That being said, the whole set can easily be found for around $10 bucks, definitely not worth complaining about.
And lets be honest, we all replace our keycaps with expensive keysets anyways, I rarely see a stock Poker anywhere.
livingspeedbumpThe stock keys are nice though... I really wish there was a stealth option. Not saying it's worth complaining batch 1 isn't getting the rgb modifiers just wanted to addon it's sometimes hard to have an excuse to get a keyset to replace them because their quality.
