Quality Disclaimer

While we strive to provide a perfect experience no kit can be 100% flawless at our scale of production, as such the caveats are as follows:

  • No scratches on exposed / user facing parts of the keyboard (after installation of plate & PCB).
  • Possible machining marks / micro scratches on the inside of the kit / pieces not exposed to the user. This includes scratches arising from anodisation hooks.
  • Screw holes are NOT anodised.
  • Possible marks close to screw area.
  • Raw top and bottom pieces may have scratches present and are susceptible to scratches. These raw parts may also be tarnished over time if left uncoated.
  • Anodisation and e-coating variation may be present between top and bottom pieces.
  • Copper patina: Copper as a material tarnishes over time, you can clean it but note that it's a form of oxidation that we cannot control.
  • Marks / streaks that are not visible after assembly.
  • Please note that your purchase denotes agreement to group buy rules which include all the above.
