    • @CosmicApe
      @CosmicApe 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yes and no. Other companies can still charge more by always having stock available. The QK65 is an incredible board, but even with how quick Owlabs can turn their product around, it's a barrier to entry to have to wait on a GB window and then wait another 6-8 weeks for delivery (even if that's fast in the keyboard community).

    • @CosmicApe
      @CosmicApe 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@RealColeFarlow That might be the goal but we'll see what the reality ends up being. With the current global supply chain and the fact that Owlabs will continue to focus on new products, I personally doubt we'll see the QK65 become a genuinely "in stock" product. At best I think they'll stock a low volume of ready-to-ship units that once sold out won't restock for a couple months. Essentially it'll be a disguised GB.

    • @RealColeFarlow
      @RealColeFarlow 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@CosmicApe would be surprised if they didn’t focus on their most sold keyboard ever. If not, then that’s just bad business. It’s a simple business tactic that they would focus on the product that gets them the most sales/views/traction/etc.
      Even if it is their cheapest product. Just my opinion. If they want trust from their customers, they’ll follow through on their promises when it comes to their most sought after product.

      This board is 190$ shipped. If anyone charged nearly 400$ for this board they would be torn apart for the production corners they cut. The entire inner half of the weight is factory raw. Like unfinished metal. Lets just appreciate this board without making stabs at other companies. I embrace the majority of high end boards and their prices, and rarely do I see a price that can’t be represented in the final product somehow. Little QC details really add up to manufacturing costs. This board is OwLabs answer to the INCREDIBLE popularity their Jelly and Suit earned them. A ton of quarantine keebers just want that marble boy on their desk and this is the answer for them. But to say this would cost double from anyone else is just not true. God imagine a 400$ rev 2 knock off with bakeneko QC? People would riot.

      @xJeremypspx 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@stryke1989 don’t forget the mode65 that looks hugely similar starts at double the price, and much higher with aftermarket prices. Of course the inner isn’t unfinished like in this case, but is it really worth paying >2x the price for something you can’t see from outside?

  • @ivovass195
    @ivovass195 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6
