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. Raw parts may also tarnish 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.
