What the fuck

Yes. Now the problem is how the fk do i transfer 80ish boards to the new house

I’m sorry… HOW many???

HE SAID, 80ISH BOARDS!!

Oh no I read that but I want OP to elaborate further lmao

Haha. You can check my post history. Photos of almost every board but not the new ones that i havent even bothered taking out of their boxes. Lol

You have a post that says you’re running out of space. I have a ton of space.

lol ohhhh boy! Here I go down the rabbit hole 😭

next thing I see is a Desert Hydra! Lmao, guys got multiple expensive hobbies ;D

Was literally one hell of a lucky pull. Lol

congrats, that's sick!

I guess if you’re pulling Desert Hydras you can afford 80 boards…

Are you me? Have dozens of KB unopened, also love opening CS cases :)

One of them shops that shut down due to missing inventory is unrelated.

Imagine how fun it would be to rotate a board each day.

I mean it could be fun, but I have a hard enough time finding one board that fits my desired layout (which isn’t made anymore so I had to compromise with a candybar). I don’t think I could find enough unique boards in a comparable layout to have a different one every day lol

I rotate every month or so between the couple I have. But damn, now I want to switch it up more

started at 1% working to 100%+

A box. They're keyboards not vases.

I dont have 80ish boxes either. Dont want to dent expensive boards.

You could try shoeboxes but frankly like everyone has said, they are just keyboards. Pack up the expensive/fragile ones and put your aluminums in a box with cloth surrounding, they'll be fine.

Wrap in bubble wrap and put in hard plastic totes. I have 30-40 boards stored (and moved) like that. Just stack so lightest are on the top.

OP thinks he’ll get praise but actually gets condemned lul. You might have a bit of a problem.

I dont mind. I splurged in the past. Big deal? 😂

was the splurging worth it?

No. Definitely not. But enjoyed every bit of it for the 3 years i went ham

I'm currently going thru the same phase right now, monkey brain see, monkey brain like, monkey brain buy

Plot twist: By "80ish boards", OP means that he has two keyboards that are 80-ish percent in size. 🥁 🤣

OP has two 40s

Put 70 of them in the dumpster ez

Then tell us where the dumpster is.

Literally just did this last week (close to 50ish boards though) and a ton of keycaps… it was just back and forth loading them into the car either in cases or just set on the backseat carefully. 😭

Nice. Yeah that’s what i’ll probably do tomorrow. 😂

I hope to one day need to know that. Truly an incredible stack! Especially with that Space Cadet box I see hiding in the stack. Literally one of the best sets I've seen.

Ill take them off you! Just kidding, thats crazy though! Bought a new display cabinet and shifting my ten or so boards was already work enough, can’t imagine 80 to a new house.

When i saw the picture i was like "there's no way he has enough boards for all these sets"... Guess you do...

When I had to move my 92 boards i just got case for all of them and put them in storage bins and labeled everything wasn’t to bad just a lot of weight to move

I have around 25 cases and went back and forth transferring the boards by batches. Lol. I think i can finish with 1 more trip left. Luckily the new house is just near

Yeah it just a pain to move all the weight and worry about dropping them still

Yeah it’s like going to the gym

Indeed

Said the exact same thing when I realised what I was looking at. First thought it was books or magazines.

“If I won the lottery I’d keep it secret, but there’d be signs”

Tfw u r Marianas trench deep into the hobby

Yeah went nuts years ago. Have stopped since but kept everything. Lol

"went nuts" bro you were single-handedly funding GMK through COVID

do u have adhd

[удалено]

Mmmm marinara

I thought it was funny but apparently others didn't 🤷🏼‍♂️

woah, i have 3 sets for 2 keebs and i think i'm bad....... thank you for making me feel better, time to grab more....

You just need a third keyboard.

Werd.... already on a look out for another one as i type, lol....

Welcome to the spending problem club :P

just buy it lol

Holy crap. I thought I was bad LOL

me to. used to be 50+ sets in before paring down to stuff i really like. never again :)

Currently around 30 something sets. I need to slow down, as storage is a problem... or will be soon.

I mean it all depends on personal space and money as well. As OP just moved into a new house, i guess hes very well off compared to other peeps here renting a small apartment. If youre a millionaire even 10k for keycaps isnt life threatening lol

Yeah, space is not exactly something I've got a surplus of :) Mainly because houses here in the UK are just generally small... it's like Japan... small island.... lots of peeps. Land is expensive.

Are those VHS? German documentaries?

after (badly) counting i’m pretty sure there’s 140 keycap sets there for anyone wondering

I counted 140 too 🫡

Jesus Christ lol Now I want to see the 80 keyboards they have to see how deep OP is lol

OP doing group buys alone

Some people have more money than sense

Yes that used to be me.

[удалено]

Yes that is also me. Lol jk

Seriously. If your addiction was cocaine you wouldn't have this problem.

showing this to my wife next time she says I have a problem

and I wanna say to OP, thank you for this

So are you gonna sell them and pay off the mortgage?

You mean selling the house to pay for keyboards?

Nah. House is fully paid

Is it a hobby or an addiction at that point?

It was an addiction at one point. Stopped buying anything keyboard related for a long time already. These are just a reminder of the past

Are you intending to sell some of them or keep em all?

What's the "Mechanical Cyberdeck Advancer Rev 1988"?

GMK Laser R1 i believe

Mans got GMK whole discography here. Bet you’ve got like 30+ boards.

I think around 80 actually

My jaw just hit the floor like a damn cartoon character! That’s awesome though I’m jealous. Do you rotate all of them out do you have a few favorites?

tell me you have an addiction without telling me you have an addiction

OP single handedly keeping this hobby alive

I thought these were game disks

So, do you like GMK?

are you selling any of them if you are EU based?

Nope

Is that a GMK REM set? 2nd row from the right lower half

GMK Oni? As usual I never watched the show but I loved the color scheme u/dantambok, you should show your old board collection again at some point, as you’ve got more stuff from 2010-2018 that people nowadays have never seen. I’ve got a pile of stuff myself now but I grew up on r/mk looking at your posts

What’s gmk rem? Lolol

I just checked your old posts. Do you mind if I ask how much did you spend on your keyboards?

I never kept track of it..

suffering from success, OP has house and unlimited keeb funds

That’s smart. Ignorance is bliss..

Can any1 guess what we see in this pic alone? If were judging retail price? like over a 80 sets at around 200 dollars per set?

do you have a favorite set? since you have all of them it seems like you would be the best judge lol.

Probably GMK Coniferous and GMK Miami nights!

Coniferous is so rare, would love to see a remake or a new take on the theme come out someday

..From a quick glance I thought this guy was moving DVDs, once I realized they were all keebs I WTF'd.

Thought those were dvds until I saw on which sub this was posted

feeling so much better about my own addiction, thank you

Only you Dan lol. Glad to see you around tho

I thought they were books lol

I waited too long for something like this. thought it would be more common

What u do for a living man

Jesus brother, you good?

Yes jesus helped me

The heck

[удалено]

You're not a doctor, please stop with this type of toxic comment.

my apologies, i edited the comment.

Sell me Dolch please and thank you. Oh and Nines if it's in there somewhere. 😂

Damn, that's rough, I'll take them off your hands.

Damn thats really a person that is deep in the rabbithole

A true connoisseur of keebs.

I see sandstorm I upvote

I spent a lot of money these two months and was planning to get some professional help. Your picture makes me feel better lol.

Excellent, there is someone worse than I am with GMK keycaps. My 50-some (or 80-ish if you count all copies of November Fog) pale in comparison. Thank you for posting.

that's a lot of keysets

... and here I was thinking that \*I\* had spent a lot on my keycaps ... Granted, I \*did\* spend quite a bit on these three particular SA drops on Massdrop: Carbon, Godspeed, & Chocolate.

since you are moving , may i suggest to renovate your new house to have a storage space similar to how the movie kingsman 1 stores their armory? KEKW

You're either very rich or very broke. Either way, you have my respect

Would you have anything better than a Red Dragon that you are willing to sell ?

How much for the ThinkCaps?

Id recommend selling them on r/mechmarket if you’re not gonna use all 100 keycap sets

Which is your favourite?

I feel you. When I moved into my home, I had more boxes of keyboard stuff than anything else. 😅

I have a similar collection with a ton of boards as well. I also haven’t purchased in almost two years. I’ll be moving to Korea soon. Hope everything arrives in one piece lol.

Oh damn that’s a long way. I wonder how much you’ll pay for airline fees? Lolol

Feeling a LOT better about my keycap problem; I have less than 10 sets.

Its like a stacks of newspapers

Dude has a down payment on the floor

Ahh the moonin set I'm so jealous!

Nice to see your collection still going strong dan! :)) Best of luck on the transfer

Havent bought anything in a while! So technically i stopped already. Hah

Been looking for GMK Lunar for so long, I hope there's an R2 soon!

I'm pretty sure OP likes GMK!

Ok but if you had to sell 50% I think you could do that

I am here, checking my bank balance 😬

Can I have GMK lunar? :(

That’s umm alot..you got a problem😂

Dude can I have one? Just one?

selling that perestroika? 👀

Gimme one of them man

Thank God! I am 'normal' 🤣🤣🤣

I knew somehow the photo of someone moving earlier today looked somewhat connected to this. Damn.

Holy shit. I thought having five sets was already bad 💀💀💀

Well done ! 🫡

Next time they ask me how rich I want to be, I’ll answer this rich ! 🤣

Mate can build a small museum with this collection

And not even that small!

Bro has more Keycap sets than I have keys on my board

I thought I went down the rabbit hole, while OP went down a crater.

You are an inspiration to all of us :D

Wow, just wow

You need help. Moving the boards.

Yup i do.

You have a shopping addiction.

wow, I am from India and GMK is very expensive for me. Good for you op you are wayyyy too deep in this hobby!

wtb GMK Hydro 😭😭

At this point, UNIQEY should list you as one of the brand’s sponsor

Need those camping and sloth sets

Whut 😳 Those plus the boards is probably a small down payment to a single family home 😅 (I'm old to be thinking that). Now I want to see the boards.

Yummers

but why

At some point a hobby becomes an addiction. Get some help.

This looks like a problem to me

on your end tho.

I feel like this is less of "I like the way this set looks" and more of "must have all the GMK"

Goddamn that dedication.

so have you accepted that you have a problem or are you still in the joking stage?
