The auction is live. A paid deposit holds the key for review. Vinyl is printed only if you still hold that key when the clock ends.
Mostly by muscle memory. The logo sits on the cap; a small original symbol stays in the bottom-right (⌘, ⌥, and the other named keys keep the icon only, not the word). Return and the arrows are left stock. Backlight on a branded key is still blocked.
A square icon for letter keys and the palm rests — we pull that from your site. Wide keys (spacebar, tab, both shifts, delete, caps) need a horizontal lockup: mark and name on one line, PNG or JPEG, transparent if you can. No exact pixel size.
20% of your bid now, or $10 if 20% would be less, in USD. Refunded if you’re outbid, refused, or the charge is reversed. Brand several keys with one form and one checkout — you still pay that deposit per key. The thank-you page is not confirmation — the payment webhook is. Marks stay off the keyboard until I approve them. If you still hold the key when the clock ends, you pay the rest of the bid by a second checkout. Vinyl is printed only if you win.
Almost. I approve every mark by hand. It travels with me. Refused bids get the deposit back.
