- Along with Gabriele, Mario is one of the two sales reps at GMK that handles the majority of the communication with all keycap vendors. Mario takes care of the vendors during the whole project from quotation to delivery (prices, feasibility, approvals, invoices, payments etc.) and aims to make the processes as easy as possible for the vendors. He also manages GMK's social media + the GMK merch for meetups.

시청해 주셔서 감사합니다! (´｡• ᵕ •｡`) ♡ - Наука та технологія
I appreciate his understanding that we are picky because we are investing in expensive keycaps.
plus we're asking nothing crazy. Simply give us back R1 quality. Period. 2024 and we're trying to achieve something of 2020. Kinda paradoxical to me.
Unlike most sales guys, Mario really knows his stuff. Anyone who’s talked him at a meetup can tell you he’ll happily talk in detail about plastic blends, engineering process optimization, etc.
Completely agree! And it was fun hanging at the NK meetup last year!
I love Taeha's videos, really helped with easing into the hobby and I even built my first custom board this weekend. Thank you Taeha
Thank you for the support!
I met Mario at the Seoul Mechanical Keyboard Expo and it's great to see him in the video again😃😃 그리고 이 영상 한글 자막이 너무 완벽해서 놀랐어요. 이제 태하님 영상을 모두 이해하면서 볼 수 있게 되었어요.😭감동
오 안녕하세요
Always great to see a Taeha video - cheers for the great content!
Thank you for watching 🥰
This is awesome exclusive content! Love hearing first hand accounts from people in the industry and getting to 'peak behind the curtain'.
Also Taeha, your vids gave me the confidence to begin improving and modding my own mkb's, much thanks for the quality content.
Mario is such a cool guy, I got one of those caps from him 😊
He's been awesome to get to know!
Interesting video indeed
I need more of these. Keeb Jesus taking us to the keycap gods house to see how the goods are made has definitely given me more appreciation for what we can do in this hobby.
This is the 3rd of GMK interviews in case you havent seen the first 2!
Is this even a question? Yes.
🤣
한국자막지원이라니!
키붕이 번역에서 빵터졌습니다ㅎ 항상 좋은 영상 감사합니다 :)
오 안녕하세요!
키붕이 모에요?
@@TaehaTypes ~붕이는 특정 커뮤니티사람을 지칭하는 단어로 시작이 되었는데,
앞에 키보드의 '키'를 붙이면서 키보드에 빠진 유저 혹은 키보드를 취미로 가진 유저를 표현하는 용어 정도로 생각하시면 됩니다 :)
아ㅏㅏ 알려줘서 감사합니다. 한국 다너들은 완전 틀리네요
@@TaehaTypes 한국어와 한글은 의태어 의성어가 많은 특징에서 보여지듯이 발음의 특징 글자의 느낌이 중요한 것 같아요. 한국어를 어느정도 할줄 아시니까 단어보다는 느낌을 익혀보시면 또 다른 느낌이실 거예요. 항상 좋은 영상 만들어주셔서 고마와용.
I appreciate my gmk sets WAY more since these videos.
ALSO holy crap I had no Idea that my redacted set could morph like that? Lol wtf.
Yup! The redacted portions of the keycap will wear off over time with use to reveal the actual letter underneath :)
This is so interesting 😊
안녕하세요

I don't see how anyone can look at GMK's catalog and think GMK doesn't care about keeb community lol...
Interesting how their trays all look nice and high quality in their factory floor but arrive in our hands like they dug them out from an archeological site. My first ever GMK set I bought in the recent black friday sale had the twisted stem problem on 1.5u bottom row so I'm not sure about buying GMK again though...
good, don't! leave more for us.
@@foggytypeslol if they can get their QC back in order, I don't too much problem with GMK
Like seeing behind the scenes even though I don't really use GMK anymore. Ceramic keycaps are the only way I go now for my main board. Got GMK on backups/office keyboard. My favourite ones are GMK Night Runner and Toxic, got both of them
Why do you like ceramic keycaps?
@@redhouscv2792 they don't wear out, if you like the look of glossy keycaps they can't be beat. They sound like marbles or dice when being typed. I love the weight of them with mode 65 makes my keyboard nearly 10lbs. Only downside is colour options, they can break easier but when I've had a stem break on my U key they replaced it free of charge which GMK wouldn't/couldn't due to the nature of how they make sets
The company I got them from is called Cerakey
I have some but I would not say they are revolutionary @@redhouscv2792
A flat GMK spacebar would be amazing. I've got 4 different sets, all spacebars are warped.
10:44 GMK Star in a glass case: We will never make an uglier set than this!
Keyboard people are basically the most pedantic people possible
🤣
Don't ever talk to an audiophile or car enthusiast. Any 'collecting nice things' hobby is full of insane people like this
Love how it took two years to get this interview done very on brand
0:07 I think I can trust her more than GMK's "custom sorting machine"
The audacity
What the question really should be: Are GMK prices too high?
(the answer is obvious)
the answer is indeed obvious: no. you're just not able or willing to spend money on a luxury product, and that's fine. but there is no reason for them to depreciate said luxury items just because some people are not in the market for them.
GMK is irrelevant in current year
Figures he's more of a coordinator/manager than a salesman. GMK sells itself by the vendors they work with doing all the heavy lifting of advertising for them. Not sure why gmk even thinks they need salesmen the company is infamously silent always hiding behind the vendors they work with.
I remember emailing gmk when I bought my first set and I was experiencing delay after delay and wondered, are they just lying? Will gmk back up their claims or is something going on and this guy just pocketed our money? So I emailed them and they told me not to email them and to only contact the vendor I bought directly from. So them pretending to want to be more transparent and interactive with the community comes off like a bad joke in my eyes.
this is not how it works. you're not their customer, you're the end user. they communicate with vendors and vendors relay the info to you. you've been told exactly how it works.
@@foggytypes That's fine if they want to work like that, but acting like they want to communicate more with the customers just isn't true when they operate like this. They will always be a shadowy organization with no communication and all their marketing is done through vendors not from themselves
I don't see the hype behind GMK. They're ABS, not PBT. And for the price they are..I EXPECT PBT keycaps. I'll stick with 1:1 clones that are not only cheaper, but also PBT :)
Say what u will abs will always have superior sound and colours. Only thing pbt is good at is shine resistance but even then it still will shine eventually and the texture of shined pbt is frankly disgusting.
@@Seeeaaan Be that as it may, there are no keycaps PERIOD worth over $100. GMK has lost their damn minds and the only people buying them are chumps who just enjoy throwing money away
@@Heartkiller1991But muh ceramics.
Smh 😅 i guess you havent tried one yet
@@j___7052 I have the GMK Pulse along with the knock off versions of it as well. The knock offs are better than the genuine GMK
Oh.... sales reps at GMK, huh? Are those the people that approve unoriginal, boring designs again and again to add to their backlog of keycaps to manufacture?
no, they're not and there no longer is any backlog. look up how it works.
How about you stop making cheap packagings??
Lol picky ??? Nah, not keyboard enthusiasts, its not like they pay hundreds to have keyboards that sound, feel, act in a certain way.
HELL YEAH
Love these dude!
