I'm definitely interested if the price is interesting! How much do you think the price can go down if it is brought directly to Malaysia? I think got around RM80?

This is Ducky keyboards website
http://www.duckychannel.com.tw


They have a contact page. If you email them you can ask about opening a Malaysian MO like they did for Singapore, and how much we can get for a Malaysian bulk. I think they require a minimum of 10 people in order to proceed with any import orders. If you joined the SG bulk, you have to pay for unnecessary overheads like extra shipment and paypal transaction fees.

For a Malaysian bulk, no transfer fee assuming people all have maybank accounts. Also probably no shipping cost if there is a consensus for collection points set up e.g. the curve maybe ? Or someone closer to an LRT.

So if the Singaporeans are already paying 165 SGD shipping already included, it's safe to assume it would be the same price for a direct Malaysian bulk since the distance from Taiwan is roughly the same.

165.00 SGD = 396.405 MYR

I've already ordered mine, so i don't really need to do this myself smile.gif

Problem with rubber dome, sometimes you have issue, that you press one key, another key is registered instead.

You don't have this problem with mechanical because each key has it's own switch.

Some good mechanical keyboards also have gold cross points. Also remember with the many different switches, you got good ones for gaming such as black which is linear, or if you want much lighter there is red. I honestly doubt rubber dome can compare to it in terms of reaction time, low resistance, and accuracy doh.gif

Anyway here a video of O2Jam youtube

However as i always advise people, judge the kb by the kb itself, not its packaging. Although i do admit, that Filco packaging is damn sweet wub.gif

Filco keyboard boxes are less attractive compare to logitech or microsoft.
But the protection of the box is not bad.

but put it next to the ducky, it's really alot better sweat.gif

Well the Sg people are getting 10 SGD deducted from the 165 SGD price if they already bought a Ducky from the SG Bulk.

I suspect for 100 orders of Ducky kbs they may give more discount. But that would be a very big mo to organize. I doubt you can convince 100 people to order a Ducky. Compared to SG enthusiast site, we don't have enough Malaysians who appreciate the quality or need to buy one hmm.gif


@storm88

I'm curious to find out how much Filco will charge per Filco Majestouch keyboards for a Malaysian MO. Not that i will get one because i already ordered a Ducky, but i am curious to know hmm.gif

Filco and Ducky can't go wrong with either of them. Even the Steelseries mechanical keyboards are nice if you don't mind black cherry switches (i'd think professional gamer prefer those switches anyway).

Price is going to be important though to decide hmm.gif

Rm320 for a Filco Majestouch NKRO is just epic drool.gif

@storm88

Are you asking for the Filco Majestouch with NKRO or No NKRO ? They have 2 variants, one with, and one without. Also they have a choice of 3 switches, black, blue and brown.

Actually some people love the cherry blue switch. But yea I agree about the noise, either you love it or hate it.
I haven't heard of cherry green though.

It means Moogle was brought back to reality. Because in reality, RM 320 for NKRO Filco is impossible. I prefer Filco NKRO sad.gif

Maybe the non NKRO is 6KRO but i cannot confirm this because i never researched it that much. O2jam uses 7 keys, so 6kro might not cut it doh.gif

not very noisy la
mx blue is tactile clicky key
it got bit feel like rubber dome and very heavy touch and tactile
compare to you mx black which is totally no click
if you like 7g then definitely won go for mx blue

but personally think mx brown is quite ideal and compromise for typist and gamer

Im surprised to hear that some keyboards can't play O2 jam. My previous Samsung RM 20 keyboard played O2 jam with no problem.
I though most keyboards have their sdfjkl and spacebar wired different so no issues there.

Actually I dislike playing O2jam on a mechanical, the sound of the keyboard gets too loud when Im spamming keys =P

last time when i decide whether get 7g or 6gv2 the only criteria i consider is the palm rest
the usb and audio jack not really important for me since i got my extension wire of those port also

so at last i realize i will to spend extra 130 just for 7g's palm rest
the filco palm rest i made of leather if i not mistaken
so 150 for that rest is much more worth than for 7g palm rest

mechanical kb ofcos no prob

but after you get use for it then shud be ok

the most cheapo keyboard if not mistaken is 3~4 kro. i ever encounter in some songs which need to press more than 3 keys at a same time caused me miss in the game... sweat.gif

The filco armrest made by Cow leather. Anyhow RM150 is just an estimation. all info provided here is not Confirmed, as the deal not yet on.

btw, managed to source some info regarding green switch or called green axis switch.
