Hey guys, I am just curious, what is the difference between PBT and ABS keycaps mentioned on mechanical keyboard?

Hey fssbzz,

It doesn't mentioned anything about PBT and ABS in the website... Anyhow, are you the same person as fssbzz in geekhack? Cause I see that you got yourself a Ducky 9008 Mix switches. May I know where does the brown switches starts from? Cause I see some Chinese forum they starts from [F] and ended at ["]? e.g. http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=8164287464


Also did you get it from pchome with $20 US shipping? How fast is the shipping?

Thanks for the picture~! Also.. What do u think of the difference between PBT and ABS. Also would you recommend the mix version or pure version to someone who is looking for brown switches?

Thanks for all the advice.. I think I will get the normal keycaps brown from pchome~ Thanks for clarifying them...

Wohoo~!! Just got my ducky after a disaster with the mail... Long story.... Anyhow its here~! Am loving it... My very first mecha keyboard... My cherry is popped...

I think I really need to relearn how to type properly...

P.S. OP please add me to the list... Ducky 9008 PBT Mixed Cherry

Yea.. I got mine from PCHome... The problem is not from PCHome's side but my own... My housemate dunno I had a parcel coming in and he did not help me accept it... So the package got sent back to Post Office and I had to call in to have them intercept it coz if not the package will be return to the sender... And that would be even worst getting them to send it again to Aussie...

But all in all... Am very happy with my choice...

Shipping was quick.... Have not regret getting it from PCHome and be patient and did not order it from the MO from Sg...

They are from Taiwan.. But I am living in Australia now.. And the Australian Post policy is that if rejected, the items will be sent back to sender after 2 days if the receiver cannot be found... Lucky I called in yesterday and also this morning.. If not... I am sure it will be sent back to Taiwan later... And I will sure

You ordered from PCHome as well? Wat did you order and when did you order?

@xcen,

Patience is a virtue... It will be there any minute now.. But if you are still anxious about it.. you can try tracking it here from Taiwan's post...

I ordered it on the 8th December... The shipping was awesome form PcHome and only cost me $USD10 for it... Its worth it in my opinion especially when compared to the Sg ones......

@xcen and Squarebox,

You are both welcome for the link... Was glad it was of help... I used tat link because Australian side haven't updated their website...

I'd say go for just the keyboard and then custom made your own wristrest like what I did. Please check the picture attached.

It's actually not moving tat much when you are really using it.. Plus its quite soft~!

Thanks for the compliment.. It came to me when i got the keyboard plus I got loads of microfibre clothes laying around.. Got them at a bargain price at the market...
