We are now waiting for Imav to sort out all those keys and ship them individually !!! thats gonna be insane o.O;

Anyway in total thats a few thousand dollars worth of keycaps. Huge MO for keycaps biggrin.gif Most of it is custom made double shot key caps. Some of them are blanks, and also see through, and many other varieties nod.gif

With budget of RM500 you can get literally all brands/choices of cherry brown available. drool.gif

If you feel want to save the hassle to import or incase of defects and need for warranty claim, just go for FILCO that's available locally(do note that it is quite lots cheaper in Taiwan like PChome, Inpad). The local one don't even having NKRO(which is even cheaper in foreign country), though NKRO isn't really a big fuss...

If you want to give other brand a try, you can go for Ducky, Das or even Zowie. They offer more features over normal keyboards or Filco.

the cheaper you mean is the price originally in taiwan or after including all the import fee(or whatever hidden fee)?

if its the first one then can you tell me those import fee normally cost how much?

thanks for your help

Nice, haven't been able to see a decent shot of the paintwork so far.
Maybe you should take some pictures of it - is it quality paintwork or what?

If from Taiwan, if want full set of keys(104 keys) then PChome may have some options that specialized for Ducky board.

Apart from PChome, i not sure if other website do ship internationally...

Here is the Filco keycaps set from Armygroup but according to Storm88, armygroup's stocks availability isn't consistent.

All Majestouch-2 comes with PS2-NKRO and USB 6-KRO, no ?

After including shipping, FILCO Majestouch NKR (lets called them V1) from Taiwan are already comparable to how much they sell locally, unless you want to get the versions that they don't sell locally, such as the the blue/red, mini, or Red Tenkeyless. Even considering from taobao, the savings you get is not much, and the trade off is, you get your stuff fast, with warranty, and it's the 2nd version. I know there's no feel difference from the V1, but still, there's the placebo effect of getting new version, fast, with warranty.

Congrats to Edifier and co. for pricing it much fairly instead of the ridiculous pricing you get previously. Local prices for Majestouch-2, Filco Red 104 are even cheaper than the ones at taobao or Taiwan for that matter.

EDIT: Majestouch-2 MX Blues Tenkeyless going for $140 at Amazon. How much Czone charge again?

Yes korean
Can just buy from Leopold korea website and ship it, don't even need to forward via your wife's sister.
I shipped a keyboard to Korea once, it was RM60 via Air Parcel Method. I'm thinking the reverse is about the same

I think the price will be a tad high. I don't read Korean, care to tell us how much from Leopold.co.kr for the keyboard + shipping?

I not sure but base on my opinion(guess), Leopold seems to be like a tech shop/company in a similar form like KBC. They (may be thru OEM) manufacture goods under their name and they can also sell other stuffs.

Also, do note that any fullsize Mech(cherry) KB can easily reach 2kg worth of postage... sweat.gif

lol...its actually good stuff for inter asia to bring in filco to malaysia. thumbs up to them. d intro price usual will higher n reduce bit by bit to entice people to buy. its marketin strategy. n also it comes wit local warranty which is super good thing biggrin.gif

You should wait for Cyclone's Leopold pricing and compare before you buy, then you'll know.
Some other stuff are worth the trouble getting from the Leopold website, such as the Realforce 87U, that thing is damn rare

That's a real beauty, kEazYc. Might I ask, are the keycaps ABT or PBS? I'm still unsure of how the two materials differ in terms of feel and texture. I myself have just order 2 sets of blank PBT whites and reds that should be arriving some time this week.
