yeah.. the soldering part is hard to do and too risky for myself to do it. I might damage all the other component of the keyboard. I think i will be courier it back for an exchange

Is there any possible courier service that i can trust to deliver this keyboard back to china? i didnt trust skynet tho..

trust is directly proportional to price tag. those who charge superior price tag like fedex and dhl will be more responsible as they care about their reputation more but trust is very subjective

-__- most ppl still find standard courier perfectly fine. the chances of ur item successfully successfully delivered is still very high. dhl fedex those are more like premium service/insurance. u pay to make sure failure is not acceptable.

how much will fedex charge  for such a heavy object

i once DHL-ed a book from china to usa, the courier cost more than the book itself, rm200+

Anybody know where can I get Zowie Celeritas? How much is one?

By asking the local distri or import online.

Sending a parcel that is 2KG to china cost RM62.40 so says the pos malaysia website.
You can insure it at Rm1.50 per Rm100 value of your item, so shipping it back cost about RM70~
Shipping it back via agent is another RM40?

For that price of RM100, minus some for the postage fees to ship the controller to Malaysia, you could probably save some time and money by paying someone else to solder it for you, as another option. But since you insist on sending it back, then get the item insured, and it should be alright, though Pos Malaysia + China Post might end up taking a rather long time

who is the local disti please?

Sometimes by typing "what joo what joo looking for" in the search bar might turns out a lot a lot of present for you.

Or direct to the distri thread.

But it seems they are dropping the distribution, guess your best bet will be importing your self or from the agents.

Since you're targeting the Cherry Brown switches, why don't you opt for the Filco locally instead? Furthermore you could get local warranty as well, so anything goes wrong you can straight away send back to the shop, you don't wan your self to get into the situation like ZainRain facing right?

Unless you wanted the 1x 2x 4x 8x features. :S

Ive read about they dropping the distribution, thats why i asked

I dont know about Filco, what model do u recommend and where can i get from ? Thanks.

I think both Zowie Celeritas and Filco are at the same price, given if you import the Zowie from other country, including the import fee/blabla, but you minus the advantage of the warranty.

So in the end, Filco still the best choice.

Current Filco Majestouch 104 key priced at RM429, and i believe you can ask for better price from that.

Or you might want to wait for Cyclone or was it storm88 to bring it the duckies.

Sorry, what is the duckies?
