On top of that. They had some serious(as much as 30-40% price cut for keyboard) sale from time to time.

What you mean?

Wao, didn't expect him to use postage instead of COD.

Owai, you from Kuching? Somemore this far...

Infact, they do had different meaning.

The original term "ghosting" means that prevention of random keys popping out(without being pressed) when some random combinations being pressed.

The erm "X"KRO on the other hand indicate how many keys can be pressed(and registered) at same time.

Ghosting may still occur with a high "KRO"(rare case).

Though, ghosting is rare to occur even in those cheap keyboard, even more rare in most-branded mech kb.

Yup, and it existed even far b4 it's brother/clone(namely WASD, Mionix Zibal 60 and Ozone Strike). Since they had the same appearance and probably from the same "mother", their quality should be about the same, which is quite decent. The cheapest among them should be Ozone Strike(only available from Taiwan store from what I saw so far), around RM 270 b4 ship(the only different should be lack of wrist rest(can be get from WASD though, LOL) like TT Meka G1 got).

Yup, those prices are indeed insane + ultimate form of ripoff, almost 2x the price of what it being sold at Taiwan(armygroup and inpad).
For the 90% TT Meka, I doubt if it is from Costar OEM too as it's lookalike/clone(IRock 6230) is made in China, details can go the below link to check out(in Chinese though):
Compilation of most known Mech KB and their OEM/Manufacturers

Cheap or not, it is subjective to your own budget/thickness of your wallet

Though IMO, it should be quite worth it. The price of it(ducky shine) in Taiwan/China also around the price, somemore even no info on the free wrist rest yet so far.

Added on February 17, 2012, 12:10 pmI guess it is still the same BWU with some print-job on its casing, thats all....
This isn't the first repainted BWU already(DA2, Battlefield)

---

Added on February 17, 2012, 12:12 pmThough, one thing need to be note. Local distributor normally priced those rebranded razer stuff(such as Dragon Age 2) much pricier than normal version.

---

Added on February 17, 2012, 12:17 pmLOL you are too skeptical...

The seller claimed that the keyboard is a gift from some contest in Singapore last time, thus it probably won't had any record with local distributor.

Also, the organizer also had rebranded it(printing those "AVA" prints) it and thus even more not necessarily for it to come with all of it's content. AFAIK, it is quite normal for organizer to print their prizes and doesn't give exactly the whole content.

The keyboard also arrived quite new or even unused. It is not likely for the owner for not using it completely, except it hold no uses for him and he planned to sell it.

Last but not the least, not much people in Malaysia actually know the value of "a black and plain-looking mechanical keyboard"...

I put my bet that this isn't a stolen stuff.

BTW, do you really live at Kuching(right now)?

Hold much does the poslaju cost to ship it(safely)?

This post has been edited by Human10: Feb 17 2012, 12:27 PM

The organiser probably repacked the keyboard and directly put the keyboard inside the bag. It looks strange to give both bags(with keyboard inside) and also the empty boxes.

Of course the higher the offer, the happier the seller...
Also, it should count in the shipping price too.

I also know the case of those stolen stuffs(my frens' relative had a phone shop). Those ppl which are despo at low price + never come back after long time = >99.99% stolen stuffs

LOL at the last part, MASTER TROLL

Thx. So it isn't really too expensive to ship a mechanical keyboard across the sea, haha...

All ducky G2 board is USB + ps/2 NKRO(mean all keys, not 6/7 as you heard/thought).
Non G2 model(including ducky shine) is USB 6KRO and ps/2 NKRO.

I guess you can't get them from local as it is from different distributor.

You should probably ask the your seller if any details.

---

Added on February 17, 2012, 8:36 pmNope, the length is standard like most modern board. Though, the stem inside is having different spacing, thus mean normal aftermart spacebar can't fit in without some modification.

Also, the spacebar probably can't fit your Leopold too.

---

Added on February 17, 2012, 8:39 pmYup, the following keys won't fit in:
"|\", "Enter", "Right Shift" and "Spacebar"

This post has been edited by Human10: Feb 17 2012, 08:39 PM

I don't really get what you mean.

Actually, what I want to say is that there are mainly 2 types(of course there are many other variations but less popular or even encountered, thus I don't mention them to prevent further confusion). Both types(spacebar) I gonna mention are having similar length as what you normal see on Steelseries 7G/6GV2, Filco and Ducky, which had a length of 6.25X modifier.

The one you found on FILCO, Ducky, the translucent KBC keycap posted above and other KBC keycap(ABS & PBT) are having same standard and position of the "X" stems, thus making them interchangeable.

Another standard is what you found on Leopold, Steelseries, Keycool and some other China branded board, the position of "X" stems are nearer to the center, thus making the type above can't fit in.

---

Added on February 18, 2012, 12:08 amThe current discussion is that Ducky Shine is going to come with it's own wrist rest(heard is SS7G alike, not sure how alike though...). Just that it haven arrive and no people had any pictures/details of it yet.

This post has been edited by Human10: Feb 18 2012, 12:08 AM

1. Blank(mean nothing is printed), AKA otaku by FILCO's context
2. Side printed, AKA ninja by FILCO's context
3. Probably mean dyed/colored keycaps. Thats a way to achieve the "rainbow" keycaps you often found in taobao(I guess lots Chinese in China having rainbow fetish, LOL...)
4. Black print on black or white print on white. You can see it from global.PChome ducky's keycaps.
5. This one not sure, probably engraved and infilled, not really sure as it's meaning is quite wide. After see the pictures given, I guess it is lasered.

If it isn't this type:

then I guess it will be 4.同刻 or 5.有刻

The Cherry G80-3800 seems closer to market already.
http://www.waishehome.cn/thread-44125-1-1.html

Preorder already start in Taobao.
here are some more details of it:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=15566596109

I will wait for some review first. This may be my first Cherry-branded keyboard. (though it don't really count as this time it is made in china, by China OEM somemore)...

Lets wait and see how much quality being compromised to achieve such a low price.


This post has been edited by Human10: Feb 18 2012, 09:02 PM

Interested but probably don't dare/want to be white rat and get first batch of it, LOL...

Will wait for some review of it first.

Saw it around back then January in China forum by those Chinese which live or had access to US's market. It is now quite widely available from Taobao.

It is another keyboard by iOne, but so far the review/built(from pictures) seems good. Though, I still don't hold full hope on it as almost all iOne keyboard(yar include razer BW...) failed big time b4.

But one interasting point to be note is that there is even a aluminium casing version of the keyboard, not sure when will be launched though. If it really being launched, it should be the first commercialized mechanical keyboard with aluminium casing(on default).

---

Added on February 19, 2012, 12:37 amlol, partially agree with it but I still think better wait for more details first.

It isn't actually the problem with RM200+/- but a Cherry branded keyboard at that price is really too fishy... May be I am too skeptical...

This post has been edited by Human10: Feb 19 2012, 12:38 AM

Opps, my bad. But can't put all the blame on me. It is because Corsair Vengeance is of a mix of rubber dome and mechanical switch, which made me never take it as a mech kb seriously... Somemore, it don't really don't had an "aluminium casing" because it don't had a casing, TROLOLOL... It should be called aluminium back-plate instead.

Added on February 19, 2012, 6:12 pmUsing google image search, the best guess is:
vomitando arco íris

BTW, nice keycaps indeed. It is a little rare + hard to find compatible Enter for 7G. Just that I am not really having rainbow fetish, LOL...

---

Added on February 19, 2012, 6:17 pmLOL I think you quoted the wrong person.

BTW, AFAI had seen, only Red BL version of it(Tesoro). May be you should go their official website to check out if any other color variant.
SomeChina modder modded the LED of his BWU and Tesoro into RAINBOW Color(and even putting color-changing LED too, insane).

Yup, it will do, especially ABS keycaps got worn even easier.

BTW, this video make me shyt brick.

Not sure how much will PBT more resistant to worn. AFAI heard, POM is hard enough and the stem of switch itself is make by POM too. That should mean the least worn on keycaps(but highly worn the stem, LOL...).

Or if you are still worry, you can do it the metal keycaps way - putting a small piece of cellophane tape on the stem first then only put the keycaps on.

On nyancat part, seems like Clyclone and Squarebox made the order. Either way, it is now too late if you are "interested" in it.

Not sure, I only tried it out on metal key to prevent friction/worn. For those loose ABS, isn't it better to be more tight?

My type is among the cheapest one you can found in Taobao(priced at 10RMB each, full set 37 keys for around 280RMB). It looks ugly and the finish/painting isn't anywhere impressive. Surprisingly though, the texture and the touch feel is very nice.
