QUOTE(ricstc @ Feb 25 2012, 03:18 PM)
Is it only me?

I have been calling Tel: +6019-530 2920 which is supposed to be a Leopold distributor but the person picking up is a lady which is a native Sabahan in the state of Sabah Easy Malaysia itself.

The number was also the same in V4 and copied over this V5 here. Why hasnt anyone asked about it except me?

Can anyone comment especially cyclonechuah?

Thanks for pointing this out, i fixed this, it's weird that no one ever pm me and asking about this problem. For Contacting me. SMS is preferable. try contact me thru there.

Leopold is mass produced in China?

Leopold was previously mass produce in Taiwan, but later face some quality issue as well as cost problem. they shifted their manufacture to China, for investing into other stuff such as PBT, POM, Dye Sub, Doubleshot, something like that. Since it's cheaper in China

Archiss Keyboard and Leopold team-up to manufacture FC200, so they share the design of it, and the Manufacturer was Datacomp.(Taiwan Manufacturer)

As for Leopold FC700R, it does not have any thing related to Keycool new 87U.(solo project)

One of the main reasons why Keycool have a completely same PCB board of FC700R and retains the outer casing of FC200.
It is because the new Manufacturer in China has sold/given the blueprint of the PCB board to Keycool.(one of the main reason why Leopold are changing manufacturer last month)

Keycool has already been well known for duplicating Leopold Products, with it's FC200R clone. It's just that, this time they've even successfully stolen a PCB board design that the product hasn't release on Public yet.

Leopold FC700R release date : Feb 2012
Keycool new 87U : October 2011

As i say again, Leopold and Keycool Manufacturer does not shares the same manufacturer, one of the main reasons is because Most Manufacturing Equipment as well as Molding Equipment are under Leopold.

Plus the fact that Keycool has never be able to Manufacture PBT Keycap that Leopold has.

True true, rarity and demand of market.
I think there is more silver coin collector than keyboard collector
and after it come down and down again, the silver has more value than a Keyboard, right?

And if one day after Apocalypse, without energies sources like electricity etc. 
you need silver(can make medicine at least) or keyboard(for?)?  rclxub.gif
*
Actually, Keyboard is considered as a IT product, so 2nd hand value, it does gets lower than the original price.

As a common sense for collectors, they only collect stuff based on their "rarity level", If the item is mass produced. and it's not limited edition, what can you expect for it's value after 10 years?
No offense thou =X

For the keyboard collector, ONLY keyboard collector can see the true value in the items they collect. this applies to coins, stem, map, any other item. All it needs is people to appreciate the item.

If it's from a third person view on looking onto this, i don't think he's going understand all the hefty price tag just because of something that it has history and rare unless he do collect that item.

i know some users who collects graphic card. which i think is weird, and costly, but it's still part of history right? some users may even be interested in them when it's over 10 years, you never know how the future would end up to be.

Plus they doesn't even think about the value after 10 years, which i think it's pretty normal for collectors, since the item they collect are priceless to them, and they does not wish to sell it when they're given a chance, unless they're short of cash.
But collecting item just for the sake of profit? i think property investment, purchasing houses and rent for people would yield better result than just buying some old stuff and wait for 10 years.(in your life, you got how many 10 years????)

Added :
Just a joke below tongue.gif
when apocalypse, Keyboard can be modding materials because of the vast item inside.
1.wire can serve as rope to tie stuff.
2.steel plated have multiple utilities, like cooking food on top of it? cut it line per line to make it as saw?
3.circut can be cutted and stacked and tied with with ropes to even carry other living utilities.

Silver VS Mech Keyboard In Apocalypse Situation? Mech Keyboard Wins. lolololololololol biggrin.gif
