Oh, well, now you would not think my RM50 GdExpress Shipment is pricy now would you?

zzz this is GdExpress courier service, express, WASD keyboard uses standard shipment right?
if you want me to post it to u with standard postage also can,
if you would take the risk, won't be over RM20 I think.

can you please write down what DCS, ABS, PBT, POM, stands for? easy for me to google

Woah..
First you got the type of switches used, then you have the keycaps

first, you heard of mechanical keyboards and you google for it. Then you stumble upon Geekhack and Deskthority, and you to know more. Slowly you start to take part in the community.

Afterwards, you youtube for mechanical keyboards and then the urge of want-to-own comes and you check your bank acc. Testing out a real mechanical keyboard got you poisoned real hard, and you can no more control yourself.

After all those research and consideration, you bought home your very first mech keyboard. That's not the end, you'll look for more keyboards and accessories, key caps, wrist rests, switches, cases, bumbung, rare models etc...

peeps it's official, there is now a MECHANICAL SWITCH mouse ...







The review:

Buying things in taobao doesn't need any group buy. You just go search for the things you want, go find a taobao agent in LYN subforum, then pay your money and you are done.

FYI, the ABS blank keycaps will cost around RM30 and shipping probably took another RM10. It is recommended to purchase other misc. along as you had paid for 1kg worth of postage, while the keycap definitely not even reach 500g.

If you want PBT keycaps, it will require some efforts to search for it though. The price is estimated at around RM120+/- IIRC.

Still more like a gimmick to be than real practical...

Mouse switch are normally less than 1mm travel, while cherry's mx switch's travel is minimum 2mm. Not too practical IMO.

Spoonfeed version incase you need it...

Average of 1week time starting from agent placed the order. Can be faster and later.
Shipping within China normally around 1-2days. Transit to Malaysia around 1-2days. Local courier slacking another 1-2days.

zzz have you not given up on getting from other place than Malaysia?

most of the time I placed order from Cutieangel, seller provide proxy service from Taobao,
just copy the link of the item, paste it on her topic, and question and description of item, color etc, then she will answer you and let you know the pricing very soon, then after you paid her the amount she requested, she will start placing order to the seller in China,

the item(s) usually reach me within 2 weeks, since they place the order for us, and wait the seller to send the item pack in parcel to their collecting center in China, then they will just pack another envelope on the current one, and write your address and send it to you.
for my case of Cutieangel, the item are devided by 1.85, from the price RMB + the shipment in RMB, then charges from China collecting center to Malyasia is RM12 per Kilogram, in which Keyboards are mostly over 1kG with packing, if you do not want the item to damage in the postage, most of the time they mave multiple layers of packing to avoide that. all of my items reach me safely, no damage at all.

just some time the local courier service taking over the item and handle them stupidly, they send to me at the time I m not at home.

They are called KBC engraved black PBT. Made by KBC so it should be cheaper in taobao than GH or any other places.
The price range from around 150RMB+, cause it is PBT, thus much pricier than ABS.

Hmm, for fullset blank black PBT, I can't deny it is indeed a little rare.
But there is easier and nicer(subjective) options out there, blue thick PBT by KBC, check out IMSTO's(in GH) posts for details.

lol, if the spacebar can't fit, sell it to me!
For the spacebar you already have one, and it doesn't matter it fit or not,
because even for the printed one it doesn't have any printing on it.

you like black blank stuffs huh?
have you seen my HHKB with the Black Blank Keycaps on? 

for your keycool key sets, those are not the cheapest, the cheapest one are RMB50.00 I think, its in the keycool official taobao page,
I do not have the link now, my firefox are down and I don't know where is the bookmark stored.

For its spacebar, I m not sure it fit or not, but it is going to fit on Leopold FC500R series,
and most spacebar won't fit on Leopold FC500R,
so I presume that will not fit on CM Quickfire, just presume, not sure about that.

I'm on your boat bro

I was planning to buy a red switch quickfire rapid... but what's stopping me is the branding all over the keyboard.. that's very unprofessional.

Yup, that is the Keycool one I mentioned all this while.

The spacebar stem position is different, thus can't fit. May be you can consider other colors of spacebar? They are available singly in taobao at only 10RMB.

BTW, if you are getting CM Quickfire, get the 87 keys one instead of 104 keys. Because the 87 one having windowed keys for backlit for indicators LED, while 104 one don't, and so most other 104 keys set(including the FILCO one you asked).

Actually, the 50RMB one is the RM30+10 one I stated to you in my previous post...

well, i saw someone in a chinese forum wrapped carbon fiber sticker around the keyboard casing to eliminate the overbranding of CM....  

Here you go, don't regret what you ask for.
[attachmentid=2837526]

I mean the windowed keys, not Windows key. Scroll lock and Caps lock need them.

you can type without seeing the keyboard entirely?   
i can only touch type to a certain level...  
PS: why HHKB Pro2 sooooooo freaking expensive???? Around RM1k each.....
