QUOTE(dragorc @ Dec 17 2012, 01:52 PM) red switch is indeed the "Cloud of boobs" bro. True story  Ah..ok After some googling, I found this: http://deskthority.net/wiki/Cloud_of_boobs"The phrase "It feels like typing on a cloud of boobs" has been used to describe keyboards that have very light and/or smooth switches. Often, these switches are linear (not tactile).
Examples of switches that have been described as giving rise to this feeling are:
The lightest Topre switches (at 30 cN and 35 cN). Cherry MX Red switches (linear, 45 cN at activation)."

As you guys know, I offered to sell some Cherry red Esc keycaps from Elitekeyboards earlier in the month. The good news is that the keycaps have arrived - check your PM. The bad news is that a small number of the keycaps have a small and faint white mark. These marks do not look like scratches and they do not rub off easily. I did not try to remove these marks for fear of damaging them. Here is an example:  Has anyone else had this issue with their keycaps? (If you can't see the mark, look closer at the front side, about 3 o'clock - not the top surface where the Esc is.) At least none of the keycaps arrived damaged like these, which I gather was from post office stamping:    (Photos courtesy of mickd.)

But what i don like bout ducky is, its using cherry's stabilizer which kinda mushy when press on it, other than that its really a well built kb.

Man you have some eye for detail. I can't really tell if mine has any defects. I bought 2, both look fine to me.

I wanna get a couple keycaps, but I can't access taobao due to heavy language barriers. Any recommendation where I can browse pictures to buy?
