A men who bought over 4duckies in 3 months complain bout race expensive? That doesn't made any sense what?
Btw, it come with milk switch and pbt, hence the price tag still within reasonable range IMO.

Vintage keyboard and pc, yes. But mouse I don't think so. Ball mouse...

Or more precisely,

Technology, the newer the better.
Craftsmanship and quality, mostly the vintage one did better.

u actually calculated that.

Well its expensive to me because i saw it was selling locally between RM200-RM250, and reason of getting one of this is because it is backlit, so the PBT one are non backlit, means no go

Trackballs are i guess.

I recall that Kai's race are selling at close to zero or negative profit price, hence it is cheap. Even the vortex pbt he used to offer are much more pricy in Taobao.

Backlit, you can always DIY what? Especially for those BL ready boards.

Btw, it also isn't strange for EOLed stuff to undergoes some price jacking (actually the 750 is not a jacked price yet), take a look at poker1.

Luckily, Logitech still making ok quality trackball.

Anyone ordered the original Cherry key caps from EliteKeyboards?
I got my self red (WASD, Arrow, Esc and Enter)

Yea, Kai's was definitely the cheapest.

To me poker 1 is good due to the secondary layer of arrow keys are at the bottom right part, whereas the poker 2 arrow keys are on WASD, but im getting used to that now after 2 weeks of daily use

Pictures are the mandatory requirements bro post us some pics!!

People saying vintage blue is mushy hmm...

Edited, using phone, hence didn't see well...

I guess it is because most vintage blue board are not well preserved, not to mention that blue switch degrade faster than other switches. And even some dust can affect the click.

Still remember 1stly, black are rated 50mil while blue are 20mil. But I think nowadays for the sake of convenient or marketing, they simply put 50mil for all switches.

So I suppose that is no good since it is suppose to be clicky?

Don't buy those mouse with so many gimmicks la. Like those mouse with cherry mx on the side...

kyrmian I'll let you know today

Human10 nah, I'm not a GHacker. I was just lurking there. Not very interested in getting from taobao.
I agree wholeheartedly!


lowyatguy go for the camo huh? The only reason I'm not rushing to get it is because of the color scheme. Also, the Oni's keycaps look quite good. However, Vortex has had a lot of unhappy customers over at GH so I'm also weary about that.

Vortex has a lot of unhappy customers due to the poor qc in first gen products. Ducky shine was as bad, so was rk9000.

You can read up on the vortex oni. Totally different perception altogether. Generally speaking all the newer gen vortex products are much better than before. If they were really bad we won't touch them.

i had a ducky first gen backlit, went all well for a year or so, until i recently sold it to another person who is new to the mkb genre

Im still using my razer copperhead next will be steelseries.

OT abit, anyone here old enough to know what is ICEMAT? Oh man, those old time.

Look what is has "evolved" into now www.icemat.com

Filco Camo is not bad at all if u really look for camo design this is the one and the only to get. About the color scheme, any dark color keycaps will match it flawlessly I guess.

Why not from Taobao? Worry about the sellers?

I though you said you came from GH?

Reason for getting filco camo is that it is the best bang for bucks and featured keyboards filco ever offer.

You get braided cable, camo dyed case and media keys which non other filco get

yeah. Plus, if it breaks, I can claim warranty from you right?
I'm going to buy a full custom PC from you in a few weeks. Can I get a discount for the Oni?

I'm not up to the hassle. Warranty issues is another thing.

oh what I was trying to say is that I was reading through the forums over at GH before reading the posts on this thread. I was looking for reviews and general mkb knowledge.

Found this review of the Oni. Just putting this here in case someone else is interested http://tech.hexun.com/2012-08-26/145144477.html
It's in chinese though.

We only sell at SRP, our dealers also. We don't want to undercut our dealers and don't want them to lose trust in us. You can get from us for convenience sake but you are recommended to support our dealers

Understandable.

Here's an update guys, going for kyrmian's camo
Now hunting for keycaps wohooo! Dolch set is really beautiful on the camo

Good decision made, good for both u and kyrmian

This is more beautiful I would say.
