Well, can ask friend help to import they are having a trip to SG  .

Btw, the shops that have Filco KB is SIM LIM SQUARE right? any senior know which shops have them? I can't remember which floor, but i think is 5th. Lazy trace back older threads  .

CM Quickfire Rapid? RM269-299. HeavyArm, lingloong, IdealTech, etc.

wow...i've been browsing taobao the whole day @.@

QFR lah bro

Cm qfr first choice.

QFR = standard layout
TK = non-standard

standard keycaps...nuff said.

bro, any non-standard layout is a deal breaker for me, i won't dig out more about that keyboard

if you can't find QFR, there's always keycool 87 it's standard layout and it's pbt keycaps
reddish or greenish? u going for Christmas theme?

for keycaps, usually we get from taobao

i can link u the keycool link but not pbt keycaps...i've been browsing taobao the whole day liao but if u search for kbc pbt or pbt keycaps, you should be able to browse for the keycaps u want.

link for keycool 87

if u dun mind keycool 87 blue switch, u can check out my signature below
cheaper price, quite new, no need wait shipping from oversea, no agent

Normally bundled with PBT keycaps around 400-500 RM locally. PBTs are worth that much more.

Go get the QFR, it is better choice.

Irerferno ordered taihao keycaps and able to fit most of the keys.
except spacebar

i found a better deal for CM QFR Red at RM265 while for other switches Its QFR is Rm239 only

go budget lah...get 2nd hand keycool and whatever amount of money u save, use that to buy keycaps

A rebranded chinaboards, overpriced, nuff said.

It's a lot closer to 1 kg, not sure where rumours started about it being light.....The TK has a steel plate and the weight, plus rubber feet means it hasn't moved around accidentally in all the time that I use it.

As for why I bought TK:
1. backlit
2. numpad
3. TKL size

Unless you enter into custom keyboard league - those combinations above are unbeatable.

Major negatives:
1. one of the LEDs broke - wouldn't light up anymore
2. non-standard layout.....you do get jealous looking at all the guys here with their keycaps.
3. ABS keycaps. My spacebar is shining dy. Have to ignore forever - coz of no (2)

Neutral:
The key legends..some people love it....some would rather die than be seen with it. I fall into the don't care camp - I don't look at the keys when I type. The backlight only helps when I need to hunt for keys during gaming.

Wow...you're too late dy - justnits was letting go of his KeyCool just few days ago.

Now - it's your money, so final decision is always your. QF TK is backlit - if backlit is a MUST, it is not a bad buy. I'm probably just unlucky with QC issue for my unit. Now - if you're buying this keyboard as a one time deal and you're not going to get into MKB hobby at all - by all means, QF TK is fine. I heard the keycaps are also slightly higher quality than QFR, but I cannot confirm this (don't have QFR). It's definitely far better than any Razer BW out there.....Slightly better keycaps also means it should last slightly longer than QFR.

The super big advantage of QFR though - is that it is standard layout. If you enjoy the rush of mechanical keyboards, by all means QFR (or Stealth) is the better buy.
