Hi all, I m interested in the old style keyboard aka mechanical keyboard.. i m planning to get one to reminiscence my childhood days typing on the huge ass noisy keyboard... laugh.gif

I presumed that Keycool is one of the cheapest if not already the cheapest in the market..

Do you how can I get my hands on them? is TaoBao the only way? I cant read chinese.. so I am having difficulty navigating around the "google translated" site...

If you buy it solely for the sake of want a noisy keyboard like in your childhood, I will suggest you to go and dig out if any IBM Model M lying around.

lol.. i wished i could find one of those ancient keyboards.. but unfortunately all of them have been disposed by my parents many years back along with the old desktop... so.. instead of looking for it, i thought of getting one for my daily usage too..

Search for cloud8318 here.
I think his forwarding service also help with finding the item, just give him picture and name or something liddat.

Go search around if there are ppl disposing old IBM model M.

You can also buy and import them from foreign countries (taobao, ebay) but the shipping price will be killing you.
