Except for a guy who currently in China, all others bought through agent. The exchange rate and shipping rate are quite reasonable. In fact a lot of things even you import from taobao + international shipping, still can cheaper than our local retail price.

i buy thru agent, although they will charge a little with slightly lower rate. But good thing they do everything and u just need to pay and wait  unsure.gif ?
If buying self u still need to get china address, unless the seller ship internationally ?

QUOTE(justnits @ Dec 14 2013, 10:30 AM)
buying through agent is less hassle.

Just curious.. and for me to get ready to buy from there..
will buy the new mkb, keycool 87 or 104, with:

white body,
white keycaps,
brown/blue/red switch..

maybe i'll ask some questions regarding that later, becoz me can't read chinese.. smile.gif

like i said before, use Google Chrome and when u go to taobao page, it will prompt u with a question asking if u want to translate the page into English.
and then u click always translate Chinese (Simplified Hans) and then the whole taobao becomes readable to u.

yeah, tried last and i became quite weird, like "tea, shaft" and stuff.. hehe biggrin.gif

Both 84, 87 and 108 version of keycool got white case, but only for non-backlit version. Their backlit version only got black case.

they also got 104 one?

104 also got,

But I must be honest to you that I hadn't heard much about this 104 before, so I can't comment much about it's quality. The 87 is still a safer (and a tad cheaper) bet.

Here is an image uploaded by a buyer,

so maybe, the quality for 87 and 104 not the same?

60% stands for 60% layout.
i.e Vortex Poker 2

Have 61 keys instead of 104 (fullsize 100%).
Do the math, then you can know this is ~60%.

kastam(m'sia rojak language) is stands for custom mkb.
You get your prefer plate, board, case, switches and make the keyboard you want.
example.

Kastam can be defined as custom case, or everything custom.
