Because I'm not there to create fiasco

For durability of printing, it's always doubleshot>Dye-sub->Laser-etched->padprinted or something like that. I draw the line at dye-sub, and that printing doesn't really look like dye-sub. I might be wrong, though because I can't read chinese.

Also, for most keycaps, the best are always those that are really thick. From what I understand, it's BSP/GMK > Imsto/SP > Vortex.

Sifu correct me if I say wrong thing again.

pro
- quality look
- bright color
- pbt
- have legend or non-legend to choose from

con
- a little pricey

in my opinion, is good buy, you can get colored pbt esc, enter, etc.

I'm not sure about leopold keycaps profile. Heard is taller than cherry but lower than OEM. <-- Need verification for the profile of this taobao item.

was thinking start small before actually spend more on the high end Caps

What kind of keycaps you actually targeting on ?
For example, colored esc? RGB (Ctrl, Alt, Win, Shift)? Keycaps set like thick pbt?
Start from level 1 is good.

Straight away buy god-tier keycaps...

Don't waste time because all also not good enough

Are you really sure normal tiers keycaps not good enough?
It's all about each individual's preferences.

I'll confirm when my imsto arrive. So far, its not good news at all :|

Everything about experience. Start from low is the best, you will still like those normal tiers.

It's like you having the best keyboard, you still will use normal brand keyboard like those ducky, rosewill etc.

I admit that imsto is really good.
Even you have the god tiers keycaps, you still will like your previous normal tiers keycaps.
Because each kind of keycaps give different feel of typing experience.

My preference would go by profile first. Oem tak mau

Totally agree. Kinda miss the stock keycaps of my poker

Let's trade! I have poker stock keycaps, you have gmk olivetti

I endorse this trade

Didn't know there's a Ducky Shine 3 Gold Edition.

Very long time ago got this gold tuhaojin Ducky Shine

Yeah, was looking for RGB , and also WASD / arrow key
Not sure how to search for thick PBT on taobao, on places like imsto is quite pricey thou

Imsto RGB are cherry profile, will not match your Filco stock keycaps. So, total can cost up Rm 400. Imsto keycaps set with his RGB.

Azurika

RGB RMB 139.
