It seems only enthusiasts will buy IMSTO and higher tiers keycaps instead of casual users.

Guess, casual users don't have enough data to justify value of IMSTO which the pricing ~ same like a Filco keyboard (RM 369) price.

Example of IMSTO keycaps set: IMSTO's blank gray thick pbt.

To feed some extra info..

Cherry Keyboard + Cherry keycaps => RM800++.
Casual users, like to buy keyboard (pants) but don't buy keycaps (clothes).  brows.gif
They will realise, a true mkb, consists of clothes and pants. Which is quite high cost.

The cost is kind of similar of getting a master race Topre (clothes + pants) tho. laugh.gif

Then they will realize the importance of having nice underwear (springs), and then start buying silk underwear (lubed springs), before realizing that the pursuit of perfection is merely a pursuit without end.

If i'm not mistaken this is not compatible with cherry mx. Only the cherry mx top housing by gateron is compatible with cherry switch.

don't get the gateron blue switch imo
the tactile the clicky sound so much inconsistent between them.
get linear or brown, good reputation among gateron group discussion icon_idea.gif

Filco Majestouch-2 TKL
Filco Ninja Majestouch-2 TKL

But, they're over your budget a little I guess.

For RM 400, it's really hard to find white case TKL mechanical keyboard because they're either limited edition or very expensive brands.

Best solution is buy a cheap Black mechanical keyboard(RM 200+-), have it spray to White.

There's a lot SILVER colored mechanical keyboards which are within your range of budget.
Example:
Ducky Legend
Corsair K70

oh yeah just to add to this i've been reading really good stuff about gateron linear switches as well but not so much of their tactile switches. some people claim is the different material they just makes the linear switches less scratchy compared to cherry. comparable to vintage blacks according to what some people claim but i've not tried one.
