Hi guys, anyone looking to sell his/her old mech keyboard? Looking for a brown switch mechkb for work. Budget around RM150+. Just need a plain looking keyboard. Don't wanna be too flashy in office but I just hate membrane kb. Yuck.

Good day, guys.
I'm wondering why Filco is so highly (if not best) regarded compare to other keyboard brands.
Considering their price and features, are they kind of overprice? I've read about how people rave about their build and quality, how different it feels when it compare to other keyboards with the same switch. (I'm definitely not comparing it to Razer here) While there are other similarly or lower priced keyboard brands out there like Ducky and CM Storm. I bet their quality are pretty much similar or maybe Filco is slightly better. However, everyone (yes, ALMOST EVERYONE) seems to prefer Filco. I've also read about the stabilizers where people pick Filco for its costar stabilizers but this cannot be the only reason right? Besides, there are also other keyboard with Costar Stabilizers. Please don't get me wrong, I'm not doubting the reputation nor the the quality or trying to insult Filco or its fan. And, please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm here to ask for opinions not arguments. My apologies if my words are

No sarcasm as well, I'm just curious about how each keyboard brands differs between each other when it comes to typing experience. Now, I'm deciding between Ducky Zero or Rosewill RK-9000 (with brown switch) as my second mechanical keyboard for work. I wonder if I should top up more for a Filco.
I'm currently using a Ducky Shine 3 with blue switch, besides dead LED, I'm kinda happy with it. You know right, after you start using mechanical keyboard, membrane keyboard like... sweat.gif
Have anyone brought their mechanical keyboard to work? I cannot be the only one who think about doing it.

Anyway, I'm open to suggestions and opinions on my purchase. Appreciate if anyone could point me to the right direction and explain why Filco is preferred by so many people out there.
I don't wanna spend too much as it is only for work and I don't need no fancy or gimmicky features. I just need a good keyboard to get me through a busy day.
Thanks in advance.

Good day guys, thank you for all the inputs. May I have your opinions on Filco Majestouch 2 Convertible as well? Have anyone use or bought it here? How's the performance? I'm thinking to sell my Shine 3 for it.

Hi guys. Anyone plan to get the Filco Convertible 2 or already got 1? Looking to sell my Ducky Shine 3 for it. Any kind opinions on this? Yes. I'm anal about cables and cords. Always wanted to keep my desk as clean as possible.

A quick question. I don't know why my Ducky Blue Switch feels a lot stiffer than my friend's Blackwidow which I much prefer, maybe I'm weird?

By the way, would like to thank Mr. Quovadis for his recommendation on Filco. Never been so happy at work with my Ninja Brown. Cheers guys!

Hmm I'm sure those are the Cheery Blue Switch. The black widow is one of those very first edition. Plus, I took the keycaps of, and yes, its blue. Maybe it's the keycaps that does the trick?
