I think it's better to soak in pure alcohol/spirit instead of water then leave dry for 1-2 weeks. Replacing all the keys might cost u a lot. For example 87*rm2 + rm50 service charge..

Hi just wanna ask, let say i buy keyboard online eg from lazada, how the warranty gonna work? Yeah it come with 1 year local supplier warranty (like Ducky) but from my experience, Ducky didn't deal with end user. They just deal with local retailer in manage the warranty claim. I might be wrong here. Someone can enlighten

Is there an easy way to fix key chatter without de-soldering the switch?
Sometimes I get two O's eventhough I only press the O key once.
Board is an old Razer with MX blue

Another option is Ducky Zero, it should still be within your budget.

Or should i just buy locally eg quickfire tkl? why not check in our garage sale for a used 1? mechanical keyboard rarely has problem (for non-led one. cant really speak for LED backlit ones), so when cod that time test all the keys kaw kaw then you should be fine.

QUOTE(-cmi- @ Oct 31 2015, 07:45 PM) Already ask. I actually already called Heavy Arm, Tech Armory, Dotatech, Ultimate Zone and Czone. All of them doesn't have stock for Shine 4. I heard the supplies is already stop due to Shine 5 availability in next few weeks. But the price point for Shine 5 is way too high  I do think they should keep selling Shine 4 to cover the price gap. Saw the keyboard that i want from Lazada (Shine 4 MX Brown) but not sure if i should put my bet on them. Never deal with Lazada before and not sure how warranty claim work with them as i dont think the seller have any physical shop. Saw one ducky shine 4 at jayacom digital mall ss14 yesterday.
