oh ok. my practice is to request the sellers to help check the contents first before sending them to me. usually they really do that imo because so far so good hehe

So sad. KPrepublic told me to contact Tai Hao directly, this is Tai Hao's reply:

I do have spare loose keycaps, but maybe a photo would be easier to determine the font and what's not as I don't seem to see you mention the model of your keyboard.

uh? injection marks? ok i don't know about this.

maybe there are obvious differences between abs and pbt caps from tai-hao. you can check out tai-hao.com for pictures. it really looks like they have those marks on some of their abs sets. i don't find the same on their pbt sets.

Really tempted now to join the GMK Rudy group buy. Ends tomorrow. Buy once, cry once.

But damn, keycaps that costs almost 3 times my keyboard is still hard to swallow.

to experience gmk, you can just get a white on black (wob) set from drop.

until today, the quality of gmk is still unmatched. although recent jtk has improved, they still have issues that make them imperfect in general.

this keyboard key is harder to buy and very hard to find replacement. It's not mechanical keyboard, but it's scissors switch laptop keyboard.

er why? couldn't quite get your points since we are not you.

if you compared it with some branded gaming boards, you should also know why we said they're overpriced hehe

Can clearly hear some spring noise and ping sound when typing, although only few keys had it , search online , many people said it is normal tho.
Not sure about other expensive gaming keyboard, but overall i am quite happy with my first mechanical keyboard purchase.

that's typical for stock switches on most commercial boards. tecware makes some other sound too if you listened closely.

yeah it can be much better for typing if you spent time tuning it.

My interest is growing after watching so many reviews and video about mechanical keyboard, which can be interesting with different kinds of fine tuning and customization.
