hi guys

just bought my first mechanical keyboard from Wayne yesterday laugh.gif

just need some info

normally where is the best place to buy keycaps?

or its better to just order online? if its online, what are the keywords to search specifically for keycaps only?

as i tried to search online but most results offer a full keyboard with high price sweat.gif

there are plenty of better options, with different configurations (profiles, materials, printing types, etc.) just take your time to browse through first. there must be something better than clone hyperx key caps.

haha well i just casually browse through

seems like they only sell 5 pages worth of keycaps?

but all seemed like plain ones

unless im wrong? hmm.gif

just get them from Taobao, plenty of choices icon_idea.gif personal fav are PBT keycaps from EnjoyPBT. p/s: the keycaps might cost more than your keyboard

well, its a pretty niche hobby

any keywords to type?

so far i only try keywords like mechanical keyboard keycaps LOL

but the results bring me more of a full keyboards than just keycaps alone

yea, they have the same stem, shouldn't be a problem. if your keyboard layout is the standard one, then you can change your keycaps without worrying much about some weird layout where the keycaps are almost non-existent  laugh.gif

ya mine is all standard

anyway i tried.. but difficult to search in taobao since i dont know how to write or read mandarin LOL

use taobao's main search; with keywords supplied by our friends above. alternatively use aliexpress.com

kprepublic's official website for non-chinese speakers is at https://kprepublic.com/ for kbdfans it's https://kbdfans.cn/
yes it's very nice looking smile.gif
.. this is another level of obsession hehe

when you're bored with taobao's choices, you can also explore https://en.zfrontier.com/ it's more about group buys so for most items, they might take many many months to reach you.
