You can go to Tec-Drome on 5th floor. Very nice uncle there and I never had any problem with him. He will usually give me a discount without need to ask and in the past, free Battle Pad Pro mousepads (I'm still using one now).

have to agree, nowadays better liao, maybe coz business is bad.

also can try cybermind, the kb all lying around, don't need to scared ppl come and bother/ pressure you to buy. but if you need help, just ask, they sure help.

I would say if you can, buy from the shops, unless it is something you can't find there. if not the shop sure gone, try to support them, usually if I can I buy locally, unless like crazy prices, like half price online or something.

Can get from extreme solution

FC660M gotten from Bic Camera Ueno (impulse buy), Leopold PBT keycap set are from x-treme.

FC660M has different spacebar, right shift and left windows key size. Not easy to find suitable keycap set in the market.

I think cm storm or corsair most wu hua leh, 2 years warranty for the price. Got logitech too if you don mind the flashy design.

in this day, choices for mech kb are in abundance. key thing is to try before you buy!

there's too many combinations avail. add china into the mix and you will get a headache just looking. can also be fun to do trial and error, like buy hotswappable kb and change the type of switches, keycaps, add o rings, and maybe even landing pads on some.

to me it's the whole process of hunting down, trying and testing, on that note, some zelios are headed my way!!!




will update once I receive them.

you just need to get plate mount switches. (3 legs/ pins).

Anyone ordered from winkeyless.kr before?

Saw this keyboard here which was really interesting https://imgur.com/a/jZz30

Not sure if winkeyless has the option to build for us before sending over because i dont really know how to DIY a keyboard haha.

 

[zephyr11]

i'm sure if you pay enough money anything is possible.

Thanks! I saw your post. Really neat keyboard! How would you say the brown/black outemu switches differ from the cherry mx ones?

And did you ordered from winkeyless before?

 

[zephyr11]

^^^^^^^^^^

othemu switches definitely lose out to cherry, imo.

decent to start, but once you use it more, and get to try other switches. you will most definitely be able to tell the difference.

still waiting for my zelios to come in, and will be mixed with othemu blacks, and maybe some gateron browns.

I've not ordered from winkeyless before, sorry.
