Isn't it just $188? But you will have to get your own PCB for it, still is a very good price for what you get. At least it is using a burger-mount instead of the usual tray mount found in most budget custom mech keyboards.

yes add on pcb about 200+? add on keycaps plus switches add ups to nearing 300 liao.

is definitely pricier compared to pre build but you get the advantage of custom building your keyboard from scratch all the way.

better then some custom mech keyboards like Glorius GMMK Pro kbdfans etc for those who really wanna have a taste of what a good keyboard sound and feel like should really try this.

only problem is not much value if resell compared to other high end keyboard from geonwork, keycult etc.

yea the difference is quite big.

but plate mount stabs most of the time is pretty muted and sluggish to use even after modding.

the next step up would recommend you to just save up and get into custom HEX Keyboard from singapore
like HEX.3C selling at about $300 sgd?

Never heard of them before haha.
And out of my budget already :[

lol keyboard 10 dollar can use 10k also can use.
sometimes owning a expensive keyboard also put there on the table when your not using

but when using lousy keyboard also thinking that if only i can splurge abit get a better one?

just set a budget and never go beyond it.

but a good tactic is some gmk keycaps are very profitable if you dont mind
waiting years to get the keycaps, reselling them later can make you lots of profit to start this keyboard hobby for free

Does anyone have any recommendations for a 100% wireless cherry keyboard? PBT keycaps but not priority.

Looking for 1st mechanical keyboard, between Ducky and RK which is worth getting? Main usage would be for gaming plus some CAD. Not sure whether the lesser key type is suitable for CAD and between brown, red, blue switch to get? Prefer to have RBG and hot swappable.

$150 gone.

EZBuy lost my keyboard kit, keycaps, everglide stabilizers, and switch films.

Have to reorder and pay another $150 for the same thing again.
From budget keyboard become an average-priced custom keyboard now... Paying twice for the price of one keyboard.

no insurance on that?

Nah. One of their CSO even called me and say only can refund up to $100. That's their policy. I started questioning them, it was in their warehouse, next moment before/during delivery say missing. It's obviously something went wrong with their side, it's not just a simple case of "missing". If it's in the warehouse, and it's not delivered, and it went missing, something must have happened. BUT why am I only receiving $100 worth of refunds. What if their warehouse team/delivery team stoled the parcel, I'm still only getting compensated with $100 only? What kind of rubbish is that lol. If it was lost in transit between China and SG, that's just unlucky for me, i have nothing else to say. But lost in their warehouse, that's ******** already.

no insurance on that?

Nope. Didn't see the need to buy insurance over a $132~ product (excluding $15 shipping). On a separate note, it's a good lesson for those out there who want to use EZBuy. Split your parcels into multiple orders below $100. In the event that there's really misappropriation conducted by EZBuy, at least they can refund you up to the full amount.

Latest update is,

I made police report, sent them the police report for their info,
got a call today, say willing to do full refunds, or reorder the exact items and send them all back to me again at no extra cost.

Opted for option 1 of full refunds.

Edited:
To clarify, is not just make police report for missing parcel. Is made police report for theft/misappropriation on the basis that:
1) Item was confirmed to be in their warehouse
2) Item as undelivered
3) Item went missing before/during delivery.

 

[stylechap]

Wah..respect you to screw them on their nonsense
And yea..sometimes its not about the money

[HexenHeretic]

I've some questions on RK860 with hot swappable switches, can any bros here help?

If I want to change switches on the RK860, what switches can I use?
I searched abit, seems like it can fit switches with 5pin and north facing LEDs only?
