wes1099The focus of high quality key caps like these ones are beyond the scope of off the shelf low cost mechanical keyboards, or TaiHao cheap key caps or the likes. If you are in the market for low cost keyboard stuff you should be better looking elsewhere. You may think on this as those complaining that a mechanical keyboard is very expensive compared with a rubber dome, well, this set is very expensive compare with OEM stock keycaps or Chinese sets, of course, they are different products, for different markets. This is for people building custom keyboards that may cost several hundreds, not to be mistaken with the keyboards you are referring to.

ideusSo you're saying there is nothing really special about these except for exclusivity? Pity, was hoping for less form over function...

ideuslol im just joking around. The keyboard I am typing on right now cost 3x as much as this keyset, and I have spent about $700 on keyboards in total (between building my GoN NerD60, model M restoration project, 1st generation infinity keyboard, and a few sets of caps). I just haven't spent more than $40 on a keyset before because I don't have much of a budget for keyboards and I would rather put the money I do have for keyboards towards an actual keyboard itself.

wes1099I also prefer to get function over form, I call it USER mentality, against, COLECTOR's mentality and my budget goes first to my family's needs, before to my hobby, but that does not change the fact that this is one of the best quality key sets you may have.
