Drop Mech Keys Meetup Recap - Thanks for Visiting!
As you may have seen, we just hosted our first meetup in quite a while here at Drop HQ (Corsair HQ, but they seem to like us enough :) )! It was a blast to get to meet so many enthusiasts local to the bay area—it had been 10 years since I was last hanging out with keyboard nerds in the bay, at KeyCon 2014. We had a great time hosting everyone at the offices, checking out all the very nice boards y'all brought, and sharing some of our own projects/spaces! I knew it would be fun to host in the Game Room when I first saw it in person, but seeing it come to fruition was still so cool. Alright, I'll stop blabbering on now. xD Picture time! (Oh, real quick - there will be more of these! Stay tuned for more info and to catch the next one!)

The price of the keyboard isn't really a problem. In fact, with free shipping, you're saving maybe $10 over buying it from EliteKeyboards. The deal here is that you're getting some pens with it.
Many Topre enthusiasts harvest these boards for their caps. For me, having a 55g 87U with HiPro caps is pretty much Topre endgame!
I think Md ought to change the wording in this listing. Many aren't going to find it easily; I've skimmed over it a few times without realizing it was the HiPro keyboard. The caps should be emphasized, as well as the pen, in the title, and also in the description throughout.
