Quick question, I know they said that regardless of backlight, the keys will be PBT keycaps. Does this mean that they will not be transparent to light the letters/symbols and instead just have the glow underneath the keys themselves? If so, I'd have to buy a whole other set of keycaps, right? I'm more into keyboards than keycaps so far, so I just wanted to make sure that the keyboard will actually have backlit keys/keycaps included.

agbockusYes, it's true that the stock keycaps will only have an underglow effect. You will need to buy backlit keycaps if you want light to shine through the legends on this keyboard. Massdrop was pretty upfront about this and posted pictures earlier in this discussion showing what it looks like with backlighting on this keyboard.

PenguinPenguinWow. I somehow didn't see that. Thank you for telling me about it! Well, sucks for me I guess...oh well, still love the clears! :)

agbockusSelling the stock keycaps is always an option. try reddit.com/r/mechmarket. A set sold for $25 pretty recently.

agbockusI am particularly excited to have an underglow effect on my dark poker (instead of shine-through) maybe you will end up liking it

CocoThepugYeah, maybe...I code and game a lot at night though, so that's why it would have come in handy. Regardless, I'm looking to purchase the KBC PBT Backlit caps when those come out - they just recently announced them...and they're only going to cost ~$33! :D

How to sell things on Drop & How Drop charge them?
Hi , this Kyle from China. Since a month ago, my team wanted to build a brand to produce the high quality of mechanical keyboard and headset to sell aboard. Now we already got the license to do so, and we can't wait to bring our products to meet everyone. But the products are still in the period of designing, it would take some time :( There are some questions we can't find the ways to solve - how to sell keyboard on Drop, and the details about how Drop charge per product? - Actually I sent an email to Drop Studio for some questions, but I didn't receive the answer.( Drop Studio also mentioned that they can contact me only if they were interested in my design / products ). So I'm here ask for help. If anyone can answer my question, I would really appreciate it :)
