eneroWhy? My understanding is any wood from trees in the Dalbergia genus (including all rosewoods) requires a CITES permit for international import/export. Odds of it being picked up if it is just declared as 'keycaps' for customs is low but it's still a legitimate concern if you don't want to risk fines and/or having your $140+shipping keycaps seized by customs with no refund.
GenjokoanMy first though was wondering about it's status as endangered, as well. Last I heard that was the case, which is why guitar manufacturers have been moving to different species for fretboards.
ferretallicaI think you folks are taking (their) "Rosewood" term too seriously. If you look at (junk) sellers across the internet, who sell anything that remotely resembles wood, you will see that a lot of them call anything that has a reddish hue, "rosewood" or "redwood" when in reality they are just cheap local stock that's been stained. Not to mention, that if this were any real species of rosewood, I would highly doubt that they can offer it at such a low (for any kind of exotic or endangered wood) price. Also, let's not forget where we are. This is Drop. You have to take everything with a grain of salt.

eneroso use redwood and not rosewood. they can get creative with naming a generic color of wood color or maybe provide more details. Like if it's basic pine stained with walnut color. I guess this is really on Drop for not providing clear info.
eneroI was, I am totally serious. I pretend to do a little wood working and I have watched many species disappear from the market over the last 40+ years. In the time it will take me to finish typing this comment, acres (yes, plural) of rainforest will be gone. I weep for the future of my species.
