I bought mine in the original drop, back in May-ish. I didn't see any manufacturing defects in mine, so I was very pleased. My only complaint was that the legends started wearing very quickly.
This isn't a very good photo, but you can definitely see the wear on the left Ctrl and Alt keys:

Keep in mind that I was part of the second shipment, so I received mine in late July. I wish they had gone with a better printing method.

efemanAll things considered the price is good even with the key legends wearing quickly. I had the same issue (same grey version) and replaced them with the white Vortex PBT key caps currently on a drop here.
Of course they could have just shipped the keyboard with PBT keycaps but I'm sure that would have brought the price up more since the Pok3r already has the aluminum base.

xtianyvesStill good quality keyboard with good quality keycaps is cheaper than good quality keyboard with crapy keycaps + more durable keycaps as replacement. I know there are persons who want just good quality keyboard and don't care about money which spend on customizations but (probably not only) I just want good quality product without modding it just after unboxing.
For clear, stock Poker keycaps are not completely crap but I would be more happy with not visible wearing legends just after few weeks of usage! I believe that good quality coat will not increase drastically final price.
In this place maybe selling keyboard without any keycaps will be better solution for all.
