I'd have to agree with fossala, while if you want a couple of keys it's great value, unless there are some big savings when you buy lots, makes them very pricey if you wanted enough for a whole keyboard (well, for the 1x1 keys)

No its 80p for one single 1x1 keycap, not a full set price
think its reasonable - WASD offering for $1 per keycap

This is intended for just small mods, not a full board set. Can you get 104 keycaps for £20 in the colours we have ? If so please show me where and Ill see if we can match

Think how much it will cost you. Then think how much you will need to sell a month to make a good business. Don't think, what is the most I can get. It is not a good way to start a business. If this is you business ethos it is fairly poor.

I know how much it will cost me. I am asking you what you would expect to pay for it. If I specify how much it is going to cost you now before the product is finalised that will lead me into trouble. So what would you pay for this sort of service?Is there anyone else doing it because we would like to know so we can be competitive with prices

I guess he's talking about DS, since he said they're abs.

As far as Im aware WASD only do laser etching for customisation limiting you to only one colour on a keycap.
Do SP offer customisation on a personal basis? If so how much does it cost? I haven't seen this. I thought they had to do MOQ's hence the group buys.
Will Qtan be offering it on a personal basis, or will he be selling generic keycaps?
What we hope to have is a keytop selector whereby you can make your own creations and not governed by what is decided by someone else.

DS Customisation? Want.
SP have huge prices for prototypes and stuff. Qtan offers group buys (MOQ 50), imsto does custom dye subs though. 3$ per key, but in China. Still, that’s pretty crazy. Dye sub will have huge competition from Asia but no one there can do DS, that’s where you can jump in.

Are these keys 100% Cherry profile? If so I might be interested to get some Cherry sets to work with my custom layouts with them (once I have one, way too busy now to start such a project).
If you can do 100% Cherry profile doubleshots, you’ll kill off SP Moogle kit orders. ;D

Yes they are 100% Cherry Profile. The J Series are not double shot though. They will be engrave and infilled with 1 or 2 colours.
I am getting some samples in the next week or 2 which I will post

Is there any chance of you expanding? There are quite a few topre users and you would be the only person on the market that offers it.
