"Facebook has nothing to do with this promotion."

"Can only enter by adding a Facebook comment below."

Yeah, not worth it. Not with Facebook. Not even if they were giving everyone who add a comment a free set.

Don't get me wrong, thanks for sharing, but Facebook is just way to creepy and unethical for me to get near. I'm sure others here will take a gamble though.

Can't tell if I like those keys or not...

Reasonably nice looking for a display set, but not one I'd want on a daily driver -- the contrast change is too stark for my taste. If it had gone from the top row deep red and faded to a deep blue, or even a darker set of yellows and orange, then maybe.

Yes, I would love to have a sunset on my keyboard . Thanks for the link byker.

Hmmm, I think you're right.  Contrast is a bit much.  Still, it's rare and I do like rare things.

For those who don't have Facebook or are on mobile and it's a bit hard to see the picture:



That's the set that Cherry/ZF is giving away on their Cherry MX Facebook page.

Not exactly clear how many sets are available? I don't have Facebook. Would suck if they only have one set to give away and 100000 people like them.

[CPTBadAss]

Seems like one set. Or at least just one winner. That's usually how Facebook/social media giveaways work.

Hopefully they make more sets to sell though.

Aww man it's on! I wish they had more pictures...

You can buy them KC104 sets from China, I think they are something like $35-45 a set. They are OK sets, same as current thin Cherry PBTs that come on G80 line. PBTs also come in plain white/light grey and rainbow. I suppose the black sets are POM.

The legends are laser etched? Would love go get my hands on the plain white/light grey set. Do you have a link?

[IvanIvanovich]

Just enter Cherry KC104 in taobao you will find plenty of listings. I can't be bothered to find out which if any have stock.

Will the caps lock key only fit on a G80-3800?

Totally agree, stay away from that slimy, NSA approved website. Totally not worth anything no matter what they wave in front of your eyes to come into their lair of lies and deceit.

Zuckerberg can go fvck himself  .

I mean, I'd be happy if I won, but that keyset is still pretty ugly

Are they also cherry profile? Just curious. Sometimes those Chinese sites dont translate too well and it's hard to tell.
