Man, I love those dark color modifiers.  Wish our group buys could match that color.

I really like the orange or green on white RF boards. Nice look that doesn't beat you in the eye with harsh contrasts.

Bought them from the seller here. He told me he was going to sell his last set for $150 - $180.

Working on getting those as well.:tongue: Main reason I bought these was to see what the hype was all about haha. No regrets in that area! Might still put them up for trade or sale soon though. Wanna try out a bunch of new stuff before deciding on what suits me.

Cherry are the best caps in my opinion. It's what I have now decided to focus on, and it's getting really expensive quick, as generally keyboards come attached to them. Usually keyboards I don't even want. But I am going out of my way to get the ones that come in different colorways than black and white. I now have a coffee on cream set, and a black on light grey set. Really wish I could find a TA set with the blue keycaps. I have my eye on an unusual Nixdorf that I am hoping to get the seller to pull a cap for confirmation. I also have my obsession with Cherry centered stem caps and doubleshot 1,25 modifiers that is not so cheap or harder to find especially in white.
I suggest that you don't trade off or sell a brand new complete set. I can guarantee you would regret it later. I had a full white set not too long ago, and really really regret trading that as I now have paid quite a lot more for another one, which is not even ANSI.

I've been doing the same thing. Traded for a white set and since have bought two more. Want to get some while I can. Not that they are becoming extinct but still not the easiest thing to find.

lysol sounds like you got some sweet odd colored ones. Coffee and cream sounds really nice.
