How do I order this from South Korea?
« on: Tue, 30 May 2017, 09:53:35 »
I am interested in purchasing two sets of these (red RF Topre keycap sets):
http://www.leopold.co.kr/?doc=cart/item.php&it_id=1309942685

I do not believe that Leopold ships to the US. Is there an intermediary I can use to purchase these and get them shipped to me in the US? I am more than happy to pay a reasonable fee for the service.

Also, for anyone who has used an intermediary before, is there a rule of thumb that I should use? Like 50% upfront and 50% when I get them? I obviously want to protect myself as much as possible.

Thanks!

If you don't know anyone in korea, just use buying service (although fees are high compared to ordering from China/taobao)

Avecko or collectkorea are names that come to mind, never used them however

Thank you!

I figured there were people on here that might be willing to help me out... just didn't know who.

Do you have any recommended names of buying services?

unrelated but i think these are out of stock

if you try to add them to cart you get a message saying "something something -1", and on this page (http://www.leopold.co.kr/?doc=cart/list.php&ca_id=20i010) they all have a red icon. items without the icon can be added to cart

Thanks for the info. That was a fear I had. I guess I will still reach out to the South Korea contacts to see if they can get them.

It's a long shot but you could contact these people to see if they have any idea where/how to find these sets.
