Hmm, seems a bit angry. You may find better luck here. The second one is pbt. You mentioned shipping + more, may as well buy one from a store.

Yeah i looked at it, with shipping it comes close to 20$ CAD, which i find a little pricy for a single keycap.

I don't think i've been around long enough to start a thread, but willing to buy it if someone has a black blank 1.75 Cherry profile row C? I believe DCS row 3 is close enough? I'd pay a few bucks for one

Ideally i'd get a POM centered blank caps lock but i don't think those exist? Reusing my keyset from a das2. I think the space will be easy enough to re-use but not thinking the capslock will be.
Thanks!

You're still trying to bypass the rules coming in here. You only need 5 more posts, as you meet the two month requirement already.

http://keyshop.pimpmykeyboard.com/products/blank-key-packs/dcs-1-75-space

Keep an eye on this page. It doesn't have the black you're looking for right now, but they may sooner or later. If you need a cap right now, they have some grey and white that, while not being black, may mesh well enough.

http://keyshop.pimpmykeyboard.com/products/blank-key-packs/blank-key-packs-1-75-and-2-space

Here are some DSA caps. While they may not look the same, they do have black.

Didn't mean to bypass anything. Thanks for the headsup. I looked there before, wasn't sure the stock changed. i'll keep an eye on it.

The problem is that I can only find packs with individual colors (with each pack costing ~$20) amounting to about $60 just to acquire a handful of needed LEDs. Any help will be much appreciated!

If you're fine with waiting a bit, you can find some good deals on ebay.

Ex: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/New-10-value-300pcs-Five-Colors-3mm-Round-bright-light-LED-Assortment-kit-080070-/301493038080?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item463262ac00

There's definitely better deals kicking around too -- you want 3mm LEDs or 2x3x4mm. Flangeless is better, but a little bit of sandpaper can take care of the flange without trouble.

Just take note of the shipping location and cost. You can usually find good deals from china with free shipping, but it will probably take 4-5 weeks. If you find something from the states, shipping will probably be faster.

Um, he's from that famous college where students rioted when the school authorities fired their football coach because of a child sex abuse scandal... latest in a series of riots whenever they have an important football event.

Of course I can't say that of everyone, but when many people go to Penn State their priorities are not on studying.
