Title: New website selling Topre keyboards to Europe!
Post by: Topkeydirect on Wed, 11 October 2017, 14:22:12
Hey Geekhack,

I'd like to announce www.topkeydirect.com, a new website selling Topre keyboards at fair prices to the European market.

I started this website after becoming annoyed at the high prices for Topre, due to a lack of competition in the European mechanical keyboard market. I determined to sell the products at a lower price, leveraging volume instead. Currently we only sell the HHKB Pro 2 and the Realforce 87U in Europe, but in the future we plan to expand to new products (including keycaps) and new continents.

If you have any suggestions for products or how to improve the site, either leave a comment here or email admin@topkeydirect.com. We greatly appreciate all feedback. Also, if you want to be notified with a (rare) email when we expand into new product lines or continents, enter your email at the bottom of the landing page of our site, or email admin@topkeydirect.com with the title "subscribe".

Thanks, Topkeydirect

EDIT : Sorry guys I'm taking the website down for now. Turns out I didn't have some legal stuff which I didn't know about. I'm working on getting all the legal stuff right now.

Wrong subforum but it'll get moved.

Have you been in the MK community before this? :-[

On his website, it says he got into the Topre world 3 months ago and bought the RF87! Good choice!  ;)

Best of luck with the website~

Great news for Europe!

If only we had something similar down here.

Also, any chance of coloured RealForce keycap sets?  Rumour has it that they are no longer produced at all by anyone, so hopes are not high.

Poor aus and nz, we don't get much stuff at all, and when we do get something, its for a crazy price.

PCCG was selling RealForce for a crazy low price about 6 or 7 years ago, but has stopped selling them at all by the time I decided I wanted one.

PCCG stocks a huge range of keyboards it's amazing, We have one or two occasion Topre boards for sale online, most of them are overpriced as hell, I've seen a 87U a while ago for $450 I think it was? Stock 87U that is

$100 more then what a new one will cost + shipping.

The $450 was for a second hand 87U, and it was originally bought in Japan, not sure if that means anything for the warranty though.
I haven't spotted any brand new Topre around here, only the Realforce RGB is all.
