Title: Any good SA keycaps I can buy atm?
Post by: Luciqueii on Fri, 24 August 2018, 06:56:14
Are there any good SA keycaps anywhere that I can order? I find it really hard to find SA keycaps to buy. Any color welcome but if you find good looking white or chocolate then +++++

Just hit me up with links or forums maybe I have missed out. :)

looks somewhat chocolaty (https://kbd.fans/collections/sa-profile/products/maxkey-bc-sa-keycaps-set)

the cheap ones might not be the best quality (https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?SearchText=sa+keycaps&opensearch=true)

I bought the SA 9009 from KPRepublic (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/9009-colorway-sa-profile-Dye-Sub-Keycap-Set-thick-PBT-plastic-keyboard-gh60-xd60-xd84-cospad/32882922059.html?spm=2114.search0104.3.52.3c101122R6ceOe&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_2_10152_10151_10065_10344_10068_10342_10343_10340_10341_10696_310_10084_10083_10618_10304_10307_10820_10821_10302_10843_10059_100031_10103_10624_10623_10622_10621_10620_526,searchweb201603_56,ppcSwitch_5&algo_expid=ec8a317b-b565-4d24-bc21-3296346f62b1-7&algo_pvid=ec8a317b-b565-4d24-bc21-3296346f62b1&priceBeautifyAB=0)

I like it for the price and availability

people seem to hate it because the caps are warped but when it sits on my keyboard you can't really notice it, at least I don't. It came in a foam tray which is quite convenient

The texture is grainy unlinke SP SA PBT which is smooth, I enjoy both

I've Purchased one SA Carbon knock off set from Aliexpress and the quality is surprisingly nice. The legends are printed, but the plastic is pretty thick and durable. They sound nice too. They obviously aren't SP quality or doubleshot, but they do the trick and arrived quickly and without issue.
