Painters always say that the quality of a paint job starts with the prep job. Was the surface cleaned and prepped as well as possible?

HyperX Alloy Elite 2 – "just" $9,999.90





Yes, at that price, they must've sold out quickly.  :)

Maybe a way to move money that is otherwise not possible?  Google search shows that the limit on price for one item on Amazon is 10k. 🤷‍♂️

Most likely is that the item is sold out, but they don't want to remove from listing or say it's sold out so the jack up the price so much to the point where no reasonable person will buy it until they get some in stock and reduce the price. you do see on some online companies stores but rarely on amazon.

cherry blacks - unlubed - filmed and springswapped with tx 55g mediums - alu Plate | pretty happy with this, the blacks were cherry picked so they weren't that scratchy to begin with, but currently breaking them in, may lube them with a dry lube like ro59 or ptfe powder.

lubed with tribosys 3203 | like topre a lot, prefer it lubed but did make less tactile but that might have been a skill issue. probably will get more tactile over time as the domes age.

bad orange alps lol | definitely needs a restoration. planning on wax boiling them and maybe a replacement pcb because the board has only 2 key rollover apparently.

gateron yellows - lubed with 205g0 - 62g tx mediums - pc plate | probably my favourite keyboard already, feels super nice and sounds pretty good, it's got a great layout as well. probably gonna build this with mx browns, I feel like it would suit the board more.

stock with silent reds | Pretty cool looking board, the silent reds are actually good, they are smooth and I don't mind the mushiness (it's not even that mushy as well). the layout is pretty weird, but is useable. will probably mod this in the future. maybe a pcb and plate swap, change the keycaps to something dolch like, and also spring swap the springs in the silent reds.
