I don't know
art keycaps, but I know what I like... I like 'em tall and round. Sculpted curves.
I have great love for older keyboards, and own several in various states of repair and usability. But... I would really like to have a new keyboard that just works well, something to use while tinkering on my older stuff. I found some keycaps that I really like, but don't know if they are a good deal or not.

I was hoping that someone might have a suggestion on what to buy that is similar to these keycaps, possibly cheaper, better, or both. I am willing to put up with long shipping times. I haven't purchased a keyboard yet, so if there is a package deal out there, I would be willing to check it out.
I am pretty set on a full size keyboard with a number pad.
Much thanks!

Welp, I went ahead and ordered a full set. I did some looking around and didn't find anything else that appealed to me at this price point. The caps I found that were cheaper seemed of lower quality and not the profile I wanted. There were other MT3 sets I found, but they were generally sold out or in color ways that didn't appeal to me.
I will update when I get them in a board. I was thinking something simple like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00S5E4KH2/?coliid=I3UTJ8D3O2LYJH&colid=2FSI4UV3MKUEW&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it
