Ohai :D
« on: Sat, 15 September 2012, 07:19:19 »
howdilly doodilly neighborinos!

My topre 104U arrived on tuesday, White, looks like an old prehistoric keyboard but whiter!

I want to make my keyboard pretty.. any websites besides elitekeyboards where i can buy topre keycaps for cheaper?

possibly taobao or other cheap websitess? Mind you i love in australia where i'm far away from everything :(
so shipping can get quite expensive even though keycaps aren't that heavy to ship...

But anyway, nice to meet you all :))

I don't believe there are any other sources. You can try and look/ask in the classifieds section. And If you're looking for the CC Skulls then beware of the pricetag on the market. = )

Haha, I was going to get a DUCKY shine 2 from PCCG (aus) but a week before it came out the topre was on special for an extra 50 so I figured why not?

That classic look is so enticing ...
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
