I paid $ 37 shipping included in a special promotion from Aliexpress.

For the switches I choosed the Gateron Pro 3.0 Silver, just for try a short travel switch for rapid action. They are very smooth and light.

The keycaps are also from Aliexpress, from a shop called Womier, they have an own profile called XVX, are very ergonomics with a big surface for the finger.
The legends are sharp and consistent, I'm very surprised for the quality.

Everything is lubed with Krytox 205g0 and have three layers of masking tape.

It's my first 65% keeb, I'm still getting used to the format.
The knob it's a great future, I'm use it a lot.

The only downside than I see it's the ABS plastic for the case, it's feels cheap and weak, but for the price you can't ask for more.

I want going to do some mods like that too, but I ended up not. Maybe sometime in the future haha.

Honestly the ABS case feels decently solid when actually using it, def feels better than a lot of the gaming company keyboards.

I think I didn't express myself well... I'm not a native English speaker.
$37 was the full price paid to Aliexpress. Incredibly cheap.
