Welcome to GeekHack!

Check the pchome thread and armygroup discussion thread. They may have some in stock.

note: You may need google chrome to translator so you can order from them.

Also it's recommended to use google translate within google chrome. It seems to translate the best in that browser.

There's a really good guide for ordering on the first page of the Armygroup (http://geekhack.org/showpost.php?p=255060&postcount=4) thread if you decide to order from there.

when people say that blacks suck for typing do them mean that its just like typing on a normal keyboard, or like its actually bad?

This red Filco (http://www.geekstuff4u.com/majestouch-italian-red-keyboard.html) would look sweet with that red Ducky wrist rest.

$234 after exchange... bit steep for a Filco I'd say, even if it is fancy pants Italian Red.

As for Black switches and typing, the lack of a tactile point means you have to be a bit more deliberate in how far you move your finger rather than just waiting for the feedback the switch produces. Plus they require more force to actuate than the Blues or Browns. I still prefer Black switches to membrane keyboards, but they are my least favorite to type on.
