Hello,

Unfortunately we do not ship products to the US. For customs reasons we only ship products to other countries in the EU.

Best regards,
Rasmus

Can you confirm that these red keys have a rougher key texture than the white ones?

Yes, the red keys are a little rougher than the white keys. But just a little.

Thanks. I hope ripster read this.

Did he not think the red keys are a little rougher than the white key's texture?
Title: RED Topre keys
Post by: RiGS on Wed, 29 June 2011, 11:13:18: He believes that the white keys have the same texture as the rest of the Topre keys.
Obviously this is not the case.
Title: RED Topre keys
Post by: litster on Wed, 29 June 2011, 12:11:53: To be honest, I didn't think that there is any difference before you asked me. When I really look closer and start really rubbing and touching the red and white keys back and forth, then I could tell there is a very small difference. The dark, dark red also makes it hard to see the texture and compare it to the white keys. Maybe I should take some macro shots of both the red and white keys to look closer.
