Post by: sokjin on Thu, 30 June 2011, 08:37:50

Lately ive been trying to get a hold of starcraft 2 keycaps but failed horribly (waiting on round 4)

For any one piece fans

anyone else found any other sources where there are similar keycaps like these? and where they are able to purchase such amazing keycaps!

I didn't know calavera is Korean.  He posted here (http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?18517-Cherry-Corp-Esc-PBT-Transformers-Punisher-PBT-and-Others&p=370239&viewfull=1#post370239) also.

As for the other one, I doubt if any owner of a pink Filco would be willing to sell just that key cap separately but you never know.

Yeah, I guess you saw the original thread (http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?18517-Cherry-Corp-Esc-PBT-Transformers-Punisher-PBT-and-Others) where he got them from.  Start a thread in the Marketplace stating that you'd like to buy those keys.  Someone might sell them to you.  Good luck.

Hahaha, you're funny, LiMP. There are extensions in Chrome and Firefox that can translate the page, but Taobao is the Chinese ebay. So it's in Chinese.

If the extensions don't work for you, if you let me know EXACTLY what you are looking for, I can help you out. Then you would take that find, pass it along to a broker like Obook or Taobaobee, who would purchase it and ship it to you. They do charge for their services, however.

Do you mean the ones in the taobao link you posted? If so, what you do is contact obook (http://www.myobook.net/) or taobaobee (http://taobaobee.com/english-taobao/product.php?iid=9477974808) (take your pick, both are agents, but obook is fairly well regarded around here), and let them know what you want.

Obook has a fee of $2.50, plus shipping, so keep that in mind. But those keys are only about $1.50 (conversion rate is about 6.5) + shipping to the broker, which is a little over $2. So you're looking at probably $15, total, after the international shipping, I would guess.

If it's something else you want, try to find it via taobaobee, or be much more detailed in what you are looking for.

Hope that helps!

now, I love One Piece, but I'd want a different design on the cap.  Marine seagull!
