Title: KBC Poker PBT Keycaps
Post by: REVENGE on Mon, 04 July 2011, 21:08:39

Has anyone ordered a Poker with a "PBT" cap set? If so, did you receive an engraved set, or a Ducky style brown infilled lasered set?

No, but now I'm curious where one could get a set of engraved or lasered keycaps for the KBC Poker?

A relative just picked up a Poker with PBT caps and Blue switches from this seller in Shanghai: http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=9907464470&ad_id=&am_id=&cm_id=&pm_id=

I was hoping for engraved PBT caps, but instead they are Ducky style lasered caps with brownish lettering. According to the seller, these are the currently available factory standard PBT cap set with Poker specific legends.

But anyways, Pokers turn out to be really cheap over there. You can forgo delivery fees and pay cash if you do a local pickup. That means an ABS Blue switch Poker can be had for less than $60. The engraved key caps (without Poker legends) are also really cheap.

Would you care to post pictures of the PBT versions when you get them?

If your relative still there, tell them to pick up another set and I'll drive over with cash to pick it up.  =P

Doh! He's coming back tomorrow, so I'm not sure he'll have time to go and pickup another board. :-/ However, some more relatives might be over coming back in the next two months, so future board purchases might be doable.

That's the plan!
