Title: Is there a US Version of the Leopold store?
Post by: mlangner001 on Sat, 17 September 2011, 11:56:52
I think that I found a really nice web store for both keyboards and replacement keycaps but it is completely in Chinese (http://leopold.co.kr/ (http://leopold.co.kr/))
And Google translate either have given up on translating those pages or all the text is represented as picture files (or something else that Google can't translate)

a) Anybody have experience with the store?
b) Do they have a version in English (or at least not in Chines)?
c) Is there a similar store in the US? (please don't say http://elitekeyboards.com/ (http://elitekeyboards.com/) because those guys in theory have a nice offering but everything that I am interested in is SOLD OUT...

(I am looking for Cherry MX replacement key caps ... Red ESC key, blank (either black or white) letter keys, and light blue arrow keys, and 2 Keys to replace the Windows symbol on my Filco)

Thanks for any help!

I have been happy with the laser engraved ABS keycaps I got from WASDkeyboards.

If you look in the group buy section I think Jrock is doing GB on some keycaps.. I'm kinda assuming he might be getting directly from leopold..

At the price that he is charging, $25 for a single keycap, I think you'd be better off emailing david @ iomania about buying keyboards off their store.
Iomania and leopold.co.kr offerings are quite similar
