Title: Where can I buy a KBC Poker?
Post by: encrypted on Sat, 17 December 2011, 18:46:28

I'm new to the "keyboard game" but I've been looking around for a KBC Poker Cherry MX Blue or Brown but I can't find anything at all... aside from stores in Australia that don't sell to the U.S.  Where can I get one of these in the U.S.?

Also, where can I get a set of keys?  I see some people throw white keys in their black keyboards..

Is that the only place?  I saw some but they're all sold directly from China.  Same with the keys?

I think I saw a group buy here in the other section for one of their newer models with back lighting.  You can check it out in the group buy section.

I don't suppose you have a link, do ya?  I can't find the thread you're talking about.

those aren't "new" kbc pokers.

those are vortex race, which have more of a choc mini layout.

that's the keyboard he's talking about.

and you can find pokers in the classified sections, or get them from qtan (which has really quick shipping)
