As per title, interested on a full UK layout of PBT keycaps. I don't want engraved or side printed ones. Anything else is a go.
I am based in the uk so any offers should include estimated international shipping.
Thanks

If you PM Feng, he usually has blank black and white PBT sets for sale. Imsto sells dyesub PBT sets as well.

He doesn't carry iso layouts.

I don't want blank ones sorry I should have said that I want normally printed PBT keycaps. And I know Imsto does not have ISO layouts.
Qtan does some on ebay in the UK but they are blank, engraved, or blank whites. I don't understand why it is so hard to find some normally printed PBT keycaps in ISO format!!!!

Because there aren't a lot of people willing to buy an ISO pbt set, and tooling costs a lot :P.
Get some awesome DS set from somewhere, so your keyboard will look really nice. (ex: the diablo font, but it will be a few month until you'll get those keys).

Sorry for the horrifically stupid question but are DS keys PBT? I just hate the stock ABS keys that came with my Filco. I have been looking for some decent keys and was about to get some of the RGBY set but was not quite so sure. Will jump on the next decent looking set though.

No, DS*keys are still abs.
But the contrast is higher, and the legend won't fade away.

And will get shiny after a short time of normal use.

but pbt doesn't exist in iso layout yet, so there is no other option as abs alas.

My unicomp begs to differ.

Seeing as how this thread was started in reference to a TKL Filco I would hope we don't need to be so pedantic as to continuously mention that point in order to qualify our statements.
