Title: Cherry G84-4100?

Is there anyone that sells replacement Keycaps for this Keyboard? I'd love to have a blank set of keys for a replacement. What am I looking for?

This is pretty much your only option, as far as I know

I have looked, but not many choices out there.

I see i have a replacement board already... (as you can tell I'm never happy with what i have) did you notice they layout of the keys are slightly different between that one and the Black KB i got from you? That board has F11 and F12 on it and the black on has num Lock and PrtSc in its place.

I never noticed it, honestly. Since it's the entire PCB you would be replacing, it doesn't matter anyways :)

But yeah, Cherry ML keycaps ... hard to find.

Apparently SP does them. No idea how expensive they will be, but probably a lot.
