or just an add-on set from someone else?
-
Looks nice, but ... "Shipping: Not Available to Australia" - typical.
-
The main cluster looks lasered, who knows about the colored keys. Could be 2-shot or pad printed.
lysol will come in here and drop some knowledge on us momentarily, I'm sure.
-
The function keys are defineatly not Cherry keys, probably some SP. Not sharp corners, not Cherry font.

Here's one with a few legit colored Cherry keys, and it's MX clears too... G80-1819HEU (http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=2013.1.0.123.caf687&scm=1007.77.0.0&id=15194352176&ad_id=&am_id=&cm_id=&pm_id=). Appears to have been a custom order for bank teller station. Would probably be about $80-85 all in with agent fees and reshipping to USA.

I found a few of those boards when I first got into keyboards. All the custom keycaps on that boards are NOT made by Cherry Corp.
-
They sure look like Cherry keycap to me. Granted they are probably only pad print but still. Nice sharp corners on the base, and Cherry was pretty much the only ones that made them that way on MX. Font looks right... you sure Bini?
-
F9 and F10 look different to me. F9 looks more like SP, whereas F10 looks more cherry-esque. Look at the rounded/sharp sides and top finger area. F1-F3 look SP... IS that a sprue mark on F3?
I could be wrong, but most of the F-row looks more like SP than cherry (at least to me)
-
The 7000 is certainly SP, the 1819 I linked defineatly looks like Cherry, the corners on the keybase are far too sharp to be SP. SP corners are really round and soft and create more space ^ where key meet, not + nice straight lines like Cherry.

Here is another colorful cherry caps from that seller
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=2013.1.0.109.e04942&scm=1007.77.0.0&id=14314230826&ad_id=&am_id=&cm_id=&pm_id=
Do you have any information about that 1819 keyboard, lysol?
-
No, I don't really know anything more about it. I have that green 1.25 start key. It's a doubleshot of Cherry. I thought it is a funny Windows key replacement.
