Does anyone have any experience ordering from Signature Plastics? Was thinking about ordering some keycaps from them. For those that have ordered from them, what's the price range for a set of PBT keycaps (104). Thanks in advance for the help.

They sell over run parts of PBT caps that you can buy. It's apparently $1 for each cap but since you're buying 104, you might be able to get a discount. Check out the site and hopefully some other ppl can chime in with some info as well.

Can anyone hint at what sort of discount is available when buying a full 104 set? I know some people here have ordered these overruns.
$1 each is ludicrous considering they're also blank (they do ship blank, right? legending would be extra, if even possible?).

None, they don't offer any discount on blanks unless you are buying in large volume. A single full set of blanks will cost $104. Also often times they won't have all the needed keysize in a particular color force to mix and match. Thier doubleshot sets are a better value. For PBT blanks there are cheaper sources with just as good or better keycaps though more limited color selection.

Try contacting them and asking :)
Yes they're all blank, currently SP only offers blank (extras), dyesub (expensive), and doubleshot (only arrows) in PBT.
