Title: Finding a Filco Majestouch-2
Post by: Shikarikato on Sun, 24 February 2013, 16:21:12
I'm going to get a mechanical keyboard rather soon but I can't find a full sized Filco Majestouch-2 with Cherry MX Browns in the US. Does anyone have any idea where I can obtain one?
Also if a full sized isn't out there where can you get a TKL because I can't find either of them.

They have it in stock, you will have to email them too see if they ship to the US though. Sorry.

right here? (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=39617.0) :)

i have some shined sets of cherry doubleshots that could go with it, or the stock filco caps, but the filco keys have a few months of wear, and wear quickly, and the cherry sets are incomplete (missing the usual 1.25x mods, numpad 0, long right shift)

http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=40436.0 check this out. I think they will go for a groupbuy of filco tkl mx brown. Supposed to be cheaper than regular retail if I am not mistaken but you will have to wait for it.

I recently bought a Filco Majestouch 2 Tenkeyless through the keyboardcompany. Another option would have been to get it through Amazon.co.uk. Ordered it from the keyboard company directly since I wanted to get some other stuff from there. I live in Holland. Shipping cost were fairly steep. I think it was 9 pounds/ over 10 euros.
