Are these the same ones that Techkeys.us was selling in their pre-sale?

Yep. I got it from ebay and they're awesome. Beware though they're thin (filco oem) thickness and some people don't like that.

The set I got from TechKeys did not come with a key puller.

Watch out for the |\ key which is not the correct legend. Nice thing is that they are black on black, and thus you seldom see it.

Yeah, I've read about that in the Techkeys Pre-Sale thread. I don't think it'll bother me. Thanks for the heads up :)

I bought the 104key version of these keys recently from this website.

I can confirm that the \ | key printing is reversed. From your pic, looks like yours is also. Oh well.
