I want to trade my das keyboard ultimate blank with cherry mx blues, for the same exact one but with the lettering on the keys. I find myself messing up in games (whatt a noob) lol, well if you play starcraft I guess its understandable?

why not buy some keycaps?

Of course trading could be free, but you can also buy a new set of keys for it if you'd like. The lettered keys das makes are lasered and get dirty really easily. (At least mine did, and I am a hand-washing freak.)
For instance: http://www.ebay.com/itm/KBC-Purple-on-Black-PBT-Cherry-MX-Key-Caps-104-keys-included-/330753333204?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item4d026f57d4 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/KBC-Purple-on-Black-PBT-Cherry-MX-Key-Caps-104-keys-included-/330753333204?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item4d026f57d4) ... which are PBT plastic instead of ABS (keep texture longer, feel better some say), etc. Lots of options if you look around.
Just throwing it out there in case it's helpful.

I guess, but I like the keys the keyboard comes with, stupid choice by me to get the ones u cant read :P

Are the blank keycap models still made by Costar? Not trying to derail your sale, was just wondering. I thought I remembering reading somewhere they were.

Well, I have a das with printed keys I'd trade the caps to you, but it's been out on loan for over a year in another city. And I'm pretty sure the legends are really darkened by now... might be the case with any you find. You might email the company and perhaps they'll sell you some. Surely they get quite a few people who regret the blank keys.

The current Ultimate models are made by Costar and the Professional with media keys are made by iOne.
