Post by: Emospence on Thu, 22 August 2013, 01:25:22
-Full size
-PBT or double shot ABS key caps
-Comes with blue and brown switches
-Costar stabilizers
-If possible, relatively no frills

Is there any mech kb on the market at the moment that has all these properties in stock?

But you do have to do the costar stabilizers yourself.  I will fully instruct anyone that needs to do this.. should You choose to go with the Ergodox

I would suggest to buy some costar made keyboard like CM XT, Rosewill 9000, Filco... and an aftermarket set of keycaps.

^  Yeah basically what he said, there isn't any stock Costar made keyboard out there that comes with PBT or ABS double shot.

Though it wouldn't be hard to find a keyboard that fit all your requirement except keycaps have to be aftermarket.

Oh another option is to buy the barebone WASD V2 keyboard.

Good call, I forgot about the Keycool 108 with white PBT keycap. Has everything you want cost about $120. Actually you are probably in a good position to get it cheaper from China.
