Looking for economical (so I can buy many sets) white keycaps (hopefully with larger/bolder fonts) similar to what I found on EBay:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/121158771946?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
Unfortunately, nobody seems to have WHITE! in stock!
Saw the ones from WASDKeyboards but the fonts are too small.
EK does not have white either.
Any vendors where I can get these?

WASD's "classic" layout has conventional sized legends, say around 1/4 the keycap surface area. Is that too small?
Their "modern" legends are very small though.

Thanks, yes, I guess the "modern" version is a little bigger, but it still looks small compared to the EBay link...
With WASD, I have to start with at least $30 (with s/h) for 37 keys.
What's going on with white keycaps (not in stock)? Any other options?

Techkeys is selling a white Vortex set oF PBT at a reasonable price, if you don't mind the italic font.
Depending on why you want larger legends, the Vortex legends are sufficient thick and black on a sufficiently white keycap that they should be easily readable.

Thanks, yeah the italics are a turn... off.
I'll keep searching...
