Title: Does anyone know where I can get these keycaps?

They're on the KBT Pure Pro Massdrop. Blank Dark Grey PBT. I really like them, and I'm going to buy a Poker II soon (I don't like the layout of the Pure Pro).

Thanks

I've seen those, they look lighter. Also way too expensive.

don't be n00b. that's the price. if you think that's expensive.. just eat more top ramen and save $.

if you're on some sort of monthly allowance... well... there's always fight club...

It's not that I can't afford it, I just don't want to spend $75 on keycaps for a $100 keyboard.

Oh good... well just hang around GH for another week or so..

This is how you get situated with the prices...

We all thought the prices were a bit crzy in the beginning..

But eventually, you get accustomed to it..

Please note that a keycap set normally comes with 104 keys.
My recommendation is to look into Classified area or ask vendors in this GH forum if they have the special layout for Pure that you are looking for.

Alternatively, I think there is another place that you may get a set :
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.0.0.VFOw17&id=20873031816
~ 28 USD - 41 USD
However, I'm not sure if you can get from taobao and the credibility of seller.
Do it as your own risk.  :D

yea but then through the typical taobao agent, the price doubles, so, you're back to 60 to 80 $

Are you sure those are dark grey?
That black case looks pretty grey in the picture aswell so I think they're just black blank pbt's.

Buy the Pure Pro, rip the caps off of it and sell the naked board on the forums for $50. Should sell quick.
