Morning/Afternoon GeekHackers,
i know that group buys and keycaps itself got separate forum but at least the one with gb are ones already ongoing. And I just wanna get your opinion before i create one if there's even a point to do that.....
pictures below.
Pure silver
Hallmark : 925
Weight : 9~10
Minimum order for each R1-R2-R3-R4 : 100.
Cost : Each keycap 20$.
Taking orders ~ 1 month
Production ~ 2 weeks
Delivery ~ within europe few days - rest world 1~2 weeks
Mine the one on pictures below is clear but it can be mat (additionally engraved signs on top/side).
please share your opinion about do you like it, would you order it?.......

there is an interest check forum for posts like this :)

I like it, but I wouldn't order it. Too expensive, not much point IMHO. Zinc ones are good enough for me if I want metal keycaps.

Nice, what profile?

Not expensive at all! I couldn't outsource good quality vacuum casting for less than £45-ish per cap (though I think my prototypes were heavier) and don't have space in my workshop for even more equipment so $20 is very reasonable.
my one query is:
Pure silver
Hallmark : 925
You can't have it both ways, so which is it, pure silver, or sterling silver? Not that it makes a massive difference on something like this - I'm just a bit fastidious about such things.

If it could be made in Cherry profile, I would take one at that price.
-
Profile is important here, if it's Cherry I would take a few

i would like oem... if they were oem i would probably buy quite a few... if you could make them different sizes i would buy even more

Would interested on mod set, but depends on the price for the set.
-

-
I would be interested. Definitely.
-

Zinc already costs a ton of money.
Pure silver? Many tons of money.
Not to mention they WILL tarnish and you will be forced to pull them out and clean them regularly.
