Post by: sherryton on Sun, 03 November 2013, 02:23:53: Supposedly... this whole package retails at around $600 to $700 (group buy price). The increased cost is because of the shipping. I do not own the board, but it is a friend's.

hi sherry,

1- does the pcb support full LEDs and cherry mx switches?

2- is the casing a layered-aluminium made?
Title: Re: [FS] King Saver
Post by: AKIMbO on Sun, 03 November 2013, 06:34:43: I'm interested in the pcb and plate and/or the pink alps pcb/plate if someone wants the other items in the package.

Lets work something out!

No, you're thinking of the dksaver.
The kingsaver is fairly recent, and is an alps only TKL custom. I'm not sure of the 'history' of it.

Post by: Neo.X on Sun, 03 November 2013, 15:02:42: Awesome keyboard, too bad I don't have budget now. Could be a perfect Christmas gift. ;)

BTW, what's difference between blue and pink ALPS and white ALPS? I only have one white ALPS, curious to know the difference.

GLWS

Blue alps are lighter, smoother than white alps (with the exception of true complicated white alps...then the difference is just the dye used for the sliders). Pink alps are heavy tactile (very rare).

Thanks. I guess the Pink ALPS makes this keyboard even better.

Hand made buddy! The guy dye sublimated the RGB himself. I am sorry for not putting this earlier.

I am not sure how imperfect they are.
