Title: What would be easier to find?
Post by: Air tree on Sat, 16 November 2013, 23:02:00
Well i'm thinking of picking up a 55g 87u, and i was wondering do you guys think it would be easier to find The Grey and white keycaps found on the white version for the black version i want to get (Because those colours just look amazing) Or would it easier to buy a white 87u and buy a black case?

And i think this is the right section?

buy both, swap caps and sell the board u dont want.

or find somebody that'll trade you keycaps that want the opposite of what you want.

it'll be hard to find somebody that'll sell the case only.

I can't really shell out 500$ or so on two boards right now. Even if i sell one soon after. And if i do try to get a black case for the white one i will probably trade my white case for a black case. So that will attract more people who want a white case.


So it's either down to finding someone to trade me a black case for my white case or someone to trade me their white and grey keycaps for my black ones.

Wish me luck! I'm getting my realforce next month.

My first real keyboard. Going to be exiting! Quite a strange choice for a keyboard newbie but it's great start i would say  :cool:
