Title: No accessories with my Filco (straight from Keyboardco)?
Post by: fuzzybaffy on Sun, 26 January 2014, 22:43:45
So, I got a Filco board a couple of weeks ago, straight from Keyboardco (not the "fulfilled by Amazon" program).

But interestingly, the board came with none of the usual accessories that I see in all those youtube unboxing videos: the WASD keycaps, escape key, and/or keycap remover. I remember purchasing a Filco from EK a few years ago, and that came with accessories, too.

Has anyone purchased a Filco straight from Keyboardco (and not the "fulfilled by Amazon" program), and not gotten any accessories as well? Or do you guys think maybe there was an error in my order?

I've not had any Filcos with extras.  A brand new one I got that was manufactured in 2012 only came with the plastic roof protector and a USB->PS2 converter.

AFAIK
depends on the type of FILCO sir, the normal MJ2 doesn't include any extra on the package
only keyboard and the ps/2 adapter

My MJ1 from EK only came with a red padprinted esc and ps/2 adapter, so even a few years ago, they didn't come with anything extra afaik.

^ this. My ninja came with a key puller and other accessories. My basic MJ2's didn't have these. I think that makes up for part of the price difference.
