Title: Please help a newbie pick right mechanical keyboard on a Chinese site
Post by: zerou.se7en on Mon, 24 March 2014, 02:22:25
Hello, I'm looking for a Keycool 108II full illuminated with Cherry MX Black. Since I live South East Asia, taobao seems the best site for me to purchase this keyboard, but the biggest problem is I can't read Chinese and there are so many options (types of Cherry MX switch, LED color,...)  :confused: So please tell me the Chinese characters of Cherry MX Blue, Brown, Red, Black; "full illuminated"; LED color. Or if I use Google Translate, how those will be translated to English?

Thank you.

Cherry mx brown: 茶轴；Blue:青轴；Black:黑轴；Red：红轴
White LED backlight:白色背光

Taobao usually ships only within China. If you ship to other countries, need to pay extra shiping cost.

Why don't you try Aliexpress? Maybe you'll find there what you want.

Yes, of course, choice is not so big as with taobao, but all sellers on aliexpress provide international shipping.
