Title: Ti Attack on Titan Keycaps

um....$800? Is that the real price or does imsto just do that to stop you from buying until he picks a final price?

It is feasible that they are $200 each. $800 for the set.

What happened that they doubled in price ? Someone corner the titanium market or something.
