Title: Maxkeyboard ISO Layout Custom Backlight Cherry MX Keycap Set
Post by: Judicator on Thu, 06 October 2016, 14:03:11

Anyone bought this set?
I'd like to since ISO Italian backlit layouts are impossible to buy on this planet and that seems my only chance to get it.

It would cost about 60USD + S&H, definitely not cheap, but honestly I don't konw where to look at else.
Are these sets any good?
I'm new to keycaps set and mechanical keyboards so any help is greatly appreceiated.
Thanks.

They're like regular ABS laser etched keycaps that you would find a backlit keycap: Corsair, Cooler Master, Razer, Ducky, etc.  Matte/smooth finish but retains finger oils and the black layer will wear out. 

Here's an example (top function keys): http://i.imgur.com/Lgs9ZCx.jpg

So apparently they look good but don't last and get dirty.
No luck and no caps for me then.
Thanks or the info. :)
