Title: Where can I get PBT only or + POM white keycaps to Sweden?
Post by: Luciqueii on Mon, 25 September 2017, 13:56:13
I wanna buy white PBT keycaps to my K65RGB keyboard I have found these keycaps
but the shipping is the same price as the keycaps so I don't wanna pay 40 USD for shipping...

Someone have any ideas where I can get white PBT keycaps to Sweden without paying overkill price?

Thanks for helping out all in advance!

Do you have ISO or ANSI layout?

If you're feeling adventurous (description says ANSI but the pictures show ISO layout) you can get this set for 99kr and free shipping: https://www.banggood.com/White-Dual-Shot-PBT-Translucent-104-KeyCap-backlit-for-Cherry-MX-Keyboard-p-1084996.html

ANSI is US layout while European use ISO layout. Here's a nice comparison: http://www.keybotypo.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/ISO-vs-ANSI-min-1024x487.png  Look at enter key and left shift especially. The set you linked looks like it has extra keys to fit both ANSI and ISO. The set I linked seems to have both type of enter keys, but only the wide ANSI left shift so it might not fit if you have a Swedish keyboard.

Also, in case you didn't know PBT is the type of plastic some keycaps are made of, the alternative is ABS which will get shiny after heavy use.
