Hi Sam.  Welcome to Geekhack and yay for more keycaps collectors!  :)   My only advise is if you spend more than $100 for one keycap then you're doing it wrong! lol

Welcome to Geekhack!

You are at the top of a long slippery slope ;)
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
