Take a look at Rosewill keyboards, those go on sale fairly often on Newegg.

I am not sure about the shipping to singapore. But i guess you could take a look at Ducky and Filco.

What's the difference between ducky to filco? shipping to SG from newegg is troublesome. Didn't wont accept SG credit card.

Over here the price of rosewill is roughly 110+ USD.

Kinda headache over what to get.

If you're going to "mod" the board in the future via "soldering" customize switches, etc, then get the filco..

Otherwise, Get anything else that's cheaper with the exception of VORTEX//KBT//iONE//DAS

I am currently using the 6gv2 and I am very happy with it the only problem is the layout. If you want to join in any of the group buy's here you will have a problem because of the huge f*ck-off enter key and the oddly small right shift.

unless they have some unforeseeable downside (like they're actually made of cream cheese cunningly disguised as ABS)

What is 'soldering'? Basically it just for my gaming use. If i wanted LED i should look for ducky shine II?
