If that means they have all arrived here in Oz than it's good.  Just make sure the goods are shipped as soon as possible to everyone who has paid.

Let us know if and when anymore fancy "Filco" Housings are up for sale.  It seems they all disappear before you can even choose which casing you want, I just hope the ones that got chosen are enjoying their installation on their keyboards.

Yes, it seems to me that the market does not respond positively to the custom case products. It's not surprising to see Filco stop selling it in near future.

It's weird that it happened.  I thought naturally that some coloured cases that were released would have everyone jump on them, like it did here - because when I was ready to place an order - all the cases I was interested in were gone.

Filco isn't stupid because they can see the market is interested in new product because their competitors have all jumped onto the coloured case bandwagon and moving stock.  Why they had given up is quite unusual.

Nope, no tracking. The tracking option cost $60 -> $67 AUD, ridiculously expensive

One set has come in, beautiful black beauties that they are.  So much more better in person than relying on pics alone.

This person is honest and you can rely on his word here on Geekhack, thanks joneslee85  :thumb: .

FILCO says "very dark brown".
I think this is TAA. http://www.keycapsdirect.com/abscolors.php
SP says TAA as brown. http://www.keycapsdirect.com/inventorypdfs/SpacebarInventory.pdf

i like them, will try to post some pics on the weekend when i can get normal light in the room (when i come home from work it's already dark and the artificial light doesn't do them justice).

they're in fact very dark brown, i noticed this when putting them on my black filco case.

the profile si so high, i had to get a wrist rest to have a comfortable position while gaming, but i love the material and quality. still not 100% sure whether i will keep them as a daily driver, dunno if SA is the way, although i have 2 more SA sets on the way (calm depths and penumbra).

all in all, the quality is amazing.

joneslee, did you happen to purchase any extra sets of these that you'd be willing to sell?

I totally missed this GB, and I'm kicking myself for it.

Don't be shy ever about mentioning it here.  Also if any more Filco Coloured Cases are available that would be good as well.  I still want to get 2 extra textures and colours for a 104 and a TKL.

Filco cases also work with the phantom, and with the lack of cases, I think it's a good idea.

For anyone still looking for these caps, I was able to purchase them directly through Diatec and have them forwarded to me through Tenso. They're still available, It was about $73 total for me including the Tenso service fee, just thought I'd let anyone know who missed out.
