Just a note for anyone in Australia thinking about this, PCCG sells these for $149 plus whatever postage ($17 last time I bought a keyboard from them) = $166.

Compare that to Massdrop $145 + $30 (approx.) postage = $175.

Even if they reach the next tier of $140, it still works out to $170 - slightly more.

And this is assuming it is AUD, which it probably isn't, so if Massdrop prices are USD then it would cost even more.

Plus it would take longer to get.

PCCG has them in stock and usually ships the same, or next, day.

Just sayin' :P
"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

More than you might think.

Shipping to Canada is $27. I put in for one at the lowest price anyway.
