At $199 shipped they are not cheap, but I understand that these are rare and some people just want pink for whatever reason. (Sifo comes to mind?)
Most of the modding can be done on your own once you break through the psychological barriers.

Did they always come with pink caps? Thought they were stock white.

Some say this is the key/ gift for acceptance of the hobby from one's significant other.

They certainly look like Filco legends.
"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
