FILCOs back on PCHOME and DK-9008s going for NT$2590
« on: Sat, 23 April 2011, 05:17:06 »
As title.

So FILCOs are making a comeback, but the shocker is the prices for the DK-9008 at PCHOME. Thats $90. Even have blank duckies in stock.

This is totally insane price for the Ducky

Try to add Filco's to your cart - cause I can't.

Nevermind: Google Translate was ****ing things up for some reason.

Filco Tenkeyless MX Cherry Brown was only $134 after all was said and done. Not the best price but since they're all of a sudden hard to find - that's pretty damn good.

PCHome prices are great and their shipping is fantastic. Took me like 4 business days(Chicago) to get a Filco from them when they had the $10 shipping deal (normal shipping).

This was a few months ago ;) They JUST got them back in stock at their "global" site. But yeah, I'd recommend them, just make sure to get your order right ;]

I second this; took me 5 days to get my G80-3494 from Taiwan. Could be cheaper/faster than an Amazon Filco with super saver shipping!!

Bought a DK-9008 Brown with Blank keys. I don't care how much people say they suck.
For this price, it's a real bargain

Hey guyz, the Cherry G80-1865 with MX Reds and NKRO is now only $162 shipped to the US!

This is a good deal:

PCB-mounted so very easy to try new switches on this board without re-soldering!

Thanks for the feedback guys. Would you happen to know if the English version of the Filco Tenkeyless includes the extra colored keys and keycap remover?

It seems like all other Tenkeyless have them pictured except for the Eng. version with MX Browns. Even the Chinese version shows em. And tea-axis means Brown right?

Am I right in saying that there are no Filco Majestouch Tenkeyless Linear R (Cherry MX Red) on PCHome at the current time? Not sure if they are even listed since I've clicked on most of the ones I could see when searching so apologies if they are but I'm not seeing it.

You are correct. Only MX Red board I could find was a Cherry branded one. They do have this keyboard at The Keyboard Company tho

Do not forget about this
http://shopping.pchome.com.tw/?m=index&f=activity&ac=AC00025187

Basically says any transactions above NT$3000 using Paypal gets a NT$300 store credit that is going to be credited into your account based on the dates that the website says.
Store Credit can be used after these dates

Purchases between 3/18-3/31, store credit is activated on 4/15
4/1-4/30 間的交易,現金積點統一於 5/14 回饋, 5/15 生效。
5/1-5/17 間的交易,現金積點統一於 6/14 回饋, 6/15 生效。

I'm too lazy to translate the remaining words, but they give the same meaning

So, a $10 store credit. Kinda lame unless you plan to order more than one item.

(Basically it would pay your shipping on the second item).

Is it limited time?
Maybe I mistranslated, but from what I understand, buy now, wait till the middle of next month and you get your store credit. Doesn't say when it expires

Sweet, will order them!  The description says click so that's a good sign, plus the model number FKBN87MC/EB
 should be blues.  The pics show the black board though!

Just to help you guys out here:

Traditional Chinese (Taiwan, Hong Kong) | Simplified Chinese (China) | English
紅軸 | 红轴 | Red Axis
茶軸 | 茶轴 | Brown Axis
青軸 | 青轴 | Blue Axis
黑軸 | 黑轴 | Black Axis
白軸 | 白轴 | White Axis

where the axis indicates the stems (or shafts) and therefore is that particular cherry

There's this thing called "Search"

It's a pretty cool feature, you should try it some time

Edit: you'd actually have to go to Taiwan for that - on their global shipping site they seem to have removed all their Filco brand products - I find it a little hard to believe that all their FIilco stuff sold out,  but you never know. I would keep checking over the next couple of weeks to see if they have replenished their stock.

On a brighter note - THANK GOD i didn't hesitate to order my Tenkeyless MX Brown

i prefer the keys on the ducky over the filco personally, but the filco is without a doubt a better built board.  that said, the 900x boards are head and shoulders better than the 1087, which i would not touch.

wow, are ducky 1087s that bad? lol
