Or buy a white Leopold for $100-110 and add on $40 of keycaps down the road if/when your keys become distressingly shiny.
Thing is, any and all plastic will eventually show wear. Certain kinds will hang onto the characters longer, like lasered keys, or even permanently, like doubleshots, but plastic turns shiny. It's a sad truth and I'm not aware of any keycap tech that can avoid it forever.
That said, buying $40 of the best keycaps possible for a very good $100 isn't a bad investment at all.
Only thing with the Leopold: it's got Cherry stabilizers rather than Costar, so your modifier keys and space will feel different. Most people don't mind. . . some think it's the worst thing in the history of the universe.

Edit: Hell, get a Rosewill RK-9000 off of Newegg or Amazon for ~$100-110 and you'll even have Costar-style stabilizers and a very effective, quality Filco clone for $50 less. Still might have issues with keycaps down the line, but now your savings can buy you better ones if and when you decide it's worthwhile. Which you might not, really.
Point being, even though I love Filcos with all my heart and soul, that doesn't make them the be-all end-all of keyboards. Just very, very good
