Works for me. Added and the cart showed up right away.

But i think the star of the show is the DK9008 at that low price. $100 shipped to my place. Probably a stock clearance for the G2 to come in

Ya I think Google Chrome was effing things up for me. What's so s[pecial about that keyboard btw?

crowstar · « **Reply #701 on:** Sat, 23 April 2011, 05:57:22 »

What about the import duty?

Gfresh404 · « **Reply #702 on:** Sat, 23 April 2011, 06:25:04 »

Does anyone have a Chinese keyboard??

Is there any difference between that and a US one besides layout and appearance of keycaps??

kaiserreich · « **Reply #703 on:** Sat, 23 April 2011, 06:40:21 »

No difference, it will work like a normal keyboard.

Gfresh404 · « **Reply #704 on:** Sat, 23 April 2011, 06:45:29 »

Cool thanks.

Just bought a Filco Tenkeyless w/ MX Brown switchs for $134.22 Shipped - not bad.

Didn't feel like waiting the The Keyboard Company to refill their stock on Amazon. Anyone have any idea how long shipping usually takes?

kaiserreich · « **Reply #705 on:** Sat, 23 April 2011, 07:10:30 »

Funny, I thought they have english keycaps for the Tenkeyless, or maybe you just want the special flavoured keycaps?
For shipping time, just read the pages in front, probably 7days for North America. It takes about a day for the paypal payment to clear on their side, and then another until the tracking number that they give can be tracked by Taiwanese EMS

They do - I'd just prefer some blank ones. And maybe some colored.

And appreciate the shipping time.

I hope it's okay if my first post on these boards is asking a question

I'm curious as to how PCHome generally ships. I live in Canada and, if they ship via something like UPS or Fedex I'm going to get badly hurt with the crappy fees those companies charge...

I can deal with potential duty charges, but not brokerage fees. I did some searches in this topic but didn't find anything.

Going to probably buy a Filco with browns since I can't seem to find anywhere else that ships to Canada (besides ArmyGroup but they don't seem to have them in stock right now).

-Edit- Also, just to make absolutely sure I've got the right one:

http://global.pchome.com.tw/?mod=item&func=exhibit&IT_NO=DCAH0X-A50476493&SR_NO=DCAH23&ROWNO=5&tm=u

That is the correct Filco keyboard (full size) with MX Brown switches, correct? (For some reason Chrome kept dumping me to the local, not global, PCHome site after I did a search, so I have to manually find that keyboard and the page is different from their local listing)

Orphagn · « **Reply #708 on:** Sat, 23 April 2011, 15:57:56 »

Yes, that is a fullsize Filco with Browns (Tea axis). They ship using EMS which is pretty fast. It took 3-4 days to get to California when I ordered my keyboards.

They ship EMS, which means that if Canada Post charges you what they should (by law) you would pay $8 brokerage plus your local provincial and federal (or harmonized) taxes. Many Canadians here have had their shipments arrive from overseas without being assessed any charges. For once, I was included in this lucky group earlier this year. I usually never get anything over $25 allowed through without charges ($19.99 is the threshold written in law).

spronkey · « **Reply #713 on:** Mon, 25 April 2011, 06:22:08 »

Bah

Looks like they've sold out or stopped selling them on global.pchome.com.tw yet again.

Damnit! They're even sold out of cheap English ducky browns

MissileMike · « **Reply #714 on:** Mon, 25 April 2011, 06:33:35 »

I probably bought the last english ducky 1087 brown I bet. 85 dollars was too cheap to pass up.

kaiserreich · « **Reply #715 on:** Mon, 25 April 2011, 06:49:18 »

The 1087 still have english available. Just the DK9008 and DK1008 are out

MartZink · « **Reply #716 on:** Mon, 25 April 2011, 08:33:12 »

Herro!

Is there a way to turn an english layout keyboard into a swedish layout one?

Was thinking about buying a board from there if I can make it work with swedish.

Or a Chinese if that works.

Zamorph · « **Reply #717 on:** Tue, 26 April 2011, 02:49:33 »

I cant seem to finish my purchase on PC home. I got some funky different address screen other than the one shown o.o
is there a difference btwn pchome and pchome global? cuz one has filcos and the other doesnt.
EDIT: Seems there is xD thanks

kip69 · « **Reply #718 on:** Tue, 26 April 2011, 07:16:49 »

So I went looking for a mouse and mike row phone today in the computer market. Thought I would check if they still have the filco stuff. They do, about a few of every mec board I could think of. And.
And...

Reds! Now I want a red. Can anyone lend me $4000nt? (about $140us) If you want one I can ship it to ya, for cost +5%. Or if we can get 10 orders I will ship them for cost (as they will give me one free). I have as yet no idea what the cost would be to ship to you, but Taiwan has reasonable shipping rates.

Bad cell phone pics, I hope work.

i already know what it emans i used google translate before i just want to know if they will start shipping anytime soon or has it already started shipping.

kip69 · « **Reply #722 on:** Sun, 22 May 2011, 06:55:10 »

Taiwan uses a slightly different CC system. Its not so tied to the banks. It means, I am inferring, that they are waiting until the funds are transferred into their account before they ship. You have to wait a bit longer.

suntorytime · « **Reply #723 on:** Mon, 23 May 2011, 00:14:10 »

I had a good experience purchasing from pchome, no keyboards but all camera gear. AFAIK they don't send out emails when your item(s) ship, you need to check yourself using the link given in the pchome shopping guide.

Do they no longer sell Filco's on this website?

Arcanius · « **Reply #727 on:** Mon, 27 June 2011, 11:46:26 »

No, they don't. You can still buy Filco's at armygroup, but EMS will cost you.

That websites Taiwanese, right? Don't wanna get confused, lol.

Also, any clue how much it'd cost me to ship a Filco over to UK? I'm not good with all this stuff so sorry for being somewhat annoying. D:

alaricljs · « **Reply #729 on:** Mon, 27 June 2011, 12:01:09 »

To the UK? Why not just use The KeyboardCo ?

Arcanius · « **Reply #730 on:** Mon, 27 June 2011, 12:07:55 »

Shipping to US is about $40-60, I'm guessing to the UK would be about the same price. That's, what, 25-35 quid?

I thought it would be cheaper this way. I've always been aware of KeyboardCo, just wanted to look out for a better deal before I make the final purchase. I did want a full-sized pink or white keyboard though as my girlfriend said she wouldn't mind me having one, but I guess I'ma go for standard black. *sadface*

I tried one of them yesterday in the store. I like my shiny new red CM storm Rapid fire much much better. But They are cheep.

RenoFox · « **Reply #743 on:** Fri, 04 November 2011, 09:53:35 »

Wish I knew about this when they still had Filco with cherry MX brown.
Now I'm considering either going with ducky DK-1008, DK 9008G2 or maybe wait until they have Filco's (brown swich) available for overseas shipping again.
Only issue I have is I'm from New Zealand so every other site charges about as much for shipping as for the keyboard itself lol.
The $10usd shipping from this site is godly I must say.

Ohh does anyone know much about the 2 Ducky boards, DK-1008 and DK 9008G2. I mean why does the DK9008G2 cost like $30 more then the DK-1008?

Did you get there from the international website?

Because if I remember correctly, I had the same problem when ordering my ducky. Make sure you get there from the global website of pchome.

AKIMbO · « **Reply #749 on:** Tue, 08 November 2011, 12:22:37 »

So how long does it usually take for the keyboards to get delivered to a buyer in the USA who buys from PCHome? Rough estimate...two weeks, one week, etc?
