OOH! Hebrew mechanical keyboard red letters! Dyesub?

I’m sure we have Jews on this forum. That keyboard looks darn good and (if really mechanical) is definitely not expensive. BIN at $39 free shipping? If I needed to type something in Hebrew even once a month, it’s a good deal!

Link?
"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

I would expect it to be pad printed rather than dyesub. Not sure about the switches, but despite the "mechnical" tag, there's a decent chance it's a RD.

that's the main concern I'm sure anyone would have

ebay sellers have certain weird definitions of clicky and mechanical, and their definitions tend to be the type that inflate their prices.  :p :p :p

99% chance it is a rubberdome, and I say about 80% chance the keycaps aren't MX compatible even. Besides they are just laser and pad printing and all the rows are the same profile.

Yeah, I agree. That thing's probably a rubber dome. I might be willing to buy it for a dollar.

they look like normal hebrew language layout keys to me, but I do agree the font is interesting.
