Places to Buy Topre Caps
« on: Thu, 06 February 2014, 14:42:06 »
I've noticed that Elitekeyboards and Bingecap offer Topre key caps.  Is there anywhere else I can look?  I know that there are some group buys that go for Topre key caps, but I'm a little confused about how to approach those since I don't fully understand all the "keyboard insider" lingo if you will.

There are these on eBay.

GasMask keycaps sells them, but they are currently out of stock.

There are also Bro Caps.

Wow those ones on eBay are absurdly expensive.  Must be because they're made by PFU.  The others are cool though.  Definitely gonna pick up a couple Bro Caps when he has his next sale  :)  Thanks for the info!

i dont think PFU or Topre realizes how much money they are not making by not selling caps.

don't expect to 'pick them up'.  you have to win the drawing to get a chance to buy a cap or two.  brocaps is not a store.

There will be instructions once the sale is mentioned.

Ya don't underestimate the demand, the last sale was literally over in 2 seconds! Not really surprising since they are awesome.

2 seconds?  So the odds are basically like winning the lottery that you're going to be browsing their vendor forum and see that the sale is up and respond within that time period.

The last sale was announced ahead of time, a time was given and shortly before the given sale time the email address to order from was posted.

gas masks are really easy to get.  if you're not like 15min late, you're guaranteed one pretty much

Elite has been the best place to find basic sets like modifiers and WASD clusters that I've found. If you're looking for Bros or something, patience.
