Where to get these Vortex PBT Caps?
« on: Fri, 18 July 2014, 16:28:48 »
Does anyone know where I can find any of these?

QWERkeys had some a while ago but it was ISO layout only and I want ANSI. Also if anyone can link me to any other dark PBT keycaps with a similar font that'd be great too.

These are the closest I've seen for sale.

Unfortunately, unlike most people on this forum, I really don't like big 'basic' fonts on keycaps :(.

These ones came up on Qwerkeys facebook. I believe they used to sell them. Might be worth asking QwerTim on here or messaging them on FB to see if any are available

We can hopefully get some of these, but depends if we can hit the MOQ they require (100).

Yup! Can get the MOQ much lower for ISO, but for the various layouts, so 5 layouts, MOQ of 30 of each e.g. UK, NOR, FR, DR and IT or something.

Ok :), please let me know if you do get them in!

Oh, and one more question, are they going to be Cherry or OEM profile?

I think when we do go for it, it would be oem.
