Hello,
After a long time looking at many of the beautiful custom keycap sets (retro, dolch, granite, etc) I decided to get a keyboard without backlighting and focus on finding a keycap set I like. I'm mainly looking for something with a nice, clean, somewhat retro feel with a larger, centered legend - like a Dolch set or the recent Retro (C-64) style set. I was a long time Commodore user when I was a kid so these sort of sets just really connect with me.
What I find amazing is that it feels impossible to find anything in stock or available other than blank keycaps and cheap or midrange ABS caps.
Some of these sets are so appealing and popular that they instantly sell in the classified yet for reasons I cannot understand, they are only available in limited run group buys.
Even outside of the full sets, a lot of the various sellers will show you a huge catalog of keycaps that are mostly out of stock and unavailable.
I can't figure out this market - is it just so small that no company is willing to take a risk and make a continually available Dolch style keycap set or do regular runs?
I feel like I'm taking crazy pills - help me understand this.
Thanks
