Where to buy keycaps?

skyride · 13 Oct 2011, 21:05

Hey guys.

I've been keeping an eye on geekhack the last few weeks, but it appears it's very US-centric. Just found this forum and from what I've heard it's a bit more EU orientated.

Anyway, I was wondering where in EU I should be looking to get keycaps? Short of just looking on ebay, I can't seem to find anything. In particular I'm looking to replace the 0-9 keys on my keyboard (MX Cherry's).

Cheers, Adam

Well, it really depends what kind of caps youre looking for. Flashy new stuff is hard to get other then on ebay or taobao. You will be able to get a lot of interesting old stuff here or on ebay, doubleshots, etc. Custom caps are hard to come by, the best bet is SP.

Looking for something like that?

I could sell you original cherry double shots (black with white legends) for the numpad. PM me if you're interested!

Heh, not quite kbdfr. I've ordered a the blue's of these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/330620926977? ... 1497.l2649 Unfortunately having an ISO UK set, I'll still be stuck with my stock "\" key.

I'm looking to get a matching orange set to go with them. not the numpad, the row 4(???) number row that has backspace at the end.
