That’s great news. You’ll definitely have to give us a mini review when you get the caps.

MTNU fans rejoice:
Also! I’ve just installed the Tea Egg RAMA CAPS from zFrontier on my Class80 - and to be frank, I’m fairly impressed so far. Looking at them, I’d expected to have a significant reduction in WPM while I adjust, but no - they feel surprisingly natural despite the narrow, rounded faces and I hit my standard pace first try.
No obvious quality issues of any kind that I can see, aside from a minor scuff on one key from the box. Legends look clean and consistent and they all appear to sit nice and straight on the switches. There’s a little more gap between the keys than the MTNU I had on here before.
Here’s some really bad pictures from my cheap phone for now - I’ll be writing up a more detailed basic review and taking some photos with a real camera in the near future:

If I saw this photo posted without context I would be racking my brain to figure out what it was. Those caps look really cool on the Class80!
I see what you mean about the spacing. They do look a bit “gappy.” That would only be an issue if you didn’t particularly like the color of the plate that was showing from below.

I will say it looks a bit weird on this board from some angles since I currently have baby-blue colored switches underneath. (Keygeek MZ Z1s - they’re “budget” switches at 35 cents apice but they sound and feel great! “Marbly” as advertised.)
There’s someone selling 93 Melodics for a really good price on the mechmarket discord. Schengen only, but people can sometimes be convinced : - )
Never mind, this isn’t near as good of a deal as I thought, I think I was mixing up different switches in my mind. Initially thought it was like 1/4 of full price.
Novelkeys is doing a DCS version of Chladni - I love these colors and the novs are so cool

I hadn’t heard anything about this, but I’m all in. Does anyone know about other vendors? I’m only seeing it listed on KBDFans and Thoccexchange
So, from the link provided below, it appears the US vendor is Goddsson Designs. I’ve not heard of them before

I like these color ways, but they really should be called DCS Hard to Photograph Accurately.
Whenever I get a red on black set, it looks different in every picture.
Novelkeys is doing their discount mystery switch thing again.
$10 for a box of 90 - 11 cents / switch. Nice!

For people in the US hoping to get some PBT KLP Lame, but didn’t feel like rolling the dice on tariffs, it looks like Typeractive is stocking them!

Hey guys new here so I thought I would share this IMO best budget baller keyboard for under 30$ usd its a hexgears e2s pro, has a lot of the features the more expensive keyboards have for a fraction of the price (US only) it wont let me share the link but im sure youll be able to find it pretty easy its sold directly by hexgears/hyeku (same brand just depends on what country youre in)
NovelKeys has three CLASSIC-TKL colors (Tempest Blue, Regolith Gray, Ironstone Orange) on clearance sale for $50 each. Fantastic deal that beats NK’s 10th anniversary sale by $10.

Feel like a sucker for buying each of these at full price, but they’re fun keyboards

I bought the glow-in-the-dark versions as a gift for my boys and I was very impressed with them. Much more than I’d expected to be. I figured they’d be fun, but feel a little cheap. Not at all and they build up into a very solid keyboard.

I kind of feel the same for everything I’ve ever bought at full or near-full price that is then discounted, keyboard hobby or not

Nuphy doing a collab with Oblotzky to bring Oblivion to their new (to me, anyway) mid-height sculpted profile. Says they’re PBT dye-sub.
