If there is an SSK left, I maybe interested in that!

What would one inquire about, exactly?
Pricing? Custom Keycaps? Availability?

I'd do legwork (well, compose some well written emails using my experience with the Newegg keycaps), if I knew what was involved.

I bought a set of Octopus keycaps from newegg for my brother for christmas

They seem to visually match the ones in the picture. The quality is actually quite high (I was surprised), and it was $10 for 8 keycaps, an excellent price.

I desperately want APL keycaps now. They will be my eternal quest!

If you're interested in more crappy cellphone pictures, I spent the past day sorting out my keycaps. The good news is lots of variety, aside from the crazy amount of white on black double shoots. Bad news is lots of variety :lol:
Included I saw:

Green in White, Red in White, Pink in White double ...

Excuse the potato pictures and pink boat in the background (my little sister is a DIVA)

I pulled out a couple of what I'm going to call "novelty" keycaps (phantom smileys, some pink symbol I don't recognize, a poorly kerned GeekHack, etc) as well as a container of what has to be two to three ...

I got mine, and safe to say - it is for sure a crap bag. I'll post a couple of pictures in the picture thread when I finish sorting the damn things!

I bought a pack of these caps (Good ol' US of A!), and they should be coming in the mail today. I'll be sorting through them and see if i can find anything interesting this afternoon.

This seems like a really cool project!

I'd be interested, perhaps.

I play a fair amount - mostly badly

I'll PM, but if they are due after Friday I'm in for 1

I'm interested in buying a board.

Alps appears to be a complex beast, and I remember posts not too long ago dealing with identifying the different kinds of switches based on tabs on the switches themselves. Thanks for taking so much time writing that out - it really helps me understand the situation.

Will any boards with the ...

Hey,

I'm relatively new to the Mechanical Keyboard scene (I've had a Das Professional since May of last year), and I'm interested in picking up a board with a different brand of switch (besides Cherry MX). I think Alps is the logical next step, but have no idea where to start. I saw the Siig ...

I'm sad pay day came late and I'm stuck at the bottom of the list
CURSE MY INABILITY TO BUDGET MY FUNDS!

It's no "marketing trick", it's just a new product from cherry.

A new product, but not new switch. That's what I meant with marketing trick.

I as a consumer, would probably buy a board of this new exciting "purple" switch, and I would be pretty angry when I found out it was actually not a new ...

One with browns!
