About Me
View my website at: https://keyboards.es/
Mechanical keyboards became a hobby for me with the purchase of my first (modern) mechanical keyboard, a Thermaltake Poseidon Z with Kailh Brown switches. I did not much like it, so I decided to try out another Tt Poseidon that had Kailh Blue switches. I did not much like it either as it felt very inconsistent to me, so I decided to get a higher end mechanical keyboard which was a Ducky Shine 3 with Cherry MX Blue switches. It became my favorite keyboard for some time until I saw a Unicomp Model M listed for sale brand new on eBay. I decided to try it out to see what the hype around the Model M was, but unfortunately the keyboard did not work so I returned it. I then found a Chicony KB-5161 at Goodwill for $20 which contained SKCM Blue switches and it became my new favorite as they were smoother than the Cherry MX in the DS3.
Proxying
I serve as a proxy for the United States, China, and Japan. If you need an item from any of these countries and do not otherwise have access to them, I can forward the items to you for a small fee. For more information, visit here: http://www.keyboards.es/proxying.html
Keyboards
It should be noted that I may have owned more than one of the same board and if they are not remarkable, I did not include duplicates in the list. The only duplicates I include are for boards with a significant enough change to make a difference such as color or switch type. The full list of all keyboards I own/have owned are:
