I guess for people who would like to customize the colour of their keys, mix and match or just themed gaming stations. Or replacement for damaged/worn out paint on caps.jurassic98 wrote: ↑ OK I still don't get all these lose key set... What do they do? and why it worth of any value at all?

People spend $200+ on keycap sets that are technically inferior to the one in the OP, and sometimes another $100 or so for modifiers, all because of the sound they make, how they feel and how pretty they look. Not uncommon to see $500+ keyboards.jurassic98 wrote: ↑ OK I still don't get all these lose key set... What do they do? and why it worth of any value at all?

Look and feel. Key caps are what you touch, and so the surface texture matters. The fit and finish matter as well; when you touch the keys (not pressing on them, but just resting your fingers on them) there's sound from the surface interaction (keyboard ASMR)...and then there's also the sound from the switches as well.jurassic98 wrote: ↑ OK I still don't get all these lose key set...

Not much reason behind it other than look and feel, keyboard people are crazy.

What's the best place to buy keyboards and keycaps since we're in Canada? All the good stuff from the US makes this hobby even more expensive for us Canadians due to shipping and feeskimwoobingsu wrote: ↑ I'm 12 keyboards deep and have been giving family keyboards in order to justify new purchases.
