$20 keyboard guy for real needs to price himself higher, he's worth way more than that amount. The $80 is another story, you price your board that much for what's basically the same IF not worse than a stock RK61?? This guy is tripping for real.
@@LewisToh I'd honestly say that I would pick the $20 any day of the week. The price-to-value ratio compared to the $135 one is just plain out better but the $135 has my trophy for better aesthetics.
this is the issue with Fivver. people completely undervaluing their work. that $20 keyboard build had to take at least four hours if they lubed the switches and stabs, meaning they probably made less than $5 per hour, which is criminal in my opinion. not even counting the fact fivver probably took a cut of that... so yeah. as a professional creative outside of this youtube stuff, I can tell you that Fivver really devalues freelance work across multiple industries. I wish it was priced more accordingly.
He might be somebody who has a lot of fun building keyboards and considers the Fivver thing a hobby. He doesn't have an excuse or space to build more keyboards for himself, so he builds them for other people, just charging for parts plus a token amount.
@@fwiffo While that could be the case, the issue with that argument is that not every freelancer agrees with that sentiment. Then, that person drives down the price for a custom built keyboard, ruining it for other freelancers. This is a horrible business practice and it hurts entire industries, even beyond fivver. for example, graphic design. "oh, i could pay you your rate, or i could go on fivver and get cheap labor for pennies", then, the overall market price goes down, and people can no longer make a living wage off of their craft.
So how exactly does this work? You still have to give them additional money so they can buy the mechanical keyboard and other parts right? And then they assembled it for you and then they ship a complete keyboard to you? So all this $20 $80 $135 is just for their services and does not include the cost of the keyboard parts?
$20 guy undercharged, $80 guy......Should have payed you for taking that mess,$135 guy is one of those guys who tries to sell a kbd67 lite with PE foam on ebay for $450. Imagine charging extra to foam/tape mode. BRUH those require the least effort and the materials and cost literally pennies per build.
4:26 Interesting, I don't like the sound at all and would have guessed $20 one. Shrug. Guess I just have different tastes and am a noob. Just got my Keychron Q3 today and absolutely love it stock, although I plan to do some mods just for the hell of it and replace the key caps. But I am very satisfied with it. It's the best keyboard I have ever owned and feels amazing to type on.
Hey lewis i have a question. I have been wanting to buy a wireless keyboard but i play alot of fps game not a really competitive player i play casually. So does wireless keyboard have any latency in gaming does it effect in games?
anyone has any idea what board, switches and keycaps the $135 build used? i've been wanting to build a keyboard with a creamy sound, and the $135 build has the closest sound to what i'm looking for, but idk the parts
How does fiverr work? @Lewis toh how did you pay for the parts of the build was it through fiverr or a different payment method? BTW love your videos keep up the good work😁👍
So do you pay them for the parts as well? I know you said you're paying for the service but are they also profitting off the resale of the kb? cause $20 free shipping, BUILT, is way cheaper than buying a rk61 normally.

Hey!!! I built that cheap one!!! Thank you so much for the review!!!!

@ThatRedM3 If you don't mind me asking, how much do your builds typically cost?
@@kateberlyy fr
part of me thinks $20 just enjoys building keyboards and found a way to make sure he didn't have to pay for it, mad respect.
complete zen mode
Bout the only explanation that would make any sense. For 20$ he's underpaid for the effort being put in.
@@CodeXCDM I'm confused, does the price not include the keyboards price? No way you can even get an RK61 for 20 bucks, right?
@@ZenTunE- price only includes building cost

@@coleydotmp4 Oh of course. I didn't say it's a good thing. I'm just saying that's probably *why* his price is so low.
You do know that the modders
price this themselves right?
$20 guy raised his price to $60 so thats good for him
nice
Now I can’t afford it :(
@@scars8165he desserves that money either way.
Damn that 20 dollar keyboard guy did a great job with the keyboard...tbh he should price himself more around 50 dollars.
if im not wrong, he increased to 60 dollars
@@LewisToh I'm happy he's recognizing how much his skills are worth!
@@LewisTohit should be $90
Really fun video concept. Enjoyed this a lot. The $20 build was so great for the work!'
really appreciate it, thank you!!!
Its nice to see Lewis try new things :D
yay
huh wait so the $135 freaking usd is for what just lubing and filming? foam and tape still costs extra?
LOL
The 20$ guy did so well!!
Looking forward to seeing the desk mat video.
definitely doing it
Your content is getting better, you're going somewhere in no time
sheesh thanks man
Woke up to see an upload from you. Excited!
sheesh thank you
Ok charging extra for tape mod is kinda L move
yea
20$ is just addicted to building keebs and keeping price low to build as many as possible so he doesn’t have to buy them himself :)))
my g
The deskmat video will be pure FIRE. Hype
yes
Spencer is the GOAT. Barely covered the cost of his time. I agree with a comment that he just enjoys it and wants to do it but without his own money
Definitely do the desk mat video
yes
cool video, love the sound of the 135 build.
5:01 I just realized that the spacebar keycap is upside down
bro only got 20 dollars and did better than me when i had 200 💀
same Sadge
Plus 150$, don’t forget that.
The $20 set is probably an imitation of the GMK November fog

that is correct
How has nobody clocked the $80 one has an upside down space bar? lmaooooo
flipped spacebar sucjs
Would also be cool if u can explore PCB printing or design of split keyboards
ooo
Spencer needs more appreciation.
yes fr
The algorithm has blessed you

Hey lewis i have a question. I have been wanting to buy a wireless keyboard but i play alot of fps game not a really competitive player i play casually. So does wireless keyboard have any latency in gaming does it effect in games?
its rly minimal nowadays, you shouldn’t feel it honestly
Now do a video of the breakdown!
do those prices include the parts and actual keyboard? there is no way they can? those prices have to be just for labor right?
Just stumbled upon this, my DD is almost the exact same as the $20 lol just with Akko Matcha Greens
anyone has any idea what board, switches and keycaps the $135 build used? i've been wanting to build a keyboard with a creamy sound, and the $135 build has the closest sound to what i'm looking for, but idk the parts
Sammmme
🕯🕯🕯 im manifesting this video popping off for you homie 🕯🕯🕯
thank you
hey!! curious question, what switches did he place on the 135 dollar one??? ty!!
Nobodys finna talk abt the $80 keyboard space bar bein upside down? 🤣
Hey Lewis can you tell me what the 20$ keyboard’s key caps were called?
november fog

Lewis is know you probably wont see this but can you tell me all the mods and parts for the $135 keyboard
really liked the video, fun idea!
thank you
Great Video! What are the switches in the $135 board? They sound super creamy!
If this was like years ago with those fiver videos, I think it will do very good. But it is still a really good video :)
ayy thank u
do you also pay the part or do they pay them cause that is realy cheap
Så the 135 dollars one, did you pay 135 like total or did you pay 135 for the build and had to pay for the switches and keycaps as well?
Great video as always, I would love to know what the mousepad you're using in this video is! :))
its linked in the description :)
$20 is the real mvp

Feels great

I actually have the $20 keycaps in the thumb nail picture but on a ciy tester 68
Yo what are the switches of the $135 keyboard?

What switches are the most expensive one using? i love the sound and want to get something similar
Hey Lewis can you suggest some switch from taobao? I'm trying to make my first keyboard xD
thats tough, prob stick to akko switches!
What keyboard is the $130 one?
Hi, nice video, I liked it
What do you think about split ergonomic keyboards?
hmm never tried one but looks rly cool
The 80$ one is just straight up unbelievably bad lol, didn't even bother to fix the left shift.
ikr :,)
Yo try carousell next time make me part of it :D
Does anybody know what the keycaps on the $20 keyboard are called? I can't find them anywhere.
Moreeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!
yesss
@@LewisToh Thanksssssssssss!!!!
What do you use to hold your keyboards in your background? (And where can we buy one?)
Part 2
No cyap $20 keyboard is way more worth than $135 keyboard and we don’t talk about the $80 keyboard that’s a story for a rainy day 👀
thats a forbidden tale
Just want to know if we want to let other people build we would also have to pay for lubes accessories or only charges they descript
he didnt even put the feet on the right way, like wtf lmao how can you be so bad and still opened a service
agreed
Which Switches are used in the board of CELLARDOORO
akko matcha greens
20 dollar guy is unreal

what mouse pad was that in the video with the koi fish and the girl
how do you even buy 61 jelly blacks for $20
Specs and mods of the keyboard from collardoorq?
matcha greens, ciy tester68, tape, foam mod
Nice content i enjoyed the whole video!!!
thank you!
What where the switches on the most expensive one called?
What keyboard was the 135$ one?!
Sry i dont get it did you get a hole board for 20$ or did you give him a board to mod?
gave all of them a budget of $150
i wanna take them apart and see
That is possible?!
Spencercodie’s keycaps look lovely, anyone know the set?
Wassup Lewis, ur videos are great + nice ur Singaporean like me +go try the keychron c1 it's budget asf

Does anyone know what board is used
80$ dude should've stacked the rubber feet

What switches did Cellar's keyboard have?
