    So the original price for the board was $54 but they increased it by $10 with the reasoning:
    "Some have certainly seen that the prices for the V-Series board have increased, but shipping is now cheaper, offering an advantage for anyone who can claim keyboards as work material for tax purposes, because shipping is not taken into account.
    Since some people cant do basic math the price in the end will be the same"
    Still not a bad deal for the price, but yeah, I was filming with the $54 in mind, just wanted to clarify.

    Keychron's pre lubed built in stabilizers were always great. I've had 2 different models previously, a Q1 and a K something, both stabs were properly lubed and felt great out of the box.

      Hey there! As a fellow tech enthusiast, I totally get the struggle of keeping our setups clean. Have you considered trying out the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule? It's a compact device that combines vacuuming and blowing capabilities, making it great for maintaining a spotless environment. The powerful blowing feature could come in handy for quickly cleaning your keyboard. Plus, it has a bunch of other cool features like multiple tubes, high-quality filters, and efficient storage. Definitely worth checking out!

  • @SHENRAR

    I am not surprised with the price. At the end of the day, its just a piece of plastic and the prices for custom keyboards were not related with the actual build process or components, but with the limited demand for them. Since the keyboard space has expanded so much in the last couple of years, many people that have never got into them are now interested on having something that is not a cheap keyboard that came with their pc. So economy of scale comes into place and production numbers increase, decreasing the price per unit manufactured. Keychron was one of the first companies to go "mainstream" and it shows as they can now offer something really good for a reasonable price (because, lets face it, 400 or more for a keyboard was just stupid). And you can see this increase in popularity as well in mainstream companies like Logi making mechanical boards when just a couple years ago were obsessed with the "silent" laptop style keyboards. Its all good news for us enthusiasts and for the general public that now will be able to experience what it is not to type on the lowest quality product ever built.

I've run out of people to build for at this point anyway, so it'll likely never get a purchase from me, despite how good it looks for the price.
