Working in the injection moulding industry. I can confirm the main thing you're paying for is limited availability/limited runs. Abs vs pbt and even manufacturing quality to an extent is not the biggest price differential. That will be a few pence/cents per key cap at most. But limited runs can be the biggest difference. When you divide tooling costs and press time into each part, a 50k single shot tool or 100k double shot tool set (rough estimates) with colour variations with setup costs and small run times etc is where the money adds up for the manufacturer ROI.

@nickglover 2 жыл бұрын

So what you're saying is that they are intentionally making them available for limited times so that they can charge more rather than keeping them around so that they can charge less. That is, artificially inflating demand and price at the same time so that they can justify the absurd prices. Hmmm.

@benjimc1 2 жыл бұрын

@@nickglover yes and no. The manufacturer will estimate demand and base their runs on this. At the end of the day you have a cost of investment, so if you can't invest for 100k sets but can only afford 1k sets then so be it.

@nickglover 2 жыл бұрын

I suppose that also doesn't really explain why sets that are normally stocked, like basically every MT3 set on Drop, are so expensive. Those should have the better ROI, and yet...

@benjimc1 2 жыл бұрын

@@nickglover again you can look at it from a pure material and process aspect and these sets should cost no more than about £10. You put a price on your brand though separately based on what you think of your engineering/design input and what that is worth. When you talk Automotive (segment I work in) , you are not looking at 100k more car from an audi Q5 to a range rover vogue. But people pay that for the perceived quality/luxury of the range rover.

@nickglover 2 жыл бұрын

Yeah, I think that's really what I'm saying. People want to justify the prices, but really it's just that they can get away with charging that. If we all stopped buying, they'd probably lower prices. But it's a weird inflated market we've all accepted, so it continues.

IMO, the best modern keycaps are on Leopold keyboards. THICC doubleshot PBT. We all know why we like THICCness, the doubleshot lettering means it will last forever, and the pbt is SIGNIFICANTLY less prone to shine than ABS. The build quality and legends are superb They do have two drawbacks: 1) Since they only make them for basically one layout (Their different board layouts is just some sort of cutdown version of their 100% layout), compatibility is an issue. And 2) they don't come in many colorways. But if you don't mind those things, I highly recommend them I wish whoever made the keycaps for Leopolds would sell sets of these keycaps, with additional functionality and colorways
