Don’t forget keycaps! It’s where the real money is lost.

That set looks like GMK Blue Samurai, which sells new for $150.

Keycaps are expensive but you can easily spend $500 on a keyboard chassis/plate/pcb alone

True. I was mostly thinking about having to buy keycaps aftermarket when the prices double/triple and having to source all the different kits.

Personally, I think I have three times as many keycap sets than I do keyboards.

This might be controversial, but at some point just buy a decent repro on AliExpress.
