Then stop buying the crappy ones. Like with anything else, you get what you pay for.



That’s rude. 10 years ago I could buy a $75-100 keyboard that would last 6 years. Now the same money gets me something that lasts 6 months so I have to spend $270 to get one that’s decently made. Old $20 keyboards from thrift stores and the drug store used to last me 5-10 years. But yeah, everyone should spend $250+ or else they are chumps


Leopold. $109. One of the best boards you can get.

It's not rude to point out that you impulsively bought low end stuff and expected it to be better just because it was "mechanical." Lemons and garbage exist in every product category.
