I honestly wish this stuff was not so expensive, would be neat to have a tricked out mech keyboard with artisan keycaps.

Some of these Moon Key items seem reasonably priced tbh, and you will often see sales around this time of the year too.

Everything I review has purchase links added at the end, including here. For Moon Key, the Etsy store is the best option: https://www.etsy.com/shop/MoonkeyTech

I'm not big on these personally, mostly because they are atrociously expensive. Yes, I do understand they are handmade and probably a huge pain to make which is why they are as expensive as they are. But I cannot see myself coughing up 50 bucks for ONE key.

That said, I do find the lunar set to be completely awesome. Not awesome enough for me to spend that kind of money on them, but awesome nonetheless.

That's ultimately the best way to go about this, with my intention also being to spread awareness about artisans such as Moon Key.

Keep up the good work! :) Although I find stuff like this too expensive for me to buy, it's great to read about.
