I would like the caps in honesty.
Ducky really could do with a premium PBT full keycap range in a few more colours
GiraffePencils - buy a board
waso_dude - buy some Dvorak keycaps
GiraffePencils - send dyesub pbt to waso_dude
waso_dude - send Dvorak keycaps to GiraffePencils

I have a new plan, I just want it.
who cares if the keys are in the wrong place, who looks at their hands while typing anyway, I'm not a massive fan of pre order, so am I likely to miss out on the first drop of stock if I don't? or will I have to pre order to secure one?

RJK, whats the warranty period on these?
all ducky is one year.
here is some insight though since we have listed the Ducky brand:
13 faulty units out of 1300+ sold [just under 1%]
10 of these faulty units were found to be faulty within the 14 Day Guarantee period and replaced immediately. The other 3 developed faults later on.
so ignoring the DOA units, only 3 out of 1300+ Ducky Keyboards have actually developed faults after a term of usage for us.
Ducky do not do cost saving. their products are regarded as the best for good reason. for a £100+ keyboard, we usually anticipate higher DSR rates also.
This is hands down, the best returns results for ANY peripheral brand within our group.
buy with confidence.

Thanks again RJK 
Bought my Ducky DK2108 Zero with Brown-MX 12th July '13. I wouldn't say I'm an excessive gamer or typer and it's still rock solid... Usual WASD keys have gone a little shiny and edges of letters starting to wear a little but nothing different than any other board you'll get...
Just with the Ducky they'll be easy to change when required!
Having tried Logitech, Razor, Corsair ect, the ducky is easily the best built out there. I recon I could actually hit people with it, and it would still work.
Also it has a replacable cable so no worry about broken cables.
I'd like to know the facts about how many have been returned under the Distance selling act. And not for reasons like wanted a differant switch or keys to loud.

returns under DSR arent accounted for under our fault reporting software so it isnt as easy for me to get exact figures.
however, going off a rough count on our ordering system we have seen around 30 units returned under DSR. which as a percentage is nothing really compared to what we do see under DSR usually.
you must also remember that we offer the 14 day guarantee. which means we get a few more DSRs than we used to.
on the whole, I think the large majority of customers have their expectations met or exceeded by some margin and thats what makes Ducky so popular as a brand.

After only 30 minutes on this ducky shine 2 TKL (Black) I can see why people love these keyboards.
Noise is the only reason I'd swap back to my Eclipse II

Looking at this... I bought 2 Yellow edition Ducky MX Cherry Blues!!
One for myself (Switched out with Black PBT caps) and one for my miss (yes we both love sharp yellow)
The Yellow color is REALLY hot! A little bit more orange than shown on the website, which is perfect for us

My expectations were smashed with the DK2108, even with it being one of the lower models in the Ducky range.
I grabbed a set of noise dampening o-rings, which made a slight difference to the noise... And quite a difference to the feel! Dare I say that it feels even more luxurious now!
