Reason for Sale
Upgraded to Rainy 75
Item 1 (₹ 1,300): Magegee MK-Star TKL Keyboard with Red Switches, Pink & White colorway
87-key TKL Layout Mechanical keyboard with linear switches (Jixian Red). USB connectivity only, no software needed, everything is controlled via keyboard hotkeys. White north-facing LED backlight with shine-through keycaps. Nice pink/peach colorway. Great starter keyboard, definitely not enthusiast level.
  • Equivalent Amazon link: https://www.amazon.in/dp/B0CCXKPM64
  • Original Purchase Price: ₹ 2,699 (purchased from Amazon, invoice included)
  • Asking Price, firm: ₹ 1,300 (includes DTDC shipping)
  • No original box, but will pack it exceptionally well.
  • Backlight for the G and PgDn keys are not working. Mechanical Keyboard enthusiasts will be unhappy with how much the keycaps rattle, but it should work great as a starter or secondary keyboard.
  • All keys work, including Fn+multimedia key combos
  • Many lighting effects can be enabled using Fn+A1-A6 key cluster
  • Reason For Sale: Upgraded to Rainy75

Item 2 (₹ 800): Redragon KS 617 Fizz 60% Mechanical keyboard (Sold out!)
Hotswappable (with outemu switches only) linear red switches, 60% layout - great for compact work and gaming. USB connectivity only. Modded: Added a tape mod for thockier sound.
  • Product link: https://redragon.in/products/fizz-k617-60-wired-mechanical-keyboard-white-and-grey-red-switches
  • Original Purchase Price: ₹ 1,500 (from here on TechEnclave, hence no invoice)
  • Asking price, firm: ₹ 800 (includes DTDC shipping)
  • No original box, but will pack it exceptionally well.
  • All keys and lighting works (Note: Keyboard is plug and play, software not needed. Optionally, Reddragon software can be installed, is very hard to use, but does work to control the lighting with more precision)
  • Great and cheap way to figure out if you can tolerate small form-factor keyboards
  • Reason for sale: I realized I use modifier + arrow keys too often during productivity tasks, which is hard to do on this layout. Had no issues with gaming.

Item 3 (₹ 2,000): Quark Matte Linear Switches x 66
Hotswap linear switches with a nice sound, came installed in a Cidoo v65 keyboard that I bought from IMKC Discord. Only installed once, never soldered, light use.
  • Product Link: Ignore everything and only consider the switches.
  • Original Purchase Price: Included as part of a more expensive keyboard purchased from IMKC discord, hence no invoice.
  • Asking price, firm: ₹ 2,000 (includes DTDC shipping)
  • No original box, but will pack it exceptionally well.
  • All 66 keys work (tested before I replaced them)
  • Reason for sale: swapped out the switches with silent switches for office use.

Good price on the Reddragon keyboard imo. I love it but like in your case I cannot do without dedicated arrow keys for work so I'm hesitant to buy. Can buy a dedicated one just for the arrow keys and num pad but that would be inconveniently placed and add to the price. I had the Razer Tartarus.

its not like there are no arrow keys, they are just hidden on a layer.
you get used to it after some time. now it seems like a chore to reach for arrow keys..

So I often need to highlight previous word and edit it, when writing documents, etc. For that, I use SHIFT+CONTROL+LEFT_ARROW. With this keyboard, I had to do SHIFT+CONTROL+Fn+A, which took a fair bit of brain cycles to operate regularly.
