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.

Scandalous!

They def pricier on chassis, plate (foam too!) and ready-to-use designed pcb with components. However from my own experience building your own keyboard is fun especially when the result is as good as you expected from planning stage. Pure bliss.

Have you seen how metal keycaps are priced?
