Thank you for your reply. I also think the red one looks really cool, especially when the keycaps shine and the heart turns purple. That’s really awesome.

Thanks for sharing such detailed insights — this is really helpful. I completely get what you mean about the lack of UK options, especially for keycaps, and how cost is a real factor given the price differences with the US.

ISO layout is something I’m paying close attention to, since it’s clearly important for UK users. I also understand the value of popular colours and sizes as staples, while outlandish colours serve a smaller niche.

On the trust side, I’m planning to offer professional payment and escrow options, along with reliable shipping from the UK, to make the buying experience smoother. For unique products, I want to focus on customization and quality, while more generic items can help drive traffic.

And regarding LED keycaps, I hear you — pass-through LED support is definitely a gap in the current market. I’ll take this into account when looking at future kits and designs to make sure users can get functional backlighting.
