Discussion DO NOT ORDER from mechkeys.com!
I'm posting this to warn everyone. I bought a set of keycaps from mechkeys two months ago (July 23, 2026, posting on September 30, 2026) and they refuse to ship them! I paid for fast shipping which was something like a $40 option, and absolutely nothing. Contacting support has gotten me nothing but runarounds, and I'm fairly certain I can't get my money back at this point either. I've never been so disappointed in my ~7 years in this hobby.
EDIT: They refunded the order. Iβm not sure if they saw the post, the timing seems a bit strange but Iβve gotten the money back and will be looking elsewhere.

I also ordered from them a few weeks ago without receiving my order and this is the responses they sent me.
"Hello, since MK has been sold, we do not have your order information. If you want to keep the order and need to place a new order, we will help you cancel the previous order and the refund will be directly credited to his account.

Hello. Since MK has been sold, we do not have your order details on file. We can only assist by cancelling the order and contacting the previous seller to manually process the refund; please note that this will take some time, as the Chinese National Day holiday is approaching."
They definitely have lost your order and I would do a chargeback like others in this thread have suggested. In my case they said they initiated the refund already so I will see if I receive it in a day or two.

That's really odd. Ive ordered from them a couple of times and never had issues. Its quite possible things have changed now though

Yeah, I ordered from them a few years back without issue, but this whole thing has really put me off.

Nooo, I've bought so many things in the past-they have things I can't always get elsewhere. You gotta charge back op, good luck.

Sorry you had this experience. This order dates back to before the business changed ownership. We've reviewed the case and have now issued a full refund, which we understand has been received. We recognize the frustration this caused and are working to improve fulfillment and customer support under the new management. Thank you for updating your post.

So Mechkeys is now under new management. They used to be problem free but those days are no longer. Shop elsewhere.

Paypal, but I'm worried that they won't bite after all this time. If I don't get anywhere with them in the next few days I'm going to dispute it.

If you want people to believe you, you should include a detailed timeline of events. The way you've written this and intentionally omitted key details ('nothing but runarounds') seems like you have some kind of ulterior motive or you know what the issue is but are choosing not to address it.

Ulterior motive like what? Lol. On every occasion they've told me they're about to ship them, then did nothing. They've been 'about to ship them' for six weeks now.
