where should I go for key caps?

I'm new to really getting into customizing a mech keyboard, I just got the glorious gmmk.

But I don't really know where to go for good key caps. I kind of want see through purple ones but I can't find any in stock anywhere and I've looked through drop but all of the key caps are just not very good looking.

Sadly its so hard to get first party caps that I have mostly given up and just buy clones from Aliexpress.

I have purchased from the following Aliexpress stores:

I got the dots from GMK-Key and the dots are offset from center a bit. It’s annoying but not a deal breaker I guess.

Yeah I got some Geoma clones and they have a few little errors but I could live with them.

See through caps are not going to be very popular. I would usually go for gmk, crp, or kat keycaps, but there won't really be anything see through with those

ANSI or ISO? There is far more choice with ANSI.

I recommend Etsy for custom made/bespoke and unusual keycaps.

ANSI.

I don't particularly need a bunch of really unique key caps I pretty much just want something that looks good and goes well with black and i haven't had luck so far.

You can get plainer key caps on Etsy too. I bought a set with half the caps blue and half white. There was lots of choices of colour from that seller.
