Alicianrone

Bigger? Better. Ergonomic? Better. Dumb? But it works.

The Alicianrone has been my passion project in keyboards since late 2022, an inspiration on taking matters into your own hands and making the best thing for yourself even if it’s incredibly weird. We’re talking 1800 Arisu with an XT column, F13, and extreme layout compatibility including a niche split-Enter design for all the ISO lovers out there who have been wronged by Alice this whole time.

Target Pricing

All listed pricing is in USD, is prior to US tariffs, import duties, shipping, sales tax, etc.

MOQ of 20 Orders

Less than 25 Orders: $550

25 or More Orders: $450

50 or More Orders: $400

100 or More Orders: $375 or lower

Price may adjust ±$25 depending on where in the quantity we are at. Currently, these prices assume a roughly +$100 surcharge. This surcharge is meant to cover for shipping from the factory, variances causing defects and B-stock or F-stock, and allow for part replacement should it be necessary. Any unused funds will likely fund a few F&F units.

Fulfillment of Alicianrone

* 2025/08/30 I do want to note that with the revocation of the De Minimis condition on top of the heightened tariffs, the timeline MIGHT get a little funky and possibly delayed. I can’t say as to what will happen over the next half a year or so, but we’ll see. Just stay tuned and I’ll try to get things as smooth as possible.
