A: With each purchase you will receive:
1. The key cap of your choice
2. All the necessary plastic hardware that connects the key to the keyboard. These parts are commonly referred to as "retainer clips" or "switches". NOTE: if your key has any additional metal pieces (this is typical in larger keys such as the "shift" and "space bar keys"), they will be included as well.
3. The small, rubber spring cup that allows the key to pop back up when pressed.
4. Detailed, easy to follow, step by step video guided instructions.
All parts necessary for a complete key restoration are included with each full repair kit.2. All the necessary plastic hardware that connects the key to the keyboard.

The envelope will have your name and address printed on it with a USPS First Class stamp (for USPS First Class orders).
A: Tracking is not provided for parcels sent via USPS First Class because it is not a service offered by the USPS for First Class parcels, which is our most popular shipping method. All orders sent Priority Mail include a delivery confirmation number and all orders sent Express Mail include a tracking number. No delivery confirmation or tracking services are provided for international orders.
A: There are literally thousands of different models of computers out there and we do not offer parts for all of them. We are constantly updating our inventory to expand our selection. Unfortunately, if your computer model or series is not an option in our selection process, we do not offer your parts at this time.
A: One keyboard will usually work across several different computer models. We have already figured out and listed all compatible models that our keyboards will fit. If your model is not listed, we do not stock a keyboard that will fit that group of computer models.
A: No, these are not parts physically attached to the keyboard although it may look that way. We only stock laptop keyboards and no other computer hardware.
A: No, we do not offer these parts at this time.
A: We offer two options for all models: (1) The full hardware kit including the key cap and all underlying hardware and (2) Just the underlying hardware without the key caps (click on "purchase retainer clip only" from shopping cart to exercise this option). We do not sell just the key caps without the hardware for a discount. If you need the key caps, you will have to purchase a full key kit.
A: No, the part we sell are the mechanical parts of the keyboard key that allow the up and down movement of the key cap. Typically, when a key stroke is not registered by your computer, this is caused by a discontinuity in the electrical signal between the contact pad of the key and computer's processor. Replacing the mechanical hardware is unlikely to solve your problem. Sometimes, the problem is caused by contaminants on the keyboard base but most of the time this problem is solved by replacing the entire keyboard.
