Does anyone have spare '←', '1' and '2' Helvetica Narrow VIC-20 keycaps they're willing to part with?

The 8-Bit Guy just mentioned in a video that he has loads of spare Vic-20s that can be used for spares and he's trying to organise a Vic-20 repair event, so he may be able to send/sell you some if you don't find any elsewhere.

I saw that. I'll give it a shot, but won't be surprised if he's too busy to reply.

In my experience, as one of his Patreon members, he does reply - sometimes it's a single-line reply, but he does reply.

He did reply quite quickly. He's waiting for the VIC-20 repair video before selling any parts.

The 8bit guy had a Vic20 repair party at VCF SW back in June and gave away many spare vic20s/parts. Got mine fixed there, whoooo!
