This is my first mechanical. I ordered Gateron pro yellows pre installed. Everything is supposed to be lightly lubed. Managed to get it for 121 CAD + taxes and free shipping. I think I got a substantially better deal than if I went with my original plan of buying a Keychron V1.
I can't describe the feel too much because it's my only mechanical ever but it's very good. I don't think it feels flawless, but it's good. Left shift and space have foam or rubber beneath making them thud more than the other keys and the board itself is heavy and already dampened. They gave a cap and switch puller as well as 3 switches and a black space bar cap.
My favorite tie knot is the Pratt-Shelby. The only thing not to like about it is the fact that the tie needs to be reversed when tying it.
