Or maybe its a gamer thing?
As an example, you will have to pry my IBM model M out of my cold, dead, hand (and I am not at all a gamer).
And I am not the only non-gamer loving it:

The feeling (tactile feedback besides the acoustic one) of pressing a key and being 110% sure that you have pressed it (same thing happens on good ol' HP calculators, such as the HP 28 C that you'll have to pry out of my other cold, dead hand ;)).
Still a lot of people believe that the M keyboard is way too loud.
Anyway, even if someone is a fan of long travel, clicky keyboards, from that to spending US$ 250 on a kit (+ 115 US$ to buy the actual keys) in order to have a keyboard where you won't find the Enter key where it should be there is a huge gap, however.
That's (besides the time and labour, that can be considered "fun") it's 365 US$ + shipping for a nice, little keyboard, frankly it is IMHO simply too much money for the "privilege".
Clickity, ckickity, click ...
