DAS Professional Keyboards and Ducky keyboards are good high quality "plain" keyboards. I think WASD Keyboards have some as well.

Tons of them, check out companies like Cherry, Ducky and Filco,, DAS and WASD , some of the Corsair models are quite subdued too

yeah ive had a look at all of them and their exactly what im loking for but the problem with these is that they are really expensive which i would of thought that the non-gamer ones wouldn't have that kind of price tag but i was wrong due to cherry mx switches being really expensive per unit.

actually non gamer keyboards will always be more expensive because the demand is smaller, there are more gaming keyboards so there is more competition so the prices go down.

If anything the reason "gamer" keyboards are more money are because they sell more - Corsair, Logitech and Razer have WAY more customers than Ducky / Filco etc 

 

They sell very few units so have to sell for a high price - they are also extremely well built and have great support - a bit like buying a workstation grade laptop over a consumer one

Check out CoolerMaster's offerings. I linked one, it has simple white backlighting and a subdued design that looks nice IMO. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00C67C79C/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?qid=1432310768&sr=8-3π=AC_SX200_QL40&keywords=cooler+master+quickfire&dpPl=1&dpID=41%2Bzh%2B4tJtL&ref=plSrch
