If anyone wants to sell me (or trade) their Numpad kit, I'd be very grateful. Pm please. :-)

Just got the novelty key set in like, Thursday. They came out pretty nice.

I have these keys available for trade: Kitties, Geek Hack, DT, Glider, Bitcoin, Cherry xray, and Nerv (?)

TRADE only. USA.

Looking for: Space Invader, Duck (for troubleshooting purposes), maybe other novelty keys or iconic modifiers.

NERV is from Evangelion:

And therefore one of the best caps of all!

You heard the man; it's very valuable! Accepting offers of rare keycaps and gold bullion...

Ah, finally I know what that NERV is, Manga stuff :D
I should try and grab some Manga again, never really liked that stuff maybe I change my mind.

As a person interested in neither anime ("giant robot shows!") nor detective dramas, I find your analogy even more confusing!

You *have* to read detective novels, otherwise how could you ever get any tax deductions!?

+1 confused :|
I guess I have to look at some Evangelion anime stuff to get it...
I'm a big reader/collector of comics and BD (Mignola, Fabio Moon and Gabriel Ba, Hugo Pratt,Uderzo and Goscinny, Stan Sakai and his Usagi Yojimbo, and I can go on like this for hours ), watch cartoons with great pleasure, love Paul Rudish and his nearly absurd creations, but anime and manga I guess are an acquired taste. As I don't like to pass judgment without through study I added both on my list :D

Start with some classics, take Ghost in the Shell, best manga you'll ever read, and the only manga you need if you plan to read only one. If you like it, take Appleseed, too. Then continue to Berskerk (or even Hokuto no Ken). If you are still there, the sky is the limit.

I'm not an manga fan at all but Ghost in the Shell has been on my "need to read" list for about 100 years and it always seems to get shuffled down in favour of something else. Maybe when I finish this run through Trasnmet I'll give it a crack.

Thanks :D I'll star looking for these. Maybe we could start a topic dedicated to comics and manga in the "Off topic" area.

My caps arrived… thousands of miles away, at my brother's, as planned.

He opened up the box to check what's there for me, and wondered why the hell there were so many caps in there. Uh, yeah, difficult to describe to the uninitiated!

He did, however, take a shining to Matt's wife's kitty cap, and took it for himself.

Bonus: attempting to take good pictures of the caps finally convinced him to go looking for a real macro lens. His fancy pants glass is all crummy at close distance.

Of course, this also means I've no sweet keycap porn to share here… for now. Dangit.

GhostInTheShell had this one great track, which is what I remember the most from it (besides the naked robot lady, of course :mrgreen:): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBvwhnmUxDA#t=1m36s
And, btw., wasn’t it Masamune Shirow, the author of GhostInTheShell, who first introduced the idea of the “spider finger cyborg”. This is what we keyboard fans love so much:

just to be clear, I was referring to the comic book by Masamune Shirow, not the animation movie (which is good anyway).

Looking for the following keys:

Code: Select all

1.75u CONTROL - 1x
1.5u  ALT - 2x
1.25u FN - 2x
I don't know how I skipped ordering a "Text Pro" set.

Optionally a Space Invader, but the demand for those seems to be too high. :)

Hey everyone, I'd love to buy someone's kitty key from them. I'm also up for trading but I really don't have many things that I think would be desirable.

Thanks :D

I am looking for a base set and Ergodox if possible. Most important is the 6.25x spacebar as well.

I have a penumbra set with the Ergodox kit arriving soon to trade since this set appeals to me more

Edit: I'm in Canada if that makes a difference

If any of you has a blue enter with the icon left over I would be happy to take that off you. Preferably in the EU.

Also I have these left over:

Keys marked red are gone

PM me for quicker answer.

What's in the grab bag? :o Both that and the DSA retro set sound awesome... Are you just looking to trade, or would you consider selling them separately?
