Picked up a Cherry MX 5000 today which I found on marktplaats.nl. The third one I found this way, 15 EUR. It's almost like new.

I see you like them with key caps missing.



Also, I see I should look more at marktplaats!

Why the fuck are these ANSI boards in Europe. Stupid.

Damn, congrats again. This one even comes with the box!

It's because of the dutch......

Keycaps missing by design. Above the older version with more keycaps.

But that Cherry logo really ties the board together...

Rather cheap sticker

Webwit beat me to it. That thing was posted only recently today....

Looks like there are switches without springs.

In its un-ergonomical position, it is a nice keyboard with extra keys to the left.

lol well it still looks better than the mono lazer stamp on my work board

The version with Windows keys has the infamous "super blacks" on the left and the key caps are not doubleshot there.
P.S. Where those blacks in your group buy?

WHAT>?!?!?!?! 15 Euros?!@?#!?@#!@#?!?@#!?@?!?!?!?!??!?!?!!

The first was 10 euro, the second 10 or 15, and this one 15. That's a premium price here for an "old keyboard". Which is what the sellers think it is, just an old worthless keyboard. If it makes you feel better, that's over a period of three years. There are hardly any interesting keyboards for sale here, traffic is very low.

...

They will be available in the next round along with the pink, orange and crystal clears. I also plan to include ALPS, buckling spring and Topre switches, plus any combination of springs in these switches....

Fabulous find. Congrats!

dammit trade this to me webwit

I'm just a little bit pissed off here. I called the seller first but she didn't like the idea of posting a parcel and preferred the keyboard to be picked up. Enter webwit.


edit: I'm ok... in fact, I raise my hat to webwit for his quickness.

I'm a little bit pissed off that this wasn't posted in the great finds section...
