That seller has been putting those boards up occasionally for ages now..

I've not seen one for a long time...this is the nicest set I've seen for a while though.

I seem to be internally convincing myself to go for it...

Can anybody translate the prices given there into Euro (or give an approximated conversion rate)?
I happen to have some of these exact boards and would like to know about the prices asked for them

Bare in mind shipping will be expensive for something that size and weight!

That 9009 is fantastic though.

Volks · 25 Apr 2015, 10:59

There is a high chance that the sellers don't have those board in-stock. I want the 9009 though.

They also make a "left-handed" version that I kept encountering when trying to find keyboards with the numberpads on the left. The other two I saw were DSI with Cherry Reds (but a big-ass Enter) and a scissor switch board where the reviews consistently said keys start failing well within a reasonable usage lifetime. I'm no longer looking for those, I solved the problem and then some, getting my alpha keys as far to the right as humanly possible without sacrificing function.

So who is bidding on the F122's? I am planning to bid on one, and I think it would be a good idea to decide now on which forum member bids on which. I am fine with any of them. Thought this would be a good idea so we don't end up in bidding wars w/each other.

Redmaus · 25 Apr 2015, 20:21

I have decided I want to bid on #1 due to the fact that it is a different part number than mine.

XMIT · 25 Apr 2015, 20:26

You won't get any competition from me on #1. I am interested in and hoping to win #2 and #3. If someone else is as well please send me a PM. I may even be able to help you with spare parts.

Thank you for the cooperation if anyone else wants one, speak now or forever hold your tongue!

XMIT · 25 Apr 2015, 20:48

Yeah. Seriously, I'd like to see more of this. I don't want to compete with anyone for keyboards (I have enough) and don't want to drive up auction prices for fellow forum members.

Redmaus · 25 Apr 2015, 23:19

Found this today! Could I get a price check over here?

Looks interesting! The keycaps mount looks like the one on Honeywell Hall Effect switches, but the rest looks different.

We have a dedicated thread for price checks: http://deskthority.net/help-f53/price-c ... h-t16.html

Right, but I was just already posting in this thread. Sorry if it is an inconvenience.

Redmaus that Xerox keyboard has ITW Cortron magnetic valve switches. I can't tell you what it is worth. Did you pick this up locally in Dallas or is this an auction? I really need to head up that way at some point.

I have a couple of keyboards in the garage with those key switches. Nice linears.

I have several of these in the garage. They are beautiful Cherry profile double shots with blue and yellow legends, and plate mounted.

Here's a really great deal on a skull keycap!

O.o

I can recall when they first came out... showing it to a friend because it was reminiscent of the American comic hero 'The Punisher'. The original 25-35 USD cost for it seemed steep.

Sooooo....Anyone know a good way of sneaking a battleship into the house?

photekq · 26 Apr 2015, 20:30

Oh, I talked to that WEY seller. It's the last one she has

HzFaq · 26 Apr 2015, 20:31

Yeah, right, until the next one...

I was asking if I could buy all of them at once.. Would be a bit funny if she lied to me about the quantities she had

She says she has 1 more, but it's incomplete.
