Put me down for one whole keyboard. I suppose the shipping of the whole board to USA will suck but it's still cheap enough probably to be worthwhile.

Most of the 31XX boards I have seen also have in switch diode for NKRO, so that makes it better and potentially more valuable too if it does. One can always transplant the PCB without the card reader part into a standard case body for a better all around '3000'.

Hmn... I might consider taking one of those off your hands ramnes. I've been wanting an older DE set without all the extra Alt Gr characters on it lately.

Why not Spanish? It's one of the largest used languages in the world. Also, it's one of the largest used languages in Miami so it fits in with the theme. I plan on continuing having various languages as a pad printing secondary. I've seen it's not feasible to do different languages as doubleshot add...

Don't worry about the Alt Gr, it was a render mistake on CMYKv2 it will be there as usual. That pack also has FOUR Caps Locks, just label as LOCK.

True, I see G81-****SAD on ebay.de now and then for under 30EUR. Most often the Highscreen branded ones for cheap, just keep an eye out.

I had a Deko, it is black MX with DCS dyesubs. It works (mostly) as a standard PS/2 keyboard. To make it work fully you need a power supply for it, and to install a software bundle that is very hard to get from Pinnacle (unless you happen to have already some applicable registered products with them).

So what is that mystery item then?

Sorry about that, I didn't realize it showed all the info by default. I have it disabled now.

Off to a good start with 60 orders already

20 Minutes into the Future... aka Max Headroom, one of my favorites! I really wish they would re-release that in HD.

Groupbuy for GMK doubleshots. This groupbuy is open to anyone world wide. USD pricing subject to change based on current EUR exchange rate at invoice time. All orders will be invoiced in USD and payable in USD. Buyer will be responsible for payment of goods, shipping costs, for all paypal fees, and ...

Those WEY boards are indeed pretty cool... it's just too bad they nearly are always sold without the required keyboard controller/KVM module so you can't use them. Finding the module to buy alone can be quite a chore.

Me too! I want a set of those.
Yes all the multicolor are pad print. Front printed may not have a clearcoat as it isn't really needed since they are not likely to suffer wear from being touched like the top printing.

I've seen some of the 1800 that come built in those 1u rack drawer have the BBCDDD too. I found it irritating to type on and why I got rid of my Compaq 1838 even though I loved it's all white color.

I've been kind of stuck on this one for quite awhile now... wallpaper and rainmeter config by me.

Chicony 5000 series can have nearly any kind of mechanical switch, Cherry MX, Futaba, Mitsumi, Aristotle MX clones, SMK, Monterey, Alps... the model number seem to mean absolutely nothing to identify as same number can have anything. Only way to know is to see under a keycap. It's really quite annoy...

Right, 11900 always* have MX blacks from the factory. Reasonable enough deal on it though for doubleshots.

Those old epson seem to fetch $30-60 depending on functionality, condition.

Hehe... yeah but we will have USB C standard now, so finally it can be resolved again after 30 years.

I wish I could get that ROHDE & SCHWARZ. It's much nicer than the used one that is available on US ebay for an also too high price. I want a Cherry bitshift layout keycap set so bad!

US ANSI Cherry dyesub sets used to go for those really high prices. I suppose less people are that insane now days that you can get 98% identical sets from current production sources for under $130.

Collectors market can be tough with some things. Just because something is on the rare side doesn't automatically make it high value. Sure, some 'minority' language layouts are in very high demand for whatever reason, but others really are not and will get almost no notice. Now... if that NCR dyesub...

Not the colorscheme you are looking for, but IBM did apparently make Arabic so you could hunt one of them down instead... or I suppose maybe if you can find some high res enough photos for the maker to copy it from? http://www.9999hp.net/keyboard/temp/0989705-big.jpg Or, I don't see why you can't si...

Looks like the controller stuff is on a separate daughterboard. That makes it a lot easier potentially to get it working as you could just pull that whole part off and replace it with something else easier to work with.

Yes, what I call gen2 MY switch. They used to have both black and white, which had different weight. I don't remember which is the heavier one. There is also the oldest ones (at least I think they are?) that had an even less frictiony slider that is like this http://deskthority.net/w/images/thumb/c/...

I've had one of those Honeywell boards before. It's domes that are very nice, thick, with a distinct tactile 'pop' (at least on the NIB specimen I had). It's assembly is kind of similar of IBM M with a molded 'barrel plate' with the domes sandwiched in between it and a membrane sheets over a concave...

Right, I would say that NCR about the same as I quoted on the Olivetti Portuguese board. That NCR is a very nice and fairly rare model, with the same 'con' that it's in Portuguese which doesn't seem to get the same kind of favor from collectors as other layouts. Quite attractive for Portuguese user ...

If I had it I would keep it too, or the keycaps and put them on a decent board... or at least put a G80-3XXX PCB inside it assuming it's a MY version.

hi guys, how much worth a Olivetti KBD2812 w/ OG dyesubs in mint condition (without box however) http://s1.postimg.org/ja1s0yjxb/DSC02276_Large.jpg detailed photos here: http://imgur.com/a/jyO4V I'll say around €150-170. While it's a rare board in Portuguese that layout historically are harder sell...

There really probably won't be anything to update until its finish manufacture.
