Re: FS: Pansku's collection sale

Seems like the Alps market has come crashing down so let's adjust some prices! Still a month left before I go on a business trip so let's get these things sold

Re: FS: Pansku's collection sale

More PM's answered, Honeywell sold

Also as a small clarification, IMHO (so take with a grain of salt) the switches in Omnikey are about 8,5/10 condition and the ones in Acer are 9/10. NOS would of course be the 10/10 benchmark

Re: [GB] NOS Alps SKCM White

Just picked mine up. They really are NOS as there was no sign of soldering on initial inspection :o Mine were with short white switchplates.

Thank you so much for offering this opportunity to the forum users!

Edit: I could find only one with long one now that I opened up a few more :oops:
