To be honest, I wonder if the blue alps "hype" has only perpetuated because of troll bidders and people who cancel their listings just because their boards don't sell for a gazillion dollars. :?

In the past there was a good amount of high feedback winners though, not too long ago my Acer KB101A ...

DC-2014s are fairly common, so I think they're lowering the value of donor 'boards with Blue Alps. Rare 'boards with Blues will still command a midrange price, I think.
Well, the Acer 6011 on eBay just ended with the non-stratospheric price of $135.00, won by someone who doesn't seem to be a troll ...

It looks like they might fit in a Omron plate.

Zenith SWA-4300, the build quality on this is excellent

Very nice review. Im surprised Tai-Hao made good switches since their APC switches were pretty bad. Although its a shame it uses a plastic plate, would probably do the switches much more justice with a steel one. Do the Aruz switches use Omron or Alps compatible pins? Or do they use their own type ...

Im almost certain thats a Coolermaster Rapid-I because of the USB connector position and angled cabled that they come with.

Right, and it says "made in Korea", which automatically makes it worth more money.

Haha an excellent price

Redscarf78, my favorite MX boards

NIB? that is awesome, how are the switches in a new AT101W? Did they have any Russian layout ones?

Is there a way to disable NKRO? My Z-150 misses keypresses sometimes and i think the NKRO over USB could be causing it. I also have a Chicony 5160 that doesnt have blocking so if i hit anything over 6KRO a bunch of random keys get triggered, it works fine with a standard Monoprice and Bluecube ...

I got my XT Z-150 up and running using a Pro Micro but it misses keypresses, im not sure if the Pro Micro is to blame or if its because the Z-150 has NKRO over USB with the soarer firmware. Is there a way to disable NKRO for keyboards that automatically receive NKRO over USB with soarer firmware ...

Around how much is a Industrial Model M round label in mint condition worth?

I've never shopped there myself, we do have several people here who have experience with TaoBao, seems like a lot of "rarer" stuff does show up there for a decent price by our standards.

This is certainly a rare item if it is real:

Look at the bidding history, it's the same exact 0-feedback bidders doing the same thing. Happening on this listing as well http://www.ebay.com/itm/111943444691

I've forwarded this info to support, hopefully we can get these fools blacklisted.

Thats my listing btw. I dont know who any of the ...

Oh i see oops, not sure if it was just the batch that came with my RK-6000 but they have the most wobble than any other clones ive tried and they all click unevenly(possibly because of the wobble) Depending on if you hit the key directly or off center the switches sometimes wont click. They also ...

Im talking about the APC Teal switches, not the Aruz, ive never used Aruz.

I have some of the Tai-Hao APC Teal click switches and there pretty bad. Hopefully the Aruz is in a different league.

All my boards seem to have different color wires so i dont think im going to chance trusting the colors, although i may have to end up guessing.

If only there was a way to identify the power and ground pins. I dont think anyway exists to find out the pinouts so im most likely going to have to guess ...

The blue does look more vibrant but its most likely just from the picture since the tab is visible so its almost certainly genuine.

Nice no rush

I actually just bought that exact board from the listing the other day It should arrive sometime next week.

I got a MCK 860 recently and the cable has been cut, the connector inside the keyboard is still there though. I was planning to wire a PS/2 cable to it but im not able to use a mulitmeter to trace the continuity of the pins to the wire since the original cable is gone. I used this diagram to ...

Hey, looks like these are getting to be really common.
