48 sets of vintage MX blacks in stock. MX Blacks in stock from 1986-1993 USA shipping only. If you are overseas, please use a package forwarding service. As always, thanks for shopping!

Yesterday a young man came to my warehouse and spent about 3 hours testing out the feel and function of quite a few old keyboards. He is fairly new to the hobby, but he tried out about 12 different keyboards. Much to his delight, he found quite a few that met his requirements of being able to hit Al...

I was gonna say, looks pretty decent compared to what it was! I use a wooden dowel of the appropriate diameter, and a hairdryer set on low. Maybe those would help you next time.

I mean, what's 4 years between internet buddies? Who wants to sell me their unsaver for $250? This is a great offer, believe me.

Did u sign up for one?

https://elecshopper.com New shop is open, but shipping is only to the US until I can get the UPS module fixed. Very slowly getting inventory added back in. If you want something that is out of stock, PLEASE use the box to enter your email. The shop will automatically email you when it is relisted. ...

Your discord does not seem to work? I have these already desoldered, from Wyse boards. Until I get the UPS module working, shipping is only to the US.

https://elecshopper.com/Wyse-Vintage-Ke ... p216942969 Running out of time to desolder all these, so I thought I would offer assemblies. Shipping will start Weds.

That is a good point, Fs are older so if there is wear involved then you would expect them to be smooth on both the barrels and the caps, but it appears to be just the caps that are smooth. Someone who owns more Ms and Fs and also knows a bit about the plastics involved should really look into it. ...

I talked with UPS today, and told them they are missing out on lots of shipments to Europe because of the high cost to ship. We are working on a deal where 1 keyboard would cost, at most, $40 to ship. How many people would be interested? Covers England, Germany, Spain, Switzerland, and all nearby co...

Whatever you do, please do not ever throw away the harvested boards.

What would you do with harvested Wyse boards?

4 more sets of vint mx blacks from 1986 to 1992.

Several people have asked about the bags I store keyboards in, so I have put some on the site. They only come in cases of 500, and few people want to go there :-) https://elecshopper.com/12x24-inch-4mil-polyethylene-bags-bundle-of-20-p202457540 Desoldered vintage Cherry MX blacks will be back in sto...

I can provide at least 1 complete set for the G81-7000LPMUS. You might want to consider some alternatives, too.

5 different types of IBM Shift keys. The top left has a wire on the back; the right one does not.

Wyse 50s are beautiful keyboards! I recently came across this keyboard in a pile I picked up to desolder. I have never seen caps like these on a Wyse before. Connector is a standard terminal jack.

Perhaps this will help? http://nerdlypleasures.blogspot.com/201 ... -1000.html

I will have mx blacks from old Wyse boards next week. 75c each sold in sets of however many came off each board.

Any clue what these are? I can get 2 of these, NIB, been on a shelf for 25+ years.

This is really sad!

Hm, having mixed feelings about this one. It looks extremely flat, but could still have ALPS, no? Anyone got an inkling? Thanks!

That looks like old MX blacks to me.

If these are pad printed, it is the best pad printing I have ever seen!
I think these are probably real double shots.

Added a clean tested 1391401 and an Ortek 105 for Mac with double shop caps and Alps whites.
