Damn, thats amazing. I guess im outflexed

Anything different about it other than the model number?

(edit, nvm can see there are a bunch more screws on the bottom, anything else?)

I think the SAT, SAR, and SAA are competing for that most sought after too.

I mean, keycap wise? Sure. Board wise? Probably not
Still, those are some incredible looking caps, esepcially SAA.

Thanks, I think soo too. Doesnt get much better in terms of cherry boards

My streak of good Cherry luck continues with another board, this time an MX5000, the ergo keyboard from cherry and one of the first keyboards to come with MX brown switches (together with the kinesis).
It was dirty and needed a good clean, but that was relatively simple.

Comes with vintage MX brown ...

No legal ground other than "bad kid took keyboard and made money".

Ethics wont cut it in court - if it even gets to there.

I have a little issue.
I got a used Free2 and recently I notice black spots on left side of the metal axle. When it happens, the roller feels sticky. When I remove this spots, it feels smooth again, but after 2-3 days spots come back again. Any ideas?

I think thats just regular grime, might be ...

Thank you

Damonskv wrote: 11 Mar 2020, 09:20 are they all doubleshots, even these?

Yep, every key on the board is fully doubleshot, no pad printing

Recently got a big-ish haul of Cherry keyboards, with what I think is an undocumented board in the pile. Its a G80-3000 WKL with slovenian doubleshot keys :)

They were a bit dirty and benefited from a thorough clean. The switches are fairly smooth vintage MX blacks.

If you do try it, please let me know. Mine refuses to work with an adapter (switched to AT or XT). Am suspecting the cable at this point since it was replaced.

PMd you about the 30€ one

Icarium wrote: 08 Mar 2020, 21:41 Hm...how would I identify those? I have an Apple Extended Keyboard II. Is that what you need?

Those are probably dampened

Muramasa wrote: 08 Mar 2020, 19:15 Wow you just got the SSK holy grail, fantastic find

Thats not ISO

Still, amazing find !

BTC5100, BTC dome with slider. Decent keyboard.

This is a Datacomp DFK555, have the same one. Nice board!

Does yours work with a normal DIN to PS2 adapter?

Lowered price and bump

Want to sell my ITAC industrial trackball.
If you are looking for a smooth, mechanical trackball look no further, this is about as good as it gets :P
It has a serial plug but a serial to USB converter is included.

Super nice, what a great looking board.

Could you do a sound test of it ?

Bump

Still available

Still is, feel free to PM me

[…] Asking price is 60eur (not including shipping) and ships within the EU :)

Now that’s more than a fair price for such a rare item.
A pity I’m not buying keyboards anymore, I would have jumped on it at once.
I would suggest you reserve it for a seasoned member like photekq :D

Thanks, now ...

Want to sell my G80-1000HAY (doubleshot yugoslavian caps).

The board is a bit yellowed together with the caps, but not badly. It is otherwise in good condition and has been cleaned, although a bit of grime remains on the diodes inside the board. (clean log can be found here https://deskthority.net ...

Can you point out the NEC APC H412?

Woa, amazing job with the restoration. Could you do a typing demo of it?

Thats a really good deal tbh. Go for it if you can.
