Yeah don't feed the Nixie guy !
And don't believe the hype ... I put some gateron tops on my mx blacks and they got smoother, too.

Anyone planning on getting this cheap ? I can't let this sell for less than 30€ unless one of you is aiming for it.

MAUSPET !!!

Mhm thanks for the insight, makes sense. Sounds like some old chicony boards with nice sturde steel plates with Cherry MX switches.

That's cheap for white alps ? Is there a different price level in the US ?

It's mostly pictures of the wifes/girlfriends. That's how they look over there.

Probably moved their facilities 1:1 to the czech republic ...

is there a place where someone explains to me which alps switches are the sht and which ones are crap ? Pine and bamboo doesn't quite seem to catch all the shades of sliders there are ...

I would love to find out what that keyboard is made off:

Philips Keyboard ... looks mechanical once again.

More crazy vintage alps stuff, horrible price:

Okay this is one for the real collectors:
https://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/s-anz ... 7-225-2965

Tandberg Data Computer Terminals seriell TDV 2237 S with Siemens STB switches. Look at that price ... for TWO of them.

Somebody get it and take it apart

Who got the Alps mini computer I posted yesterday ? Anonymous ?

Anyone got any idea what this is:
http://www.ebay.de/ulk/itm/201520123121
The keyboard looks mechanical to me.

And if you go through the trouble of shipping crates of 1800s to the US, make sure you get the 5€ USB version instead of the 3€ PS/2 version.

Got a box of those already. Wanna try some "ortholinear" stuff with them. I hope that doesn't sound sexual ...

Let's see

I gotta admit those G81-HADs come with a very neat keycap holder for the dish washer / hydrogen peroxide bath
400€ isn't enough !
