I'll be heading over to Cindy's warehouse in a few days and I was wondering if any of you had any boards that DT users have been looking for or have on a wishlist. This is important because there are going to be an almost unlimited number of boards there and i can't take all of them home so I need to know which boards to take over others. So say which brand (Cherry, IBM, alps, etc) you want the most and which switch types and keycap sets.

I just want to know which items are in highest demand here so I can grab the best boards when I am at the warehouse.

Beamspring and Unsaver are in perennial demand. F-122 maybe, F AT is always good

I'd be interested in providing an Ortek MCK-142 Pro a nice home!

Also, I have already told cindy this, but I am very interested in any cool cherry g80. I would also like an unsaver, but that goes without saying. She is quite sure there are none in those boxes.

That's the one. Doesn't look like they are still taking orders though.

Oh I'd be happy with this IBM 3279...just kidding I don't count on that sitting in there.
Actually anything Micro Switch would be great but even that's long shot.

AEK and AEK II are always common finds. Grab as many Orange Alps as you can, and Salmon Alps too. I'd skip Cream Damped Alps unless the boards are in quite good condition with minimal to no yellowing.
Keep anything with Blue Alps of course.
IBM Model Ms are a common find. I'd keep anything with an old label (usually 1989 or earlier) that is complete.
Watch out for G81-3000SAU and SAT, those come up every once in a while.
If by chance you find what looks like an old school ANSI Cherry MX board with function keys to the left - this is a Sun/Integrix board, please hold on to it.

There are NO SSK or unsavers, I can promise you that! The closest thing is the MicroSwitch RD unsavers, and those are very much NOT comparable to a BS.

Yeah, Model F122 (it's the item on top of my wishlist, but I don't think I could afford it with shipping and taxes).
On a more practical note, anything IBM older than 1989 is worth it.
(Apart from the IBM PCjr keyboard of course.)
