Hello guys
Few years ago, I saved a vintage Cherry G80-0777H/7 keyboard from being throwng away at my summer job place. I had a bit of trouble identifying the board beacause the plate says G80-0777H/7 but the board looks more like a G80-0779. Now I consider selling it and building a custom keyboard, but I have no idea what it might be worth. The board should have vintage cherry black swithes and doubleshot keycaps.

Thanks for your interest! To be honest, I swapped the keys. In my language we usually use the QWERTZ layout and after cleaning the board, I popped them back in true to the layout Im using, but it looked wierd, so I switched it back few days after .dogmantime wrote: ↑13 Jun 2020, 16:09I'd be very interested in buying that board from you if you decide so. As for a price check, I'll do some more research and consulting of fellow Cherry boys in the meantime, but as for now I'd give it a ballpark of 100+ (£ or €). By the way who swapped the Y and Z keys?

According to the Cherry documentation, the G80-0777 is the US version, while the G80-0778 is the German version (and the G80-0779 the French version). There is also a similar version (G80-0832) with dedicated keycaps made for the engraving machine manufacturer Gravograph, and also a rack mount version.
As for a price estimate, even as a "Cherry boy oldster" I am quite disconnected from the market and cannot give an estimate, sorry.
Just hope that fine item will not be butchered for the switches in the end.

Thanks for the info! Yeah, thats the last thing I want for this keyboard to happen, to sell it to someone who is going to harvest it for the switches and the keycaps.kbdfr wrote: ↑14 Jun 2020, 08:25According to the Cherry documentation, the G80-0777 is the US version, while the G80-0778 is the German version (and the G80-0779 the French version).
