Topre Realforce 87U
Model No. SE17T0
US Layout - 87 keys (TKL)
Variable weight keys - 30g 45g 55g
Black PBT caps with lettering

Like new condition / all original components / fully working

includes all the original package contents, including the replacement control and caps lock keys (if you want to swap those key positions).

An excellent keyboard, built to outlive all of us and to provide that sweet Topre thock-thock feedback the whole way. :-)
I currently have two of these, both purchased from The Keyboard Company (UK).
I used one with me work PC and the other with my personal Mac. Nice to use the same keyboard layout on both computers.

I also have and use two HHKBP2s, and my wife has convinced me that really I just don't need all of these.

Asking €199 + shipping.
Will send to you from Amsterdam.

FYI sold on eBay.co.uk on 2021.09.15 at the asking price.

Thank you to those who had a look at my post here!
I know I am not an active member, and perhaps that is why I didn't get any real interest in my post. Nevertheless I have been logging in here regularly since I posted this and I have enjoyed checking out people's posts since I found this site.

All the best to you

Welcome! I love your user name- great show. Feel free to pull up a chair and join the conversation!

You're right that there can be some skepticism for folks who only drop in to sell stuff. In addition to joining the conversation, you may have better interest here if you offer a discount under your eBay price. No fees when you sell here, so you can sell for less and get to keep the same amount of money.

Anyway, since you're here- make yourself at home.

Hey thanks Raoul. Actually I am an eBay noob as well (this was my first sale there as well) and I didn't realize that i would get charged an additional ~12% between eBay commission and VAT until it sold. Doh!

Anyway thanks again for your welcome!

Oof. VAT is a killer!

What kind of keyboards do you like to use?
