Leopold FC660C Blue/Grey

[Spikebolt]

I've been out of the MK game for a while. I still really want to try an FC660C so shoot me an offer if you have the blue/grey version.

I am located in Portugal but I have a friend going to the US soon! Let me know your price including shipping and paypal fees.

I happen to have one, but sorry I'd like to keep it I can tell you the linear red's feel very nice in that sturdy case!

Seebart, are you drunk? Time to go to bed..

=P

[seebart]

No, but it is blue/grey ! And pretty rude you are too. OK so I do admit is Cherry MX.

Well, it's not an fc660c!

I'm just teasing you, though =) Also I'm super jealous of that wingnut! One of my hobby goals is to earn one some day!

I really just posted it to show of the wingnut. Of course mine has red Cherry MX's but the build quality is impressive! I'm sure the FC660C is of equal quality!

I can second the great build quality of leopold boards (have a fc660m with mx brown). The doubleshot PBT caps are truly excellent, I think I prefer them even over most OG cherry caps.

Agreed! Both the Topre and Cherry boards are very sturdy!

Just keep posting and you'll win one eventually!

Thank you very much, the keycap colors are much brighter in the picture though because of the flash. I love modern linear MX reds, a truly great switch from Cherry. The build quality of this Leopold is very high, really a joy to type on. One of my favorite "modern" KB's.

MX reds were one of the great disappointments for me, in the recent past. Scrcrcrcrrrcrrccratchy. Cherry should have been ashamed of themselves. Those switches well and truly ruined the MX Board 6.0 let alone third party keyboards for several years there.

I had quite the opposite experience, with this keyboard (photo from the seller, before it got to me, I'm to lazy to make another one - it's the same I mentioned in a PM to you). Very very smooth MX reds, maybe retooled ? (it's a new FC660M with PBT doubleshots):

I'm even thinking of taking MX-compatible sliders from my Novatouch, replace them with KBDFans sliders, and put the Novatouch sliders inside the FC660C I have, in order to move these ^^^ keycaps on it.

I got a 100% oposite experience with my Leopold, very smooooth and a really great build quality. Nice keycaps too.

Yes, the horrific reds I encountered were from 2015 or so, right at Cherry’s molding nadir. Pity. They soured me on modern Cherry as a whole. So much worse than “vintage” blacks. A real eye opener, in Cherry’s very own flagship MX Board!
