Afternoon.
I'm on the lookout for some 30g Topre domes for my HHKB, as well as a full set of 90+ silent purple sliders.

Any offers would be appreciated!

Sounds like taste to me. The only good HHKB is a silenced HHKB, in my book, and after my second NIB experience I’m curious about those 30g domes as well. A variable weighted Realforce is no good home for them!

This would take care of most of what you need. Not sure if it’s in your budget though

Oh yeah, 100%. I've been using a Niz 35g keyboard these past few months, and while I REALLY like it and the lighter weighting, I have a perfectly usable HHKB that I've had stored away and thought 30g domes would benefit it.

Niz? Quietly rescinds the thing I said about good taste. ;)

Lol, despite what you may have heard this particular one is actually really nice. Sliders feels smooth, stabilizers are pre-lubed, double shot caps, and soft linear-like keyfeel. However.. I definitely want that oomph of Topre's famed cup rubber

It's the domes—and therefore the feel—I’m most focussed on. Also a real stickler for Helvetica dyesubs, and the HHKB is my Gold Standard Layout, which every other board is weighed against—or converted to, when I can!—so it's a hard, hard contest to come at the King.

Yep, the ultimate layout IMO would be the Sun unix full-size layout
