g80-5000 only $728.00USD!
Just a word of advice on high profile vintage items, always contact the seller first and ask for pictures of the exact board they have in stock. I had a Peacock lined up and made the purchase, thankfully I saw the pictures before Superbuy confirmed my order because while it was a Peacock, it wasn't the one with the big logo I wanted and was significantly yellowed. They will often also tell you the item is "not good, not bad" which means untested.

Oh okay, thanks for letting me know. I have a few more listings for Model F ATs at home in my notepad collection, I will have to ask the sellers. I bought an off-brand DolchPAC that was out of stock, they removed the listing (It's a page that just says the "baby((product))" has temporarily left the shelf.) and then when they informed Superbuy it was not in stock, they returned the listing back to normal. :lol: if it is out of stock why wouldn't they just leave the out of stock page? :?:

Here's something you don't see every day g80-0832H:
Pretty awesome! Very pricey though. Another thing to note is sometimes the sellers list items with absurd prices which are actually not for sale and only for show. For instance I contacted a seller about a set of OG dye-sub Peacock caps listed for 9999RMB, I offered $250, but he said it was a part of his collection and not for sale. Understandably so.

Oh no that's a really awesome joke ... how do you come up with these gems?!

A kick in the nuts ... OMG I'm cracking up! hahaha you get it? Cracking up like a nut that gets kicked!

You should do stand-up comedy in Kazakhstan, that's how funny you are!
If you think I am boring, annoying and offensive, then why keep coming back?
If you don't mind pissing yourself off to crack me up,why should I mind?
If this is the way you choose to enrich our lives and entertain us, then just keep on doing it.I cherish foes as much as I cherish friends.

It must be a cultural/language problem that you don't realize what a clown you are making of yourself.

I don't think it is a cultural/language problem,
but rather that he is just dumb.
He obviously believes he is impressing us :lol:

Ail said he has a lot in his notepad,so I think we need to wait more than 90 seconds. I'm really glad he joins in, for I am mainly focusing on buckling springs and subliminally ignore Cherry keyboards, I know little about Cherry anyway...Ail suppliments this thread greatly.

@KBDFR and wodan,
You haven't answered my questions,what? too dumb to recognize the questioning mark or you need more men combine together to answer it? Again: If you think I am boring, annoying and offensive, then why keep coming back?

Impress me,surprise me, let's see what new tricks you guys have in your insult repertoire except for those middle school bully cliches...come on.

That's the first sensible thing to come out of this thread, you got a PM from me BTW. This entire thread is not sarcastic, although I'm still not sure what it's purpose is.

Because ignoring a problem, doesn't solve a problem... If the stuff you're posting would just go uncommented it would throw a very bad light on the site.
There are probably a lot more people offended and annoyed by you, they just don't think it's worth posting.

Me either I guess. I'm sure if people are really interested in using Taobao they can find stuff on their own volition. It's really not that difficult.

Are there users here that are offering proxy services for these TaoBao offerings?

Most of these offers are very nice but not really cheap. Adding proxy/shipping costs, you have to be a real collector to go through the trouble of getting one of them.

Well, the whole other stuff aside, I thought *that* was the real reason of this thread ... (see 1st post offer)

Nah, until now I was one of those who "just don't think it's worth posting". But as much as I like seeing the stuff you dig up from Taobao I dislike the shit you are posting besides it. So getting rid of either posting nice keyboards or posting shit would solve the dilemma of looking or not looking at this thread. Now after getting my thoughts about that out of the way I'll most probably continue to just not bother because I really dislike "the sound of a troll fapping at the attention he's getting". ;)

Nothing speaks against this thread, as everyone knows we do have a very prominent [External] Great/Interesting Finds thread in place.

I would recommend starting this thread from scratch then, list the available items in the OP and update that accordingly instead of spreading it over 7 pages of on/offtopic discussion

Oh yeah and list the price with every item ...

I'm going to do something that I hate to do and that I have never done before. Closing this.

Interesting finds can go in the relative thread. Proxy/resell/whatever offers can go in the marketplace.

Now behave.
