yes, 100%! the font, profile and colour of the caps is a perfect match to even the most everyday topre keycaps that you'd find on a realforce, there's no question about it

Perfect, even if I don't have money right now I'll try to win the auction if the price remains low :D
EDIT: there is a bidder, if you're from this forum I won't make an offer

2 interesting keyboards in this lot https://buyee.jp/item/yahoo/auction/o324638687
First one looks to have very good keycaps and my gut says Cherry/Alps.
Second one is a beauty too.

I love the keycaps on that NEC - shame it (almost certainly) uses NMB dome with sliders.

For only 10 grand! What a steal.
I agree with both prices being absolutely insane, however the guy selling them stated on this forum (ebay section of marketplace) that they are placeholders for now, and he is accepting offers to see how much he can get.

I read that and it make sense. What does not make sense is the listing was originally for 8 grand, but he changed it to 10 grand. Better looking placeholder I guess?

Nah probably not. I know most Samsung branded boards have blue alps, but I’m pretty sure I distinctly remember this having Futabas.

If anyone is into Focus stuff, there are NOS FK-9200s in the original box for 20€.

Don't know if that is a good price, but since I do crave anything with Macro keys..

PBT ANSI layout alps caps have caught fire. This is probably around current market value I’d imagine.

IMO. Insane prices. Saw a SGI Bigfoot being sold on Italian Ebay site for 30 euro few months ago.
You can buy SGI bigfoots for around 100 UK pounds
