Awesome looking stabiliser inserts
It's a Greenock Indy M no less, too bad about the dings on the case.

If you've got ~$6000 dollars to burn

And while your hauling from Japan, you might as well take these two Apple Adjustable Keyboards (one ISO (JIS?), with secondary japanese legends, and one ANSI) with one extended section, before seebart hypes them up. If I was hauling something right now, I'd probably pick them up.

And a M0110A J (nice keycaps)

I never hype anything from yahoo.co.jp since I never look there because it depresses me what I'm missing, only time I imported from Asia is when I got lucky with my FC660C from Hong Kong and that was well worth it.

But those are nice, I had seen the Adjustable with those keycaps but that M0110A is niiiiice... :o :shock:

Sometimes they do, it's like Ebay, but in Poland. It's nice living near German/Czech/Polish border. I can just send it to Polish post office and collect it there.

My God....I want it. I want it so bad. I've never done proxy stuff before though and it scares me.

Unless you're attracted by the keycap legends, here's one with Mitsumi switches: https://www.reddit.com/r/mechmarket/com ... rist_rest/

I'm sure you know better than me, but there's a chance they are not Alps, nor MX compatible?

There are various Japan services that can assist you, I'm sure they charge for their service personally I've never used one:

That's from a member here. I would say the board was from taobao.

I missed blaise's auction, damn it! If someone here bought this and only needs the switches, please sell me the board. I need the board to fix the keyboard on my Sharp X68000. I don't need the key switches.

This seller also has some other interesting boards in his store, some look to be WYSE re-brands with vintage blacks, I'm not sure about others though.

There was an omnikey 102 with blue alps posted for $255 - saw it in eBay, clicked the link and it was already sold! Looked to be in outstanding shape! Anyone snag it?

60 bucks plus shipping for an omnikey in reasonable condition. Has some stab problems on the spacebar.

Not that bad, more like heavier slightly "rougher" MX's.
