Well at least you've got a 23 dollars shipping cost.

Welp, guess I'm never getting one. Time to re-learn CAD and start making them myself. The keys will be just like all the other Micro Switch boards I've got.

Congrats to the winner, I guess. $10k is a lot for a keyboard.

Well, there is a chance that this won't be paid for. Heck, I had a $40 trackball that someone didn't pay for.

The seller could just make a second chance offer to the next highest bidder.

Economy shipping? No, I would demand overnight delivery.

Hope they don't just put it in a bubble mailer envelope. I've received keyboard confetti from sellers trying to cheap out on shipping that way.

Even insured shipping would need to be insured to the full amount. “How much is this worth? Ten what?” Fills in form for human believable value of $10 US.

I once received a KPT board from the Ukraine that was just wrapped in bubble wrap and tape. KPT boards are built out of basically nothing so I was surprised it made the trip unharmed. I would be very upset for an expensive purchase to get shipped like that
