I have acquired a Cherry G80-5000 by sheer luck and found out it's apparently at least 200$ worth, if not a lot more. What concerns me is that the price paid for it varies wildly, some sell for 50$, others for over 2,000$. I'm waiting for a PS/2->USB converter to arrive to test both its AT and PS/2 port.

As for criteria that might help with estimating its price:

- QWERTZ layout
- 17 F-keys (all F-keys on the left side)
- no Windows keys
- no num pad
- split mechanism, "legs", extending space bar work
- looks fairly new, has been seldomly used
- doesn't come in a box or with a manual
- FCCID: GDDG80-5000
- Article No.: G80-5000HAADE /07
- Serial No.: G  002116  H22

I'll take a photo soon once I've cleaned it properly.

Around $300.

Do you guys think it's worth it to trade a relatively-new-looking(no shine on spacebar) 45g RF87U with a 2 month old FC660C? I got the RF from a fellow GHer, and I just noticed when I squeeze the top and bottom layers together at the bottom left corner, the squeaking noise it makes is really annoying.

Would you care to explain? I am aware of the higher price tag of the Realforce, the keycaps and the extra function keys as well as the overall build quality, as well as the slight issue with the FC660C mini-usb port, it's stock keycaps and the loss of the function row and the home cluster, etc.

How much for the keycaps from this? They seem to be double/triple shot ABS and if I am not mistaken can also fit a topre keyboard. (I'll try to find my keycap puller soon to show pictures of the keycaps removed.

They haven't gone for more than $15 in the past.  And I think that was the shipped price.

150-200 probably. not useful for Kandy Keyboards because the bottom row is hard to replace (space bar specifically, iirc) but it's a great board. also someone might want it to ruin both it and a poor hhkb :P

They're neither.  There are some Brother typewriters with caps that work with Topre switches.  I believe some Brother typewriters are also Cherry ML.  I have never seen an MX compatible Brother typewriter.

I'll try and settle this later tonight by pulling off one of the caps and posting it here. Then we will know for sure.

You can get them here (select black from the drop down menu). You have to buy the spacebar separately.

Thinking about selling my gaming laptop since I never use it anymore.

Asus G73SW-A1 17.3" Laptop with Asus backpack/carrying case.
-17.3-inch Full HD display with resolution of 1920×1080
-nVIDIA GeForce GTX 460M 1.5GB GDDR5
-Intel Core i-7-2630QM
-12 GB DDR3 1333HMZ RAM
-Two 500GB hard drives

Purchased for $1681 3/10/2011 from Xoticpc.com. All in all good shape, some wear on the rubber texture but minor. Fresh load of Windows 7 Pro.

What do you think a good asking price is? Was going to try craigslist and/or local first.

Is this worth $20?
It's a lasered rubberdome, so no.

Cherry G83-6105LRPDE-0 RS 6000 M PS2 German 104 Keyboard WW4 E

Even though it's from World War 4?

So it is rubberdome, what do the keycaps look like underneath for cherry boards like this? Is it still the normal cherry keycap or is it a different design.

It won't fit on any mechanical.

New TX650, TX650 V2, or old TX650?  If it's the new one $60-70 shipped since, AFAIK, Corsair warranties don't transfer owners.

They're going for $15 shipped on eBay and they're a dime a dozen there.  Personally, I wouldn't spend more than $5 on one.

As for the value, well, do they fit on topre? That will determine whether they are worth something or zero. If yes, I'd say maybe $40ish? They are a cool novelty but since there would be severe profile mismatches, you probably wouldn't get a lot more than that. But that's just like, my opinion, man.
Please consider carefully before you decide to comment, for Jesus.

I just got a broken Epson Elite 300 typewriter, with what I think to be blue alps switches. The keycaps are what stand out though. They are filthy but if I clean them, how much do you think I could get for just the caps? Sorry for the ****ty phone quality! http://imgur.com/a/inUzm

That typewriter definitely does not have Blue Alps.

Get some better pictures. They may be these, but I kind of doubt it.  Based on those pictures though, there are definitely not Blue Alps since the stem design is completely wrong.

You might want to check in the Clack Info Thread and ask there since the price is rather subjective.
