Lol @ EK edition. Like they don't sell anywhere else

Glissant · « **Reply #2 on:** Fri, 25 May 2012, 18:06:38 »

I am guessing they call it that because of the price point? Oh... it's because it's uniform. LOL.
Anyway, those are some good prices =).

metafour · « **Reply #3 on:** Fri, 25 May 2012, 18:07:13 »

Red LEDs is the real differentiator I guess...

Non-EK Edition:

EK Edition:

EK Edition also doesn't come with the lavender WASD keys it seems.

the difference is red LEDs versus the regular which is blue LEDs

Shame that clears aren't included!

Don't feel too bad. WASD will have fullsize and tenkeyless Cherry MX Clear boards at the end of they year.

I will be buying one, I think that the WASD chassis is fulgy, too rounded and the bezel is pretty big!

4en · « **Reply #8 on:** Fri, 25 May 2012, 18:44:52 »

nice catch metafour! but i don't think the wasd lavender keys are even worth 10 bucks haha.
the red esc key looks better with the red LEDs too! just ordered it wheeee

bc2208 · « **Reply #9 on:** Fri, 25 May 2012, 18:54:44 »

Just bought a fullsize mx blue! I planned on buying it next week and hopped on the email right away!

MMB · « **Reply #10 on:** Fri, 25 May 2012, 20:06:21 »

Are the lavender PBT? I know they are ABS for the cherry boards

mkawa · « **Reply #11 on:** Fri, 25 May 2012, 20:12:58 »

Rafen · « **Reply #14 on:** Fri, 25 May 2012, 21:04:57 »

I wonder if they are having a sale on the Leopolds because they are getting the new ones in soon ? :eyebrows:

mkawa · « **Reply #15 on:** Fri, 25 May 2012, 23:22:06 »

or he's getting out of leopold products...

Either that or Brian is getting out of the business.

Wouldn't everything go on sale in that case? (HHKB, keycaps, etc.)

Internetlad · « **Reply #17 on:** Sat, 26 May 2012, 00:17:02 »

Glad I waited a few days to pick one up! obviously clearing out stock to bring in the 700's with PBT caps, but i'll be replacing them anyways so big deal!

digitalleftovers · « **Reply #18 on:** Sat, 26 May 2012, 02:17:45 »

It's nice to see 87u's at lower prices. I might even pick up an all white one.

longweight · « **Reply #19 on:** Sat, 26 May 2012, 03:19:03 »

How much are they usually?

4en · « **Reply #20 on:** Sat, 26 May 2012, 03:27:14 »

They were like 290-310 before the drop

Internetlad · « **Reply #21 on:** Sat, 26 May 2012, 09:33:13 »

They don't have the clear leopolds for sale for 89, pity.

I wish they did because I really wanted to try that switch.

It's basically a really heavy brown. Think brown but harder to press than black.

That is clearly FUD and not fair to Elitekeyboards.

"Female Urinary Device" ? Hey, I had to Google it, but I don't understand the connection. (JK)

Why is EK always changing their prices?

Not unless he's soldering the stuff himself. Costar doesn't use clears and it's mentioned nowhere in his timeline for new products.

I'm kind of upset about the sales, not that the sales are happening, but I bought my keyboard for 99 dollars, and three days later it's 89 QQ

I would email them. They might be cool and refund you, or send you some swag. like a WASD cluster or something. You never know...

falconpauunch · « **Reply #29 on:** Mon, 28 May 2012, 17:01:23 »

I did email them, they haven't sent anything back, most likely because of memorial day weekend.
