[WTB] Leopold FC660C
« on: Thu, 23 May 2013, 23:10:33 »
Hey guys, I would like to buy Leopold's new topre switch keyboard, if anybody is willing to part with theirs. Thanks!

Note: I'm in the U.S., so preferably a U.S seller.

All yours!

http://item2.gmarket.co.kr/English/detailview/Item.aspx?goodscode=353374845&pos_shop_cd=EN&pos_class_cd=90000003&pos_class_kind=T

$230 shipped supposedly.

I've read some negative reviews about gmarket, so I'm not going to risk anything. I would much rather prefer to buy one off someone here.

gmark price is a little higher than Leopold.co.kr I will check out their store and see...

But gmart looks like do international shipping, so someone can try it out too.

I believe one user on here tried to get something from gmark and had their credit card compromised and never received their order either....just FYI. Not saying that happens all the time but a word of caution.

@qtan: Thanks.

@ray4jc: That's the one that I read about, I really wouldn't want to risk something like that.

I have an idea. Why don't we email Leopold's official shop directly and ask them for direct shipping? I estimate they'd sell the keyboard (if they do it) for only 130 euros which is the Korean price plus 20 to 40 anywhere in the world.

OMG they also sell Korean printed keys for the same price. Droool.

Emailed them earlier today about shipping to U.S., but still haven't received a reply. :(

Okay, this is what the rep from Leopold's site replied with after I asked about shipping to U.S.



EDIT: He/she first messaged me with a link to the fc660c on ek, then I asked if it was possible to buy one straight from their store, and then got this reply.

Then what remains is for a guy to buy 200 of them wholesale  ;)

What?  :) He'll get them wholesale price for say 80 euros and then he'll sell for 120. Easy money.

PS. lol. that "OK, I see" sounds so decisive in the email. It's like being answered by the CEO. "OK I see little one.. no".

I really hope someone helps you out soon :)

It is an awesome keyboard and a much better value than a HHKB.

Update; since I was planning to sell my Choc Mini after buying the 660c anyway, I'm willing to trade my Noppoo Choc Mini White Version MX Blacks w/ PBT caps + cash (~$100) for the fc660c.

It's been used lightly for about a month and half, still in like new condition.

EDIT: Only thing about the Choc is that the led for the caps lock doesn't work, but it came like that.

Haha, thanks. I'm still kind of debating on who to buy it from. On one hand, price would be cheaper, but on the other, I'd have a sort of warranty.

Thought you were getting one from qtan?
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

I am, but I was just saying that if the one that ray was selling had some sort of warranty still available from ek, I would buy it from him. But I'm too late now, so doesn't matter anyway.
