From the UK eh?

Yeah, maybe someone closer to the seller can snipe it. Not going to be getting a Topre board (at least for now). GL if you're interested.

That's crazy for a Depth Black!  But then I remembered where I am posting.
"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

No, I just mean Geekhack, where Clacks and Clack prices are the obsession.

That's been listed for a while.  Nice to know that he thinks a black CC is worth $100 to him.

Is depth black that common?  I assumed a $100 is pretty common for even a common CC.

You can get them cheaper.

If anyone is crazy enough to snipe this when it is already at about a reasonable maximum for a non-rare Clack.

It went under the reserve once already, when the final bid was around $70 USD, I think.

I don't get the Clack thing.

If that's how you define Geekhack spirit, yes. However, I would rather spend $100+ on something a bit more... I don't know, substantial.
