$60 USD Blue ALPS "Gaming" Keyboard?
« on: Wed, 28 March 2012, 08:40:09 »
Browsing eBay, I stumbled upon this thing. I couldn't find anything about it anywhere else. It's apparently some sort of unbranded gaming keyboard that uses ALPs Blue switches.

Anyone have any information on this thing?

Reminds me of a Plasti-Dipped Focus FK-2001 without the cover. But no, I know nothing about it.
i have seen unix admins with john deere trucker hats, and even seen a man in a nascar shirt correct a passerby's klingon.

I wouldn't buy it, I never trust no name brands and usually cheap=low quality.

Although I'm not into "gaming" keysets, feels kinda stupid to have extra grippage on a key.

Hahaha.

They tried putting these on NR auctions a few months ago, ended up getting around $30 average each.

These are NOT blue alps,, they're the knock off alps... but i mean,, is there really a difference... mehh... probably not

I mean a knockoff keyboard is very different from a knock off iphone,,,

Coincidentally, someone write a review on it today/just now, though it is in Chinese, LOL...
So if you are interested, you need to create an account of that forum and then log in to see those pictures of it.
