Datacomp DFK-515RT $50 +shipping opening, $125 +shipping BIN
« on: Sun, 31 August 2014, 14:38:10 »
I asked for caps to be pulled, but this board just screams Alps.  It looks the same as the case for the DFK102, so it may have Blue Alps.

I still have no clue what switches this has, so don't go bidding thinking it definitely has Blue Alps.

I see Deskthority wiki shows a Datacomp DFK-555 that has Futaba clicky, similar case design. Perhaps this is the same? I guess the similar numbers is no guarantee, as there are also Datacomp ALPS boards. Nice looking board.

It could be that too. If it is, it's way overpriced.

Seller refuses to pull a cap, so I'm going with crap, don't buy it.

Almost certain this is blue Alps, given the keycaps.

Nice board, though the .25-unit-shorter-than-normal right column of the main section is a bit funny. Looks like someone bought it.

Caps scream Alps to me too, but since they wouldn't pop a cap, I couldn't in good conscience call it Alps or recommend someone pay that for the board.

It's the shape of the caps and everything that makes me think Alps, but it could be anything. Hopefully whoever bought it shares what it is so we can add to the knowledge base.

I'd rather just use clicky modded Orange Alps.  I modded one the other day and, to me at least, it sounded and felt better than Blue Alps.
