Hi there folks. Been a while. Checked in using Tapatalk and find out that there’s just too many [GB] and [IC] threads and my head hurts. I’m just reading up on those good old familiar threads - this one, “what’s bothering you” and “what’s in the mail”. Those good old days are gone. I feel like an old man asking these young kids with their uber-cool switches to get off my lawn. Maybe I should visit Deskthority too, lol. Did any 420 sales happen in the past 3 years? God, those were fun times!

So if something is no longer being produced and there are no other variants to be made in the market, but the popularity and rarity are high the price increases.  There are numerous artisans sold at $200+ that were originally purchased well below that, that's nothing new.

I meant the retail price of clacks like when he sold them and how on Elite Keyboards they were selling the leftover clacks for like 200 or something similar, which is why I wanted to know what the retail prices was. I understand how the aftermarket works there. (If you are referring to retail pricing than your wording must of confused me but I don't think you are talking about that)

Retail pricing isn't a real thing when it comes to Artisans

As low as $40 for a single color, and up to $100+ for more special stuff in the most recent FCFS sales on the forums.

Regardless of this, I don't mind the prices EK is charging, they clearly sell for that and its cheaper than what the aftermarket would be, I just wish Clack himself was getting some of the money

CC would sell the bi colored skulls for around 50 or so I believe, in the more recent sales that is. Brian from EK takes a pretty good cut if that's what you were wondering, he was selling leftover skulls on Ebay for a while too, but those were closer to market prices whereas the ones listed on EK were definitely way cheaper than what it'd normally sell for on the market. Hoping we'll get another sale from the man himself sometime. The sales were so hype.

Yeah thank you for that, while I was never around during the clack sales, I do wish there would be more of them.

They were stressful, but also really fun. And the Clackvent Radnelac events during the holidays were a blast also, but nearly impossible to win! Still fun tho. I miss it.

It really is a testament how much clackvents would bring this community together. A lot of higher profile members were really only here for them, and this community took big hits when CC rode off into the sunset. They were by far the most exciting times here, and always led to some delicious keyboard drama. The early days, before people started botting and flipping, were the best though.

Those clackvents seemed like a lot of fun, shame I missed out on them, but I don't think you can do them today. The only way I could see you doing them, if you made the only participants people who made accounts in the past couple years with more than 50 posts or something, but I guess that wouldn't fix botting and flipping. it's a shame but all good things do come to an end eventually.

Hey everyone, does anyone have any info about the geekhack tri colour skull, cause I'm not sure if it was a sale or a commision or something. I did see that there was an auction for this cap, but I have seen other photos of it (naasfu had a photo and remember bro caps took a photo of it, I can't find it though probably lost in post your clacks or something) so I'm not 100% sure. It looks so pretty so I just want to know info about it.

I think no matter how long it's been since clack left the hobby, all of use including people like me who were never around for the sales need clack therapy. Especially with aftermarket prices nowadays :(.

I hope I can get a clack one day...

Found out more about this, apparently there are only 1 mx and 1 topre and both people who own them will definetly not give then away lol.

On the brightside, lightning gave me the info/confidence to try and go for a single shot (a globe blue buckling spring) soon, now it would be just be the waiting game. Hopefully it comes quick
