This board has been on ebay for a year iirc..
I paid my wey keyboard for $150 shipped, but mine doesn't have the secondary-legend. If those secondary-legend are made by GMK, I would pay up to $250+shipping since this is the only board I have seen that has this, but honestly it looks like someone use a pen to write those legend on the caps...

I've been on the hunt for a good wey board, all the recent ones on Ebay have been listed for ridiculous prices.

I first was interested when I saw Photoelectric's Lightsaver with some wey caps on it, I would prefer to have just an English version if I could ever find one.

I like the windowed keys.  Bright colors aren't my thing

if you are only looking for the windows caps, it would be a really really bad price to get them

These have a weird connector on them - has anyone managed to get one working on a modern PC?
"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

Photoelectric had all the connectors and what not for hers. I believe there's a photo out there somewhere of it hooked up and working.
