Wow that is an awesome haul, very generous. Shame I was not up earlier would have loved to grab any of those :) especially the Portal or Speckled keys. :P As I am just getting my first mechanical keyboard I don't have any keys to offer, but I will see if I have anything else I can give away :).

If anyone has a spare keycap puller though, preferably wire type I would really appreciate it. Just made an order on WASD and forgot to grab one so I would have to pay shipping again... doh.
Quick shoot them an email asking to add it to your order. They are exceptional with customer support. :)

If anyone has an MX green switch I would appreciate it :) would like to see before I buy a Uni keyboard whether I like greens or blues more.

I don't think you could answer that question with only one switch.  You have to type on them.  I will say this: it seems that a full green keyboard is trending right now but I'm pretty sure that Cherry intended that switch to be a spacebar only.  It is very heavy.

The game is great. Everyone has so many invites because if you're in the game, steam just keeps gifting them to you. You don't have to do anything really, they just come into your account.

The game is great and they are not short of players at all. But what better way to market it than making it a "closed" beta and giving out a bunch of invites so that every player ends up passing it on to x number of friends.

My signature hasn't changed since 2012. I should really update it.

Not sure if anyone here is interessed, i have a close-to-not working HTC Desire Z that i can give to you, i'm pretty sure the problem is that battery is probably dead.

http://img1.lesnumeriques.com/produits/291/10133/291_10133_2.jpg
(this picture is from internet, not mine, but it is the same phone.

i can send it with the cable, but withouth the usb-to-220V part.

i don't know about sending prices in EU, but i guess i can afford it myself as a plus =)

internationnaly i think it's better if you pay it, cause it can be pricy.

i live in swizerland so if you are around it's even chaper, post here or PM me if interested =)

Has anyone got a spare Tsangan off center Capslock they are willing to send me? Doesn't matter if the sides are marked, buckled or cracked.

Came up with another idea.

I have a R.A.T. 7 Contagion that I don't use.
Pay shipping and it's yours :) .

(The mouse is currently on hold while khaangaaroo makes up their mind :) .)


Shipping from Norway to anywhere is pretty expensive though. Off the top of my head a package with tracking is around 300NOK ($50), so it might not be worth it for most. But at least it's here if you want it. It might be cheaper to send it with just stamps, but I'll have to check that.


Edit: Shipping with tracking will be $55. Without tracking it's $35.

The small amount of money I could make on the stuff by reselling it wouldn't even come close to what I gain by giving it away.
Now if I was running a business this would be a different conversation.

It's sad that people have to ask.

I've always thought that it's good to gain back some of what you spent, but I guess that's a poor person's mindset^_^.

The mindset would be more of a person that has interest in monetary gain over selflessness. It has nothing to do with being poor or rich or wealthy.
Now please excuse me while I go bathe in my house full of gold and diamonds that I made while taking care of my father instead of working.

Wow very generous as always Glissant  ;D Why do I always miss these thing by like 5 minutes  :'( lol. I browse the site for hours, but go away for a short time and someone gives away free stuff  :))

On a serious note I also love the feeling of giving, I just wish I could afford to do it more often.

You can always afford it if you have something you don't need to use ;). Keep your eye on my signature in the future, and you might get lucky enough to win something not keyboard related =D.

fast fingers and not reading properly + eagerness = bad purchases

have going (UK) bits that others may want

5pin din male to ps2 female (yes I bought the wrong way round) - its an adapter with a cable between both connectors

ps2 female to usb male (the green one) - before I knew the difference between active and passive ;)

PS2 ball mouse from late 80's - shipped with my model m even though I said i didn't need it - its mint and serial

Green PS2 to serial connector (came with aforementioned mouse)

Happy to ship in UK just pay the minimal postage - or swap for other useless parts that I may be interested in (recent model M owner)

pm me if you want it all or just bits of it
