Leading Edge DC-2214 Blue ALPS?
« on: Sat, 11 October 2014, 19:29:04 »
Looks like these usually have blue ALPS but sometimes white. Either way it's ANSI layout and should have nice thick double shots.

It's a nice looking board but with the prices that most Blue ALPs stuff reaches these days I doubt it will be affordable.

Seriously?

Blue Alps in a native ANSI layout?

Awesome!

I don't have any spare cash, but I will watch.

I'm getting sea sick over all these Alps boards hitting ebay this weekend.  I've got two KBP V60MTS on preorder plus setting aside cash for Matias 60%.

Make it stop daddy!

If someone here takes this, I would love to know what the components really are.

ANSI-layout Alps with "standard" Enter are hard to find anyway, especially with good switches and caps.

Congrats if someone from here won this, I couldn't go above $105.  I'd be interested in knowing if they are indeed blue alps.

Since I've seen the XT style ones go for about $100, I'm surprised it wasn't much more.

I asked the seller to remove a keycap and to take a pic, but he never answered, so I assume this is the white alps version.  Hopefully, whoever bought it got lucky..
