I have a KBParadise V80 with some Matias in it already, so if I get my hand on any SKCM Blues they're going to go into there.

I'm almost scared to ask this...

Xerox DocuTech Lime Green Alps Keyboard. Dusty, but good contdition. All keycaps intact.

Edit: I'm looking for a fair price. Not astronomical prices. Well...unless a high price is fair due to rarity.

There's no way to price these at the moment. There hasn't been enough on the market to give an adequate price. I bought four of them for $80, but that was from a guy who wasn't a keyboard nut.

Pretty much, the price is whatever someone will pay for them right now, which could be anywhere from $100 and up per board depending on how badly someone wants them. That buy will determine the market price.
IMO, while they are rare, if someone knows where to look or has a friend who was in the printing business around the era when these were more relevant, then you could probably find them without much difficulty.

If you restore them, you could probably appeal to more buyers, though I'd imagine many of the potentials would just scrap them for the switches anyway.

I've paid between $20 and $50 for the sets I've found online or on craigslist. I know someone was selling AZERTY sets for a fair bit more than that. Since they're only really partial sets that require mods to flesh out, I personally feel that they're not worth more than $50.

Thanks. That's what I paid for it when I harvested them off a typewriter, so I'll see if I can get out what I put in.

You just got it yesterday, and you call it a daily driver, but you're already looking up prices to sell. This is so crazy, lol.

I bought mine for $59 (and it had 101 keys). It really depends on the demand. IF you throw out your line and go fishing for a while, you might run into someone who REALLY wants it. Otherwise, I'd say to expect average Alps prices, so anywhere from $70-100 or so. If the demand is high, I can see it tipping to around $200 or more if there's competition. If you really want to sell it, advertise on both of the forums, then list it on eBay.

SKCM Blue might not be as rare, but people are always looking for it and go crazy when an ANSI board is found, like $400 crazy. It's not fair considering the rarity of SKCL Brown in comparison, but that's demand for you.

It doesn't help that the rarity makes them obscure switches. Because they're lesser known, there's less hype around them. Combine that with often being confused with SKCM Brown, and yeah.

Oh, I hear you, haha.

Well, there are some people (at least one collector) I've noticed on eBay and from talking to friends who've sold some boards there that collect Korean Alps boards like the Leading Edge boards, the Epson AP1003A, and Visual terminal board, so I bet they'd pay a lot for your board. All of the aforementioned can also have SKCL Brown, but the Epson was undetermined, the LE was SKCM Blue, and the Visual was SKCL Green.

They all went for quite a bit though.

Looks like the Epson was SKCL Green, whoops.

It looks really similar to your Packard Bell. I wonder if it's a rebrand.

I wouldn't expect more than $90 to be fair for the base set which is what I paid roughly 2 years ago for mine, athough that being said didn't originative restock this somewhat recently?
