Looking to sell my collection, so I have a short list if you wouldn't mind appraising it for me.

GON Nerd acrylic tkl, lubed and stickered gateron clears with 55g sprit gold plated springs, also has the optional dampening.

winkeyless.kr b.face with hhkb layout and stock gateron blacks, winkeyless.kr pcb with rgb underglow.  This is the older 3 piece version of the b.face case with the light diffusion option. 

the van minivan keyboard in the teal color with stock clicky matias switches, also comes with the lightcycle keycaps minus one 2 space cap (it broke when trying to pull the cap off)

Thanks in advance!

IBM Wheelwriter 3 - works well, has ribbon but probably needs one.  All keys work and have great action.

Wheelwriter 30 Series II - works well, has ribbon but definitely needs one.  All keys work, wirh very good action, LCD works (as well as it ever did...), all the modes I know dtrt.  It looks like somebody tried to disassemble it and failed - the keyboard fascia is loose and I haven't tried to fix that.  The bottom sheild plate is bent, not enough to affect stability on a desk.  Battery has been replaced at some point with a Radio Shack 2-AA holder.  Ive never put batteries in it, so I don't know whether it works.  The typewriter works fine without it - it just doesn't save state or documents when powered off.

Both have all their body parts in good shape with minimal or no yellowing.  Indicator LEDs all work.  The mechanics are tight and smooth, I can't find any cracks or flats on the rollers, and the output is amazing.

I have a KBD75, that's in near perfect condition. It has the silver case. White LEDs back lighting. RGB underglow. But it has old stock box navy switches. What would you guys price this keyboard at?

I also have a Zeal60 Rev 2 with a brass plate, zeal stabs lubed, 78g zilents lubed, and a KBDfans 60% silver case with the weight ( https://kbdfans.cn/collections/60-layout-case/products/mechanical-keyboard-shell-anode-aluminum-shell-gh60-poker-60-mechanical-keyboard-shell THIS ONE) what would you guys this one at as well?

[freakazoid]

I have a Realforce 104UG in excellent condition. If I use it to harvest the hipro caps, how much can I sell the bare board for?

Quite fresh to these forums on the heels of buying my first board and looking to now sell realizing how daunting the build is.

RAMA M65-A - Space Grey w/Nylon Base
PCB & Brass Plate Upgrade.

Unbuilt and brand new in box.

Any information on a price for this would be greatly appreciated!

They tend to sit at around $500, so I would recommend starting around $450.

If you're only intimidated by the build, maybe consider sending to someone to have it built for you! There are a lot of folks who offer that sort of service at a reasonable price.

Thanks for the number! The year long wait for this board made me forget how much this was worth haha.

I actually thought about that but ended up thinking that was counter productive for initial reason for purchasing the board: Building it myself. The soldering mostly is was intimidates me, even after watching hours of tutorials and build guides. Looking solder-free boards like Rama's new Koyu for my first mech board.

Bummer to hear man! Soldering is pretty fun and almost therapeutic.

Good luck on your first mech build!

I have a DataHand (Personal A8000000 PS/2 model) that I bought new ~10 years ago with the LapLander mount (both in essentially unused condition) and all the original printed material that came with them. After mentioning on another forum that I had these, I was generally chastised for not using it or selling to somebody who might have greater need or appreciation for it and pointed to here for finding the best way to potentially sell it.

What general price range should I be targeting for something like this?

[subcat]

just curious about kmac 1 pricing, particularly a silver 1.3

built professionally, very minor imperfections

thanks

[LightningXI]

Seen most sell anywhere from 300 to 600. The higher end sits for a while.

I am thinking about selling my WASD V2 TKL. I modded it to lubed mx clears and added dyesubbed thick pbt keycaps from imsto. Can anyone tell me what it is worth?

You'll probably be able to get back what you paid.

Hi guys,

I have to sell my keycap collection due to a financial situation that I must fix. The thing is though, I’ve not kept up with prices for 2 years, so I need to do a price check here to see what I really have.

Most of these keys I did not win in a raffle but I paid for, at top dollar (including the colonel and brobot), from other people.
None of these keys have ever been used.

So here goes.

—————————-

DSA Hyperfuse (base set), unused, new in plastic as originally shipped. Bought from originative 2 years ago.

Calm Depth, the original set (base, with number pad) - bought from originative 2 years ago. Unused, new in plastic.

GMK red alert. New in plastic.

how much should a KMAC LE unbuilt kit fetch ? I've been trying to trade but without success so I'm thinking of just straight out sell it. Do you guys have an idea ?

huh, how much would be a VE.A with Tealios and a 910 PC be worth ?

EDIT: these keyboards have been offered to me, and I think they'd be worth more than what you said ? I'm just curious, I'm not too knowledgeable when it comes to customs

VE.A probably in the $600-750 range.

910PC "market-price" in the 700+ range.

With the vast number of available customs nowadays, all but the most popular ones have had a bit of a price decline.

[Myoth]

VE.A probably in the $600-750 range.

910PC "market-price" in the 700+ range.

Yeah, so that brings me to wonder why the KMAC LE is worth between 300 and 500 when the items I have been offered have both a higher value. I don't question your price checking skills, I'm really just curious. Some folks told me 800usd but I didn't believe them since it's such a huge number and past sales showed that it wouldn't go for near ar much as that but ugh, I can't quite figure out a stable price for it. Sorry if I'm being rude or anything since you provided me a number in the first place.

I guess the LE price is very volatile since there are so few out there. But for the VE.A and the 910 we have much more recently sold that it's easier to get a real price estimate. The LE should be worth around 600 imo but if there is a buyer who is really keen/big interest you can get more.

Pretty much what Sig said. The thing about KMACs is also that they've been characterized by a lot of past owners. Some say they're pingy and hollow, some say they're some of the nicer boards they've used; it's all over the place. There's also KMAC 1, 1.2, 2, LE -- all of these iterations of basically what is the same keyboard design. I think just the fact that the keyboard is old and iconic doesn't necessarily make it more valuable than others. We see competitive prices at around 400 for custom TKL kits of similar quality with great QC. Group buys opening so frequently also mitigates a lot of the interest in older, simple designs. Overall it's just that the demand isn't there for a KMAC TKL (different story for Happy or Mini), when there are so many other appealing options. As opposed to it, the VE.A is unique in being an ergo split 75% with an appealing RGB underglow look. The PC 910 is unique in that it's one of the first polycarbonate-made customs by a prolific and renowned keyboard designer (TGR/yuktsi). The KMAC, in popular view, pales in comparison in features and intricacies in design. (Note: I don't agree with this. I think KMACs are interesting)

I'm fully aware that you require a post score of 25 or higher to sell but I just do not have the luxury of time with a work and three children to get that score up. I still have a Rama Works M65-A unbuilt and new board for sale but prices I've seen go from $400-$600 in varying forms.

I'm just wanting this board gone but cannot post it anywhere. What's a legitimate selling price and where else is it possible to find a home for this set?

Thanks.

Consider $350-450.

You can also sell on /r/mechmarket on reddit, Ebay, among other places.

I have a KBD75, that's in near perfect condition. It has the silver case. White LEDs back lighting. RGB underglow. But it has old stock box navy switches. What would you guys price this keyboard at?

I also have a Zeal60 Rev 2 with a brass plate, zeal stabs lubed, 78g zilents lubed, and a KBDfans 60% silver case with the weight ( https://kbdfans.cn/collections/60-layout-case/products/mechanical-keyboard-shell-anode-aluminum-shell-gh60-poker-60-mechanical-keyboard-shell THIS ONE) what would you guys this one at as well?

lmao I came to this thread wanting an answer to the same question, and the keyboard you described is like the exact one I just got. Then I realized it was yours lol.

Bumping for visibility though as I am trying to sell now too (I know I can't yet but a price check would help me see what its worth)

For both of you, basically adding up the retail cost (switches and build don't often add much, if at all, because people prefer kits rather than built keyboards) is the value.

Hi there, I'm new to this site, and I have a G80-3494LYCUS-0 keyboard I've got a few days ago I wanted to show you guys:



More pictures here:

https://imgur.com/a/2ktdXlF

What little information I was able to find on this board, is that apparently it was Cherry's first board with red switches and was only sold in Asia. Is that right?

I've bought it here in Germany from a nice Indian guy who came here to study computer science

I'd appreciate any further info on this board, like, did the seller convert it to blue LEDs or where those standard? Is this keyboard still being made?

Any idea what keycaps are on the keyboard? They are PBT and feel rather nice and look very well made.

Lastly, I paid €50 for this keyboard and the box with the original (PBT) keycaps, was that a good price?

Thank you guys

Not really sure about the info on the board. I believe the LYCUS is discontinued now.

Based on the L preceding the model name, it's likely these are laser engraved keycaps.

50 EUR seems fair for what it is, but I wouldn't pay any more than that, if ever.

Given it's Cherry MX blues, no more than $20 or $30.
