How much are those Trik X_T boards new? Is that $740 a mark up or down?
I've been thinking about this thread since it posted last night, I really really want that board, but I cant pull the trigger at $740. Thats the highest price board I've seen since I've joined.
BASE KIT : HOUSING(Aluminum) 1EA + TRiK V2.1 PCB 1EA + PLATE(Aluminum, WK/WKLESS COMBO) 1EA + BOLT (2KIND OF BOLT) + Silicone cushion pad
$445 Paypal fee included (Excluding shipping price)
(shipping fee EMS(5kg) : $75)
$520
Estimate for building a different board from another well known Korean designer
Cherry MX switches(Brown(Vintage)/Blue(New)/Black(New)) - $40
(Clear(New) Stem Switches +$10)
Stabilzers - $8
Switch Lubrication - $30
Optional Switch Springs(for ergo switches)(50g/55g/62g/67g) - $5
Applying Switch Stickers - $12
(Optional Springs or Stickers must be applied with Switch Lubrication.)
Assembly with Stabilizers and Tuning - $55
LEDs with install- $45 the LED's were mounted under the PCB to make the case "glow" so I'm unsure about normal cost
Total $205
total shipped estimate $520 + $205 = $725
Shipping from Korea increased I believe in August. The case is a one off which would be more and the PCB was modified. Not really out of line of what others would charge when you add it up but it does give you "sticker shock" when you first see it.
