You guys should order from EliteKeyboard. It's in stock.

But I will keep bumping this for people who would be interested in purchasing one.
Anyone interested in buying some?

O_O.........u gotta be kidding me
-
Damn would jump on this if it was 45g
edit: did they make anniversary 45g?
-
?_? in a good way or in a bad way
-
Damn would jump on this if it was 45g
it's the color scheme! not the switch type!
-
These come in only tenkeyless form? And the silent variable means? (i presume something to do with the weight of the keys, maybe all below 45g or 50g?)

My order was shipped out to fedex an HOUR ago....
-
Only tenkeyless. silent variable means variable but with less sound

I'm assuming you bought yours from Taobao?
-
Damn I would so love to have a full sized version of this board :) Heck I'd love to have any realforce with either all 45g or less switches :))
-
No i coudnt find one so I had to settle for a realforce on EK....arghhhhhhhhhh. I jumped the gun on it after I couldnt find one over the past couple days...

There's always an easy way of using number pad embedded among 37 keys

Oh.. Well you can jump on this one too! Best color scheme from what I can tell. Only a small batch is released.
-
When would you be able to ship yours out?
-
I'm assuming 3-4 weeks Max 1 month?

I just got my 104pro in yesterday; 30g uniform. :bounce: Pretty sure you can't find them at the moment but I heard some sellers on taobao will restock sometime soon.
-
I think I might jump on this, but it might be the end of the week before I'm 100% sure. So the variable silent is the same price then? Nice... Really is too bad they didn't release the 10th anniversary edition in a 45g version.

So how's that 30g uniform feeling?
-
Oh man. I've got to ease up on the keyboard buying. I just got a 55g 87UW, but I'm really tempted by the silent variable one...

I would kill for one of those. I'd be happy with even a 45g version as I'm a big fan of mx browns so for me 45g or less is perfect. This will probably sound totally newbish but we can't buy stuff directly from Taobao without a Chinese middleman or "agent" , right?

If you have a Taobao and Chines bank accounts yes ;-)

Awesome. Let me get working on that right away :) lol
Another issue, is it me or is taobao's website super slow to the point of being utterly unusable.
Edit: ok, I guess it's just with Chrome - damn you google!

What is different between realforce87 10th and realforce89s 10th
-
What is different between realforce87 10th and realforce89s 10th
color scheme. different keycap color, casing, led color
You can also swap control and capslock vor VI users. I don't know if this works for RF87
-
What is different between realforce87 10th and realforce89s 10th
ANSI vs. JIS

oh misread the question
-
Yeah you can swap the ctrl and caps lock on the 87u

Didn't they make 45g uniform instead of 55g for the 87U 10th anniversary? That's what I saw on Taobao when they first came.
But it's good to know there's 55g uniform available since I'm looking for a black 55g 87U.
Please count me in for a 55g one. :D
-
Could I buy just the keycap set for the 10th anniv. 87u only? :)
-
^ no, because they are sold with the board only
-

If that's possible, then most likely nobody will buy the keyboard. :P

make sure you pm me so I can make a separate folder to keep updating

that's probably impossible lol.. unless someone is willing to part away with theirs..
-
btw if I remember well the keycaps on the board sell by Leopold have the Korean symbols plus the standard letters ( English alphabet)

Topre for muslims XD
Yay you fixed it! Would buy this if I didn't have chinese family.
-

Standard english version and korean version not KORAN!
-
KORAN!!
-
my mistake ;-) Korean. I talked to them several weeks ago and they had the Korean version only
-
yes it's true. They had very very few stocks for English versions. Hopefully more English batch will come out on May
-
So...how would warranty issues be handled? I know these are reliable and all, but what if the worst does happen?
-
If we have until May this won't be an issue. Go ahead and put me down for a 87 variable silent. PM sent.

Bomp

bump

How much is this? i m not good with these stuff, how do i buy it?

Sorry if i am misunderstood here but i am kind of new to this forum. Let me get this straight if i can...
This is a group buy for the keyboard above since typical North Americans cannot buy from these sites. I would definitely be in to buy a 55g uniform. What does the final cost look like? (Before shipping i would presume)
Cheers!
-
Mark me down for a uniform 55g please.
-
Put me down for a variable silent for now
-
im interested in a variable
-
I really shouldn't, but I'm interested in a variable silent one.

How much is it shipped to Canada?
-
Please put me down for an 87 variable, regular blend.
-
Will take one.
Variable silent please ~~
-
I will take one, 55g please.
-
ooh, that looks slick.
-
How much are these all in?
-
around 380-400
-
Put me down for a variable silent model (PM coming). That color scheme is so sexy.

I'm broke and I'm out, humble apologies
PM'd jrockroll
Sorry guys!

Sorry guys!
Doesn't look like this is going to happen for another month anyway, feel free to stay in. :)
-
I'm sorry if this has been already asked, but what's the price?
I'd like 45g also! (or even 35g!)
-
no 45g was made.
Only the 3 options.
I'm guessing about $380-400 depending on shipping fee.

So i was dead on =). Is there a more specific ETA on this??
-

thanks but I'm forseeing having to tighten the purse strings around then and for the forseeable future, I know this isn't really a group buy but I don't like the idea of inconveniencing jrockroll so it's better to get out sooner rather than later
... not that he is going to have any trouble moving them ;)
-
End of April-Early May
They say they'll restock
-
:°(
I just want the keycaps ......
I don't like the grey at all, I just want to harvest the keycap set for the blue-grey keys to go on my 105UB. They're the only refined-looking coloured keycaps for a Topre; EK's selection is very brash and bordering on retina searing, though I was hoping that someone who bought the lettered green set for use on a HHKB would sell me just the function key row from it that they're not using (ditto the blue set for the arrows).
I can't even sell my keyboard and buy this, as they don't do this in 105-key.
-
going to have to back out, sorry. little too expensive.
-
I am going to have to back out on this one too, sorry I found one on deskthority for slightly cheaper.
-
Sorry, but I think I'm also going to have to back out, since I really need to tighten my keyboard budget. :(
Anyone who doesn't already have a couple RF boards should definitely take advantage of this though, since Realforces are amazing and the 10th Anniversary ones look really classy. I'll be watching this thread and there's a slim chance that I'll try to get back in, but I'm attempting to slow down with the keyboard purchases a little.
-
Shameless bump..
Just realized quite a few people have backed out.
Is this still on? If the price range is even higher because of fewer people, I may have to do the same unfortunately..
-
It won't be higher I'm assuming. But it is still on.
-
Gotcha.
-

I don't think I've seen a price for this. Has one been stated?
-
Yes, there is a price on cyclonchuah's thread on deskthority, but this is ballparked here around 380-400 as mentioned above.
-
May be in for a 55g uniform.
-
Damn it. I would love to get only the keycaps. :shocked:

still no 2nd batch yet. Be patient

Thanks. At least we have thing to wait for :-)
-
im actually in the process of saving for hd800s now.
will have to back out of this for the time being. unless it's still not on in like a month time.
-
There's a rumor that it will be after May.. don't worry about it. I will ask everyone once again later on.
-
Thanks jrockroll, I will possibly be back in on this depending on the timing. if it's just a matter of you letting us know in the thread when they become available and then deciding, that would be sweet... rather than committing to something that might not happen for a couple of months
-
I would love to get my hands on a variable silent keyboard, and I have no problem with waiting a bit.

Just wanted to let you guys know I played with one of these yesterday in Akihabara, but for some reason my phone deleted the picture I took. There were a couple of ANSI versions at that store (it wasn't the topre headquarters, I may go there tomorrow morning) for around $250 if anyone wants one. There was an 86UB and an 87U.
There was also a bin, yes a bin, of HHKBs. As they were only 3,000 yen (about $35) and when I typed on them they felt like a membrane (albeit a really really good feeling one) so they're probably the lite version.

That would be the HHKB Lite 2 due to the arrow keys. $35 is a good deal if you're into 2KRO and compared to Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Happy-Hacking-Keyboard-Lite2-Black/dp/B0000U1DJ2).
-
Still want a variable silent. I'm already on the list.
I really wish the HHKB Pro 2 keys felt the same as the Realforce keys.
-
pretty sure there's no 10th anniversary 86u ANSI board rag.
-
That's not what I was saying, I was saying that there were other boards that were ANSI that I could bring back, but the 10th anniversary one I saw was the Japanese ver. so I doubt anyone would want it. Sorry that was definitely unclear.
-
ah, ok. cool. enjoy jp!
-
I would LOVE to get an 86U, but my wallet is over-tapped as it is, and I've already bought 2 87U's this year...
-
You guys should order from EliteKeyboard. It's in stock.
I did just that. I think they were in stock for about an hour on Friday morning then it was removed from the products page entirely and I haven't seen it back. I don't know how many thay had in stock but it couldn't have been more than two or three. I've only seen one other GHer post that he also got one of them.
-
I also managed to order it from EK, was the fastest ordering process I´ve ever done :p
-
Price?
-
I wasn't clear on what this interest check is for. Are you ordering in a large group from a specific vendor? I would be interested in the 55g uniform.

i also want a 55g uniform
