I'm not the seller, but I have bought some and can confirm they are in good shape

These are not "gaming" boards, but they are great office keyboards.

I have a very similar one that I found at work. It's a G81-11900 with black switches. It works great once it's all cleaned up and the track pad is a neat little detail.

I've seen g80-11900 boards (MX switches)
g81 keyboards typically have MY switches (but accept MX keycaps)

But I also had 2 keyboards made by keysource international (rebranded cherry g81 boards) - and they had vintage black MX switches.  Still scratching my head on that one...

People tend to snatch up the g81 boards w/ black keycaps for harvesting.

I like the touchpads for fall-back, but wish the buttons were more durable.

If your buttons break (touchpad), you can fix them using a thin sheet of ABS (talk to anyone with a 3d printer) and some ABS slurry (glue made with scrap ABS disolved into acetone).

Pretty cool.  CDW had some in the outlet that were brand new similar to these, but not at this price.
