Short backstory: I got a keyboard from my company and made a thread about it and then infinity cleaned, retr0brighted, and tested it. I want to sell it but I don't know how much it's worth.

TL;DR: Price check for G80-11802LPAJA with JP layout that has been restored and tested (everything works)

Those boards are usually a fair price around $40 to $50 on the high end.  It might be worth a little more to someone due to the less common legends and layout or it could be worth less to people since it's not going to be an easy board to use.  The caps, while interesting, are thin lasered PBT which doesn't win you any points for pricing.

It's really just a novelty piece for a collector more than likely.

This might be interesting since the keyboard is OOS in the US and the colored keycaps are no longer being made...

I would say probably $200 shipped for the Realforce if it's in good condition since the 104b is $210 + shipping and you can get them for about $200 used.

The cap set would be $100 if it's in perfect condition, $70-75 if it's in fair condition.  You can still get them on Rakuten and have them imported with Tenso.

I have a Noppoo Choc Mini with cherry mx reds in near mint condition that I would like to get a price check on. The reason I say near mint is because I accidentally scratched off the "volume up" symbol on the side of the "E" key. I'm assuming this isn't a big deal for many since they enjoy custom keycaps. I used the noppoo on and off for a total of about 3 weeks and I just could not get used to the red switches (I very much prefer blue). The keyboard itself feels great but I can't seem to find one with blue switches in stock. I have all accessories including the box and original packaging.

Knock 10 or 15 dollars off what you paid for it. That seems fair to me.

So question on trade values. I have a F2 Red clack. On the clack thread it says it's worth $150. I don't plan on selling it, but would it be reasonable to hold it at this value in trades? And I am seeking Bro's v1 bots. I don't see them traded often and I know they may eventualy die off to people who leave GH and don't come back. But what are they worth tradewise? I only see them going up, as bro stated he will never make the v1 again.

That was as of June of last year. From current sales on eBay and in the trade forum, some fetch  up to $300. But I am not trying to milk my clack for $300 in trades. Just wanted to know what it would be worth compared to a V1 brobot.

If you're happy with the trade and the person you're trading with is happy, what does it matter?

In any case, this should be in the Clack Valuation thread, not here.  And $75-150 is the market price, though $30-40 is a reasonable price.

Personally I think a single-color F2 is on-par with a v1 Bro in terms of trade value.

MX Blacks

Can come with blank keycaps as shown or some standard non ninja Filco keycaps.
Obviously the top plate is missing. The board could be supplied without a top or with a CM Quickfire top for you to customise or with a Filco top for a bit extra. Any ideas on pricing?

UK shipping only, so prices in £

Thanks, Fuus

IBM Model M SSK '92 Part No. 1391472 FRU No. 1391987 I.D No. 5095195

They vary wildly.  Elecplus sold them for $75+shipping and I've seen them north of $200.  $150 is a more stable price, but I would put them at no more than $125.

And, unfortunately, your photo says little about the value since it doesn't show the internals.

$35 if you're lucky due to keys not working.  The most I've seen one go for in a decent amount of time is $50.

What people list it for is not the same as what it sells for.  The only ones I have seen sell for anywhere near $100 are BNIB with assorted accessories.

I would imagine that you could easily get $150-200 or more down in Oz.
Seems like there is always unrequited lust there and little supply.

“Any split that is higher than 5%,” the letter states, “will be seen favorably by the RNC and President Trump's campaign and is routinely reported to the highest levels of leadership within both organizations.”"

Could someone tell me how much is a KBP V60 with Matias quiet swtiches worth? It has been used for around two months. I once desoldered its esc switch and replace it with a clicky switch and later I swap back a quiet switch (but the swapped back one has a white stem, unlike other switches which have grey stem). I kind of want to sell my V60 and buy a HHKB after trying my friend's HHKB (now I kind of regret trying it :()

Also I have a Cherry MX blue QFR with Frosty Flakes controller and Vortex PBT keycaps. How much is this worth? (I don't use it very often. Thinking about selling it).

$325ish maybe.... Definitely not $450+ unless donor board is included.

You can get a type-s for $250-275 direct from PFU and buy a donor 55g board for $175-$200 and sell the donor board after the swap.

Maybe international buyers would be more due to shipping, import taxes etc.

MX Blacks

Can come with blank keycaps as shown or some standard non ninja Filco keycaps.
Obviously the top plate is missing. The board could be supplied without a top or with a CM Quickfire top for you to customise or with a Filco top for a bit extra. Any ideas on pricing?

UK shipping only, so prices in £

Thanks, Fuus
probably around a 100£ or a hundred quid as you brits say

How much is a like-new HHKB worth? I am thinking about buying one, but just in case if I don't like it and want to sell it, how much money can I get back? Thanks!

I've seen them sold anywhere from $215-230 LNIB. They seem to sell fast regardless.

I feel like $400 plus shipping is fair.
People in the 1980s, in general, were clearly just better than we are now in every measurable way.

The dumber the reason the more it must be done

My opinions is based by that I don't think soldering adds any value (you wouldnt buy a board with switches unsoldered for 50$ less than a soldered board). Also switch modding is worth 30$ tops on top of the ori price of blues (50$). But that's just my opinion
