I just ordered a used Topre Realforce 87U silent with all white keys for $217 shipped on Amazon.  The person had just put it up and I confirmed what it was and bought it on the spot.  Seems like it is a really good deal for the regular version let alone the silent one.  Just pinging GH to make sure it's as good of a deal as I think it is :)  Thoughts?

EDIT: This turned out to be an 87U, not an 86U as the seller had accidentally listed it as! :P

That's about average for a used variable weight Topre, not a bad price at all.


Enjoy!

The Deskthority Topre wiki doesn't list the 86U as having a silenced model.  You might want to double check that.

Thanks for the heads-up, I went ahead and followed up with the seller on what he meant by this being the "silent" version.

Turns out this is the all-white 87U silent, the guy mistakenly listed it as an 86U.  Awesome!

I paid $360 including shipping&taxes for my silent white/gray 87u. Great find.
