is the bottom row offset for those cherry boards?
The spacebar and entire bottom is indeed unusable on any modern board, it is offset.
You will have to buy mods from EK or Originative. i already have some GMK mod sets (purple, RGB, and CYMK), so it did not bother me. Originative sells GMK spacebars or SP DCS black spacebars work just fine from experience if you want to keep it on the cheap.
As a disclaimer in case anyone wants to buy them off of the ebay lot page which still has 5 available. here is what you have to deal with
1. The caps lock is offset and will not work on a modern OEM board and on custom board you need to resolder the switch
2. The spacebar is offset and can not be used on any other board
3. The Alt, Ctrl, Menu, and Windows Keys for some reason are always pad printed--its something they did on all these boards.
4. ......that does not really matter because the entire bottom row is offset and unless you get creative with your soldering or glue, you must buy mods
5. There is shine on oddly specific keys as these are POS boards, for example WASD on them are pretty much untouched. If shine is a problem for you, well go PBT because you can shine a 200$ GMK set in only months.
