Looks like a base set, modifiers, and a numpad, but then a few weird ones - the Fn and RCTRL are wide, and the RSHIFT and numpad 0 are small. Your best bet would be DSA blanks, and you'll need the standard base set, the standard modifier set, the numpad set, and then grab an extra 1u key for the numpad 0, two 1.5u keys for the Fn and CTRL, and a 1.75u key for RSHIFT. Should run about a C-note with shipping.

Isn't that just an 1800 layout though?

Maybe? I'm not that well-versed. But if you mean this one, then they're slightly different:

Do you know how much a unicorn vomit DSA set would cost? It is 99 keys in total. And can't OG Cherry sets be found like this? People found some for their CPSQ's

Yeah, it's the layout that like the RS96 and CPSQ use which is a modified 1800 layout.

I think Granite would cover it just fine, might just need some extra modifiers.

Thanks! Sadly Granite won't be running anytime soon due to the huge backlog at SP. I will look into that, but as a plan B, do you know what set that those OG Cherries came from in the picture that I posted?

I'm not 100% sure but it looks like some sort of a Dolch?  You may also want to look into GMK sets, as I believe most if not all of their sets come with 1800 compatibility.

What's the value of an original set of keywells from a Kinesis Advantage, with their stock MX Browns and keycaps? I'm definitely never going to switch back to the originals.

JTK Purple keyset used for a month?

[Moistgun]

Don't be mad at me if this question should be obvious.

I have two Model M's.
Both tested working.
Both disassembled and fully cleaned.
One has a cable, the other, does not.





The older one's foot is broken.


What difference would it make in the value if I bolt modded them?

[mike52787]

Model Ms usually sell for about $125 after being bolt modded, in fact I just sold mine yesterday. It isnt a difficult process, just time consuming.

Its just a matter if my time is worth the difference in value in the end.
Im glad you sold it. for 125 + shipping?

I can probably do them both in 2-3 hours. But if it only increases the value by 10 bucks, I wont do it.

[mike52787]

I have an IBM Model M2 That is fully working, I recapped the controller board, and there are no issues with it. There is a small crack in the wrist rest part, but other than that its in great condition. I think its worth about 65$, if Im wrong, let me know.

Wow, did you pay 115 each for those boards? if so, you massively overpaid. Yeah, mine was 125+ shipping.

No I didn't pay 115. I was asking if you sold yours for 125 successfully.

I was saying how much for the model Ms stock. if I can get a good price, lets say 115 than cool. obviously thats a huge exaggeration. Im assuming a clean working model m is 50-80, but I have no idea.

If you got 125 + shipping, I might as well just bolt mod them and post them up for that then.

sorry if that was confusing. reading my previous post, I can see how you thought that.

[mike52787]

Yeah, you can get 40-70$ for a working, unmodded model m, you were right on the money! Definitely do the mod, its worth it.

I cant believe the value added for that mod! thats crazy. Looks like Ill be tackling them this weekend.

thanks for the comments.

I wish I could comment on the M2 value, but I cant weigh in really.

[fohat.digs]

I am glad that bolt-modding Ms is bringing a premium. I sold a few maybe 3 years ago and got $60-80, with one exception where I got over $100.

How much can I get for 90 mx clears obtained from gon with golden 62g SPRiT springs installed, not-lubed (mint, unused). Eu.

[quochung1989]

360c with 65g lubed vintage blacks.  I know prices have been all over the place, just looking for what is somewhat current.

Maybe 1k$?

I got a set of Cherry Thick PBT DyeSubs black font/ white caps in German ISO layout. The Spacebar is missing and Control, Alt (1,5u) aswell as the tab caps dont fit on modern keyboards, other than that the set is a full 105-key one and in pretty good condition. What could I get for it?

[Tennobanzai]

Anyone have ideas how much a used black M13 in good/fair condition and brand new but opened Model M is worth? M13 has a tan color cord that has a small cut it in and the body has 2 small dents.

I don't know, including international shipping that seems reasonable.

I have a comparable one and I would not sell it for that price.

How much are Nantucket ii toothy and royal crystal toothy Fugus going for now?

I have a Wyse PCE Console keyboard manufactured 1989.  It may have Vintage Blacks, not sure but I am adding a link to my PIX

I am the original owner.  It was from a Wyse Console that I used in emergencies to hack/reclaim passowrds on Livingston Portmaster Terminal servers and Cisco Routers when the Telnet passowrds were lost.  Or someone screwed up an IP address.

It may have at the most 500-100 keystrokes but I doubt it has that many. 

It has Cherry MX Blacks.  Not sure if these are considered Vintage or not

All keys feel new and perfect, because they basically are, and the Keyboard is MINT.  There are no scratches, stains or anything.  I pulled a few keys and there is not even dust under the keys.  This keyboard has lived in my closet for 17-18 years or so.

The Keycaps have some uneven discoloration from UV.  By this, I mean that some have aged at a different rate than others, so one key may be a different shade than the one next to it.  The key itself will be uniform, but they colored at different rates for some reason. These are Double shot keys and they are perfect as well, with the exception that there is inconstancy to the key colors aging.

This is a 4 pin flat serial console cable keyboard.

1) What's it worth in cash or trade?
2) Should I retrobright it or leave it alone



Here is the link to the directory where the PIX are at, they are Large and not well white balanced, sorry for that, when I shot the PIX I wasn't considering posting them.

 Originative Carbon Black PBT keyset - what is the worth of this one? I can't find out much outside of massdrop and it hasn't been too useful to gauge a price range.

[ac2ev]

I've got a really clean Lexmark Model M that I'm going to bolt-mod (already did my 2 IBMs). Do they command the price as an IBM? I'm not sure how important the top label is.

Speaking only for myself, I would love to have a Lexmark-branded M.
My 2 main Ms have the square aluminum badges, but I would much rather have a Lexmark brand than a blue oval.
They are certainly quite rare in comparison.

Pirce check on a couple of things

-456GT in black
-OG cherry dyesubs
-HASRO dyesubs

[dgneo]

Pirce check on a couple of things

-456GT in black
-OG cherry dyesubs
-HASRO dyesubs

456GT - $800-$1k depending on condition
OG Dyesubs - $4-500
HASRO Dyesubs - $500+? (unsure of this one, photekq would know)

[Photekq]

Pirce check on a couple of things

-456GT in black
-OG cherry dyesubs
-HASRO dyesubs

456 is probably around $850-1000 like dgneo says, depending on whether it's assembled, which switches, etc.
OG dyesubs are $500 if NIB, less if used.
HASRO.. too hard to say. None have been sold recently. What condition is it? Unused, NIB?

[Nivlac]

Got a set NIB and another set slightly used

might have a 3rd set somewhere, all of them are with the boards if that makes a difference

I need to go digging around I think I got more goodies

Leeku v3 pcb + nixies + peacock case ?

[cryptokey]

What would be a reasonable asking price for a Varmilo VA87MR with Cherry MX Blues, a black case, grey varmilo dye sub top printed keycaps, and white LEDs?  I have the original box with all accessories and it is in mint condition, barely been used.

[gogusrl]

Got another one

Swedx wooden case, can fit (with minor modifications) any pcb with 9mm distance between alphas and F row. Won't work with original cherry pcb's.

Jesus That's nice.  I know WKL case is pretty hard to get.

And don't forget the Nixies! That is one fine board.

How much for each of these items:

• Keycool 104 rgb black case w/ white caps - used
• 1st gen Royal Kludge rc930 - used

Hi guys,

I have some new in box Key Tronic Flex Pro keyboards and was wondering if anyone know what the prices of them are?

I also found some RT8251C+ keyboards and was wondering how much those cost too?

Thank you

Photos would be helpful. Are the NMBs new also?

Does "some" mean 3 or 3 dozen? Flooding a very small niche market will depress prices.

Thank you for your quick response.  I have attached a couple photos and also have included another keyboard that I have found also new.  the NMBs are new too.
I only have a couple like 2-4 of each of these keyboards.

Thank you again
