Price Check- What's it Worth?

[SpAmRaY]

How much is the nuclear data keyset going for right now? I missed out on the group buy, and i really want it.

 Some guy on reddit tried it sell me his at like $130 and he stated "Well people are selling them on geekwhack for like $150, and some of them don't even have the extras I have" I know that is a complete lie, and i'm just wondering how much the base set + the radioactive mods are going for. Thanks!

Unless people are being total trolls they should be selling for group buy price plus shipping. You can see the group buy kits and pricing here http://www.pimpmykeyboard.com/deals/nuclear-data-green-old-skool-sa-row-3-keycaps/

Also do know there were replacement caps just sent out to fix a few things to the original participants so you might want to hold off on buying.

Agreed.  There  are a lot of *******s on Reddit yhough who are just looking to make a profit and tgen lie and try to justify it by saying "GH does it" without ever actually coming here or other weird logical leaps.  There are some good ones too, but the *******s are quite vocal.

Anyways, I'm sure some will pop up around GB price in here.

One last check for an LZ skin 1800

[ComradeSniper]

One last check for an LZ skin 1800

I don't really know, but since no one else has given an estimate yet, I'd guess $300 or so.

[jonathanyu]

One last check for an LZ skin 1800

iirc, the lz skin 1800 originally was about $250-300, but I may be wrong.

[hwood34]

Yeah, all the estimates I've been getting are between $250-300, guess that's as accurate a price as I'll get

I think these are early KBK caps, not 100% sure and seem lacking in any sort of stamp/print: http://i.imgur.com/gJelYSj.jpg
The mummy is odd, very low
The monster is big, easy to get stuck with both my Ducky keyboards

Hoping to trade them for brotbots. Picked both up from a guy that Ive seen around both on reddit and on GH.

Do Cherry MY1800/MY7000 keyboards that have had their keycaps harvested hold any value?

[intelli78]

They are valuable for target practice.
Well, I guess an MY1800 case is probably compatible with an MX1800 case, so that part has value. But I remember some discussion about needing to break off tabs to fit the MX1800 pcb inside, or some such nonsense.

[RoflCopter4]

I know this seller has been posted over in the "great finds" section before, so I'll just put my question here. Basically I've never tried black complicated alps before, is it worth this price to get a NIB Dell AT101W? I can't find too many reviews on the thing either. What is the switch like?

Black Alps are generally considered to be pretty bad, gritty in particular (and they age quite badly). I'd take an AT101W only as a cheap kit to practice soldering or perhaps painting or something.

Fair enough I suppose. I just wish I could find more reviews on it, just to get a more complete picture.

[davkol]

I don't really monitor great finds, thus have no idea what price you mean. I suppose it's great under $25, then you get some idea about the feel, and I consider it a decent keyboard, if painted and with Matias switches. Otherwise, better look for some Alps Bigfoot, Northgate, Focus, Apple Extended or something like that, because blacks Alps is like one of the worst in the family.

[fohat.digs]

because blacks Alps is like one of the worst in the family.

I will have to comment on this. Black Alps are very similar to orange/pink and can be perfectly good switches.

I have a Dell AT101 that I got new with a Dell system in the late-1990s and used it quite a bit for at least a couple of years. It is still a very serviceable and acceptable keyboard.

I have also bought "like-new" ones that were terrible.

The best word to describe AT101s is "unpredictable"

So, what you're saying is that $70 for a NIB (including shipping) is not worth it?

[fohat.digs]

So, what you're saying is that $70 for a NIB (including shipping) is not worth it?

Yes, that is way too much. These were very common back in the day and do not command a premium price.

They are very solid and well-made keyboards, but they turn up regularly in 2nd hand shops for $5.

$40 shipped would be a very fair price for a good NIB specimen, especially an AT101 (AT101W has Windows keys) with original PBT caps, but you would never know without trying it, and I have pulled them out of their boxes and had them feel terrible.

By “$40 shipped” do you mean $40 plus shipping or $40 including shipping? Everyone seems to use that phrase and I've never been clear on which they mean. Considering shipping to Canada costs $30-$40 alone I highly doubt I'll ever pay $40 for any keyboard online at all, let alone a NIB one. The one I linked above on eBay costs around $35 Canadian plus around $40 Canadian for shipping, bringing a total of ~$75.

[intelli78]

Including.

[Prelim]

Hi guys, how much to ask for these rare models in NIB condition?

G80-1220HAU

More

G80-1220HAD

More

[IvanIvanovich]

1220 have RJ connector, not sure of protocol. I'm going to say $75 for the HAU and $45 for the HAD.

[Prelim]

wow, that's less than I've paid for them @@ 

[IvanIvanovich]

It's just my opinion... unless you can confirm they speak AT (so you can simple cable swap like on 1813) most people will only end up parting them out. In that case you could sell the caps alone easily for the same prices.
If you can confirm they speak AT +$25 to the HAU and maybe $15 to the HAD as they just aren't as in demand.

[Prelim]

yes they have AT/PC switch on the back But even at that prices I would prefer to keep them, as I've paid more for it.

[hwood34]

Are white alps even worth anything to anyone?

Thanks. That was really bothering me. Good to know.

So pretty much on par with cheaper MX switches?

[RoflCopter4]

What's the general opinion on Monterry Blue switches? I just got a board with them and IMHO while they are no buckling springs they sure make Cherry switches feel like a toy for babies. Are they considered less desirable than normal blue Alps?

They're nice switches, but the boards they're on are usually crap, ruining their feel.  They also are not interchangeable with Alps since they have an additional leg.  As such, they tend to go for a fair bit less than Blue Alps.

[bueller]

Got a couple of Pure's here with minor problems that I want to get rid of, need to know how much to sell them for. One has MX blacks however one of the switches needs replacing due to a bent contact and I'm also pretty sure it has a loose usb connector as well that will need resoldering. The other one has 62g browns and just needs the Esc key resoldered, has a loose joint and causes problems from time to time. I've got spare switches ready here that I can throw in for the buyer as well, my soldering is just too shoddy to bother tackling repair.

Also have a Filco TKL with Browns and a Litster case, keen to know how much that would go for as well. Pics are in the signature below.

I'm not sure I understand. Do you mean the layout of the boards it come on is bad? I agree that the small backspace is irritating but I don't think it's so annoying that it "ruins the feel". That doesn't even make sense.

[fohat.digs]

Cheap flimsy plastic keyboards that do not have the stability of better-built keyboards.

[JaccoW]

How much for a Round 4 Noir set?


Had it mounted for a week or so.

I'm assuming you found a Chicony keyboard with monterey blues. IME most Chicony boards are pretty poor quality and weigh hardly anything. The MTEK K104 is a much better monterey blue keyboard.

Is a mint condition HHKB2 worth anything? Only willing to sell to people in UK.
