I've been out of the keyboard business for a while, but atm I'm a bit money strapped, and I still have a 3D MX CC lying around. Can someone give me a valuation or maybe even an offer?
Make a thread about it, this isn't a market place fyi but it would prob be a bit over 100
Very busy with studies atm.

trophy gold seems to be pretty rare so far.  maybe like 4 or 5?  more could pop up with clackvent, though.

Yeah not much came up by searching. I'm curious to see other owners through the clackvent!

Got an MX darkside here, what do people think it's worth? I'm hoping I can trade it for an OG or a Jack.
It's a good width!  If it's half-width it's too narrow, and full-width is too wide.

Not really I'm afraid. I can easily go get a darkside for 200$ (I know atleast 2). Jacks and OGs have also become more rare, since the collectors rarely part with tricolors. Sad but true :(

Whats the trade value for a candycorn WASD set?

Trade value should be relatively high - especially compared to the other far more common 'blank' set; Mint Gum (WASD, Arrows, Skull, & 'ESC' Black = "full set"). Several collectors are particularly fond of Candycorn - getting Candycorn FN (Topre), Arrows or WASD set (either switch type) & for these collectors finding one of the rarer Candycorn set/items is a considerable 'score'. I've personally hunted for a  set of Candycorn Arrows & Topre Candycorn Fn Blank for quite some time. I had 1 chance where I was very close to securing a Candycorn Fn for good/fair 'resale market' price but sadly the friend of mine who acquired it ended up selling it to another friend (I was just a few hours late in reply - and so that Fn went to another well known Geekhacker).

In short, if you are looking for a Candycorn set item - Good luck; they exist but in small number & those are sought after by a good number of collectors.

Alternatively if you have a Candycorn WASD set & that's why you're inquiring as to trade value - then I have to say the value varies depending on who you are trading with. Certain collectors addicted to Candycorn might trade a relatively high-end Skull for the set (or multiple more common Clacks) - but not everyone would consider a set of "blanks" to have the same value. Certain collectors want to get Skulls, others have their sights set on particular colors or multi-colors etc. (either due to rarity, personal preference, or any other reason).

Basically most collectors I know would be interested in a Candycorn set, the WASD is nice but not the most sought after Candycorn creation, but it is still a piece of the set many would like to own. If you find the right person who is a Candycorn fan you would likely score a very nice trade in return for the Candycorn WASD set.

If you have any additional questions or would like more detail on what "trade value" they might have feel free to PM me. You can also post a reply in this thread, but I can't promise I will see that a quickly as a PM.

I hope this has been of some help to you sir.  :thumb:

Aren't they fairly rare though?

Signature is correct in the reply he provided you. When I first started collecting Darkside was very hard to find (for sale or trade), however in the last couple years the trade value or price has gone down and there seem to be some more Darksides out there than in the past. I also can back up Signature in that I am aware of several Darkside's going for $200 and in some cases in the last 6 months a few went for even less (I know of a $175 sale & I believe one that was traded @ a "special friend rate" for a Clack in the $150 range).

It appears Clack may have released more of these, I'm not saying a ton of them are out there - but it is a known fact that certain board members received Darkside's in the last year for the man himself where previously there only seemed to be "old stock" or "original production run" Darksides available and they were not Clacks that people wanted to past with a couple years ago. That has changed and it seems many more individuals now own a Darkside, or at least the original  owners started selling and trading them.

I hope this is helpful to you sir.  :thumb:

Edit: I forgot to reply to your original question - I'm sorry but trading a Darkside for an OG or Jack is basically impossible. OG & Jack are both very very popular Clacks and people seldom part with them. With the number of Darksides that have been traded or sold recently I'm afraid to inform you that the trade value for an OG/Jack is at least double Darkside in the cases I am aware of. I've had people offer me one or more of their limbs for Jack - He's beautiful and extremely hard to pick up. The owners who have them generally never want to part with them (myself included).

Too high IMO. People will point at eBay prices and say that it's fair though.

Do people find this thread useful? All I see really is mild bickering and trolling, with some people looking for PM offers...

I'm considering closing the thread and archiving it. Seems the standard response to "What is my _____ Clack worth?" should be "Check eBay completed auctions."

There is a lot of bickering, to be expected in a controversial topic like Clack prices.

I find it useful - there are usually a few valuable responses when someone asks about a particular Clack.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

~$75-$100.

Common colors like mint gum would be worth a little less.

Uncommon (3 of each according to 4grabs thread):


More common:
mint gum
p1 purple


I feel like there is another common one I'm forgetting so if someone knows it please correct me. There are probably other colors made, but that was the only image I could find in the 4grabs thread.

hmm ok. i expected there to be more than 3 of some of those considering the matching fn keys are so hard to find.

What do you guys think would be current market value for Freedom Eagle? MX Salute?

I haven't been following eBay auction prices or reddit. :(

Honestly, I think a salute could hit $500-700 on eBay, no idea about the eagle. Would love the original eagle, sadly I bet it costs more than the $150(I think it was originally).

I'd def think salute would hit $400. 5-7 is pushing it. He only released it once, right? July after was slushy stuff? Then the eagles?
My wife I a also push her button . But now she have her button push by a different men. So I buy a keyboard a mechanicale, she a reliable like a Fiat.

I'm just comparing it to the recent $700 OG and how I seem to see more OG than Salutes in the wild now.
