I'll do a straight trade for a mint Ferrari 308 GTS. Let me know if you're interested.

Yes sure there are always other rare things out there, much of which I have little or no interest in, but this was my 'one'.

chaosstep · « **Reply #101 on:** Wed, 05 December 2012, 18:55:13 »

Daxx it.

There were 80Euro, 120Euro

Peter · « **Reply #102 on:** Thu, 06 December 2012, 10:36:10 »

Lysol, I was glad to see you got a NIB-one for a relatively fair price ..
(I mean: You can STILL make a load of cash on it, if you ever sell it !!)

But like I said earlier :
Soon it won't matter, 'somebody' has all the original Cherry-cap machines and tooling
and they are willing to start the machines !
In fact, you should bring this sale to the attention of your connection in Kraut-Cherrycap Land !!
(NO offense intended, I rather like the Germans...Despite the fact they have owed my country a few billion ..For 70 years )

Yes, isn't it hilarious ?
The old, beat-out, hackboard -
Ends up being the most expensive one ..

What was it the last of you payed for the NIB-ones, 200 Euro or something ?
LOL !!!!!!!
You are all welcome btw .... Merry X-mas

My wife is already screaming 'SELL IT !!' to me

Alessandro · « **Reply #105 on:** Fri, 07 December 2012, 10:36:41 »

I'm thanking you many times even though I didn't manage to get one, I just REALLY REALLY want one!

Peter · « **Reply #106 on:** Fri, 07 December 2012, 10:48:35 »

I Think the 'O' in 'HASRO' means 'Oligark-edition' !!

(Sorry to hear you didn't get one Alessandro ..
If you have the cash, you should go for that dye-sub UK-layout g81-3000 they have on auction.
It's the old MY-switches, pretty sure they are plate-mounted, like on my g81-3000 HAM with danish doubleshots.
It's very nice keyboard to type on in fact, and UK-English virgin dye-sub caps are not seen often )

Alessandro · « **Reply #107 on:** Fri, 07 December 2012, 10:56:08 »

That's true, I've yet to try dye subs but really wanted the cryllic legends.

Yes, but the other ones, you actually have a NEED for !
I really hope that board goes to someone in the UK, don't let the 'g81' get in your way,
old plate-mounted MY-switches are a lot better than their reputation would let you believe .
Especially with those super-thick PBT-caps !

I bought one from this seller.
But Today I got the message from buying service.

"Sorry, We check again and then out of stock now"

Yeah why this seller tell me now after five days?
I think it might be associated with this.

It's already over 505 euro daxx it.
Very greedy seller, I have never seen before like him.

He might pretend he doesn't have. He sell or put them at auction again.

Thanks lysol. you are just a couple of time zones away from me, how come I haven't received mine yet? Do you know if yours was shipped via Express/EMS?

IvanIvanovich · « **Reply #116 on:** Thu, 13 December 2012, 16:50:23 »

It was delivered by USPS and it was sent DHL economy.

litster · « **Reply #117 on:** Thu, 13 December 2012, 17:32:13 »

Ah, that is going to take while to get to me then. I wonder how you got it so quickly.

IvanIvanovich · « **Reply #118 on:** Thu, 13 December 2012, 18:42:50 »

I don't know. We bought them on the same day... would figure they would have shipped them at the same time. I hope they didn't decide to play games with you after they sold the other ones for 2,3x the price you bought it.

litster · « **Reply #119 on:** Thu, 13 December 2012, 19:01:43 »

Boost got a tracking number and delivery was attempted today. So mine hopefully will be here by Saturday. It says on ebay that mine was shipped.

inlikeflynn · « **Reply #120 on:** Thu, 13 December 2012, 23:06:54 »

lysol also got his SkiData a whole 3 USPS shipping days before me. We only live maybe 6hrs apart and I'm closer to the bigger cities. So guess he is just lucking out on shipments from Germany =)

tjcaustin · « **Reply #121 on:** Thu, 13 December 2012, 23:18:21 »

Oh man, I had forgot about this thread.

Don't worry those that didn't get one, you can buy peter's. It's on ebay for $750 to start and if you can't wait 9 days, it can be your's right now for the low low price of $2275.

EDIT: And yes, I *am* going to call you out on this imbecilic decision at every turn.

IvanIvanovich · « **Reply #136 on:** Sat, 15 December 2012, 14:39:25 »

It's ok with me if they keep pushing up the prices. Then maybe my trade proposal for a Ferrari is no longer far fetched. LOL.

Actually though I do hope no one buys them. Paying more than $200 for one is kind of silly even to me.

The_Beast · « **Reply #137 on:** Sat, 15 December 2012, 14:49:15 »

So are these double shot or 100% dye sub or dye sub+pad printed?

litster · « **Reply #138 on:** Sat, 15 December 2012, 15:08:44 »

I haven't taken all caps off to look under the caps, but I am very sure they are all dye sub.

Yes they are 100% dyesub, both legend. Mine also has vintage blacks and NKRO, so it's also a nice winkeyless ansi 3000 in addition to the keycaps. Now, only to exchange the AT cable for PS/2 one so I don't have to use retarded adapter

you're probably the only person that is actually going to use this board and not just hoard it away in the closet.

If it's got NKRO, just run it into a soarer box.
If you want to solder a new internal connector on it, I have a PS2 cable from a NIB G81 that I cut off (it's a good cable! I never throw out good cable.) before throwing the KB away. You can have it if you like.

I guess I could make one for you, but I'd need at least a good picture of the connector and the pinout.

IvanIvanovich · « **Reply #145 on:** Sun, 16 December 2012, 11:02:45 »

I got the ps/2 cable covered, have some new Cherry ones I got from somebody for just these kind of thing. No fancy converter needed for AT to PS/2 swap.
I haven't gotten around to open it yet, but many model just have a little mini connector so not even soldering is needed. Just unplug one and plug in the other and close it up. If not, then 4 or sometimes 5 solder points is no problem.

What I meant was soldering a new one of those connectors onto my cut-off cable (Then plug it into the keyboard internally), but if you've already got it covered, great. Maybe I'll clip both ends and make a sweet coiled USB cable or something.
