effed... someone found out that the backspace is misspelled and the num lock/scroll lock labeling is printed on the transparent circle, hopefully the PBT version is better...

And I'm one of those weird people that actually LIKES the domes on Windows keys.  Helps me keep track of that very useful Win7 key.

You probably have to pay Microsoft for the domes LOL.

abt the price... its 599RMB (499RMB for forum members with fulfilled requirements) but the RMB to USD conversion doesnt look nice for ppl paying in USD

DUCKY PRON!!!

*drool

Does anyone know what their key print type is ?? I don't remember anyone saying it before :/



By the way Obook told me the pricing for the Cherry G80-3494




Freight charge: 124.14 = 9%

Insurance = - = 0%

Out-of-pocket expenses = 995.70 = 72%

Commission: 224.03 = 16%

Paypal receiving fee = 49.89

   
Total Price: 1,393.76 HKD
------------------------------


Which for me comes down to 554.585 MYR which is roughly the same price as that ebay seller but for the black version.



White rice says he paid     444.458 MYR for his ducky hm...



PS: I don't really like tenkeyless keyboards :{ Yeah sure you could buy a ten key from Filco, but i rather just get the whole keyboard in one shot preferably.



Rice may i ask how trust worthy is obook ? It's my first time i will be using it. Did you chose XIN Shipping ? Are they any good ?

I choose airmail as it was the cheapest option.

While I haven't received anything yet, their customers service reps have been very patient and answered all my questions.

My total cost also includes a small extra, so for the keyboard it would been around $140.

Interesting side note. Five days ago, Obook contacted the seller on my behalf to get a status update. The seller said the keyboards were in customs clearance(import to china). Wait where are these things getting made?

Here is my summary of my expenses for comparison;

Nice find. I may get one of these instead of the 9000/9008 if my cousin can find it...

WhiteRice, the freight was only 15usd? How long will it take for the keyboard to reach ur hands? tell ur seller to put some cushion before he ships, some ppl have problems with their keyboard due to bad handling.

17% commission from obook is quite high... plus 1 US dollar = 6.6905 Chinese yuan, maybe I should pay in RM instead of USD -.-
