Title: Filco Majestouch NKRO 104 Browns w/ Cover
Post by: abso on Mon, 14 March 2011, 18:56:30
Selling my [hard to find!] Filco 104 NKRO Brown w/ keyboard roof to make room for my new backlit Xarmor tomorrow.

Bought this at the end of November from the last batch at Elitekeyboards. Board is still in perfect shape with basically 0 visible wear. Includes box, red escape key, and plexiglass keyboard roof (also offered from EK at the time). Looking for SOLD shipped (PayPal) to continental US.

Will grab some pictures in the next few days or upon request.

Please let me know if you're interested. Thanks!

Edit: I guess I should also add this comes with the stock black escape key and the usb/ps2 convertor as well, plus the remainder of the warranty through EK.

Edit #2: Keeping the cover for my new keyboard, now looking for SOLD shipped for keyboard and all other accessories.

Edit #3: Added daylight pics -- as you can see this thing is flawless (a few specks of dust crept into the picture still -- doh!)

Sorry, they're incandescent-lit so they look kinda bad. Can take natural daylight ones tomorrow if desired.

Turns out the keyboard roof fits on my new keyboard as well, so I might just keep that and knock $5 or so off the price of the Filco -- SOLD shipped without the roof.

Agreed.  The blue 104's are hard to find.

Not NKRO: "..but without the additional cost associated with NKR feature as fitted to the higher priced models."

Sorry about the slow reply on this - I'll know for sure on Friday whether or not I'd want to pull the trigger. If someone wants to jump on this beforehand, I don't want to hold up the sale.

Just so everyone knows, this keyboard was $143+shipping when I purchased it. I'm not trying to make money, but obviously to recoup (is that a word?) as much of my cost as I can. I think that's reasonable given the fact you can't currently order this keyboard in the US that I'm aware of. Thanks all for your continued interest.

Keyboards retain their value well, but not an almost half a year old Cherry Brown keyboard. Only Topre's can pull those kinds of shenanigans off.

Actually less than 4 months of use by an obsessively clean, non-smoking adult on a keyboard that is harder to find now than it was 4 months ago. I don't think it sounds too unreasonable.

I thought I was pretty clear that this IS NKRO (sorry I didn't get the gold logo in my pictures).

Thank DangWanG for the confusion. Idiots like him needed to learn how to butt out of people's thread with **** that doesn't pertain to them. Especially when they don't even do their research first. I know I'm a new member, but this price police **** occurs in every single forum I'm a member of. It's always the same old stupid kids who thread crap.

Linking a product on amazon that states the price for $119.00, when you thought it was the same exact keyboard, isn't saying anything about the price?

You tried to thread crap. You failed.

Save yourself the embarrassment and quit responding.

Why are you being such a douche? It doesn't make you look cool.

Xarmor - Keeping the cover for my new keyboard


Your EK roof fits the XArmor?

I wonder if EK changed the spec of the roof recently. Because the one roof I just got doesn't fit.

See post EK roof doesn't fit XArmor U9BL-S (http://geekhack.org/showpost.php?p=313416&postcount=17)

Yes -- maybe I just got lucky? It appears my roof has a very slight upware bow (see last pic), but the both edges fit over the keys fine:

I see. I'm jealous!!!

Nice action in your thread... I love the choice of smiley too
 :behindsofa:

Speaking of roof the XArmor has a nice double edge. Your roof fits on the upper. I'll take the measurements and try to find something that would be a tiny bit bigger, enough to sit on the lower step/edge. I'll probably have to carve it to accomodate the A/V and USB bump.

I'd be curious to see what you come up with, although mine already works for me =)

Will also consider trade towards a Topre (45g, black color, regular or tenkeyless) or a Majestouch 2 Red. Please let me know if you're looking to trade either and would rather have a 104brownNKRO (plus cash).
