Title: G80-8113HRBUS-2 with Cherry Clear (white) Switches and Double Shot Keys
Post by: Muftobration on Sat, 26 March 2011, 21:19:38: I just got this board on eBay for $60 shipped. It was refurbished when I got it, so I gave it a bit of a clean (just wiped it down) and it's in otherwise great shape. I just wanted to try clear switches to see if I like them. The board arrived yesterday so I haven't worn it down at all.

After trying browns, blacks, and clears, the clears are definitely my favorite, but I just got a Topre board to try out so I want to sell this to help make up for that cost.

$40 + shipping.

Original eBay sale I got it from (but I think I'm giving a better deal): http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290392734351&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_1890wt_905

I'm thinking of buying to harvest the keys, and give the board to my friend who wants to swap/mod his blacks with clears.

usually $40-45 shipped.

DanGWanG, PM me if you want a link.
