Title: A few keyboards (Filco 104, ABS M1, Kinesis, Black Compact Alps)

All in great condition, worthy of a geekhacker :)

I am moving my office into the house, and brining home 70 or so keyboards kind of surprised the wife, and not in a good way.  So I am going to try to trim my collection down to a more reasonable size.

I really like the little Vivanco keyboards- they're light and compact, with clicky alps XM and have a really great color scheme.  However, that big enter key does not have a stabilizer on it, which is kind of cheap.

Is there a price at which you'd be willing to sell the Filco for outright or are you just wanting to continue with the bidding. I'm currently your top bidder.

Don't cheat. You must bid your way to victory!

I always get irritated when a seller cancels an auction I was watching, so I'd prefer not to cancel this one to be courteous to the bidders...

Haha ok fair is fair. Just being impatient and not wanting to wait 6 days. Never hurts to check :)

Somehow the first couple of times I read the alps wiki I skipped past the various simplified stuff.

Since most simplified things are not made by ALPS, why are they classified differently than the "alps compatible" stuff like Monterey's, etc? Edit: It's the similarity of the switch internals themselves to being "close enough" to fukka, isn't it?

Just to let you know, all the links to sandy55 stuff, at least in the simplified section, are all broken.
