Title: Realforce 86U Topre USB, tenkeyless, white
Post by: Dimps on Sun, 10 April 2011, 17:34:17
Keyboard is SOLD! Thank you everyone!

Bought this keyboard from
http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B001EQ7DTA/ref=ord_cart_shr?ie=UTF8&m=AN1VRQENFRJN5

Have used it for three days at work as programmer. I have found that it does not suit me: while it's comfortable to have keyboard letter area closer to the mouse, i just need numpad. I am using a lot of * and + and even more of numpad Enter.
This keyboard have variable keyweight and i don't like it as well. I sometimes press A or some other lightweight keys by accident.

Everything else is perfect: solid build quality, keypuller, spare keycaps (Tab-Ctrl, ...)

Now i already have unicomp customizer (i like it more). Filco majestouch cherry brown and tt Meka G1 cherry black are on it's way. Going to find The Keyboard for myself. But it's not the variable keyweight tenkeyless Realforce.

I have spent more than 300$ getting this keyboard down here to Russia and i understand you can buy new for 265$+shipping from EK in US.
I think it would be fair to ask 180$ for this almost never used keyboard in great condition. Plus you will have to pay for shipping. Hence:

Price: SOLD! (was 180$ + shipping from Moscow, Russia to you.

UPD: shipping from Russia to USA cost 50$. Shipping to europe should be about 50$ as well.

UPD2: i discovered that Russian paypal users are not allowed to receive payments. Only payment methods i am able to accept are direct Visa money transfer and amazon.com gift card (since i'm active user of amazon.com). Plus, of course, i can accept "russian" payment systems like WebMoney, Yandex.Money, Qiwi.
(Please, let me know if there is some other easy way to receive money in Russia; like Western Union, i have no idea.)

Nice price. Are the keys variable weighted or fixed?

PM'ed, but will be at work for the next 12 hours at least, so if I get the deal please don't expect immediate payment.

Dimps does not need no feedback!

Anyway, good price and I've been contemplating about it for awhile.
Too bad about the no Paypal policy though

MrSneis, no, i do not have anything like ebay account that would have selling history. It's my first online sale.

But i can back myself up with the story of me looking for a better keyboard, sorting keyboards by price at amazon.com, finding das keyboard, reading about something like "mechanical keyboards", then finding out http://elitekeyboards.com/, then geekhack.
I have actually bought topre realforce, filco majestouch, tt Meka G1 and Unicomp Customizer.

Filco:

Unicomp:

And, of cource, the master keyboard:

Meka G1: (at home, have no photos right now)

So, you can trust me as a fellow keyboard geek ^^

PS: As always, have a nice day! ;)
