Title: Several new filco keyboards.Tenkeyless and full size
Post by: Ineptsavant on Tue, 12 April 2011, 00:59:06
I don't think this qualifies as a commercial sale, but if it does... sorry.

There is a local one man shop near me here in China that recently opened. The guy has quite a few Filco keyboards, but they don't sell very well in this blue-collar city. I know that Filcos are hard to come buy now so I thought maybe some of the people here would be interested in them.

First is a bright red 104 key Filco with MX-red switches.

2nd is a pink 104 key Filco with blank keys and red MX swtiches

Next up is a white 104 key Filco with MX black switches.

Now a white tenkeyless with MX browns.

and finally a pink tenkeyless with a special heart keycap and flower print-MX blacks

Now, none of these are used and none of them will be special deals. They are  retail price and you will have to pay shipping. Shipping is about 40 dollars for normal shipping to the US and 60 for express. If you're interested and I mean REALLY interested, post here or shoot me a message and I'll find out how much the keyboard costs. I don't remember the prices for them, but I know that the red one was the most expensive(new internal board or board controller if my Chinese understanding was correct.). Expect 160 dollars plus. The shop owner doesn't speak any English, but if you have some specific questions, I can ask him.

:)

There has been quite a bit of interest in these. I'll get the prices tomorrow and post them and then make arrangements. I will respond to all of the PMs after I talk to the guy tomorrow. Until then, please feel free to PM me with which one you're interested in.

Cheers :)

I'm not a huge fan of pink.
I leave it up to you to decide (http://geekhack.org/showpost.php?p=319108&postcount=731).

Does the 160 figure include shipping? I'm interested in the white tenkeyless. If it's under ~$160 shipped to the US (that's how much it is at keyboardco) I'm definitely interested.

Also, does the shop stock any keysets?

Post by: Son of Gnome on Tue, 12 April 2011, 17:18:10
yeah i think alot of people want keysets

Okay the prices are as follows(shipping not included)

The tenkeyless models and the full size white one are all $165

The blank pink one with red switches and the red one with red switches are both $280.(Seems high but the guy says that they're super limited majestouch 2).

I'm looking into a cheaper way of shipping than the standard post, but expect 44 dollars as that was what I was quoted for the normal post.

Please calculate the paypal fee here http://www.rolbe.com/paypal.htm

Are you making any money off this?

Probably about 8 dollars each and maybe better deals on things in the future. It's just kind of fun to do. If I buy them all I can probably negotiate lower and then get a new set of keycaps or something.

Those boards are expensive! I had assumed you were making a large profit. But they are very unique...I can't find an otaku pink or a pink with flowers anywhere. And those MX Red boards are really hard to find, too.

these are look like hard to find boards especially in america
we all seen the army group stuff but not things like this with red switches on red board or a pink board

are the white 104 key and tenkeyless the same color? the tenkeyless looks a lot whiter but it might just be the lighting

Man, that red board with red keys is great looking - the price is just a bit too steep though. Also tough to justify a third Filco in one month. . .

So the white tenkeyless will cost me 200 shipped to the US??

Yes, about that. Please add the paypal fee.

i'm very interested in the pink otaku one. is there any way to talk him down on the price? i don't mind paying a bit extra for shipping just to make sure it doesn't get lost at customs or something ridiculous like that.

Is there way to get it any cheaper for the white tenkeyless with MX Browns?
Title: Several new filco keyboards.Tenkeyless and full size
Post by: MrSneis on Tue, 19 April 2011, 00:28:45
Persistent aren't you!  I bet you could split shipping or something if you got enough people to buy in with you?
Title: Several new filco keyboards.Tenkeyless and full size
Post by: Ineptsavant on Tue, 19 April 2011, 02:08:52
The white tenkeyless with MX browns sells for a little more on the Chinese ebay, so I don't think he'll lower that one. I'm asking about the pink otaku one(though I really can't find another one that has red switches so he may be right about it being very rare)

you're definitely making a profit if you had to ASK the seller about how rare they are. no point in saying you're making only 8 dollars.

anyhow - i'll offer 200 for the red board
