Title: Clack Factory Tri-color and Red MX caps
Post by: heedpantsnow on Fri, 19 August 2011, 15:15:33: Saw several folks wanting them, so I'll just make this thread instead of sending a ton of PM's.

Need money b/c we just had a baby. I never use these since our 2 year old says they're 'scary'. :rolleyes:

Prices include CONUS shipping. Both are more or less unused; I might have typed on them (as ESC key) for a day each.

Tri-color click-clack skull key for Cherry MX: $100 OBO (best offer currently $50)

Red click-clack skull key for Cherry MX: $50 OBO (best offer currently $30)

Think my prices are crazy? Do a little digging and then make PM me an offer.

That's probably true, but I would rather sacrifice a bit to build into this community any day. I have thoroughly enjoyed the people and personalities here. The banter, the lulz, and of course the information really make this place special. And every time I've had the opportunity to interact with you guys via PM or email has truly been a pleasure.

On the other hand ebay...where to start. The place is riddled with people just trying to rip you off or scam you. You have to have a bot to actually get a good deal on something (and you will almost always lose an auction in the last literally fraction of a second to a bot). If you don't, then you probably paid too much for said item. And rarely do I receive something and think to myself, "this is exactly as they described it." I try to deal with ebay as little as possible.

/end soapbox

Thanks Cactus (et al.) for your good wishes with the baby! He's finally doing better and the nurse doesn't have to come every day now!
