Title: White/Gray Realforce 87U Uniform 45g Keyboard
Post by: biochem on Thu, 15 September 2011, 19:46:04

I bought this keyboard from EK in August. I like the smooth stroke of the Topre key switches but I find that 45g is too light for my typing style (I bottom out too easily).

Sale includes the original box, red ESC key, lavender WASD keys, swappable CTRL/CAPS Lock keys, and the keycap pulling tool. The keyboard has no visible signs of wear. I will use ground shipping to CONUS.

I'll take offers via PM for the next two days.  Sold.

I can't even imagine what your inbox is going to look like over the next two days. It's going to be pandemonium. GLWS; I don't think you will need it though! :biggrin1:

I think people might pay Type-S price for a Silent AND Uniform 45g 87U.

I think elitekeyboards said they were restocking, but it was sometime in like December, maybe next year. Then again, that sounds like keyboardco and them saying they would restock the 91UBY.. and never did. So everyone jump on this while you can!

This thing is still here?  I thought it'd be gone already.

Is that a lot for it? What did it originally go for?

Sorry, that was me.  Yes, I bidded over the original price.  But without including the supply and demand curve to explain, I thought I am really only paying only $30 more than the original price, shipping included.  So the argument was (yes, I talked to myself about it), do I want it bad enough to pay $30 more for a one month old keyboard that I can't buy else where?  The answer was yes.

What I would be interested to know is what was the second highest bid.

I had an offer for the same amount that I paid for it.

Hi demik!  I miss the white 86U that I sold you!  Realforce's White/beige combo is still my fav!

I am in Washpington State, so no tax for me if I were to buy from EK.  But I convinced myself it is still a good deal :-)
