I have a few brand new in box Cherry G80-2551 HAD with MX blacks to offer.
They were never touched before (of course except one for the photos =) and have really beautiful doubleshot key caps with additional blue top and/or front face labels on some caps.
You can get complete keyboards or sets of keycaps. (to lower the shipping cost if you only need the caps)
One keyboard/set of caps is 30€ each, if you take two I go down to 25€ or down to 20€ for 3 or more.
Shipping from Germany is of course on top!
Here a few pictures:

The legendary Cherry Blue on Grey Esc key
-
In for one set!
-
Oh why couldnt this be ANSI layout!!!
Anyway, GLWS.
But that blue on grey esc key is screaming my name!
-
I wish you posted it yesterday. I bid on 8200, but if I lose I will buy one of these for sure.
-
But that blue on grey esc key is screaming my name!
I can touch type so in really tempted to get it just for the hell of it.

Too bad it's not even remotely close to being as cool and rare as this one:

You sure they aren't dye sub? Otherwise they must be triple shot (they have 3 colors).

If they are like the colored caps i have from Cherry, sixty confirmed they are doubleshots and then the colors are pad printed. Best pad printing i have ever seen. Looks amazing with high contrast.

PMed!
EDIT: Who in the bay area wants to split an order with me?
-
I'm not in the bay but I wouldn't mind splitting cost. But I only want the keycaps.
-
I'm interested in splitting with you Jesuswasa if demik doesn't. I'm also located in the bay area.
-
Anyone in the northwest want to split shipping? I know there is a lot of people in Washington ;-)
-
First of all: Happy new year!!
I have to say that all 9 keyboards were gone after a few hours on deskthority, nobody here at geekhack was fast enough, sorry! So everybody who got no PM from me till now didn't get one... :(
With all the lucky ones I will handle payment and shipping in the next days.
BUT:
I realized that these boards seem to be really in great demand..
So I will try to get some more of them!
I am not absolutely sure if I can get more and if I can get them again that cheap, but I will try my very best!
So please reply here under this post again if you are really interested in one (or more).
Ideally with number of boards/sets of caps wanted and country of shipping.
-
Nooo, don't get more! I don't know if i can resist that temptation twice ;)
-
Posted on DT already, repeating here :-)
I would like 2 sets, up to 4 sets. Keycaps only. Ship to the USA. Happy New Year!
-
As per requested by TS:
I would like to order 2 sets of the Keycaps. :). Ship to USA.
Cheers!
-
There are a few of us in California interested in 2 boards and 1 set I believe.
-
I would also like 2 sets shipping to USA
-
Wow, that will be some hard work, if I get more boards.
I have NO keycap remover tool and up to now 10+ people are interested in caps only...
That would be way more than 1300 keycaps to remove... :help:
-
Tell that to ascaii.:plane:
-
I can ship you one puller from Singapore if you want :D

GOOD NEWS:
The friend who organized these boards agreed to empty the complete stock of his company for me.
That means that I get 20 more boards, but then there are absolutely none left!
He is going to bring me the Keyboards on Friday.
So when they arrive I look here and at deskthority for the timestamps of your posts to see who will get something...
Another good news is that I can manage to keep the price at 30€ per keyboard/set of keys.
Only the discount to 20€ for 3+ boards is not possible any more, but I decided to keep the 25€ price per piece for 2+ orders.
I hope everyone will be pleased with that!
-
Thank you Tarkoon! This is Good news!
-
Good to hear.
I wrote on Deskthority interested in one set of keycaps without keyboard(let Sixty have all of them :heh: )shipped to Spain.
Hope I can get one
-
Anymore of this i am interested
-
PM sent.

Tarkoon, looks like the option to ship to the USA by DHL is as follows:
- Up to 120 x 60 x 60 cm => 47" x 23.5" x 23.5" (same size for all weight level below):
- up to 2 Kg 33 EUR online price (35 EUR retail price)
- up to 5 Kg 34 EUR online price (36 EUR retail price)
- up to 10 Kg 45 EUR online price (47 EUR retail price)
- up to 20 Kg 66 EUR online price (68 EUR retail price)
- up to 31.5 Kg 87 EUR online price (89 EUR retail price)
Buyers in the USA, would you be willing to pay a little more to get the full, new keyboard? If so, I don't mind being the USA re-distributor. It is only worth the extra cost and effort it if you want the full keyboard. If you just ship one keyboard from Germany to the US, it would cost 33EUR. A 20 Kg package at this size should fit 8 or 10 keyboards, that would be 66 EUR (divided by however many keyboard) plus maybe $11 USPS ground parcel.
Tarkoon, would you be able to ship all the USA orders to me, including keyboards, and I re-ship to people in the USA?
-
That's a good idea if the others agree. The shipping costs are as you wrote. Uninsured bubble mailer would be 3,45€ or 7€ for more sets in one mailer.
-
I am part of the Jesuswasazombie buy :D I hope we make it

This would be awesome since your so close :-) Plus it looked like most people were on the west coast.

Oh man I so want that one now, doesn't beat the red one though, I like the red one far too much
-

It's way more rare and a cooler color so in my book it beats the red one. But at the same time it's pretty much impossible to find. Until the ANSI version of that board popped up on OTD, sixty had never seen another one like it (outside of his own).

I'm sure it's much more rare, before even knowing more about it. But from what you said about it, it's basically next to impossible to find one ;(
Though in the end the red one is much more vibrant :cool:

What feeble excuses, you simply must get the blue one now.

I can't imagine what tsangan would be willing to trade for that ESC key. Maybe his house?

I thought the house was already mortgaged for the red one.
-
Tell that to ascaii.:plane:
can't believe I missed this xD
Ill possibly do round 3 in the next few months.

Haha, if BiNi can't find one and only sixty has one I don't know if its possible to get one, I could always find out where sixty lives :cool:

It's more like I can't imagine what the seller would want for this key knowing how rare it is ;<

+1 on this, after thinking for it for a while longer it was all gone, should have followed the first rule of GeekHack "Buy first, think later." ;(
I just wanted the esc key but I guess the other keys will get some used too.
Oh wait I want it for the caps lock too! That's a wicked looking caps lock key!!!
-
Damn. Would have like the board too. Stupid holidays.
-
I will get an overview this evening after work and post a list here, just to doublecheck if I got everything right.
-
I am short in time so I just looked one time over the posts and PMs and made a small first list:
(http://tyrael.de/tarkoon/list.png)
The first group is from geekhack, the second from deskthority. (7bit's 13 is just a placeholder)
Please review your line and PM me mistakes please! (I know there will be some, e.g. lister changing to complete boards etc.)
I will update the list tomorrow at the same time.
If I had completly wrong numbers, it could be possible that the last (time, not place in list) has to be kicked or the next one on the waiting list will be added.
I will try to be as fast with everything as my free time allows me!
-
Tarkoon, looks like no one wants to share shipping cost for full keyboards. It is only 1 Euro difference between 2 Kg and 5 Kg shipping to the USA. I think 5 Kg should be able to cover 2 keyboards. Could you ship 2 full keyboards and 2 sets of keycaps for me? Thanks.

If it saves money getting them to the US I would be down.
EDIT: The person who requested to share shipping on the just caps part of my order has pulled out.
As my order stands now 2 NIB Complete Keyboards.
-
JesuswasaZombie, let's see if we could make it work. 4 boards for me, 2 for you. total 6 boards. It will either be 5 Kg (34 Euros) or 10 Kg (45 euros). about $13 for USPS parcel post from me to San Francisco. If it is 10 Kg, it will be about $60 + $13 = $73, divided by 6 keyboards, around $12 shipping each keyboard.
Would that work?
-

Am I still part of your buy?
-
I also would get 2 complete boards if we can do the shipping right. Let me know I am down for 2 sets of keys right now; can change :-)
-
Sorry if I produced misunderstandings:
Everybody who got a message that he is part of the first batch of 9 boards is not listed here. This list is only for the second and final batch of 20 boards.
-
I am interested in a full keyboard to the USA if there is one left after all those spoken for to this point.

Does anyone have a good keypuller cheap for sale?
I would really need one for all this keypulling! =)

That is my favorite puller. I can pull 95% of the keys off any board with that in a very small amount of time. Any board with cherry stabilizers is the easiest though, so it would work really well for the one's you'll be going through.
-
I think that the puller you show can scratch the keycaps.
-
eBay.com from Germany would be possible I think (never tried it), but I fear free airmail from Hong Kong would be a little slow...

He took a $3 offer from me and ended up with 2 :D

That plastic looks pretty thick.
On tight keys, I sometimes have trouble even getting a wire puller between keys. And especially tight holes like Escape and small clusters.
I suppose Cherries are not as tight as some others.
-
Today I organized all the packaging material and will start preparing the first packages.
I will post an updated orderlist in about 7 hours and write the PMs concerning payment and shipping etc.
When everything works as planned, all packages can start their journey at saturday!
Everyone who uses a delivery form with tracking will get the tracking number just after that.
-
Here the updated FULL order list:
(http://tyrael.de/tarkoon/list2.png)
Based on this I will send you PMs with payment information.
I ship at saturday for everyone who has paid till then and of course sent me his shipping address.
If there are still errors in that list, we will solve them in the payment/shipping PMs.
EDIT:
Sorry dr_disciple, you are in the USA not in singapore! =)

For everyone who asked for the labeling...
BLUE is padprinted onto the doubleshots in a really perfect quality: (doubleshotkey with blue padprinting)
[ATTACH=CONFIG]36648[/ATTACH]
Only the following keys are not doubleshots: (ALL other caps are doubleshot, even the symbols around the arrows!!!)
[ATTACH=CONFIG]36647[/ATTACH]
Here one of these not doubleshot caps in detail: (the printing is in perfect match to the doubleshot you see in picture1)
[ATTACH=CONFIG]36646[/ATTACH]

They look pretty good even if they're not Doubleshot.

I was offline because it was night here in Germany. Even Europeans sleep sometimes! ;-)
I have all packets ready for the ones from whom I had the money before going to sleep at 1am after 4 hours of packing, pulling caps etc. For the others I will go to the post office at monday after work.
Did it work for you with PayPal or do you need some further advice?
-
UPDATE:
Most orders are shipped, but because a few people jumped of, there are some keyboards and/or caps left!
So everyone who is interested, here is another chance! =)
If this post on Deskthority (http://deskthority.net/viewtopic.php?t=139) is correct, the G80-2551HADs have Vintage Cherry MX Blacks!
-
Received mine yesterday! Awesome keys and look very nice. Thanks Tarkoon! Going to submit positive iTrader feedback for you. Please do the same for me. Thanks.

Yah I have some clients that are supposed to be coming down from Seattle tomorrow. Probably won't happen. First real snow we have had this winter.

One of the last three people with still open orders just jumped off a few hours ago, so there are 2 complete keyboards or sets of keycaps available again!
-
PM sent!
Hopefully there is one left for me.

PMed.

Pmd again. Sorry for communication lapse. I've been away from gh forums for a few and forgot all about this buy! Going to paypal immediately. Aplologies.

SOLD
-
Until now I held back 4 keyboards / sets of keycaps for myself, but because I added more stuff to my phantom order, I decided to reduce my stock to 2 boards to save some money for the phantoms.
So there are two last keyboards / sets of keycaps available now!
First two PMs are in!
SOLD

it looks like mine has finally cleared customs. do these boards eat AT or XT, or one of the terminal gibberishes covered by the soarer converter?
