Title: SOLD 87 PBT Black Engraved Keycaps for Cherry MX Switches
Post by: Von Steve on Thu, 05 January 2012, 03:21:33
Bought these around summer time from qtan but decided not to use them after all and have just been sitting here BNIB, unused. Looking for $40 shipped. Looks the same as the ones qtan has posted. All the keys come in a total of 3 plastic Ziploc bags.

Negative.

I merely asked him his location, as I'm in Aus, and if he were this side of the equator, thought perhaps might work out better.

And it was only if someone else hadnt picked them up!

This is why I don't understand the sellers (here and other forums) who simply say "whoever sends me the money first", sometimes without even confirming what email address is associated to their paypal account.  Then multiple people end up sending money and you have to deal with refunds.  I guess that means I also don't understand the people who send money without even knowing that the item is exclusively theirs or that they have the right email address, but that's another conversation :)

I usually contact a seller, if I have a question I'll ask it, or say "I'll take it; please confirm your paypal email".  If I have a simple question, I may say "If it's the one with the red PCB I'll take it....".  I guess I've lost a couple of deals over the years because I don't throw money at people without confirmation but I've probably saved myself a lot of hassle.  Generally, particularly in some of my photography forums, the seller has a pecking order of people who said "I'll take it" which doesn't require throwing large sums of money around haphazardly to be a part of.  I guess every site has different cultures and norms....

Enjoy your PBT caps!

It's a hard knock life on these forums.  If you aren't camping the classifieds, you aren't getting anything good!  Just ask tsangan :)

For some reason, I thought of this song when I was reading this post...

You know what the Midwest is?
Young & Restless
Where restless ... might snatch your necklace
And next these ... might jack your Lexus
Somebody tell these .... who Kanye West is

That is harder then I thought as much as I want the jack I really like my special runs, and no one wants to trade me an additional special run to trade you, and I really want it too, sell it to meeeeeeee.
