hmmmm, considering that you don't have to deal with the rest of the rig, i guess it is not all that bad...for those who really want one..
-
If you want it, might as well hit BIN. They don't really seem interested in taking a lower amount.
-
If you want one, you might as well buy the actual Finisar GT that's sitting on there.
-
That dude wants like 800 bucks for the whole thing. So after I (and I'm sure some of you) harassed him about buying the keyboard he figured he could make an easy hundred bucks. 110 bucks... That is such bs. These are so overvalued on ebay.
-
Hmn, I don't think the P11 has an MX keyboard.
Yes they got overpriced, mostly due to us (collectors) being over enthusiastic about them.
-
It's a nice board. But that's a lot. Is it hard to get working with ps/2 or USB controller?

He was willing to go down to $100 for me the on the phone like a few days ago :P
-
$30 shipping definitely kills it.

Think you can wire it to work with PS/2. Bini is selling some refitted mx1800 and dolch board is one of the internal he uses.
-
Yeah they are just AT/PS2 with a non standard RJ11 connector as far as I have seen. I think there was a model or 2 that had a regular AT din5 instead of the RJ. Should just be a simple cable swap. Some make a little adapter so they can use it on both ps2 and the luggable.

With a little soldering experience it's a pretty easy swap. You can put the innards into a G81 case or keep it in the original case.
-
Definitely gotta keep that "Military Grade" case :D

$110 + $30 is too expensive. Please exercise self control. The right price will come.
-
i want a dolch set really bad.
but not 140 bad.
-
Pretty extreme, R4 extreme!
-
don't feed the greedy merchant!!
-
Well I sent an offer and didn't expect him to take it. lmao now I have 2 dolch sets
-
What did you end up getting it for if you don't mind saying?

Just bought it for the caps? The keyboard is the best part!
-
Caps are cool, but it is a really nice blues board. If I ever manage to get one, I will keep it intact, but perhaps put it in a regular 1800 body.
-
it sold for $50.
-
it sold for $50.
Yup. But it isn't just for the caps as I already have a set on the way. You guys might see me puting a set up for trade soon though :hat:
-
$50 WTF... I offered that douche more eariler and was refused.
-
$50 plus $30 shipping.
-
I think I offered the same thing $50 + $30 shipping and he said no :P
That was a good 2 weeks ago I think

I figured people offered more. Just got lucky:cool:
-
I even called him :P
-

Call him again and use some choice epithets.
-
Well at least it went for cheaper, even if I didn't get it, as that helps lower the median price in the future for the next listings for those sellers that look.
-
It's only going higher these days
-
You're welcome... I have been working him with low-ball offers to loosen him up. Before I got to him with my next offer you stole this! Yes, I am whining. But it looked like the low-ball offers might have worked out for someone. Just not me. :jaw: I was hitting him with $20.00... Then $25... You get the idea.
-
Check the ones I got from Jesuswasazombie today :-)

Look at all that texture, like new. I wonder how pristine the PAC they came off was.
-
You should see it. Fantastic. I wish my camera took better pics.
Hope you enjoy them Reptile!
-
You just put some plain black 2shots on your pac instead or something?
-
I've had my hands on 5 or 6 sets of Dolch caps. they have all been nearly 95% brand new. Most pristine.
-
Seems like the 65's generally see a lot less use.
-
It helps that the keycaps are facing the LCD screen, closed, when not in use.
-
Yeah I got clickeys GB on my PAC 64 board and just caught that new GB for RGB w/1.5s but I'm still missing keys...
-
If anyone of you still has a spare Dolch PAC keyset, PM me to sell it :)
-

Yep.

Might as well pay the few extra dollars for one of the whole machines. At least it might be amusing to play with. Oh, and I love that $1,250 one that is from NASA supposedly LOL.
-
I know right? lol
