Title: White on black Cherry DS keysets
Post by: scrubadub on Fri, 06 April 2012, 15:04:37
I need to clean house and wanted to put these out before the R3 Moogle GB closes. I have two used 104-key sets of white on black Cherry doubleshots for sale. Most of the keys are compatible with a modern keyboard (e.g., Leopold or Filco) except for the stepped caps lock and the bottom row. These are from the GBs that Quarzac and Clickey ran, so there are definitely shiny keys (in particular, F4). But they still look great!The only difference between the two sets is that there is some sort of hard glue-like substance on the left side of the R (EDIT: T) key and the right side of the T (EDIT: Y) key. I haven't had time to chip away or dissolve it, but figure someone else might. I'll throw in an extra WASD cluster for set #2 (where someone tried to color in the white lettering) as an extra bonus side project.
I accept PayPal as gift or you can pay the fees. Not responsible for loss or damage in transit.Photos added of Set #2. The residue on the T and Y keys lit from the side look worse than they really are, it's a little difficult to see from the top down IMO.[ATTACH=CONFIG]47643[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]47644[/ATTACH]

Good prices! I also got a set from Clickey. Pictures would go a long way since most of his sets varied in condition. GLWS

Photos added. I prefer to avoid shipping internationally because of the minor extra paperwork and hassle but will do so if no one is interested domestically.

Set #2 is available again, haven't heard back in awhile from the interested buyer. I will ship internationally if desired but am not responsible for loss or damage from transit. For an estimate of price, use the USPS website - it's $17 in a small flat rate Priority box, or about 8-9 oz if shipping first class.

DangWang, these ones are extra special - I got them from you! Anything passing through your collection is extra worthwhile :-p

The funny thing is that I replaced the keys with mint white on black DS keys. Now I don't want to touch the keys for fear of ruining the fresh minty texture. Maybe I should just keep the used set and sell the mint ones...

Haha, nothing is better than a mint set.  I went through 4-5 different sets before I finally got a good condition one and then a new set popped up on ebay, both of which I use on a normal basis.  I decided, if I'm going to have all this stuff, I might as well use it instead of keeping it in a closet!

shawn o,

If you don't need all the keys from this set, I need specific ones. See my thread.

http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?30027-White-on-black-Cherry-DS-SPECIFIC-KEYS (http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?30027-White-on-black-Cherry-DS-SPECIFIC-KEYS)

I would pay what scrubadub is asking for the whole set ($17+$5) if you could part with just those keys I need.

Just an idea...

I need everything! Might have extras in a week or so. Have a couple used keyboards off ebay on the way to me also.

Aside from what you see in the pictures for keys T and Y (I think), you'll get a set that's a little more used than the set I bought from you.  There are a decent amount of shiny keys, but for the price (considering I paid around $30 for your set) I think it's certainly acceptable.  The numpad is also in significantly better condition :)

Both sets are sold. Thanks for all the interest.
