Title: 2 Focus FK-2001 keyboards for $100 or less on ebay
Post by: fohat.digs on Wed, 11 April 2012, 20:05:56

Maybe good, maybe not.

Just in case you are interested. These can be nice boards.

Is this still available ? If I do a search on eBay, it doesn't show up, but your link seems ok. I'm doing something wrong here ?

Yup...........have 1 and it is not a bad keyboard- white sliders. Don't you think the $100.00 is a little pricey though? The one has the hard to find amber cover which I'm sure jacks the price up, but I've seen cheaper say $30.00-$40.00 inc. shipping. I like the feel better than Dell 101 boards, although nothing wrong with that 1 either.

Build quality wise, these keyboards are definitely not worth the 100 dollar price tag. Very flimsy. If you want complicated Alps, this is a good donor, but for around 15-20 .

I'd only buy one NIB or like-new. that's just me
But yeah the Fk2001 (non-winkey version) is a classic. Def has a spot in the pantheon of great keyboards

Because the seller has listed that he will only ship to united states it won't come up in searches if you're using the canadian ebay search.
