Looks like all the in stock Leopolds are now $89.
EK Edition of 87U is $269 (45g uniform)
87Us starting at $259
(via newsletter)
-
Lol @ EK edition. Like they don't sell anywhere else
-
I am guessing they call it that because of the price point? Oh... it's because it's uniform. LOL.
Anyway, those are some good prices =).
-
Red LEDs is the real differentiator I guess...

EK Edition:

EK Edition also doesn't come with the lavender WASD keys it seems.
-
the difference is red LEDs versus the regular which is blue LEDs
-
Shame that clears aren't included!

They're sold out AFAICT.

Don't feel too bad. WASD will have fullsize and tenkeyless Cherry MX Clear boards at the end of they year.
I will be buying one, I think that the WASD chassis is fulgy, too rounded and the bezel is pretty big!
-
nice catch metafour! but i don't think the wasd lavender keys are even worth 10 bucks haha.
the red esc key looks better with the red LEDs too! just ordered it wheeee
-
Just bought a fullsize mx blue! I planned on buying it next week and hopped on the email right away!
-
Are the lavender PBT? I know they are ABS for the cherry boards
-
it looks like he just pulls the lavender wasd and charges 15 for them separated :/

Its a shame that EK is our only reliable source for topre keyboards and keycaps...

Well they are the cheapest atm for non europe
And woww didnt know the wasd costs $15
-
I wonder if they are having a sale on the Leopolds because they are getting the new ones in soon ? :eyebrows:
-
or he's getting out of leopold products...
-
Either that or Brian is getting out of the business.
Wouldn't everything go on sale in that case? (HHKB, keycaps, etc.)
-
Glad I waited a few days to pick one up! obviously clearing out stock to bring in the 700's with PBT caps, but i'll be replacing them anyways so big deal!
-
It's nice to see 87u's at lower prices. I might even pick up an all white one.
-
How much are they usually?
-
They were like 290-310 before the drop
-
They don't have the clear leopolds for sale for 89, pity.

I wish they did because I really wanted to try that switch.

It's basically a really heavy brown. Think brown but harder to press than black.
-
That is clearly FUD and not fair to Elitekeyboards.
"Female Urinary Device" ? Hey, I had to Google it, but I don't understand the connection. (JK)
-
Why is EK always changing their prices?

Not unless he's soldering the stuff himself. Costar doesn't use clears and it's mentioned nowhere in his timeline for new products.
-
I'm kind of upset about the sales, not that the sales are happening, but I bought my keyboard for 99 dollars, and three days later it's 89 QQ

I would email them. They might be cool and refund you, or send you some swag. like a WASD cluster or something. You never know...
-
I did email them, they haven't sent anything back, most likely because of memorial day weekend.

of course, hopefully the keyboard comes in tomorrow, but they sent it through fedex, so I won't remain too hopeful, also got some keycaps coming in too haha

Now you know how these people (http://www.buzzfeed.com/katienotopoulos/sad-people-who-just-bought-the-ipad2) felt. At least it's only $10

I feel no pity for those that buy apple products :3

I'mma wait until they stock the 700's, the sales are good but not good enough to give up PBT keys

Or that delicious grey color. Sign me up for that.

Will the Rosewills still have the horrid logo?
That alone will prevent me from ever buying one.
edit - off-topic - sorry - I was thinking that this was part of the discussion

When will the promotion on the full size leopold otaku reds going to be over? Really factors into my decision of choosing my keyboard :(
-
Added the Leopold Brown Otaku to my cart and it seems like it's also been discounted to $89, so I bought it. Awesome!

This is probably a price mistake, they're probably gonna fix it soon now that you've mentioned it. :O

Mine is usually slowimpreza. :)

Not sure if you're serious, but thanks! AP2 driver here.
If you drive an Impreza, that's an awesome car also!
Now on the subject of keyboards, I just hope my order doesn't get cancelled now!
-
Just ordered my TKL Otaku browns!
-
I had this happen once, they notified me of the pricing error and offered me the option of paying the difference or cancelling the order. Ideally not the best situation, but they were very nice about it. Accidents do happen.
