I dig the oreotaku too, LoLz. =)

ripster, you got to stop posting food! Hmmm... maybe I should just eat more consistently =(

I really dig the white otaku and the LEDs are nice, but they look really deep blue in person. I think I might swap mine out for some white ones I have.

I would love to try that 30 gram Realforce that he has in a different auction.

Again no shipping to the EU, but the price is going up anyway. Might turn out to be quite high for a keyboard with no num lock...

EDIT2: Is this the last brown-cherry one EK has? The site seems to list only blue cherry otakus of the white variety.

Sold for $89. Not bad, even if it was an RMAd model.

No it wasn't RMA'd. It was brand spankin new, just had one switch replaced that was faulty from the factory.

And yes, shipping to the EU was available. I guess no one reads ebay listings in any amount completeness;) Either that is ebay's fault for wanting to stuff so much junk at the top of the page as to tire people's eyes out, or folks browsing auctions just look at the first photo and the price then move along. Oh well. Done with ebay.

No one really sniped for it then, was at $88 for awhile. I would have been all over it for blues also. why is it that the brown switch board has blue leds and the blue board has green leds. blue switches should have blue or white leds. /:

Exactly. Mine do now. Blue LED for Cherry blues (Scorpius M10); red LEDs for browns/blacks/b-springs with Red legends or red-dyed caps.

I should check your future listings, but Ebay did tell this at the top of the page:

Ships to:   United States

For such auctions, I couldn't bid in the past unless by contacting the seller to make an exception for me.

If you do ship worldwide, please fix the auction summary accordingly as Ebay doesn't care what the text says.
