ALL GONE
-
In for one!
-
Im in for 1!!
-
I'll be in for one too
-
ill grab one.
-
I'll take one. Thanks!
-
I want but I no wanna spend the $$$ My wallet is already hurting...
-
Also, if you prefer, I would be willing to desolder all the switch for a $10 fee if you do not want the entire board and save on shipping a little. Estimated shipping for keyboard in US would be $16, International $30.
-
In for one. Thanks.
-
In for one.
-
PM sent to those who have posted so far.
-
one for me please.
-
In for one if shipping would be less than $30. Otherwise, I'm out!
Just saw your post about shipping lysol, so I'll just say I'm in.
-
In for one
-
10 down 6 left. PM sent to all posted so far. Also, if you have not added your location to profile, please post it if you want to pay shipping up front. If I have sent a pay for shipping later message and you want to pay all up front for entire board shipping you know the applicable rates and adjust the total accordingly when pay.
Thanks.
-
I'm interested!
-
I'm interested if these are actual clears and shipping isn't too steep to Australia.
-
The exact same model was sold here on GH classified and it says they are browns not clears.
http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=14302.0
The caps alone will sell quickly at $45+(from the looks of the condition of the caps) and browns probably at $20, so the pricing seem to be pretty decent even if it is browns.
-
woohoo! put me in please :)
i think I'll pay shipping up front too
-
I would like one if you can ship to germany (I can cover extra shipping if needed!)
-
Agh, I probably shouldn't, but I can't help myself. I'm in for one.
-
I'm in if there are any left
-
And that looks like they are all spoken for. Clears were confirmed with seller not assumed by me. I asked many questions before negotiating this price down from $90 a board. PMs sent. Please everyone get paid up asap I already have an invoice waiting to be paid for all of these. The faster you pay, the faster they are in the mail.
-
It is interesting they have both clears and browns for the same model number.
Either way, pretty good deal!
-
Yes, Cherry used the same model number code for both browns and clears. You have to physically check the board to tell which it has. :(
-
I haven't asked YUIOP yet, but I was wondering if we could combine shipping somehow...and if it'd be cheaper. Any idea lysol?
-
That is fine with me if you want to arrange something to ship together. 2 boards cost same since flat rate priority 23" x 12" x 3" box, I think can fit 2 boards in there.
-
Sorry, I think I don't actually need those switches and caps anymore, so I'm out.
There is one board left! Get it now!
-
There was waiting list, so duq is up for jil_jil32's spot. If anyone else drops out, dante is next.
-
6 have still not paid, please pay within 48 hours or I will start giving your spots away to waiting list. I want to move this along and avoid delays for all involved. Thanks.
-
Put me on the waiting list in case some lazy bum doesn't pay.
-
Looks like someone can take mine, I found me the keys I was looking for from this keyboard
Going to PM lysol too
-
dante and danielucf have taken the two spots left by tsangan and magicmeatball. PM incoming guys.
-
Are these PS2 or USB?
-
according to bini, USB.
ISO version was PS2
-
HUBUS vs HPBUS U for usb, P for ps/2... one of the only sensible Cherry designations... but watch it, it is not always true LOL. But these are USB, I didn't think to mention it before. Bad on me for just assuming people would harvest the boards for other uses.

Yeah, I plan on using mine with my other one (in Browns, from reptile) as the best split keyboard ever.
Thanks for the info on the moder numbers. Can you also elucidate me as to the difference between this HUBUS and my HUAUS?
(Sending payment now)

3 digit model codes, I know them, 5 digit model codes are like deciphering the mysteries of the universe. Basically with the 5digit all I care about is first letter and the 2 letter language code at the end. whatever is in between I figure out later. Usually has interface and switch for 2nd and 3rd but not consistent.
-
Third letter is for the card reader (number of/which tracks) for quite a few POS board models.
-
I guess there is another opening again, someone claim it.
-
I only buy new POS boards... I can't stand it if I know somebody else used it... Plus I still have to pay a few hundred for the nixie chessboard... That price is good though so somebody will snatch it up before tomorrow. GLWS.

Anal-retentive is the word you're looking for.
-
litster has given up their spot, so still one board available. I went ahead and paid the invoice to get them moving. Should be with me by end of next week.
-
Why is everyone dropping?
-
Why is everyone dropping?
Kinda wondered that myself.
-
Some stated they found the few keycaps they wanted off the boards elsewhere. Other stated financial reason. No big deal, others stepped up to claim those boards and I have paid for all of them so there wouldn't be anymore delay.
-

I'll take it if its still available.
-
Sure thing Zwi, PM'd.
-
All boards accounted for and paid. A few of you I still need to get back with on shipping options. Thanks everyone.
-
Got update that these are on the way to me USPS2306 1570 0001 0730 3864.
-
w00t!
-
Oh man they are coming from Daytona? I could have driven over there to pick mine up :p

Good news is I received the keyboards today.
Bad news is many of you are likely to be quite disappointed. Only 9 of them are doubleshots, and NONE of them have clears, all browns.
I have tried to contact the seller about this, but have not heard back yet. I of course will do my utmost to get this all resolved and refunds issued as soon as possible.
I am terribly sorry.
-
That is really unfortunate news...
Keep us updated!
-
:(
Thanks for the update lysol :)
-
Are there 9 of you that were mostly interested in the doubleshots only that are ok with the price paid? They all are in very very good shape, near mint. At least we have that.
-
What are the options you think may take place? Shipping them all back for refund, keeping the double shots, etc.
edit: It seemed like a great deal before because clears and double shots for either regular use and/or for parts. Browns are less enticing for switch harvesting but I was excited to get my first cherry double shots and cherry keyboard. If the consensus is this is still a good deal I might be interested still, even this keyboard with browns is pretty pricey on ebay.
I can't remember, is this the model where the ctrl, alt, etc keys will fit most ansi keyboards without needing to buy a moogle kit?
-
I have no idea how reasonable the seller is going to be at this point. They flat out lied to me, so I don't have high hopes. Ideally, I would like to be able to let 9 of you have the good boards, and have them resolve the rest of it in a sane manner. But if they aren't reasonable and I have to file paypal dispute, I am not sure what will happen then.
Yes, the doubleshots ones are exactly as the one pictured in the OP, ANSI and no moogle needed as it has the real thing.
-
Well I'm interested, especially if they get cheaper somehow.
-
Well it's not looking good so far. I have been arguing with them in emails now for 2 hours. After testing them 3 are also broken. It's looking like it will have to hopefully be resolved through paypal at this point, they really are not being reasonable. Either way I can afford to refund 5 people right now out of my own money. I don't think it's fair for all of you to have to wait for it to get resolved. Sorry I can't do better than this right now. First 5 to PM me will get the refund immediately. The others will have to wait, and I apologize.
Edit: I finally got them to agree to refund me on the broken ones at least, so as long as 9 of you still want the doubleshots ones, I can live with slowly recouping some of my loss by selling a f*ckton of brown switches, and the pbt sets. So that means I should be able to refund 7 of you now. If there are not 9 of you that do still want these, let me know and I can just have another that is interested in a board pay you directly. This is the best I can do for now, and I hope you all understand.
-
I'm cool with a working one that has doubleshots. I figure that I can grab the doubleshots for myself and give the board (with other keycaps) to a friend who still doesn't have a Cherry MX keyboard.
-
What are cherry PBTs like?
Also you couldn't know that they would lie to you so if it takes a brick off I'd like my first Cherry keyboard and I'll stick with my order.
-
black cherry PBT? i am curious. might be interested if these go up for sale.
-

I'm pretty sure the black cherry non doubleshot keys are actually POM. I have a set, and they are really awesome.
Lysol: This is bad news! I hope we can get it sorted out. I was actually not worried about the keycaps (Wanted to sell those and use the aforementioned lasered set), but I was only interested in clears, since I already have an 8113 with browns.
Keep us updated. I'm sure we can resolve this properly.
-
If they are POM... i am not a big fan... the legends are raised and feel weird and uneven, and all the other bad things people say about pom. Shiny, kind of unpleasant to me.
Still get the wonderful F J scoops though!
-
Got 9 with doubleshots 8113HUBUS-2 and the 5 are white pbt 8113LUAUS-0.
(http://kbdholic.net/img/0405/img_5696.jpg)
Just like this one, and 2 with pom and the crappy ISO enter which were broken and one pbt one is broken.
Like I said, just let me know what you all want to do, if you want a refund I can make it happen now for several people. I want to make it right so I will be taking care of you myself and worry about recouping my loss. If someone is interested in a 8113LUAUS-0 I can work out a deal for that as well. Asides from the 3 broken ones that are all in very good shape at least.
-
You can keep my money until you figure this all out. If my board goes to someone else, I am also OK with that. As far as I am concerned, anything is ok. If you need to hold the funds a while, so be it. It's already paid for, I'm only out a set of caps, not a biggie. Whatever works for you Lysol.
Thanks for your efforts.
-
Sorry you got screwed by the seller on this deal. This in no way reflects badly on you. You are doing a great job trying to handle this in the best way you can.
-
There's no need for you to fall on your sword here, lysol. Selling browns and POM keysets is not going to recoup 7 x $60. We all went in on this together, and we should all share the loss. I'm not sure how to resolve this fairly, but I can't take my money back and let you eat all the consequences.
-
It's such a great community here. I appreciate all of you for being understanding. If some want to work out some other arrangement like a partial refund or something, just PM me and we can discuss it. You're absolutely right, it won't allow me to recoup 100%, but I felt it was the right offer to make. It's not those who participated fault I got f*cked on a bad deal either.
-
Near new, except the one broken.
-
If any more come available, let me know :D
-
I feel really bad because I PMed lysol for refunds when I saw that 'first 5 get refund' post. It was almost a knee-jerk reaction on my part (too much time spent on classified? lol) and I didn't realize lysol was in danger of eating huge chunk of money by himself. Lysol, I have that money sitting in my paypal account, please let me know if there's anything I could do. Just want to let you know I'm willing to share the loss. Thanks.
-
I really am not sure how to work it out so it is fair for everyone. As far as the doubleshots boards go I think the price is still pretty good for near new ansi set even if the switch type was the wrong one. Problem was not enough to go around due to the circumstances. I offered the refund because I felt it was the correct thing, so I can't fault any that accepted it. If you want to share in the loss that is up to you and I will certainly appreciate it.
-
For me $60 is a good price for the doubleshots, but the $30 for shipping a keyboard with browns here seems a bit crazy, so that I'd like to skip.
Then again I have no idea if I'm allowed a set of doubleshots, since everyone can't have one.
I'm not in any hurry to get any money back, so please keep it until we get this solved somehow. I agree with hashbaz though, and think we should share the loss. Alas I have no idea how we could make it fair for everybody.
-
Like for example, I can give you partial refund on the shipping, send you the caps only and keep the browns to sell. That would be an easy way for you to share the loss.
-
Good thinking! Sounds very much fair to me. Still sounds like you'd lose on this deal overall, even though maybe not as much.
-
Dunno how I missed the thread updates!
Anyway, lysol you can do whatever you want with my money for now and you can send me whatever lol. Whatever makes it easiest on you. This was a group buy, and everyone involved should have known there may have been some risks, like with any purchase. If I can eventually get a refund, or get shipped some doubleshots, or lasered keycaps, it doesn't matter to me. Whatever you deem fair will be fair with me.
Hope that eases some of the problem...
-
I think it mostly settled, still waiting to hear back from 2 people, but those that wanted refunds have mostly gotten them, and ones who still want the doubleshot there should be enough for those that want them. The broken ones I am parting out, and I guess I will try and sell the working LUAUS ones whole first whether here or on ebay.
Yes, I am stuck with these. The invoice didn't have the full model number on it only 8113 which all of them were, and I got refund for the broken ones so paypal does not see anything to my argument.
-
How much for the LUAUS ones shipped? Are they browns underneath too?
-
Yes they are browns, and in near new shape. I will get some pictures of everything up later tonight or tomorrow at the latest. If I could get $50 for the LUAUS that would be ideal to minimize money loss, but I doubt I will be able to ge quite so much out of them here.
-
PM incoming
-
I'll stick with the board w/ doubleshot keycaps.
-
Super, thanks guys.
-
Sad to hear there was a problem. I'm not too sure what the options are, I would still love a board with double shots (even if it has different switches) but I don't know if thats still an option. I don't want to get a refund and leave you with the short end of the stick
-
Yes, you can still have the doubleshots board you paid for of course.
-
How much would you want for a set of the PBTs if they are available from a refunded board? I might be interested if it helps reduce the hit.
-
Yes, you can still have the doubleshots board you paid for of course.
Ok cool I just got confused following the thread and was under the impression there were not enough boards/keycaps to go around
-
Yes Dante $50 shipped USA for 8113LUAUS-0, 3 left.
I also have 3 8113HUBUS-2 left for $70 + shipping, and if you have read through the thread I hope you understand the price increase.
-
Sorry I was not able to get pictures done or the stuff mailed out today. I will do my best to get it all done tomorrow.
Currently available:
3x G80-8113HUBUS-2
2x G80-8113LUAUS-0
1x G80-8113LUAUS-X white pbt keycaps, black case body (repaired by me)
1x G80-8113LUAUS-X black pom keycaps, white case body (repaired by me)
1x G80-8113XUBXX-X no keycaps, black case body
-
in for one, i need international shipping.
-
For international add $15 for whole board, also willing to do just keycaps and switches if the shipping is too steep.
-
I only want the caps from this board :D
2x G80-8113LUAUS-0
Anyone want to part with?
-
I Want to try and sell the complete boards if at all possible first. I do have 2x spare POM sets with ISO enter from the broken ones left though.
-
All shipped! Here are some pics that are representative of what you are getting, and what is left:

Dumb question incoming...
The double shot should fit a flico/wasd/rosewill.... without the moogle right? All I would need is the arrow keys and the page up, page down..... keys? If so, how much do you want shipped? Would you sell just the keys?
-
You are absolutely correct about compatibility. Priority will be given to anyone that wants to buy entire boards. After that I will sell keycap sets if they haven't moved.
-
How much for the whole board (shipped) and what switch type?
edit: Any shine on the keys?
-
Browns, boards are all just like the ones in photos condition wise. Prices are in first post.
-
Do you have any double shot arrow/page up/page down keys that you would be willing to sell with this? They look pretty much brand new, is that the case (imma noob when it comes to ds cherry keys)?
-
Yes they are near mint, almost like right out of the box. The only spare white on black doubleshots nav keys I have are from 1800, so they really aren't much better, have wrong row profile.
-
Sweet, pm me your PP email and I'll send payment. IDK why because I already have to many key cap sets but for $50-$55 (after selling switches) is not bad for a near mint cherry DS set
edit: it is the G80-8113HUBUS-2 right?
-
Anyone else not having the photobucket image links working?
-
Seems there has been some issues with photobucket lately. I was delayed a few days of not even being able to upload stuff last week.
-
Lysol, those pictures are HAWT. I'm going to be very happy with my incoming keyboard, I'm sure. Those white/black ones are especially nice.
I think I'll stagger PBT/POM on mine, or do halves or something. The possabilities are endless!
-
Received my 2-shot set yesterday. Thanks lysol!
-
Thanks, black and white 2tone looks total class too...
I am pretty sure I have all the shipping overages etc I still owed some of you done. If not, or I made an error in the amount don't hesitate to let me know.
-
Got mine and they are pretty much brand new. The F and J do not have anything on them to help you find the home row, is this normal for Cherry double shots? Thinking about putting a small dab of finger nail polish or something on there. Now that I think about it I've seen F and J Cherry double shots with a hold drilled up from underneath, this would explain that.
-
They aren't scooped??
-
dan nooooooo don't ruin your keys just get used to the scoops! you'll come to prefer them i bet... just dont put anything on them or drill holes in them :(
-
You'll get used to the scoops man. Soon you'll wish all your home rows were scooped.
-
They are scooped pretty sure. If you need nubs there are some stick on ones that don't ruin the keycap. Get those.
I do have some that are not scooped, but I don't think any of the boards I sent out were flat FJ. I also have a black on white set that have FJ center dot nubs like the numpad 5.
-
lysol, you should collect all your unique and rare Cherry caps into one photo.
-
Scoooopz are too sick.
-
hot damn they are scooped. Cherry keys just blew my mind, Going to put them onto my FC700R right now.
-
I have most of it in my trade thread actually...
lysol, you should collect all your unique and rare Cherry caps into one photo.
I have some of it in my trade thread (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=28549.0) actually... but not all in one photo. If I put everything all in one photo it would be zoomed out so far you couldn't see what it was!
-
I love it so far. I know the arrow keys and such on the right are not all the correct profile but it doesn't look too bad and I can acquire non relengdable*spelling down the road. I am now a huge fan of cherry double shots. Scoops FTW.

These lasered PBTs are pretty freaking sweet...
(http://i.imgur.com/vQj8C.jpg)
-
I'd be curious how much it is to get just a set of black doubleshots off the keyboards shipped to Canada if there's any still available.
-
Sorry all the doubleshot version are gone, only have lasered version left.
-
Mine came in.
Pro's:
Works
Looks almost unused
USB
PBT
Screwless construction
Con's
THIN PBT
3 clips holding it together in the front broke
Shipping damage:
Box looked like it'd been sat on.
2 keycaps fell off. No big deal.
The numpad enter key stabilizer came off, but it wasn't broken or anything, so I got a good look at it and reseated it.
---
I put on some thick Lasered POM to replace the thin PBT. It looks good with a black/white theme.
I replaced:
A-Z
` and 1-9 and -=
esc and F1-F12
Arrowkeys
The 0 . and 1-9 on the tenkey.
I might do the spacebar, too.
-
I got mine yesterday. Despite just buying the board for the caps, I kinda like the board. I might keep it and mod it to fit a Raspberry Pi since there seems to be a lot of room in the case to fit one.
-
Got my DS board yesterday. Thanks! Already temporarily swapped lasered keys on it, will eventually ninja/blank relegend it. Don't like its poor nkro, but dig that most of the board can be set for macros with the downloadable cherry software. May or may not swap in black switches (going to give brown a chance).
-
Sorry to hear the USPS abused and delayed the package dorkvader. I hope it wasn't because my packaging was insufficient.
-
Sorry to hear the USPS abused and delayed the package dorkvader. I hope it wasn't because my packaging was insufficient.
No sir! Your packing looked just fine for a keyboard. I'm very happy with this, and am using it now. USPS probably used it for volleyball or something. It's a testament to cherry's durability that it survived so well. You should have seen the box.
-
Can I get just caps from the black pom board? I'm in the UK btw.
-
Do you ship to Brazil?
Can you please calculate the costs?
Thanks.
-
Yes I can ship to Brazil. Total would be $75 with first class USPS shipping, add $12 if you need tracking.
-
Just found on the thread they have clears and not browns.
I'm looking for browns, so sorry about that.
I promise to read the entire thread before jumping into the contact from now on.
-
No they have browns. Perhaps I should have include that info in the first post. Not having clears is why I still have some left, as many that originally wanted one of these were only buying based on clears.
-
Perfect!
I want white body and black keys.
Can you reserve one until this Friday? This way my Credit Card will only bill me on December :)
Thanks.
-
Shouldn't be a problem. PM me when you ready to pay.
-
Yay! Finally getting rid of these, only 1 left.
-
Lemme know if you end up just wanting to sell the keys if no one else ends up nabbing it complete ;)
-
How does that trackpad work? Is it essentially the same as on a laptop?
-
The trackpad does work without drivers. The card read does need the cherry tools driver/program to "work" mine just beeped at me and I got some random numbers. I'm sure someone smarter tham me can make the card reader functional
-
Yes trackpad works just like laptop, it shows up as generic poining device and require no additional driver. It has 800 or 1200dpi depend on which revision of the synaptics pad is installed. Card reader only works in application that are card reader aware, you can test it in Cherry tools but it's not needed for it to function I don't think. Also you can program all the extra keys to macros or anything else in Cherry tools.
-
It would be neat to have the card reader work as a security key reader to unlock your computer.
-
Could be possible if you know how to set that up? There is a similar model that has smartcard reader just for that type of thing actually.
