Glad you didn't get one then, since you would have had not appreciation of it.

What lysol said. I will cherish this board by sleeping with it every night. Wife, please move over.
Ukrainian American like it too :) please keep me in mind if you want to sell/trade it.
Why would anyone want that :p
If the person isn't Russian ofc

Because the keycaps are some of the nicest Cyrillic-caps ever made .
The English lettering is Double-Shot, the Cyrillic is RED Dye-Sublimation ..
And they are surprisingly rare, apparently most of those produced by Cherry ended up in some land-fill
because they where to expensive at the time .

I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure it's 100% dye sub since it's hard to double shoot PBT and you can't dye sub ABS sooo.....
Cyrillic (1988-1992) (in two versions, one with pad printed cyrillic letters, one with sublimation dyed ones - one of the most expensive sets to Korean collectors, beige only)http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=13693.0
Cyrillic (2007) - 104 keys, Entire set of white double shot keys with red laser infill. One of the rarest sets and one of the last official boards with double shots.
I have only this 3 pcs, no more... :)
Damn, I had the chance to buy one but my German is pretty damn rusty so I didn't know you could just buy. I thought they were in the bidding phase :(

Just gotta click the buttons yo!!
Even though I get one, I am also somehow sad. Now I will have nothing left to search for really. Also, there went most of what I had set aside for a GTX670 that I kind of need. I suppose I can sell a couple of my 1800 to recover.

I can't really read the German that well, I'm much better at speaking it but even that's pretty **** ATM

Why oh why couldn't they list for same price again? $200 shipped... ugh.
No they are with pad print.

These are for sure dye subs only. No pad printing.

This seller list as international, so they actually did show up on ebay.com and ebay.whatever too I assume.
Red Cherry esc used to be rare too ;)
Or how about this rare board. All the colored caps, except for the F1-F4 and the Q are Cherry dye subs:

So that board is different than this one where the label says they are lasered?

Did you mean to link something?
Either way, they are for sure dye subs. I have the board in front of me. I was surprised when I got it since i thought only a few of them would be dye subs. I was pleasantly surprised.
What's even weirder is they are Cherry Corp dye subs with a font I have NEVER seen them use for dye subs. It's the older font used on lasered caps...and it doesn't even match the thin PBT caps that fill in the rest of the board.

that is a pretty cool find then for them to be dye sub.
It's a G80- 3000 LANUS. ;)
I've actually passed on Leitch a few times. They pop up on ebay now and then for $20-40ish.I want one, if only for the "kill DT" key.

There are still lots of rare Cherry keyboards and Cherry caps I bet you don't have. Like this rare dye sub set:

Both of these will take you a lot more time to find than Cyrillic dye subs...those are child's play. Actually, the first link is the only set I know of. Talked to a handful of Koreans and none of them have ever seen a set before.

Sir :
You have composed the best thread-crapper post EVER !
I bow down to the dirt and salute You and Your caps-collection !!!!
Now, on to reading the rest of the thread ..
Good lord, it's gone past 500 EUR...
That's true, I've yet to try dye subs but really wanted the cryllic legends. :)
I bought one from this seller.sad to hear that you can't get a russian board in a "acceptable" price.
But Today I got the message from buying service.
"Sorry, We check again and then out of stock now"
Yeah why this seller tell me now after five days?
I think it might be associated with this.

It's already over 505 euro daxx it.
Very greedy seller, I have never seen before like him.
He might pretend he doesn't have. He sell or put them at auction again.
Anyone received the keyboard yet? I think lysol and Peter received theirs. I haven't received mine yet. lysol, are you on the east coast?me too litster
Oh man, I had forgot about this thread.
Don't worry those that didn't get one, you can buy peter's. It's on ebay for $750 to start and if you can't wait 9 days, it can be your's right now for the low low price of $2275.
Not selling. I am a mechanical keyboard collector!Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/K7TL8.jpg)

I haven't taken all caps off to look under the caps, but I am very sure they are all dye sub.
Yes they are 100% dyesub, both legend. Mine also has vintage blacks and NKRO, so it's also a nice winkeyless ansi 3000 in addition to the keycaps. Now, only to exchange the AT cable for PS/2 one so I don't have to use retarded adapter :)

I got the ps/2 cable covered, have some new Cherry ones I got from somebody for just these kind of thing. No fancy converter needed for AT to PS/2 swap.What I meant was soldering a new one of those connectors onto my cut-off cable (Then plug it into the keyboard internally), but if you've already got it covered, great. Maybe I'll clip both ends and make a sweet coiled USB cable or something.
I haven't gotten around to open it yet, but many model just have a little mini connector so not even soldering is needed. Just unplug one and plug in the other and close it up. If not, then 4 or sometimes 5 solder points is no problem.
