Title: [WTT]: My Black 87u CASE for your White 87u CASE [COMPLETED]
Post by: daerid on Mon, 14 January 2013, 10:43:05

I want to trade cases only. I really like the look of white boards with black letters, so I'm hoping somebody out there likes the idea of a black board with white letters.

We'll pay for our own shipping, no money will change hands.

For anyone who is curious what it looks like:

I know my alt and spacebar are upside down. If you do a lot of Maya/Illustrator/Photoshop at work, you would understand.

Just lift the four tabs at the bottom. No tools required.

Edit: I guess I could be more specific. Turn the board upside down with the corded end away from you. On the edge closest to you, there are four slots with tabs. Use your fingernail to pull each of the tabs toward you to unhook it from the base. Once you have all four unhooked, turn the board back over, and lift the top half of the case from the front edge. It should pivot and unhook from the back edge. You'll probably kick yourself once you realize how easy it is...haha.
