Title: Overpriced Monterey keyboard?
Post by: 1391406 on Thu, 28 February 2013, 02:30:09

I'm not sure if the switches in this Mtek 104 are Monterey Blues, but at $259.99 I'm wondering if anyone here knows anything about it:

They look like monterey blues to me.  Plus it has a big backspace key unlike the chicony 5181.

Looks legit, but still very much overpriced.

Exactly the same. IIRC I was going to pay with a debit card and the dude just said take it.

Cool to know exactly what model it is, the one I have had it's label removed.
