Title: [FS] New Realforce 55g
Post by: Mugen on Fri, 08 March 2013, 21:59:55
Hey,
I got a new Realforce 55g (black) keyboard in the mail today (This is the model - http://elitekeyboards.com/products.php?sub=topre_keyboards,rftenkeyless&pid=rf_se1800). i've tried it for a few minutes, really like the Topre feel but the 55g switches are a bit too heavy for me (girl hands >_<) so i think im gonna get the 45g one.
Looking to sell it for $250 shipped (CONUS). Will provide picture upon request,
Cheers,

Sale is pending.

You should try use it for 1 or 2 weeks and get used to it before selling.

Thought about it, but im usually a fan of 45g switches, took a risk with this one and in my mind a keyboard that has been typed on for 3 minutes has higher value than one that was used extensively for a few weeks, dont you think?

I'm surprised there isn't a way for you to exchange it with EK, considering you just got it.  But GWTS, it's my favorite topre switch and I just got mine yesterday.

Well the first thing that's written at the bottom of the page under returns is "No test drives. No exchanges accepted." but i emailed them regardless.
Since shipping the board to them is going to cost me ~15$ it makes no difference if i return or sell it here, if anyone if interested its completely new literally 3 buttons pressed.
Cheers,

erm, am i crazy or doesn't this seem like not much of a deal?  elitekeyboards has it for $260 shipped so you'd be saving like $10 here
