Title: [WTS] CM Storm Trigger (109-key) MX Green - Withdrawn.
Post by: Tarzan on Wed, 03 April 2013, 09:39:49
CM Storm Trigger with Green switches.  Superb switches, solid feel and nice tactility.  Used it for a gaming keyboard for a bit, then as a work keyboard, but I don't like the red LED lighting. 

For sale or trade for a similar keyboard with green LED illumination.  Open to all options.

Looking for:

Ducky Year of the Dragon Green LED (Black switches)(not a TKL fan, but my birth year is Dragon  :) )
Ducky DK9008 Shine II Green LED (Black switches/white key caps)

Other options...?  Boards with Cherry Grays/Whites/Clears?  As long as they have green LED lighting, I am open to any and all suggestions.

Edit: Price dropped - $110.00 $100.00 shipped CONUS.

I have nothing GREEN to trade except for cash.  Please PM me if that is a Green you are interested in.

Thanks

I may put the CM board up for sale if there's no interest in trades, money is indeed fungible.  But I'm hoping I can trade the MX Green keyboard for some other board that's currently out of stock, trading for something money can't buy, if you follow me.

Plus, I'm hoping people suggest interesting options for trade that I hadn't considered, half the fun in owning mechanical keyboards is mining the assembled knowledge base for more information.  Maybe someone has a back-lit Cortron board collecting dust in a closet, or maybe Aydin Controls made an illuminated version that's somehow compatible with Windows.  Unlikely, I know, but you never can tell.   :)

No one's looking for trades right now?  The CM Trigger is a nice keyboard...   ;)

No interest in trades, so I'm putting this CM Trigger board up for sale.  Looking for 120.00 shipped, CONUS.  Open to international shipping as well, but that's likely to be expensive - pretty solid keyboard.

sorry i can't buy from you - just bought one myself and it is in transit. But the price is quite fair. Can I ask you how you feel about greens? Are they really better than blues leading to them being more desirable?

I think MX Greens are still my favorite switch, out of the ones I've tried so far.  MX Whites are a close second (typing on those now).  MX Greens are both tactile and substantial, definitely a robust keyboard feeling.

The only reason I'm selling is because I want to get a keyboard with green back-lighting, the CM Trigger has red LEDs.   Not a lot of selection in the heavier spring weights, though.   :(

If you like your current keyboard, LEDs are pretty cheap and I could even install them for you.

I appreciate the offer!  I do have 200 or so cyan/green LEDs on the way, depending on interest in the Trigger I may go that route.

I'm a bit reluctant to tear into a perfectly good keyboard if someone else is looking for an CM keyboard with MX Green switches.  I'd rather find a cheap donor board with a sturdy case, and update it with MX White switches (also on order...) and the aforementioned LEDs to get a custom board that suits me better.

Where do you buy the trigger MX Green?

I bought it from the Cooler Master online store:

Not really, I have two Model M's already.  At this point, since there's been no interest in trading for a keyboard with green LED back-lighting, I'm just looking to sell it.

Looks like there's no interest in this board, so I'm going to take it apart for some other project.  Thread closed.
