Title: [WTS/T] Imsto Thick PBT RealForce Anniversary caps (Cherry MX)
Post by: remedyhalopc on Fri, 26 April 2013, 23:56:32
Imsto's thick PBT caps. Cherry MX. Comes with the full 104 key set.

Horrible picture of the caps:

Horrible picture of the caps part two:

Sorry for the potato pics. I tried to edit the color a little bit to bring out some more life like colors, but I'm essentially correcting **** anyway. As soon as it's nice outside enough for a picture it's happening.

Other people take better photos than I:

This is just so you can get a more accurate idea of the colors, rather than using my ****ty lighting photos

$75 for the caps. They're brand new.

Parts a alone cost ~$170, and that's not counting his labor of completely modding it.

Plate can be anodized, but you already soldered everything on, so probably not haha. You forgot to mention that you converted it to plate-mounted cherry stabilizers  ;)

yeah the modding was a solid 7 hour adventure :P

good catch! Cherry stabs take big poops on costar. I really hated them at first, but now they feel amazing and I can't imagine owning a keyboard without cherry stabs.


Edit:

if you're interested in trying a variable set up, I have enough blues laying around to make the mods a lighter weight. I really enjoy having a variable set up with the greens and blues. It just feels nice.

Good luck with the sales, most peeps out there wouldn't understand the actual cost and effort involved to get it modded, and to minimize the loss to sell it.

this board, definitely worth $130..  Your labor at minimum wage alone is worth $37.5 add in the fact that it's Green and and leds + the black.. $130 is a bargain.

Shame, if these were reds I know someone who would snatch this immediately. Such an awesome board, GLWS.

Tell them to buy some red stems & springs or black stems & light springs then swap them. Then they can sell the greens and get some money back :)

This. It'd be so easy with that phantom plate. Wouldn't even require soldering... jelly. I want that plate.

just a general FYI: costar stabs are possible with this plate, but it'll require some filing or sanding to get them to fit. IIRC the slots are .005 or something too big.

Thick PBT like the rest of the caps. This set isn't from SP :)

PBT like Jocelyn said. It's straight as well.


The board is pending.

Bump. Caps still for sale. Wildcard hasn't replied to my PM from yesterday.

He's still got first priority, but if he doesn't want them anymore you can jump in and get the caps. I'll wait for his response first though.

Please don't bump more than once per day.  If you lower the price or add new info as you've done a couple of times, that counts as your daily bump.
