I have had 3 that all had at least a couple of dead keys. I came close to getting out my soldering iron and replacing a few switches, but decided that I would just sell them on ebay to approximately break even.

I think that the ones with the trap door all have white Alps, something less desirable that blue.

Yep I bet those are complicated white alps.
