Are those the normal keycaps that would come with one of these?

I paid more for mine and it was in worst condition (slightly yellowed case, brown cable, slight shine on the caps). This one looks nearly NIB other than those stupid caps it has on it

No it would have doubleshots if it was stock. Those look like some custom lasered job, some sort of control pad application? It does look like it should be like mint since it has the plastic cover to have protect it. Also it should be 100% programmable version so the price is not too terrible.

That sounds about right to me for one of those in that condition. Especially if it's Mode 4 compatible, then you can fully program the thing. I'd say it's worth it if you wan't an MX numpad that you can easily modify.

Haven't some come with lasered Cherry caps? I thought that was the difference between the ones that have two tone sets and the ones that have single tone.

There are later made 3700LQAUS, etc. where only the top 4 keys are programmable. But this one here is 3700HAD, so it should have German labeled doubleshots, but it was a custom order caps.
