Title: Pretty happy with todays purchase
Post by: Seize on Wed, 28 August 2013, 23:08:12
I'm currently on a trip to taiwan and asked my friends to take me out, having some spare money left i remembered Ducky is a Taiwanese brand so after searching everywhere for it i have finally finally found the tenkeyless 9087 shine 2 cherry mx browns with purple Led's for only 2400 TWD which works out to be around £50?
 Played on it well just testing and i can say its gonna be the best keyboard ive used and will take back to UK with me leaving the steelseries 7G and the Razerblackwidow 2013 in Hong Kong unless i decide to take it back to UK (which i highly doubt due to the amount of room i have in my luggage already) to sell on ebay.  ;D ;D

If you have the time can you not harvest the switches from your other 2 boards?  They are the only valuable pieces anyway really.

I only say that because the Keyboards arn't worth much here, although maybe a bit more on eBay. Also I was thinking space wise, switches take up less space in luggage.

Ahhh man sorry bro i didnt quite check out the other keyboards it was a local store in the computer area in Taiwan, because when i got there i played on all the razer and CM keyboards, tried out all sorts of different cherry mx's uncluding green white and grey? It was on this cherry mx tester  and then I saw the shine 2 which was the point where my eyes lit up and i didn't quite notice anything else except the shine 2 hahahahaa :D

Or hey, sell them to someone here before you go back? May be able to get a quick sale, then ship before you head out.
