Never really liked the layout of these boards (the arrows irk my OCD side) but I find myself oddly wanting to get one of these really badly!

Am I right in saying older ones would probably be higher quality as well as cheaper?

I'd settle for just the case :P

But really I wouldn't mind having a clear mx one.

This is pretty cool if you're willing to dish out $220+ for a limited-edition collectible Cherry keyboard. Other than the novelty/collectible factor, it's not worth paying the RealForce price tag for Cherry switches.

This reminds me of when a pair of Jordans are placed in a briefcase. Does the idea of placing something in a shiny box and calling it limited really make it more appealing? I think ivan's G80-1861HAU Goupil to be more enticing.

My boss (played by Robert Dinero) - "Dansor, you are the only developer that can fix this bug!  Please do it on my computer so I can see you work your magic."

Me (played by me) - "I can do that.  Give me one moment."

--returns shortly dressed in an all-black suit and sunglasses.  Sets black briefcase on desk in front of him, unsnaps the latches, and opens it to reveal an awesome keyboard.

--  Plugs keyboard into computer.

-- Without looking up, says "I can do this, but you are going to need to to follow my instructions precisely.  Now, I will need two jugs of milk and some cookies.  Let's get to work.

End scene

Quote from: Taobao
CHERRY written before buying: If you have the intention to buy CHERRY product, you must first understand the history and culture CHERRY, do not take X snake, X ducks and other physical appearance and CHERRY for comparison, does not make sense. CHERRY is a 60-year-old veteran enterprises, but also the world's first mechanical keyboard manufacturers, such as we are familiar with the G80-3000 series, back in the 1980s it has been put into marketing. And you get the hand feel is a culture, a retro atmosphere, rather than the low end of the so-called simple, but do not need colorful cottage lights, no pull-style shape, only understand people will understand what is internal, What is the German technology, the German concept. For instance you can understand the next PCB circuit board and the shell material, Cap material, laser carving techniques, such as injection molding traces of the original, it is a wild beauty, pristine beauty. When you lay a hand on a chair, if it has to feel that way? So, why need the original mechanical overall feeling instead we need to touch the now popular culture it is no key, if your Apple MAC AIR IPHONE modern technology or embedded in a thick stream online mechanical axis will not it will be very embarrassing? Their blind pursuit to follow suit, as the first solution a cultural thing, right, welcome into clicking CHERRY world !

I don't know about you but I want some cottage lights!

that case is pretty sweet and i'd love to get one, but once you add another ~$30 for shipping, that really makes it cost quite a bit at approximately $250

I'm curious if this means they are just stopping with the production of the g80-1865 model or all g80-18xx in general. As there are plenty of new g80-1867's out there in South Korea of there of every switch type.

If you just want brown switches you can get a g80-1865LXNEU-2 for $130 shipped in the US. this would be with US legends
If you want any other switch type, they are all available on ebay right now  for ~$150 shipped to the US as g80-1867 models. these are US+Hangul legends

so that basically makes the cost of the case be $100  :o

Well, I don't really understand what is being offered.  But I want that padded case.  Even thought the photo says "made in Germany", I'm assuming these will be made in China.  Also they will have lasered ABS keycaps, I think?  But if it's lasered POM, and you get that padded case, I might be very interested in getting one with MX Clear switches.

I don't think they will discontinue G80-186X. But then again ZF seem to like to cut away things for the bottom line, and not care about keeping up with market demand. It's only that they make some limited quantities in other switch for Asia market again. It's not the first time Asia market get special Chery products, or at least get them first like the 3800/3850. For rest of world 1865 have only been available in brown switch for several years. Just like limited with reds before few years ago was Asia only, nothing new.
