Title: [IC] ALPSulators!
Post by: kmiller8 on Sun, 08 December 2013, 18:52:29
amazon.co.jp has a few alpsulators for ~$20

I don't want to proxy just one, so I figured I'd ask if people are interested in doing a "faux-GB" of sorts OuO

Here's a video proving they're probably ALPS


Also crunching numbers, it should range somewhere from $35-$28 to ship to me

Only red color. They are deffinitely alps, but when I owned one of these previously I really didn't like it. Not sure what alps they are, but they were recently linked on the mechanical keyboards subreddit. The way it works when you connect it to a computer is not like how a numberpad attached to a computer normally works. It is also really loud when you type on it. You can however mod it to be a different alps switch if you want to.

I plan to mod matias quiet in it and use it every day.

How does the computer attaching work?

yeah, it's like 15 dollars for small box priority. after it's all said and done you'll be paying more for shipping than the actual item.

Ok, just ordered a few of them, someone else needed some stuff proxied from Japan and contacted me about it, will be putting extras up for sale when I get them :thumb:

Edit, some finalized early number crunching puts it right around $30 + shipping for each.
