Title: [IC] Poker 2/GH60 transparent case China proxy
Post by: fart_toast on Sat, 14 December 2013, 05:51:00: Hi guys,

I saw these come up on reddit

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.47.bZli6Y&id=35657631762

This site only sells to China.

Would Qtan be the best bet to see if he could act as a proxy?

I think I would probably have to get others interested to make it worth his time?

Cheers,

Fart_toast

What options are there for this?

Post by: fart_toast on Sat, 14 December 2013, 07:00:38: FYI I saw them on this post

http://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/1ssamh/photos_tired_of_poker_posts_well_heres_another_my/

I've asked QTAN if he could be a proxy (as the website is a Chinese equivalent to Ebay and only ships to China) and am waiting a response. I'm seeing if there is interest with other members of the forum as he may only do it if there's enough people interested!

The options translated from the site I linked originally are (from left to right), red and white, white and transparent and fully transparent.

Post by: riotonthebay on Sat, 14 December 2013, 08:30:02: Depending on how close to that $18 mark we can get after shipping + proxy fees, I might be interested…

Looks suspiciously incompatible with pure pro

Post by: redeye on Sun, 15 December 2013, 16:58:15: This looks very interesting. I got green LEDs on my board so this case could have a great effect.

Post by: JonasDK on Mon, 16 December 2013, 09:14:54: Any idea if the plate from the GH60 would fit?

Post by: LechnerDE on Tue, 17 December 2013, 07:21:45: This case looks really good!

I will buy at least one. If it's also compatible with the GH 60 probably more :p

Post by: fart_toast on Fri, 10 January 2014, 14:34:18: None of the three proxies have replied in all this time. I got a Bhiner quote (a company which proxy taobao) but they can't give me a shipping estimate until i've bought the item. Re-thinking how much I want this.
