I don't normally post SSKs, since they usually get bid to ridiculous levels in the last few seconds making them non-great finds.

However, this has very collectible keycaps. GREEN sublegends and all kinds of weird symbols!

Interesting, I have one from the exact same date, same part no and same pit no. But mine doesn't have that green sublegends.

I have a set of these airline reservation keycaps. I use them at work and they are pretty nice!

Since there is no embedded numberpad, I wonder if they bought the spare set from clickykeyboards.

Ended at $316.79 + $15 shipping.

Hmm...is it possible that this is just a normal SSK with those airline keycaps? This was the SSK model that tinlong was selling a while ago on DT.

That it is my friend  8) .  There are always those that think swapping out caps will get them a higher price, and YES it has worked perfectly.
