Title: G81-1800; 50 shipped.

NOTE this is a G81, not G80.

However, I know some of you guys out there are nuts about the G80-1800 and like modding it. If you need parts or keycaps, this might be pretty useful.

Isn't really a great value, but model 1800s don't come up often enough...

That's a terrible price for a terrible keyboard. Bad switches, bad keycaps (lasered)..

Yeah I'm inclined to agree, the only real value in G81/G83 stuff is the double shot and dye sub caps.

I would only buy G81 things for the doubleshot keycaps...

Agree with all of you. If you don't need it for parts, thread locked!
