This might just go for under $50 including shipping since it is missing the f1 cap.

Currently 27 Dollars with 10 dollar shipping.

I was able to grab one of these off of ebay for 41 dollars on new-years eve.

Good keyboard if you don't mind the odd enter button and right shift.

mind telling what's so great about steel series? their layout is weird.

I've heard of steelseries fans but surely they're no better than Filcos or Duckys or Deck?

Nothing's great about steelseries. The keyboard is good, but nothing special.

I think it's far less 'gamer' than most gaming keyboards. It looks pretty minimalist and has no over-the-top features. Sort of like a filco in many ways.

At this price its not really worth it. Used blacks usually go for 20 cents each, with 104 switches its $21 in switches. And the caps are really weird so its $10 tops for the caps. Not really worth your time, you'd get more buying old cherry boards for parts
