IC
Seller has 150 in varying conditions. Expect most to look like these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/141255156447
Please fill out simple form:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1V2ZUeo3eT5Xh4LoiXAaEVxc2----cx6cqLLk6u5uZVM/viewform?usp=send_form
Keep in mind the Control, alt, win, menu, and spacebar are not compatible with regular MX boards. However tinlong's Moogle set will take care of that: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=56588.0

On 4/20 I will contact the seller with the average price people are willing to pay and secure a deal
-
In for one.
-
In for 1 of these. Not much to lose!
-
In for 1. Will pay a little extra if I can get a set of keycaps with no shine.

I doubt the seller has any with no shine, and expect them to be worth significantly more (not just a "little extra"). Last time I got NIB cherry doubleshot keyboards they were almost $100

Well, the seller says : They are used but in great shape, in general they look brand new. So I guess there's a chance there are some with minimal shine.
-
ok, me in for $30/board as mentioned on Pacifist's other thread.
-
Filled the form :)

Its not uncommon boards like this. Or the MY boards with the 1800 layout nib for like $60 on eBay. Just got one a few weeks ago. Just saying.

Could take caps from 2 or 3 if price is right and shipping is reasonable :thumb:
-
Who will handle shipping and if people say they are in at $30 does that mean that will be the cost shipped to them?
Will the sets be graded on shininess and what will determine who gets shinier sets versus better looking sets?
Is there any guarantee that the referenced moogle will ever get made?

I will do shipping and find proxies for EU and whatnot. The amount people are willing to pay is a baseline to get a good estimate of what to offer the seller. I will try to get as low as I can, but having this kind of reference point is good.
Sets will be split into two categories once I get them: Shiny and not shiny. If you want to get not shiny, there will be a slight difference in price as an add on invoice to make everything fair. It will be a first come first serve option in the initial GB form, once I get the boards and asses condition invoices will be sent out for the better condition ones.
Tinnie is pretty enthusiastic about making his moogle set, so theres a pretty good chance that it will be made.

If we buy them at the rate this auction is going: http://www.ebay.com/itm/141255156447
It would be around $15 a board for shiny ones. I will now message the seller with an updated offer
-
Another great update: I won this auction: http://www.ebay.com/itm/181381318456 for the really good condition boards. I will make a form for these. Pricing will most likely be around $30-$35 for great condition doubleshots sans shipping

There isn't any shiny board? right? All is not shiny?

For the current GB, supposedly no shine. They seem either not used or used for a very short period of time.
For this IC, most will have some sort of shine but probably a select few will not. If you want no shine, best chance to get a set is from the current GB.
-
Seller has responded and its $20 a board plus shipping (which should be $65 for every 20 boards). Everybody but 5 are willing to pay that amount from the IC form. If people are still interested at $25 a set (which is what this will be around after shipping and stripping boards and whatnot) please say so in this thread
-
update: seller looks like will go down to $15 per board. Also they have some g80's with lasered POM and clears for $15
-
So if they go $15 a board, how much will you be selling them for?

that plus the time it takes to take off the caps, which is around 20 mins a board, plus shipping costs to me
honestly im tired of doubleshots now and if there was a source of 100+ dyesubs I'd do that, but not for anything else.
if somebody wants to run this instead of me, just hit me up with a pm
-
$20/20 min of work sounds about right. $35 a set should be doable.
