I'd say the price is fairly decent. I would like to pick up one of these for keys, but I have no money.

One seems to be PS2, while the other is some other interface. Caps are identical, if that's what you're wondering.

HDU is big PS/2(AT/DIN/5pin), HSU is PS/2.

I would get it, think of it like a GMK classic set for $45.

This biege set is pretty close to the price of the usual WoB set. That's a good price in my book, it's worth just keeping even if you don't have any use for it at the moment :p

I actually prefer new Cherry Doubleshot ABS over my BSP dyesub set.  Both are nice, but Cherry doubleshots are nothing to scoff at.

I'm getting a DE cherry dyesub set from a g81-3000SAU. From what i've heard (esp from phototek) is OG cherry dyesub is nothing like BSP and way better

Cherry dyesubs > new GMK doubleshots > shiny Cherry doubleshots. Altough it's quite subjective... you might like the texture on Cherry/GMK doubleshots more than the dyesub texture.

Is this thing new? I'm tempted to snag it but would still need a moogle which is a pain these days. I guess just better to wait for someone else to do a classic beige GMK buy.

Too bad its not MX I would be all over it.

No, it isn't new. However, all keys are MX compatible.

I understand that but too many keys that don't fit a standard layout.

Wasn't someone going to do a GB for the missing keys...  :-*

Price was about right if they are in condition appear in photos for market value I think. Not rare, but they have not been as easy to grab on ebay and etc lately.
