sorry bud been super busy ill get good pics by wednesday night family emergency came up went out of town

I do apologize Das as I think I will buy the EK one instead since it's on sale and is brand new. I would have purchased yours for if only I have seen the images of the keycaps sooner than the 30th which is when EK started the sale.

Yeah ^_^I guess i have an obsession with brand new items. I would rather pay the extra 35 usd if thast means the item I'm getting isnt 2.5-3 years old

Just because EK is selling it as 'new' doesn't mean it isn't 2.5-3 years old.

People have gotten 'new' as it never used HHKB's that were dated a few years before the actual purchase was made.

ray, let him convince himself buying from EK is a smart choice.

Why are you guys trolling a fellow topre lover? EK IS a good choice if you want a brand new one. They can replace it without hassle on your part, or replace parts, etc, etc.
It would be a bit more work on your end to do those things yourself. But it's YOUR money, do what you want with it. :)

From what he told me, he's going to 55g mod it anyways, so he'll be voiding the warranty from the get go. Might as well buy used. I have nothing against EK, and I've gotten both of my Topre boards from there, but if you're planning on modding, just cut out the middleman and save some cash.

I do understand that just because it is new does not mean that it was just recently made although it does ensure that it hasn't been used before. IMO buying a 3 yearold new unused keyboard is worth the extra 35 usd compared to a used keyboard of the same production date.

buying a hhkb in the first place is expensive
what is 30 bucks to have it entirely new

In that case, I have a 55g RF with purple silent sliders I will be putting up for sale if you're interested in that :)

dude just say you just want to buy new.

Post by: Synjin on Sat, 01 November 2014, 14:12:59
My original plan was to buy it used since the price difference was higher prior to the EK sale, although, I do prefer new especially when the premium isn't too high.

Just because I have an obsession doesnt mean i will pay up the butt if it is more cost efficient for me to get it used.

If someone was to sell a used poker for 90usd I would much rather pay 107usd for it from MK.com brand new but if the brand new price for it was 130 then I would obviously chose the used 90usd.

im just giving you ****. dont get why you keep coming up with excuses trying to convince us and yourself when you just want something new instead of used. pretty simple

hes not making excuses wtf are you going on about lol

used is attractive when their is a discount involved.
30 bucks off a 80 dollar keyboard would be a great deal

200 used vs 230 new is not that great a deal

????

why not buy new?

Ik. Its still my money which I can spend on what I want any ways. I do apologize if you are having hard time understanding what I am saying since since English isn't my first language therefore giving me a harder time trying to express what I am thinking of.

Just reminding everyone that this is a classifieds thread. If you want to communicate further, it can be done in the keyboards forum or privately.
