Title: Filco Zero Series Tenkeyless (B-Stock)?

if google translate is not mistaken, these are likely pics of the blemished ("wounded") B-Stock that are being offered at elitekeyboards.com

looks like someone opened them up. could be nice for an SGI Granite ALPS transplant.

If anyone is interested, I picked up a pair of these "B stock" Filco Zero tenkeyless for modding purposes, and the blemishing is exceedingly negligible.

One keyboard looks effectively pristine, and the other is close enough that if it came new this way, I wouldn't have blinked.

YMMV, but here's n=2.
